J. Crew Silk Dervish Paisley Tunic

Last week I swung (again) by the store to pick up the No. 2 Pencil Skirt in Ultra Eyelet. I blogged about this skirt here before. New in the store was the Silk Dervish Paisley Tunic in both colours. I liked this top ever since it debuted on the website, so I took this opportunity to try it on. I am wearing size XS here, which is one size smaller than I normally take in tops. The colour is extremely bright -- the 'flame' description is correct. :) It has 2 buttons on the sleeve which can be visible in the view of the back on the website.

I liked the navy version just as much, and I envision either colour styled with a pair of pants (such as these or these) or a skirt (such as this or this).

J. Crew brick & mortar stores have a 30% off sale items currently. Some great deals are to be had, if you are shopping. Also word on the JCA blog is that the 30% off sale will start tomorrow with the online code SHOPNOW, which is yet to be confirmed.

Yesterday CC and I drove to Seattle (well, she drove this time) to JC and Madewell. We spent a lot more time in Madewell, which is offering 40% off their in-store sale items, currently, and snagged some jeans on super sale (item 39456), but more on that in a future post.

Some JC scores:
