"Thanks!" to many of you, including AnneG, Rosa, Jennifer, Marietta, Wille, Irina, Desert Flower, & Danielle, who shared with us the latest email from J.Crew to its card members.The email above features the not-yet-officially-released-online the Velvet Ruby Jacket (Item 29018; $168.00). J.Crew describes this velvet jacket as:
This jacket looks cute in the email above (both the image of the jacket alone & in the catalog image). Yet, it doesn't look that good in the image from the website. The website's image shows the jacket looking a bit short too. But that might be the way it was styled (with the very long button down). I got to see it in-person for final judgment.Our blazer meets cardigan—elegantly deconstructed and drapey, in buttery panne velvet with sheer blended silk georgette lining and trim for a modern mix of textures and vibes. The finishing touch? A removable grosgrain belt for waist definition and added dimension. Rayon/silk. Lapel collar. Hook-and-bar closure. Long sleeves. Welt pockets with flaps. Fully lined. Hits at hip. Import. Dry clean. Catalog/jcrew.com only.
On another note, this email (with a sneak peek to the August catalog) means that new arrivals and a new August catalog are just around the corner! :) Although, doesn't it feel like the last roll-out (in July) was just a short time ago?
