My J.Crew store recently added a Crewcuts section. I have no little ones that fit in Crewcuts but my friends do. I can’t really see myself buying, or them accepting, a $40-50 tee when Factory, Target and Old Navy have cheaper ones they will get dirty and outgrow in months.
The section does have some really super cute tees and sweaters and I wish I could fit into the Girl’s size 16 but it’s still too small. I can fit into the Boy’s larger sizing and tried something on last week.
~ Skiing Yeti Crewneck Sweater, Boy’s size 14 ~
I grabbed this on my way to the fitting room not expecting to get it over my head. Not only did my head fit, the sweater did too. It’s form-fitting in the size 14 so I could size to a 16 for a little looser fit. I normally wear a Medium/size 8 in tops. The length hits at my hips and isn’t cropped like I expected. I like the Yeti though he looks a little too angry. I can only assume it’s because he was forced to the Bunny Slopes.
Here’s what I would pick from the Boys’ Crewcuts section now. I love Star Wars and am so geeked out about the new movie. I suppose these would be good to get for the nephews as well. That Thomas Mason Flannel Shirt is one I’d love to try on in a size 16.
I recently bought a few things from both the Boys and Girls section over the years – Boys sweaters can be cute. I recently bought the polar bear sweatshirt, which I think will be cute for casual holiday activities. Apparently it glows in the dark, which my nephew will love. I typically take an XS so the Boys 12 works for me. I also just bought the Girls mixed plaid coat – love! I got a 16 and it's perfect.
