Extra 30% Off Sale & Free Shipping {on $100+}

"Thanks!" to many of you, including Fabulous Florida Mommy as well as Erika, who shared the following update from J.Crew this morning.

J.Crew is offering customers 30% off all final sale items (no min) and free shipping now on $100+ (as oppose to $150+ from earlier) with promo code SHOPNOW. This offer still expires Sunday, March 13, 2011.

The Final Sale section (click here to shop online) also had a pretty good update this morning. As many of you had noticed, yesterday update wasn't much. So the worry was J.Crew wouldn't update until after the promotion ends. So "wahoo!" for today's update! :)

Will you be checking out the Sale section? Are there any items you are hoping to see or to get? Does your local B&M have "final sale" as well?

  1. Ah! Items flying out of my basket and my favorite items did not pop back. I can be patient. :)

  2. Looks like there are a couple new additions as well (luxe baseball tee, horizon-stripe pencil skirt). I really wish they'd stop putting first markdowns in FS, but I honestly don't think they have IT capable of sorting them out.

  3. I am looking at the short sleeve cashmere sweater in final sale. Can anyone comment on what color "chrome green" actually is? I am not confident that it will show up on my monitor the same color it is in real life. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  4. Lots of items on sale but nothing from my popback list and none of the items in my cart have been reduced either. Waiting for a %-off-my-order promo and then I'll be placing a whopper. Several items I want are backordered already so I won't bother waiting for markdowns.

  5. I too am not seeing what I want. I'm surprised to see featherweight bling-button cardigans in multiple colors, weren't they from last summer? And Cambridge cables, weren't they from a year ago? Where is this stuff coming from?

    ReplyDelete
  6. I bit the bullet and ordered the Stripe painter tee in both charcoal and navy- the navy popped back this morning, so I went for it. I just hope they fit; I don't normally order FS without having tried it on at some point.

    I have a feeling I'm wearing nothing but stripes all summer, LOL.

    ReplyDelete
  7. It sure does seem to be all about stripes for spring and summer, doesn't it? Stripes everywhere you look!

    I've been lucky so far, everything I've ordered from FS has shipped.

    This morning I ordered the vintage cotton sunburst cami in white ash since it was available; prior to now it's ony shown up in gray. I also bought my son a bunch of socks (lol) and a tee, and I got myself the toothpck jeans in last call wash, the skinny gold glitter belt (already have it in brown and it's so cute!), a green favorite tank and a rose gold card case.

    So, lots of odds and ends, but this is bonus payout week at work (YAY!), so I've treated myself to a bit more than usual, hee hee.

    -------------
    Report on FS items received yesterday
    -------------

    Looked at my glitterati party clutch last night and as I'd feared, it does indeed shed glitter particles. I had to unwrap it over the sink. :/ But I figure for the few times I'll actually use it, I can live with it. The last few times I've had to dress up, I've had no proper evening bag to use, so this was a no-brainer at $20.

    I must not have read the description well, because there's a looooooong, heavy chain strap on it! I think I'm going to bust out the needlenose pliers and remove that sucker. Maybe I could wear it as a necklace, lol!

    Wool origami sheath dress, heather gray (charcoal gray is coming today, woot!) -- oh how I love this dress. It fits me perfectly, I love the fabric and wearing it makes me feel like a million bucks. So I had to stockpile in every available color!

    Kerrington ballet flats, bright orange -- love these and they fit TTS. I will definitely get a lot of use out of them, I just hope the color doesn't start coming off too quickly. Not like I can polish them as I could black or brown shoes.

    Wool flanel Fallyn skirt -- ummm....I see why this went on sale. It fits strangely, and it has weird welt pockets on the back that seem out of place somehow. It's supposed to sit at the waist, but it's somehow about an inch too big all the way around. And when I try to pull it down, it still gaps at the waist....? Not horribly, I guess this is why the site pic shows it belted, but clearly something is off with the fit.

    Confetti ruffle cami, ivory -- I haven't tried it on yet, but it may be a bit too big. Seems like the silk tops have been running big in the chest lately. The color is much more yellowy than I anticipated, so not sure I'll keep it. But for $13.99, I figured I could get a few wears out of it in the heat of summer.

    And there you go. Hope this is helpful/informative!

  8. Going to go over and check it out right now. Thanks for the headsup!

    Does the drop from $150 to $100 for free shipping mean we'll be at extra 40% off + $150 shipping and then extra 40% off + $100 shipping? Hehe. Can't wait to find out!

    ReplyDelete
  9. None of what I ordered were final sale:toothpick jeans in bliss wash,
    cotton studded cardi in heather, and
    silk utility tee in aged driftwood. Kind of looks like an outfit when put together :-D

  10. The cobblestone suede Coddingtons are on sale, not FS, just regular sale, and the 30% promo works on them. So I grabbed a pair. Two colors of the satin Love Me Knots are on sale too.

    Jesus, I think I've bought 4 pairs of J Crew shoes in the past 30 days and I'm prepped to buy one more if I they pop back. They've ruined me. Now I'm not happy with other shoes.

    ReplyDelete
  11. I just panicked because I read reviews of the Coddington .. I usually wear a 6.5 but ordered the 7 because of my experience with the other Crew shoes, but then I read that someone else who usually takes a 6.5 found her 6.5 Coddingtons to fit just fine. So I ordered another pair in 6.5 and will send back whichever one doesn't fit. Thank god they aren't FS, I wouldn't be able to do this if they were.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Tamara, I normally wear a 6.5 but I purchased a size 7 in both Coddingtons that I purchased. The 6.5 pinched my toes.

    I ended up biting on this, I purchased the Lulu Frost heirloom crystalline cameo bracelet and Factory Lace pencil skirt ($98 promo, plus 30% off!).

    ReplyDelete
  13. Does anyone have the Mara Suede Wedges? Do they stretch out after a day of wear? I usually size up with JC shoes but this style makes me think they could stretch and be slightly floopy over time.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Got the Lana Suede Lace-ups in spiced olive! Finally! And there doesn't seem to be many sizes left. I still want the wedges, too... no idea when they will kick the bucket.

    ReplyDelete
  15. @ Mariella: I got Lulu Frost for J.Crew heirloom oval blitz bracelet. Aren't those designs so pretty? I really really want the earings, but they were sold out. Somebody is going to wake up at 5 am tomorrow :)))

    ReplyDelete
  16. Anyone wear the Downtown Skinny jeans? The "slightly slouchy" hip and "super skinny" leg do not seem to add up in my mind, but sort of in a weird way, to make me want them. Just wondering: do you size up or down for any reason?
    TIA! :-D

    ReplyDelete
  17. Marietta: DO you know if the Factory Lace pencil skirt is similar to the retail Heirloom lace pencil, in terms of style and quality? TIA!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Elaine - Consider keeping the chain on the clutch. You can just tuck it inside when you don't want to use it. It'll come in handy if you want to wear the purse crossbody or on your shoulder to hold a party drink & appetizer or who knows what else. Now when I see clutches that have chains, I like 'em.

    pathos - I tried the downtown skinny jeans. Based on measurements I sized down one to 28. They fit ok/were a little big in the hips & waist. The leg was too skinny, though. If getting them, I'd get my regular 29.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I tried, Gigi -- I only looked quickly, but I'm pretty sure the way the chain is attached, I can stuff most of it inside the bag, but not all of it. Urgh. And what really kills me is how heavy it is. Why anyone would put such a heavy link chain on such a tiny bag is beyond me.

    Glad for the feedback on the downtown skinnies, which I'd been wondering about. Sounds like a pass for me. As it is, most pants that fit my thunderthighs gap in the waist. ...

    ReplyDelete
  20. @tamara - I had to go up one half size for the Coddingtons. I normally wear a 7.5 but had to go with the size 8 for this one. They definitely run a little small.

    I received my Aurora tweed skirt yesterday - love the burnt orange colour and the slight sheen of the fabric.

    Didn't buy much today with the update - just a featherweight short sleeve cashmere cardi. Hoping for a bigger update tomorrow morning.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Well, if they are big in the hip and waist, then it is a pass for me. That is the one area where I need things to be snug. My legs however are normal, so most jeans gap in the waist as is. :-(

    ReplyDelete
  22. I bought 2 necklaces with this promo. I think it's great they are still allowing free ship with some of the select jewelery pieces.

    ReplyDelete
  23. None of the items I want have popped back so I am sitting this one out. I still REALLY want the wide calf hair belt but it never comes back in a medium, boo.

    OT but does anyone have a Holiday 2007 catalog laying around? I am wondering if there is any info/ a photo of an item I recently bought on eBay but does not seem to exist on the internet. It is the exact design of the Uptown tote, but it is the ocelot printed calf hair. The inner tag says it is from HO 07. I'd be eternally grateful to anyone who could provide me with a scan of the image of this purse or even just the item description. I can't explain why... I am just curious I guess how much it was originally, etc. It is my new purse love!

    Thanks!!!

  24. Elaine, thanks for the review of the fallyn skirt. I've seen a couple on eBay in my size and I was tempted... but now I know why they all ended up there!

    ReplyDelete
  25. @ CrewGurl - I haven't actually seen the Factory lace skirt in person, to compare it to the retail Heirloom lace, but from what I can see looking at the pictures zoomed in, the lace seems to be pretty comparable. I ordered the cobblestone color, which I think will look nice for the spring. I've ordered Factory skirts before, and I take my regular JCrew size. The fit is just as good, IMO.

    @ Pumpkin - I had been eyeing this Lulu bracelet for months, I am glad it finally went on sale, and with an additional % off. Their jewelry is really pretty, I am sure we will love wearing them!

  27. J Crew JD, is the tag on your uptown tote?

    ReplyDelete
  28. It doesn't have the paper tag, but it has the little tag that says the season and item number... it is from HO 07 and is item 89019. And now that I am comparing it to my one metallic uptown, it is slightly diff... but it has the side snaps, the metal feet on the bottom, etc., like the uptown.

    And it reeks of smoke, ugh... one of the drawbacks of eBay.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I found a leopard print J Crew bag, mentioned on this web page from 2006. Is it the same print at least? The web page says it's a Downtown Hobo, but I thought the downtown looked different than that.

  30. tamara, good find!!! It is the same print as that, but it is a diff style. That bag is really cute too!

    ReplyDelete
  31. I too have an item I'd like to find an original J Crew picture of. eBay seller has Esme heels (pumps) in a color described as "pink". I can't find any evidence of such a color, seller's photos are a bit on the dark side and I'd love to see a J Crew picture to better gauge the color. Anyone remember the Esme heels in a pink or mauve color? I've tried the color codes for the pink-tones of Esme sandals but neither one works.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Urgh! I can't believe they bumped it down to $100 free ship. Those rat bastards. I ordered a couple Lisette tanks on supersale to bump my order to $150 earlier this week, and I'm sure I'll love them, but only the double-serge pencil skirts I got were on my NEED TO OWN list.

    Darn you J. Crew, mucking with my responsible shopping. [fist shake]

  34. too many winter clothes that are priced too high to buy now at the middle of March.

  35. too many winter clothes at this time of year, at too high a price.

  36. I wasn't really stalking as I have way too many things but I happened on an open cardigan cashmere sweater that I would have happily bought at fp in the fall, had it been available (I made two WWFFY searches to no avail). I actually thought that it was in-store only because I NEVER saw it on the website (it is the one with the straight hem and pockets, not the one with the rounded hem). Probably it was an older item from the summer that I hadn't noticed before freezing season. Amazingly it didn't fall off my cart (I debated more than an hour) and now I really hope that it ships and fits (it is a S but I hope to get away with it because of the open style.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Love the duette cami, and posted a few pics of it IRL on my blog!

    ReplyDelete
  38. I managed to put together an order that was almost exactly $100 after the 30% discount, which makes me all happy (I hate paying shipping, but also hate ordering ride-alongs).

    I ordered the Odeon high-heel oxfords (after reading a few comments, I went up a half size, since my feet are a bit wide and sometimes a 7 1/2 fits better), and the camp pocket cardigan in smoldering brick (I love rust!).

    I wouldn't have ordered the cardigan at FP, but with the discount it is about $35, which seemed fine.

    ReplyDelete
  39. In case anyone is interested, here is an IRL photo and review of the Noelle leather and canvas lace-up booties ( I love them!): http://www.flickr.com/photos/marianneganzon/5513695170/

  40. Does anyone have experience with size XXS in the stripe drawstring dress? I can't decide between XS and XXS and though I've looked at everyone's IRL pics on blogs, I find it hard to tell how this one fits! TIA!

    ReplyDelete
  41. I received my Apogee necklace today and I am in love. Here is my review. I hope it pops back, I highly recommend it! Definitely a welcome piece to my closet.

    ReplyDelete
  42. OperaRach,

    If you go to M's blog here, she has links to other bloggers' reviews of the stripe drawstring dress-- they're at the end of the post. General consensus seems to be to size down on this one. HTH!

    ReplyDelete
  43. OperaRach,

    Sorry, I read over your post pretty quickly and didn't see that you said you'd seen others' IRL pics. I sized down to an XXS for this dress. Should be receiving it tomorrow or Friday and will review it before the promo ends.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Jackie -

    Thank you! May I ask what size you normally wear so I can gauge for myself? I'm very curious to hear about how you like the XXS!

    ReplyDelete
  45. Oops - sorry that last comment was by operarach but from my hubby's account!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Sam/OperaRach :) ,

    I usually wear XS in knits and tees, 0 in tops. I size down for the baggier, blousier items and this dress definitely seems to be one of them. I think you're definitely safe sizing down on the dress from what I've read on others' blogs.

    ReplyDelete
  47. iroar: That necklace is gorgeous and it looks great on you with that shirt! Such a great feeling when you adore a purchase like that!

    ReplyDelete
  48. Jackie -

    That's really helpful. I actually usually wear a X in the clingier knits (like perfect tees) and a 2/4 in perfect shirts so if the XXS is perfect on you then I should probably stick to my usual XS. Keep me posted!

    OperaRach/Sam

  49. i received the dotted tulle fineline cami today and it's 100% poly and nylon. the description online says silk! i've been hoodwinked. the cami is cute for $27 but i don't think it passes the f21 test (tm gigiofca).

    did this happen to anyone else?

  52. Nothing that I wanted this morning...

    ReplyDelete
  53. Sale section is restocked...does anyone else have the same anxiety I do over trying to find items to add to your order to get the discount just so the one thing you really want doesn't go away? Ordered the Sperrys this morning, as well as vintage cotton mixed lawn shirt and tissue silk drape tee. Anyone have any reviews of these items? I only really wanted the Sperrys, but was so paranoid they would leave my shopping bag I had to order other stuff...my wallet is yelling at me currently.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Hrmmm... I immediately checked for the Silk Serenade colorblock dress, saw a size 0 blue/red one and ordered quickly, but now the color is not showing up at all... really makes me wonder if it was a fluke... I hope it actually comes through! Also have been hoping for a small Softwashed wool blazer in camel to pop back, got a 2, hopefully it works or some tailoring will be in order. Does anyone have this jacket? Also tees for husband...

    ReplyDelete
  55. Oh... I couldn't resist a leopard scarf that popped up when I searched for 'camel', but it had a 'Product Short Desc - Please update at the product level' for its title... Does anyone recall anything like this in past seasons or is it new, or another fluke... I figure if it's not really available they'll just cancel or tell me. Hrm...

    ReplyDelete
  56. able to score (well maybe) a popback double serge pencil in ochre in a size 6 - needed to exchange the 8 I bought.

    picked up the denim pencil too and a factory printed ruffle shirt for cheap for spring

    was really hoping to score a Coletta but nothing in my size...oh well.

    ReplyDelete
  57. To the people who have the 6.5 warm taupe Lindys that they want to return....... please send them back ASAP. A customer is in dire need. :) I hope I didn't miss them this morning because I didn't log on until 6:45am instead of like 5am, I did see some Lindys had popped back, just not the ones I want. I'm getting up earlier tomorrow.

  59. WPZ Sandy, not sure if you'll see this or not, but the leopard scarf is new. I bought it in the B&M a few weeks ago. Love it.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Kris -- I did see it, thanks for letting me know! I've had a leopard infinity scarf saved in my polyvore for ages, and this scarf can represent that space! I wear leopard a LOT (as an accent, often, not like all-over-a-lot!) so I think I'll get great use of it!

  61. @Tamara: There was no update this morning until like 6.45/ 6.50am. I woke up at 5...grrr...now I am way too sleepy.

    ReplyDelete
  62. mjbeet -- that is really disappointing to hear. My Dotted Tulle Cami should be arriving tomorrow and I will be angry to see it's not silk. Of course it's not in stock any more so I can't go back to check the description. Not cool, JC. >:-(

    ReplyDelete
  63. Clicquot,

    You can usually google out-of-stock items and find it. Here's the URL for the dotted tulle fineline cami:

  64. Wow! They advertise it as just silk. That is very deceiving.

    ReplyDelete
  65. @CrewGurl - It really is such a wonderful feeling! That's why even with all its faults, J.Crew is very hard to break up with :)

    On another happy note, anyone interested in the Lace top? I just got it today. You can check my review here. I know it's currently out of stock but I made a review just in case it pops back and anyone's interested! :)

    ReplyDelete
  66. Oh Pumpkin, thanks for letting me know! I'm having a hard time backing up my wake up time as it is, in prep for dreaded DST (can we just settle on a time and stop this switching nonsense??). I have skewed work hours and don't normally wake up until 8am. I'll try for 6am tomorrow then, instead of 5. :)

    ReplyDelete
  67. Can anyone comment on the sizing of the Wool Origami Sheath Dress? I am in love and have been dying to snag it at this great price but it is FS and I am so scared of choosing the wrong size and then being stuck! I am typically a size 6 or 4 in pants and skirts. However I have only purchased one dress from JC ever and found that it ran on the smaller side. I ordered a 6 and although I can wear it, I probably could have worn an 8 comfortably. TIA!

    ReplyDelete
  68. CrewGurl - the wool oragami sheath dress runs 1 size large. I wear a 4 in dresses/pants/skirts and 2 in this dress fit me perfectly

    ReplyDelete
  69. Was online when the update came through this morning. Immediately put the watercolor garden shell in my cart.....oops.....there it goes.....before I could complete my checkout POOF sold out. Man, literally in a matter of seconds.
    Initial update women's sale was 1000 or so items....not telling what it is now :0

    ReplyDelete
  70. OOPS, meant "no telling"....of course if I knew I would tell. Fingers aren't cooperating this morning. Time for more coffee!

    ReplyDelete
  71. Can anyone comment on what the color *Retro Orange* is like IRL? Is it bright like the color Cerise or Bright Flame from previous years? TIA! :)

    ReplyDelete
  72. Just an FYI: In the past when the update time has been discussed on here, J.Crew ends up changing it again.

  74. Lots of items are back in stock, sadly not the ones I'm looking for. It looks like there wasn't a shoe update, maybe it's done separately? By the way, the Odeon Heels are such a great deal, $70 with the 30% promo, I wish they were something I could use because I think they're so cute and that price is fantastic. C'mon shoe update!

    ReplyDelete
  75. thanks gratiae =) Of course it is sold out now. Will wait to see if it pops back. Still waiting for troupers, size 4 to pop back. I can't believe I am waking up early for this. Crazy!!

    ReplyDelete
  76. CrewGurl, what color are you looking for in the Troupers?

    ReplyDelete
  77. Chic Chauffeur, your blog entry about the Odeon High-Heel Oxfords convinced me to buy them! Your pictures and description were very helpful. I've been liking them for a long time but always passed. But now at $70 with the promo they're such a fabulous deal I had to re-evaluate. I picked up a Merino Twinkle Button Cardigan that I was waiting to buy, so my total got me the free shipping. I love all of the shoes with the straight heels that have the slight curve where the heel joins the shoe body, so elegant. The colors of the Odeon are so cute. Plus I'm loving J Crew's shoe quality. I'm not sure what I'll wear with the Odeons, I wish I had some catalog pictures. I posted a request for help in the "Help Style Me" section.

    ReplyDelete
  78. silver_lining: preferably shadow, but I would take either at this point. I have both colors in size 6 but they are too big. I figured at 19.99 with 30% off, I wouldn't mind paying for another pair. Especially if it actually fits =)

    ReplyDelete
  79. CrewGurl, I have a NWT pair in titanium in size 4. If you're interested, shoot me an email at silver.lining.jca at gmail.

    Sorry for the OT, all - we now return you two your regularly scheduled JCA programming! :)

  80. CrewGurl -- I have a pair of size 4 Troupers in Shadow I'm about to return. Let me know ASAP if you're interested.

  81. I just received the Saturday Sweaters (Marled Grey and Marled Fawm) in size S.

    I chose this size based upon my bust measurement, and they turned out to be a lot larger than expected. They are very roomy and long - the sweater covers my behind! (I'm 5'3" with a medium length torso, about 120 lbs)

    I was hoping for a snugger fit but on second thought the slightly loose silhouette is nice, and these sweaters would work nicely with slim pants, mini skirts and over swimsuits. I also wanted the Marled Blue but now they're sold out... oh well!

    ReplyDelete
  82. Big update this morning! Nothing for me however. Back to bed =)

    ReplyDelete
  83. Still no shoe popbacks. :( I hope it doesn't suddenly occur after the 30% off promo ends! I did pick up another Merino Twinkle Button Cardigan. I'm so used to not paying shipping it hurts to pay that $8.50, but I didn't want to add more to the order because I need $$ for shoes.

    ReplyDelete
  84. Opinion, thank you for your comments on the Saturday sweater, I almost added that to my cart this morning but changed my mind at the last minute, and now I'm glad I removed it because it's not what I expected. With the merino/linen blend you can definitely shrink it. I dryer-shrink so much stuff!

    ReplyDelete
  85. Tamara, sometimes if you have placed multiple orders during a promo they will waive the shipping on an order that is less than the minimum. But you have to call them and place the order on the phone ( they can't do it retroactively). You can still call them and try to have the shipping charge credited back to your card. HTH!

    FFM, I only saw the retro orange in the driving scarf and it is a true "classic" red (not bright like the cerise or the bright flame).

    Does anybody have the herringbone minnies? How is the sizing compared to the regular twill minnies? I guess I should size one up because they are not stretch but would like to hear some feedback from other jcas before ordering a fs item. TIA!

    ReplyDelete
  86. Copying and pasting to make sure I have all the names right.

    Collins leather platform peep toes in tawny orange

    Lace marvelle mini in deep harbor (navy), FS

    Jeweled elastic flower belt

    Moiré silk Minette dress, FS


    I think it was a great haul...the two things I'm pretty sure about are the skirt and the dress, which are final sale, so that's okay. The shoes and the belt, I'm not sure...and they're returnable. 30% off and free shipping is kinda irresistible

    ReplyDelete
  87. Waited patiently and the trouper pants flew out my cart at the final minute. Here's to one more day =(

    ReplyDelete
  88. snactres, I have the Collins in the mink color and I love them! I love the tawny orange too, I'm hoping I can snag them when they're marked down more.

    ReplyDelete
  89. Anyone interested in the Noelle booties? Here is my review, with video!. This is another item that I got from the 30% off promo and I love them!

    ReplyDelete
  90. I have a strong feeling that a lot of stuff is going to pop back after the promo expires. Oh well, at least the Lindys will be on sale even if I can't have the additional 30% off. See y'all tomorrow morning. :)

    ReplyDelete
  91. not understanding why the denim pencil skirt is not shown anywhere on website, but when you search for it specifically it is available in every size!? ..I guess they don't want to see that, ha!

  92. I made another video review here - this time of the Eliza Lace-Up boots. I got these during the 40% off sale. Hope this helps someone out there! : )

  93. I'm having a struggle here ... should I buy the suede Collins before the 30% promo expires, or hold out for a lower price later, either because of a reduced sale price or a 40% promo, and risk my size not being available.

  94. Tamara, I guess it depends on when you can/want start wearing the shoes. They will go lower and you will probably still find your size (especially if you keep stalking) but it can be in a week or in a few months. Personally, I don't think we are going to see another 40% off anytime soon (but the 30% off comes along pretty regularly). HTH!

  96. Ema, excellent point. I probably wouldn't wear them til the weather gets warmer, so a month or two. And here's a new mitigating factor: eBay sellers have Lindys in my size. I think I'll pass on the Collins for now, see if J Crew has any Lindy popbacks tomorrow, and if not then buy on eBay. I want those Lindy's really bad, I can wait for the Collins. Oh I love the J Crew shoes! How did I pass them by all of the prior years? I looked but never fell in love, this year is different.
