Dear Santa, I Need $468 to Buy All That I Covet From the New Roll-Out...

Aaah, yes. The J.Crew-Crack Habit Continues. Perhaps Santa can a help a girl out with that.

Newest Members to My Closet:

Darlings can I even say how much I love the check shirt in navy? It is charming and yes, tres popular this season. I wonder sometimes how much of the item I truly love and how much of my brain is trained to like it, a la Pavlov's Dog, from the marketing and styling gurus at J.Crew. Whatever the case may be, I was hooked and it had me at Hello. It's been purchased and is on its way.

I am envisioning styling with black denim and my mid-calf motorcycle boots, very similar to the Vintage Roadsters at J.Crew right now:

Also coming home to Momma is the new Le Bal d'Hiver tee. I thought it was different and very cute. & you can't go wrong with cream and black. & feathaz...

Now, for the Covetables.

I love the idea of a simple silk skirt. But for $98, not so simple anymore, eh? This skirt belongs somewhere near $49.99. When it hits someplace close to that, I'll be all over it. But for now, I covet. Because I want to wear it with my Bal d'Hiver tee, some black pointelle tights, and motorcycle boots.

Silk Flair Skirt, $98

Now I've been talking about coats and I really love this one. The minute I saw it I sighed and said, "Paris....." It is all the things I've been picky about and want and need in a coat. Ahem... 1) A little bit military inspired (the double breasted ness). 2) It is not boxy and still feminine. 3) It is not too short nor too long. & 4) It has some sort of interesting detail (the collar). J.Crew description even calls it Vintage Parisian inspired. It was meant to be. It must be mine but gaaaaahhhh, really J.Crew, $325?? Me thinks a 20% off email would be all the motivation I need for this, but the 20% off would be a requirement for me to even date this sucker and put it in my cart.

Double-Cloth Ingenue Coat, $325

It's also very swoon-worthy in the Dusty Blossom color, though me thinks pink in Paris may seem a little, well, Un-Paris like. But it's a gorgeous color and it shows off the coat's features so nicely in this shade. I can realistically afford only 1, especially $325, and in that case I would buy it in black. But that doesn't mean I can't stare at the pink one and just wish I could rock the pink one, too.

Now here's a simple tee I overlooked my first go-round but I think would be cute for the holidays layered in some way. I am loving and I mean loving those whimsically, sparkly, gold antlers! They say "Holiday" in a great subtle way and are perfectly serene on the background color of the tee. I couldn't get both Le Bal d'Hiver and this tee, but when this puppy goes $29.99, it'll be on like Donkey Kong.

Beaded Antler Tissue Tee, $45

Again, I'm kind of still catching my breath over prices. I'm excited the holiday roll-outs are starting. It always puts me in a festive mood!

Did you pick out anything from the new roll-out? Is anything on your wish list?
