I visited the new Madewell store in Farmington, CT this Sunday and walked away feeling "meh" about the store. However, an event like this would totally make me feel excited about re-visiting it. I am totally curious about what "vintage finds" they picked out too! :)
What are your thoughts on this event? Do you think this is a good marketing tool by J.Crew? Do you plan on attending the event? If so , please share! :)
I love the Brooklyn Flea so I'm kind of intrigued but I am just not in love with Madewell's summer stuff. A lot of near misses.
ReplyDeletei'm so jealous! i love vintage finds...too bad i'm not in new york :(
ReplyDeleteIt seems silly to have that at the store in SoHo, when going to the actual Brooklyn Flea is not that far away. I would just go to Brooklyn....
ReplyDeleteSo...Madewell buys stuff from the flea market and resells it in their stores with a mark-up. I think it would be more fun to go to a flea market and find the cool stuff myself, which is half the fun anyway. Whatever...
ReplyDeleteI agree with courtney_joy and SallyO! Also, I feel I have gotten "burned" by Madewell in the past when they send emails advertising their start of a "big sale" and then I've gone to the store to find the same small sale section as before their "big sale". So, I don't trust that this event will be that great. I suppose this is mainly for Manhattan-ers who can't bring themselves to take the "journey" to Brooklyn and dig through the flea stuff themselves - too much work. ; )
