Dear J.Crew,
Why do I love you and hate you all at the same time? Why do I love your clothes so much but hate that I never have enough money to buy them? Why does everything look so amazing in your catalog and then look so horrible on me? And why, oh why did you not have the awesome selection of gray and chartreuse dresses about 6 months ago!!
Love,
Me
Ok so, I love the bridesmaid dresses we picked, they are easy, a bargain and unique. BUT I must say the dresses on J.Crew right now are seriously making me wish I had waited. SO CUTE. In reality though, I am not a risk taker. I never would have been able to wait until 4 months before the wedding to pick the bridesmaid's dresses and honestly, even if these dresses had existed 6 months ago I don't think I could ever ask any of my friend's to spend that much money, especially now that the economy is so horrible and one of the three has already been laid off.
But I can still oogle over them! So pretty. I would have picked these:
Any of these amazing colors would have worked with our scheme. I swear, sometimes I feel as though J.Crew and I could be soulmates. Ha, ha!

Ha! I've been wishing for an in at J. Crew so I can find out what they've got cooking.
Sometimes, I feel exactly the same way you do about J.Crew clothes. Everything looks so great on the models and in the catalogs, but when I try the items on me, things don't fit right and I look like a mess. I hate how some of the dresses are too long, and I am not a 6-foot tall model.
I am a little sad about my J Crew dress. It looked amazing on the model but it looks pretty frumpy on me. Hopefully after some seamstress magic it will be a hot little number (cross fingers).
I LOVE J. Crew. I have always wanted to pick my bridemaids' dresses from there(in different styles), but like you mentioned, J. Crew did not have the right colors until now - I actually had another dress picked out, but then luckily, when J. Crew came out with these dresses, none of my BMs had purchased their dresses yet, and it turns out they love the J. Crew dresses more. I only have 3n moths left til my wedding, but I'm so happy things turned out this way. Now I need to make sure the BMs order their dresses on time!
p.s. what I love eben ore about J Crew is their clearance. I bought a wedding gown I plan to wear after the reception for about $55 and another dress I plan to wear to the rehearsal for $35!!
I love the JCrew dresses. Abby at Style Me Pretty posted on them today and I'm just drooling. I'm hoping some go on sale...
shot a wedding this fall with the middle yellow one with pockets, pretty stinking CUTE!
