I’ve been struggling with what I really want to buy during this 30% off promo at J Crew. I have been lusting over the Wool Origami Sheath Dress since it first popped up online.
But I have also been eyeing the Heidi Dress in Prince of Wales Wool. The two-tone really intrigued me. Online says it’s catalog and online only but my store had it along with the Wool Flannel.
So I decided to go to the store to try on the Heidi Dress. There are some new SAs and Personal Shoppers and there’s one girl who is so helpful. Each time I’ve been in and given her something to start a fitting room I find several outfits when I arrive, accessories included. Most of the time I’m not interested in the extra stuff due to time constraints and they are just not my style but I really appreciate the effort.
Anyway, I tried on the Heidi in a 6 and 8. The 6 was a perfect fit and the 8 was a little looser but still a good fit. The PS also brought me the Super 120s Petale’ Dress in Black. It was $49.99 in-store, plus the 30% off. I tried the 6 and it fit great. I didn’t even bother with the 8. It’s a shift dress with and I had the PS bring a belt. It totally change the shape of the dress. I loved it.
So here are the IRLs of the two dresses along with a few other things I bought online last week with the 25% off.

I hope the pics helped if you’re still deciding on any items.
Have a great evening.
I had already decided on the Golden Bubbles skirt and ordered it tonight. I was very surprised at the heavy weight fabric, but it was just so beautiful! You look great in the grey skirt too!
Thank you so much for trying on the items for us!
You will love the Bubbles skirt. The SA today was wearing it with a Bronzed Olive cardigan and brown boots.
Love all your "GETS!"
I enjoy reading a lot and your stories are worth reading, nice blog, keep it up. Being a new blogger, I would like to tell you that you have given me much knowledge about it. Thanks for everything.
I ordered the Golden Bubbles skirt, too! I can't wait to get it, I think it'll be great for Christmas.
I also purchased the Buona Notte bag during the 25% off promo, I just love it! Although, I altered mine a bit… I cut off the metal discs, and the sheer ribbon, and only left on the grosgrain ribbon. I received so many compliments on the bag last night, celebrating Christmas with my friends. 🙂
All those items look great on you, Audrey! I loved the golden bubbles skirt as well!
You rock every last one of those dresses, and i love the bag.
Good picks. They all look good on you. I went to a 2 in the petale. I'll be seam ripping those petals off.
Love that white pencil skirt…the texture seems so lush.
