Sought & Found: Did you visit J.Crew this {past} Weekend?

This is the weekly "sale watch" post, to help each other find sale items at our various local J.Crew stores. ;)

If you are stopped by a J.Crew store this past weekend to see what's available (if anything!) in the FALL sale, or to see some new FALL 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!!! :)

  2. I was curious if some people are having certain stores say they are not allowed to combine the 30% off sales and the 15% student discount? I've been to several stores that allow me to combine it. There include American stores. However, when I returned to Canada, the stores say we can't "double dip". Why is there no consistency with this 15% college discount?

    1. Nothing new. Some stores will some won't in the us. Been going on like this for over a decade.

    2. I was surprised when the SA gave me my educator discount on top of the 30% this weekend. That never happens to me but I won't expect it in the future. They are very strict about double dipping at this location.

  4. Didn't get to visit, but really wish I had b/c I'm torn about the Double Serge Lady jacket. I keep stalking it online, but I have the feeling that it won't work on my figure. Has anyone here with a large bust and a short torso tried this jacket on? And did it look awesome/terrible?

    1. I just received this jacket, and it actually looks great.
      For reference, I am 5'1" and busty...I ordered the Petite size, and it is perfect. Beautifully tailored, and not boxy at all.

    2. Thanks for the feedback! I'll probably just force myself to behave and wait until the holiday rollout. Should only be a couple of weeks away!

    3. I have a large bust, but a long torso and I own this coat and love it. Beacause of my bust, I had to get a 2 instead of a 0 and it is a tiny bit large in the shoulders, but I appreciate the extra room when I wear chunky sweaters, etc. The material is very high quality-you won't be disappointed!

    4. I have a large bust and am short waisted also. I love the jacket but decided to return it because it just looks "off". I think it's because of my bust size. I wanted to work sooo badly. For reference I'm 5'2, I wear a 34DDD and wear a size 12 in JC clothing. I'm planning a reduction in the summer so I think I'll order it again.

  9. I caved on the Collection Colorblock Sequin Top, the one with the rectangular sequins. I found it on the sale rack in a colorway I've not seen before--white and beige--rather than the burgundy-navy. The SA said he hadn't seen it before either.
