J Crew Lace Skirt

I ordered a few items on Wednesday from the new arrivals but I’m such a visual and touchy-feely shopper I had to go into the store and see some of them. One item that caught my eye was this Scalloped Lace A-Line Skirt in Navy. I was bemoaning to my VPS about the Collection Wool-Silk A-Line Skirt in Navy being almost sold out. Then I looked down to the lower shelves and saw this Lace skirt hanging. My VPS found a 6 and 8 for me and I went back into the fitting room to try it on.

It’s a Navy lace over-lay with a thin Black Tulle lining and then Black Poly lining. It has an A-Line shape and hits just above the knee. I tried on the size 6 and it was a great fit. To be sure, I tucked in the shirt I was wearing to see if I would still be comfortable, and I was.

This is not currently online. The Style # is 02825 and is $148.00.

This is such a beautiful skirt and I think it will be very versatile dressed up or down. I’m thinking all the Embellished Sweatshirts I’ve purchased with black tights and boots. I also see it with the Swoop Top in Brown and my Printed Etta’s. And I think it will be great paired with the Schoolboy Blazer in English Tweed
What do you think of this Lace Skirt? I have some trips coming up in October and this skirt will definitely be in my luggage.

    Oh, that is gorgeous! I've been looking for a navy skirt, and while I could also use a plain one, this would be great too.

      FriendlyFemme – Thanks! I've been wanting a non-lace pencil skirt for a while. So glad this was in the store.

    Very pretty and looks great on you! Unfortunately, it would be too short for me.

      Thanks Rose! Maybe with dark tights the length wouldn't be too noticeable?

    Do you know if this will be a future release, or an in-store-only?

      LilyBart – I have no idea if this is in-store only or will show up online in the next few weeks.

    That skirt really caught my eye in the store yesterday as well. But, I have no need for a fancy pants skirt at the moment. You rock it, girl.

      Thanks Susan! This skirt did fill a void of lace or lack thereof in my closet.

      BTW – Just perused your blog and Love it! There are some recipes I am definitely going to try!

      Awes. Thank you. I love blogging, but I'm tragically slow at it. Hoping to have a new one this week!

    gorgeous skirt, Audreybella! I love it on you – I think it will be a great dress-up/dress-down piece. It would look great with a denim jacket and flat boots, too.

    SO GORGEOUS! And not that I am surprised, but it looks amazing on you. I want *pouts* but it would be scandalously short on me. Wear it well for all of us tall ladies, Audreybella!

    That looks great on you!
