J. Crew presented their fall collection last week, and everything looks gorgeous, old-fashioned and tomboy-ish. I love the burnt reds and mustard yellows, and the knee-high socks paired with winter shorts are so laid-back and sexy. What do you guys think? xo
wow great i have read many articles about this topic and everytime i learn something new i dont think it will ever stop always new info , Thanks for all of your hard work!
Wow, there is so much effective info above!
I like the skirts in the spring more than these from the fall, but these aren’t bad either. Banana Republic has many good options this season as well.
Love, love love it! Jcrew has totally begun to take fashion seriously and announce their creative inspirations etc. Sooo great! Check out my good blog about my life as an expat in France!

J.Crew just keeps raising the bar. I think there will be a lot more fashionista wearing their pieces thanks to this collection. I already have my eye on the tweeds.
I love jcrew but I am not loving the direction of the catalogs lately. The models look unhappy which is very different from their usual feel.
I think I am in love. This looks awesome and am now super excited for Fall shopping.
Wow, go J. Crew!!
mmm…. JCrew warms the soul :)
luv the car coat
GORGEOUS.. the colors are just sooo wonderful…
I’m happy to see tights are here to stay :-) I’d like to try a pair under some cut off denim shorts…
Also not tired of over-the-knee socks and women’s oxfords!
Thanks for the sneak peak.
I’m slightly in love with this… which is odd because I’m not normally fond of brown!
LOVE the jackets. Need the jackets!
While I am not even ready to think about fall yet, I was excited to see this post. J. Crew has been my go to wardrobe staple since college. It is still classic yet a bit edgy. I love the color palette and fabrics that they have chosen. Just not sure about those vests.
It’s Dickens/Oliver ick. Outside a fashion shoot very little is wearable. they can try as much as they want to try winter shorts: they were tacky in the 1970s & they’re tacky now. Sorry.
I am not a fan of j.crew. For all their recent push away from clean lines and into intricate detailing the past few years, I still think jcrew pieces come off as unimaginative and standard. When I see a jcrew piece, I *know* it’s a jcrew piece, and I’m not talking about the positive aspect of branding, either.
Jcrew’s clothes look to me as though an unadventurous, self-proclaimed fashionista woke up one day and declared “I want to be a hipster!”
i just love j.crew!
so classy!
no famine of beauty here…
the muted, less-saturated palette combined with pops of rust, mustard and army green remind me of max’s photos!
speaking of max, josh and i loved our engagement session with him & margaux. (discovered max via your blog over a year ago.) we’re not a camera friendly couple, but max totally made things work. thanks a bunch, joanna :-D
i like it! I think of english cottages and horses :)
I am loving it so, so much it’s hard not to emotionally bypass summer! The collection is brilliant. The colors, fabrics, everything. Brilliant!
I’ve always had a thing for jcrew and this collection doesn’t disappoint.
Hiring that lady was the best thing the Crew ever did. They just keep killin’ it with every collection! LOVE!
LOVE! So edgy and fun.
I hate that J. Crew gets the “cougar moms or sorority girls only” wrap at lot of the time. Not only the cardigans are amazing! :)
Pretty cute stuff! But isn’t it nuts how they conceptualize their seasons more than a year in advance? I got to tour their design studios (fellow journalist here) and they actually begin planning future seasons’ clothes 18 months in advance!
the first photo looks like a pride of lions!
Wow I am actually pleasantly surprised that J Crew is going with a more edgy look this season. Very excited by this styling.
I really do love J Crew and they’re aesthetic but I think the
Grey Gardens look is wearing thin.
I’m so obsessed with the JCrew fall collection. I want everything!
Holy crap FALL collection! I’ve just come to terms with the fact that it’s no longer February! GAH!
Jcrew is the best. Simple, clean & classic! I wore one of their dresses for my wedding too :). This fall line is delicious.
so thirties and stylish!
Does anyone else think this photo shoot looks like a sad production of Our Town? Just put a little fake dirt on their faces and you’re in a high school drama class!
this all looks so cozy and i love the color palette. i’m really excited that seattle is getting a madewell store too!
oh, kristin, i’m so glad you like them!!
i love those deep read tights. swoon!
It looks great.. really yummy :D !!
WOw! I am impressed, always thought J.Crew was a bit dull. Not anymore! By the way received the Lavender Fry sneakers and they are just perfect!
Drooooooooool. I love J.Crew a little too much for words.

This is why I love fall. All of the rich colors.
I love the hats. Love the tomboy-ness and the color palette. Just wondering if you have to lean on a chair or sit on a stool to pull it off? :)
Love it! Very old New England with a twist.
I am so in love with this. The faded charcoal backdrop they used in their shoot just sets off everything perfectly.
fall collection out already?! its not even summer…
but wow. its beautiful. fall will always be my favorite time of the year for fashion.
I think it’s spectacular!! I posted about the girl in the geek chic tortoise frames last week. Love what they’re doing with the piles of sparkly brooches too. Gorgeous!

I honestly believe J.Crew has evolved so much compared from a decade ago – simple and yet stylish and has edge to it. I love this post! Hand down J.Crew!
i have been completely and totally obsessing over it since i first saw it. the hair is beyond incredible.
perfect styling.

I love those. They have a vintage 1920’s feel to them!! I fear I might be developing a new addiction! xoxo
I adore these looks in theory, but I think any woman who wears any of these head-to-toe would be in danger of looking like they’re going to a costume party. I think perhaps the idea is to take elements of these individual looks and make them your own. I love the tights, knee-highs (even though I couldn’t pull them off in a million years) and tweed jackets. And those red lips!
Awesome! I am so happy to see that flower accents will still be hot in the fall. I hate when trends leave so quickly.
as excited as I am about the onset of spring, the delicious fall clothes make me swoony. Yes, D&D, plaid blanket capes for all!!
haha,” shut the front door.” D&D, i love that :)
Love it! As I always do. Every time someone asks me what I want on gift giving occasions I say “there is nothing on the J.Crew website that I don’t want!”. I think this particular collection supports that statement quite nicely!!
Now I’m looking forward to fall and spring hasn’t even really started yet!
Oh, and I forgot: a big “NO!” vote on the furry vest and jacket in the first photo. How many real women are going to be able to pull those looks off without being laughed at? I mean, really!
I think the styling is hideous! It looks like gypsy-clown-ragamuffin-chaos to me. With a splash of hobo!!
I am glad they’re getting away from all of the ruffly tops and jackets and back to being a little more inspired by the classics. I’m not loving the models’ hair overall… a bit too messy; maybe slightly toned down bedhead would be doable.
Now if they would just bring their prices down a smidge so I didn’t have to keep waiting for everything to go on sale plus an extra percent off!
Well I CAN tell you I didn’t thinK I was a big fan of jcrew but…………. Apparently, I am now. I love this.
Thanks for the post.
Love it.
For how affordable their clothing is I love the attention to detail, the way they style the pieces, and the overall touch of luxury. J.crew definitely has every part of the equation right season after season and they continue to get better.

OMG there’s not a bad look in the bunch. And I’m such a sucker for tweed and plaid…

J. Crew just keeps getting better and better. I’m not excited for fall, but these clothes are lovely.
shut the front door.
how do they always get it RIGHT?
i want to wear a plaid blanket as a cape now!!!
I’m just getting into spring fashion: apple green, lilac, coral! I can’t think about fall fashion now! All of this is totally unattractive to me because I’m so spring-focused. I’ll revisit it in August/September. :-)
I want everything. I remember how when I was in catholic school i hated wearing knee highs and skirts and now i can’t get enough of the knee high look and skirts. hahaha
Also the photoshoot reminds me of Fiddler on the Roof…
Seriously, they look like rejects from a stage play of “Oliver Twist.” So, I guess that’s a not-so-much from me.
*sigh* lovely as always!!! I want everything ;)
Fabulous outfits! J.Crew definitely jumped over its head with this collection!
Love all the looks but my favorite is the first one! :)
Stunning!!!! I wish they were just not so expensive!!
All the clothes are, as usual, beautiful! I think the styling really does it though. Reminds me of Alexa Chung for Madewell, no? Thank you for sharing!!
