I have clearly been drinking WAY too much Crewlade lately!!! It <i>is</i> a light version of citron... but still. It was the buttons. They had me at hello. <br /><br />Agree with goldenmeans on bright flame. I had the Suzannah cami in that color. Never found a time or place to wear that one; it was just too darn bright.J.CrewJDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07464373354705821248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-23737438185204074582009-06-30T12:33:02.114-04:002009-06-30T12:33:02.114-04:00Hi, everyone!

Citron and Dark Mushroom are battling it out for least favorite hue...who will win? I have a shirt that has both colors...very telling!!! :)<br /><br />Dad...you crack me up. The brown flip-flops comment seems appropriate what with you being from Arlington. "What's with all these dudes wearing brown flip-flops?"

I don't recall any outfit you wear, or wore even as a kid, in which anyone would think you were fashion-blind. ;)<br /><br />I never cared for browns, and the mushroom color is fine for my salads, but not one I like as fashion. <br /><br />Love,<br /><br />DadJerry Gideonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01383297627065856905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-85140655530686390862009-06-30T00:03:04.822-04:002009-06-30T00:03:04.822-04:00Hi Dina!

Seriously, a weathered stone jackie? I had to put my foot down. Maybe I'm just jealous of all the lovely ladies who can pull this off. ;) It definitely does not flatter me.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04756250603348830267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-63272388062041369562009-06-29T16:03:30.464-04:002009-06-29T16:03:30.464-04:00I picked blush/ any other pale pink color.

It is a lovely color, really, but just not on me.

I personally like the shade that dark mushroom became but yuck, what a name. <br /><br />That is so funny about the bright flame becoming orange. True, true, true. :)<br /><br />Oh, I should have put guava on the list simply because J. Crew's guava in the silk is BRIGHT, almost lighting up the room in the middle of the night bright...not the soft, muted color it appears as in the catalog.
