J. Crew 5" chino shorts

Just got my extra 30% off sale package from J. Crew. I did not get a whole lot of items. Just 2 to be exact. I tried on the No.2 pencil skirt in deck stripe in the Toronto store a couple of weeks ago and have  fell in love with it. A lot of love has been given to the No.2 pencil skirts and this is my first No. 2 pencil skirt purchase. I picked the deck stripe pattern over the solid colors. Feel like it is less formal and I can wear it more often.

Today I wore my new 5" chino shorts paired with a vintage stripe tee. Perfect for hot summer days.


J. Crew vintage stripe cotton tee in size S (buy here)
J. Crew 5" chino shorts in size 4 (buy here)
Cole Haan sandals
Necklace from Mynamenecklace(buy here)



I really love the vintage stripe cotton tee. I have 4 of them and I wear them very often. Just love how soft the vintage cotton is. For hot summer days, it is perfect to pair them with shorts to run errands.




I love the color of this chino shorts. Very easy to pair with  any colored tops. I have not tried this on in stores before. I have the J. Crew factory Bermuda shorts and I have one in size 4 and one in size 6. I thought the chino shorts would fit similar so I took a chance of ordering a size 4. This fits slightly smaller. I wish I have ordered a size 6 instead but guess this will have to work as I have no intention of shipping it back for exchange.  I got this for $37.99 less 30% so really a great buy. 

Also included in my order are 2 20% off $150 orders on J. Crew.com promotion cards.  Will be so handy for new fall items.

    Hi, just want to say I like your blog. It's nice to have a Canadian perspective on shopping! I got the exact same shorts, same colour. Scored them for $11.24 in store because they had tons of summer stuff down to $14.99 with another 25%off. Best J.Crew deal I've had in ages. Anyway, thanks for all the reviews and keep 'em coming.
