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.

  1. OT, but does anyone have a Madewell coupon for full price purchases? Only thing I ever got there was a leather bag some 3 years? ago but I just spotted some lovelies that I would like to try.

    email to scholastica.bean@gmail.com

    TIA!

    1. I have never received a coupon for Madewell, so I would be curious to know if they even exist.

  2. For those of you wondering about Uniqlo, I got my online order yesterday and I was really pleased!

    I bought the $9.90 skinny straight jeans in purple... I thought they might be a little questionable because I'm only 5'2" and super stocky, so I sized up like two sizes from what I would normally buy, and they fit pretty well.

    They even fit my rather substantial legs, and I legit can't get the JC toothpicks on, so I was happy! I can just hem the bottoms up a little so I can wear them with flats.

    The crewneck sweatshirt I bought is pretty fitted, but it's nice enough that I'm wearing it to work today with a pair of skimmers.

    HTH.

  3. I have not found any JC jackets that I want to buy this season, so I've looked elsewhere. I was pleasantly surprised by the offerings at Talbots. I wear a jacket almost every day, so I think I'll buy there this season. Some are dowdy, but many are very nice.
