This is the weekly "Other JCrew-like Retailers" post (similar to the "Off On A Tangent" posts), where we can share our finds from other retailers that have offerings similar to J.Crew (like Anthropologie, LE Canvas, Gap, BR, Talbots, Ann Taylor, and the like.)
If you have recently encountered items that are similar to J.Crew, maybe you might be willing to share that information with us in this post.
Please feel free to share your story on almost any topic— including experiences with certain merchandise pieces, promotions/ offers, in-store visits, transactions with store associates, etc.
In case someone is looking for a cheaper version of the printed patent Valentinas, I just spied these at Nine West and they looked FABULOUS (even better than the Valentinas, actually because the print is less fuzzy). I only saw them in the window, so I cannot comment on fit and comfort but I would give them a try for the price, they are as close as you can get.
ReplyDeleteI checked out a few blazers at Talbots. There's a 50% off jackets & outerwear promotion going on there, as well. Check out this review for more info. Happy shopping!
ReplyDeleteAnthropologie sent me an ONLINE code - 20% off on purchases of US$150 or more. It is valid until November 17th. I will not be using it, so if anyone is interested in taking advantage of it, please email me at margotreine@gmail.com
ReplyDeletesub :)
ReplyDeleteAnthropologie code has been claimed.
ReplyDeleteSome J.Crew-like items in this post. :)
ReplyDeleteThe Anthropologie code is usually tied to your email address so I'm not sure if someone else can use it. (FYI the code is sent by Anthro CS to customers who haven't ordered in awhile or whose orders were messed up.)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info, Roxy.
ReplyDeleteAT and LOFT F&F starts today - 40% off with code FRIENDS and FS on $100+.
ReplyDeleteI received the code (thanks so much Margot!) and it does seem to work on mock checkout while logged in, on sale and 30% promo items but not full price.
ReplyDeleteA few Banana Republic reviews here.
ReplyDeleteJust received a Jack Wills catalog, never heard of them before. Seems like UK's answer to Crew + abercrombie. I think I'm too old for their demographic:)
ReplyDeleteSome cute coats. However, they top out at size 10.
Does anyone know if Ann Taylor Loft heels run TTS? There's a pair in what would typically be a half size small on me, but I'm wondering if I could get away with it...
ReplyDeleteCan anyone comment on the sizing of Madewell tops/blouses? I never purchased from there before, and there is a button down shirt I'm looking to purchase. I'm usually a small at JC, but their sizing says I should be a medium. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI placed my first Madewell order this past weekend and it's now on my favorite store list! Ordered the Ice Dance Dress, Lampost Sweaterdress, Holiday Henley Sweater and the Rowboat Sweater. I'm keeping everything! The quality of everything is fabulous. Everything is wool and no acrylic. The customer service is also great. Two of the items dropped in price yesterday. I emailed Madewell last nite and within an hour receieved a response saying they would credit me!
