J.Crew Now Available at Net-A-Porter

"Thanks!" to Manda, who let us know that J.Crew is finally available at Net-A-Porter (click here to shop online).

First impressions: not impressed. The layout (both in the main page and item page) looks bland to me. There are some positives though... (1) At least when you roll-over the clothing item on the main page, the site shows you an outfit with it. (2) The item page probably shows a more realistic image of what the item looks like.

Also the prices seem to have slightly rounded up. For example, the Suckered Gingham Shirt (Item 26238; $69.50) jumped fifty cents at the Net-a-Porter site Gingham Button-Down Shirt (Code 100215; $70.00). I am actually pleasantly surprised that the increase was so minimal, I honestly expected more. Also changed, the catchy product names and lavish descriptions. ;)

Lastly, I expected to see more merchandise available. So far I just see tops. Not sure why that is. Maybe it's because I am in the States? Maybe because more stuff is arriving online in the next few weeks?

What are your thoughts on the arrival at Net-a-Porter? Will you shop J.Crew via Net-A-Porter? Are there any pieces you are interested in?
