If you are stopped by a J.Crew store this past weekend to see what's available (if anything!) in the SPRING sale, or to see some new SUMMER arrivals {sigh!} in person, maybe you might be willing to share that with us in this post. In particular, if you could share with us a few of the noteworthy items that are available, at what prices, and potential sizes the store is carrying (as well as the store location)- that would be fantastic!Also, please let us know if your local store was/ is carrying an additional percent off sale. Thanks in advance!!! :)
No trip for me this past weekend, but I'll probably head out sometime this week to see the new arrivals. Have a great day everyone! :)
ReplyDeleteSnagged a gray leather tote for $79.99 at the Short Hills, NJ B&M. Perfect work bag! I hope the black goes on sale soon, too.
ReplyDeleteGood morning JCAs!
ReplyDeleteThe following are some notes:
-
Vintage matchstick jean in vintage dark distress wash are on sale for $29.99
-Leather tote (two main pockets, one with snap, other with zipper) in grey (not available online) for $79.99

Hope this helps! :)
I finally found the metallic dot scarf for $29.99 and a Merino Boyfriend sweater in honey! :)
ReplyDeleteI finally got toa store and did damage at both the factory store and the regular one. A few items on sale. Naturally I made out like a bandit.
ReplyDeleteWithin 2 hours of being posted as "Jenna's picks"; and newly arrived; The "jeweled jardin" jacket was sold out in all sizes!!
ReplyDeleteBUMMER!!!!!!!
I am dying for it!!
What say you? Does that happen often?

I found the Alpansia Swiss Dot shirt in both black and white for $19.99 each! Yay!
ReplyDeleteAshley,
ReplyDeleteWhere did you find the Metallic Dot Scarf? Did they have more?
Thanks,
Irene
I had a few returns this past weekend and wanted to use that 10% off coupon I received the other day, so of course my PS had some looks waiting for me to try on....I bought a few things...most of them were from the sale section...good deals there. They had the merino boyfriend sweatshirt on sale for $29.99 (currently on website for full price @ $69.99). The little tin soldier blog has a cute look with this sweater and the lauren conrad skirt (snagged that for $20 bucks at Kohl's yesterday) that is similar to the jcrew's Tiered brique skirt (which was one of my return items!)
ReplyDeleteI also picked up some influences from jenna on oprah last week--purchased the Vintage bateau top, which she has been wearing a lot lately with the lieutenant jacket. Also picked up the linen silk pocket cardigan in white--I know I will not wear it anytime soon but I figured I should get it now since they only had 2 XS in the store. IF it goes on sale, I will definitely get an adjustment. Another jenna influence was the luxe terry un-sweatpan...I have grown to love many of jcrew's sweatpants and I can see myself wearing those sweatpants with heels--I feel like a lot of people wont get it, but to my surprise all of the XS were gone! I had to take the S--but I will be watching if it goes on sale online.
My big purchase was the Fenton/Fallon Carrington tassel necklace--couldn't pass up the combined discounts! Oh well, I loved and doubt it will go on sale anytime soon!
I also tried on some cargo pants that I will wait for to go on sale...overall great shopping experience with my PS....gave me plenty of ideas to mix and match things....
Irene,
ReplyDeleteI found it at the Natick, MA store. They might have some left. It's worth the call. hth!
Went to my B&M this past weekend, in search of new trousers. Got the linen gazebo trousers in flax. Super cute and reminiscent of classic J. Crew. I told my SA that she said "Don't even get me started. I miss old J. Crew." I told her she was not alone and asked her if she read the blogs. She said no, they weren't allowed. They actually had to sign something stating they would not read or participate on blogs. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteI also got the Vintage Zebra-Stripe mini. LOVE!
Amy, that's interesting about the blogs. There is someone that works at J Crew that frequents this blog and makes comments about what her store has etc. She doesn't give the impression she's doing something wrong at all. I don't recall her "name" but apparently she didn't get that memo;)
ReplyDeleteAmy, that is strange. My ps reads this blog and mentions quite often what some of the posts are about. I wonder if that's a new rule? I'll try to remember to ask my ps about it this weekend.
ReplyDeleteLyssa, where did you find the merino boyfriend sweatshirt marked down? please let me know if you can! thanks!
ReplyDeleteI know two PS of stores that I have been to who all read this blog and have commented on it to me as well. Even if they have to sign something there is no way JCrew could enforce this policy on the PS's personal time...
ReplyDeleteI picked up the Alice Ruffle Tank{mink} for $29.99 from Galleria {Dallas, TX} ... it's still $49.99 online. I really like ... TTS.
ReplyDeleteHi Ashley,
ReplyDeleteThanks you so much for the info. I'll call them tomorrow.
Irene
