J. Crew & factory haul

J. Crew does not have its promo regularly enough. So when they had the 30% off sale prices a couple of weeks ago, had to take advantage and got a few things.

It was very hot a few weeks ago and I realized I didn't have enough shorts. Shorts which are work-appropriate. Also  picked up a pair of ankle toothpick denim.

Coach Dora flats

I have tried on the ankle stretch toothpick in store a couple of times, just to make sure I'm happy with the size and fit. However, I did not pay close enough attention to the actual color. On the website, neon persimmon looks more like a pale pink which I want. But in reality, it is more of a peachy color, which I can live with, not 100% thrilled though.

In this picture, the peach color really pops.

Here is a close up of the Madewell tee. I love the waterdot pattern on the front. Subtle enough but add details to a plain pink regular tee. The fabric is very silky and soft. Love it!

J. Crew factory classic bermuda short in white (size 6)

I was debating on whether to get the bermuda shorts in my regular size 4 or 6. But thought since it is white and if it fits small, I would be in trouble. Size up to 6 and it is big. I would have to wear a belt with it and tuck my top in (which  I rarely tuck in my top).

On the website, it says low rise but it sits ok on the waistline. I hate wearing low-risers, especially shorts. The fabric is a medium-weight cotton, not too sheer and not too thick for the summer.

J Crew factory printed bermuda shorts in size 4

Same bermuda shorts but in printed pattern. I went with the size 4 with this one and so glad I did. Pattern is very nice and the fabric is thicker than the white bermuda shorts.

So here is my haul from J. Crew and factory. Yes, I got a bikini top too. The reason for that is they offer free shipping for all swimwear. This bikini top was on sale for around $15 and since all Canadian orders charge $9.95 for shipping, I might as well threw this top in to quality for free shipping (oh, well, paid another $5 for the top basically)

After I placed this order, I just realized I bought all bottoms ( bikini top doesn't count) which is very rare for me. Another order on its way too with all tops, just to balance my purchase haha!!
