J Crew New Arrivals...Spring 2012

I haven't taken advantage of any of the J Crew-palooza promos since Cyber-Monday. But with today's 30% off online and in-store I decided to stop in and make an exchange and see what new arrivals there might be. There were some bright new items for the Spring 2012 Collection. I was really excited to see new colors of the Tippi sweater. You'll see three of them below. I tried my best to capture the truest color of everything but without the right light it was a little difficult.

Tippi Sweater - #46725, SGR (something Green), M, $72.50 - Love this color! I couldn't pass up the 30% off so this one came home with me.

Truer to the real color

Tippi Sweater - #46725, NAZ(Neon Azalea), M, $72.50 - This is a great color too and not as bright as the Blythe in this color.

Floral Perfect Shirt - #60715, BBL, 8, $88, 57% Cotton/43% Silk - The texture reminds me of the Rose Vines Perfect Shirt. I do like it with the Neon Azalea Tipp and it looks good with the other Tippi below.

Jules Dress in Floral - #61607, BBL, 6, $188, 100% Silk/100% Acetate Lining - On the hanger this print is a lot to take in. But once you get it on it's not so bad. I love that it's 100% Silk.

Stripe Sweater Dress - I tried this on here and this one is the size Small. I decided to exchange the original Medium for the Small. It fits better and will probably stretch a bit.

Tippi Sweater -  #46725, LBL (something Blue, maybe Lagoon?), M, $72.50
Collection Striped Silk Tunic - #56512, FGR (something Gray), 8, $128 - This size was big on me but I didn't have the chance to try on the 6.
Ankle Toothpick Jean in Garment-Dyed Twill - #62443, LCI (Light Citron), 30 - These jeans are so comfortable and soft and bright! But they do show things you might not want shown (dimples and extra things and stuff). Not sure if the Blue Grotto will be the same. The Neon Persimmon looks like a good color too.

Such a pretty color for Spring!

Closest pic to the true color.

Stretch Perfect Shirt in Classic Stripe - # 44175, SUN (Sunflower), 8 - I like it tone-on-tone with the jeans.

City Mini in Blackwatch Plaid- #62440, BLA (Blackwatch), 6 - This must have been just an in-store only release. Cute and there weren't many left in the store. But I was able to snag the Schoolboy Blazer in Blackwatch Tartan on sale plus the 30% off so I passed on the skirt.

What do you think of some of these Spring items? I am really liking the Tippi colors and you'll be seeing the green on me soon.
