If
you are stopping
by a J.Crew store this weekend to see
what's available (if
anything!) in the HOLIDAY sale, or to see some new WINTER
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 is carrying an additional percent off sale. Thanks in advance!!! :)
P.S. I noticed that many of you have already been reporting sale items (and in which stores) in other posts which by the way "thank you!" :) I really appreciate how helpful we are for each other!
Stopped by the outlet today and was surprised that the prices were not better! They were about the same as online, no super great deals. The lobster sweater was only $5 off. They did not have any of the new cotton charley sweaters, which was the main reason I went. Maybe the prices will be better for the weekend. I think it was 30% off denim, 20% off shirts, 20% of the herringbone schoolboy blazers, and 20 or 30% off the factory Naomi tops. Sales section was super sad and picked over, as was the crewcuts section. Overall, it looked very spring-y!
ReplyDeleteLooking for a Cocoon coat in any colorway in size 00. If you happen to see one or have one you are planning on returning, please let me know! My email is bankygirl (at) gmail (dot) com. TIA!
ReplyDeleteHi all , i have a pair of the camel plaid cafe capris in 00 that I'm returning to the store unless a JCA wants thembg
ReplyDeleteI bought them in the 25% off promo when 00 was available, so I'm selling them for 120, which is the current price. Please send me an email at maqsadshop at gmail dot com if you're interested.
Definitely will visit the outlet, JC and Madewell, in that order. :)
ReplyDeleteRose...sounds like your heading to Seattle for the weekend. Please let us know what the sale sections are like there compared to Vancouver. Thanks
DeleteCarolyn from Vancouver
If anyone sees a herringbone excursion vest in xxs or xs please let me know :(
ReplyDeleteAlso how much are the chiffon tops in store??
If anyone sees a navy excursion vest in small in store, please let me know. It would totally make my day! Thanks!
ReplyDeletethey had some navy ones at the michigan ave chicago store last week, full price. i didn't specifically see a small, but they had xs and i was pretty surprised by how complete their size run seemed.
DeleteHannah, thanks for the info. They sold them last week :(
DeleteI went yesterday, and was lucky enough to see new arrivals. Lovely. I put some pages from the new catalog up on my blog On Trend Orchids - Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteIs the catalog available now ? If this is a sneek peak....please can you share more.... thanks
Deleteis anyone able to scan the full catalog for us ( a wonderful JCA- Fab FL Mommy did it once before) These sneek peeks are killing me !!!
DeleteOh my...since I live in stripes, the first photo you scanned with the print sweater and green stripe pants with a ribbon belt at the waist - I LOVE!!
DeleteI am also loving the No.2 Pencil skirt in that paisley navy/pink/cream color, and of course the sequin stripe pencil skirt in green I love as well.
I can't wait for the February roll out next week. Thanks for scanning, KnitYarns!
Hi, can anyone confirm the % off in stores? And the excursion vest in store price?
ReplyDeleteTIA!!
was still 50% off final sale as of yesterday. did not see excursion vests.
Deletethx bella!
DeleteProbably not - I visited earlier in the week and the sale section was pretty cleaned out - plus, I checked on UPS and I think I have 3 (!!) packages arriving from JC today...
ReplyDeleteOff topic, does anyone have a Factory coupon code they could spare me? There's a few things I want to get but they are promo priced so the discount code does not work on them. My email is stylishchemist at gmail dot com. Thanks in advance!!
OT but does Madewell ever have % off their regular price sales like JCrew did before the holidays?
ReplyDeleteAlso, for those of you looking for excursion vests, I have not seen them in any of the JCs on Long Island, NY. Sorry! I wish I had bought one for myself as well. Maybe next winter!
before the holidays madewell had a % off your purchase, i believe. i think it was 20 or 30?
DeleteI am going in today. I received my 40 off package w/the Nolita jean jacket and a few other items. The Nolita was a bit big on me in a Med. so I am going to go in and try out a sz. S. I expect to find nothing in the sale section as it was already picked to the bones last week. A couple quick reviews. I got the tissue t-shirt material beige/cream infinity scarf (snood?). I LOVE it!! It drapes fabulous and isn't too hot as some of the knit ones can be. I hadn't planned on keeping it, but I am! I also ordered the Anchor Knot bracelet as a ride-along to try. I love that one as well! I'm hanging onto it for now, but hoping it will go down in price. Most likely I won't keep it at FP, but it really looks great on, and fits the wrist nicely. Is a nice heavy weight. Very clean and modern looking. I could see wearing it all the time - casual or dressy. My only complaint is that the gold is kind of shiny which makes it look a little, I don't know, less expensive. Looking forward to seeing new arrivals. I just got an email w/my rewards code, so I may cave in and buy something!
ReplyDeleteNice they are sending emails now w/ rewards codes. I need to return a free-shipping ride along. Doubt there will be much left in the sale section but will check it out anyway. Happy shopping!!
ReplyDeleteYes! I just got an email with them this morning.
DeleteWhat was the subject of the email? I don't think I got one. Bummer.
DeleteThe subject line reads: (my name) your $50 spring reward is inside.
DeleteBasically, it says the rewards card is in the mail, but they're also below to get a jump start on spring new arrivals..... Card/pin number included
I received my rewards via email too. It was spent within the first hour I had it! :)
DeleteOT--Refinery 29 has a story on stylish working women and asks them where they shop (in addition to showing off their outfits). All are NYC based and all mention the usual suspects--Saks, Barneys and . . . J Crew. I thought this was interesting and indicative that JCrew is in fact penetrating that market.
ReplyDeleteSaw pink excursion vests at Cambridgeside Galleria (MA) yesterday, not sure what sizes. Sale section was all but empty.
ReplyDeleteI have to return some Land's End stuff to Sears, which happens to be semi-near J.Crew, so I suppose I have to stop in. My b&m is small and doesn't get any of the good stuff, so am not getting my hopes up.
ReplyDeleteI will not be going! I did well in the sale section earlier this week (and last week, and the week before) and I have a Nolita Jean Jacket on the way. I need to take a shopping/J.Crew break now that I have finished with the winter sales. But, I will probably go in next week once I get the jacket to compare the S I have on the way to an XS.
ReplyDeleteI went by UVillage in Seattle yesterday. They had 50% off sale items, but a tiny section, and most of what was available was in 00 and 12. There were lots of empty shelves around the store; they're clearly getting ready for a shipment. Madewell next door had a larger sale section with 30% off. Some good deals on shirts and shoes in non-basic colors.
ReplyDeleteOT - I have a 25% Coach coupon that needs a good home. I bought two of the legacy bags last month - Tanner tote and Candace. Really love both - leather is thick and both bags stand nicely. Tanner is a perfect work size for me. Anyway, after that little spree I cannot afford more - the coupon expires on Sunday (Jan. 27). I'll send the first person to post their email address as a reply to this post.
ReplyDeleteI'll take that :). I can always add a few more beautiful coach bags to my wardrobe! natsmola@gmail.com,
DeleteThanks!
Just sent in. I double checked the code in my email and it was different than the one on the printed coupon that came in the mail so I guess I have one more to give away - let me know if you'd like it.
DeleteI would love it! nzz2101@columbia.edu
Deletehectic day - just sent it now. Happy Shopping!
DeleteI've also got a Coach coupon. First person to post their email after my reply will get it (I'll send it Sunday morning).
DeleteRosie - is your Coach coupon still available? If so, I'd love to have it.

Way OT but does anyone have any experience with J Crew Wedding/Brisdemaid dresses? Looking for a "casual" wedding dress (if such an item exists) for mid April wedding. There are some lovely shorter brisdemaid dresses but the colors are not suitable!!
ReplyDeleteany info is much appreciated thanks :)
Lauren, what size are you? There is a cute cas dress I saw on eBay, NWT, for cheap, and in general, you can find the more casual J.Crew wedding dresses on eBay all the time. If you got one cheap enough, you could get a longer one and have it shortened.
DeleteShoot me an e-mail if you want to discuss further. jca837 at gmail. My wedding dress is a more casual J.Crew one and I've spent a lot of time on this subject!
I bought a J.Crew wedding dress in 2006. It was the Avery in Ivory Silk. It was for a beach wedding and it was perfect. It was $300 at the time. I was very happy and thought the quality was as good as many $1000-$1500. I spend $75 on alterations to get a perfect fit as you would for any wedding dress. I think getting one of them shortened might be a good way to go casual.
DeleteA true JCA, I wore 4 different JCrew dresses in the course of my wedding weekend for rehearsal dinner, getting ready, the ceremony and reception. I have no regrets. The two long gowns, both bought on clearance, were perfect for my traditional but not too formal wedding, and one even fit perfectly off the rack.
DeleteOne suggestion for you would to be make a full-length JCrew ivory dress more casual by altering it to knee length.
@Kelly -- sorry, I just noticed you already made that suggestion!
Delete@Lauren - sorry reply not working. I went to JCrew wedding salon in 5th avenue store NYC and tried all chiffon gowns they had. I was looking for something simple and light. After choosing Arabelle gown I bought it from ebay and saved quite a lot of money. The only difficult part was tracking the right color. JCrew had different shades of ivory/white issued in the different years under the same item numbers so I had to call JCrew and email sellers.
ReplyDeleteOT but I just recieved my Spring rewards via email! I guess the card is on the way as well but they send me revard PIN etc. so it can be used right away. Expires March 15th. Nice move, Jcrew

ReplyDeleteOT..new Factory items were added online yesterday. Not sure if someone else has already covered this. Nice update to the site! :)
ReplyDeleteI visited the website late last night and managed to score the Double cloth slim trench in cobalt blue for aus $139!!
ReplyDeleteI got the Cobalt Blue colour.
Does anyone here have this coat and can tell me if the cobalt is the same colour as it looks on the website?
I'm so thrilled as I really wanted this coat for our upcoming winter!
I have the coat in navy and it is such a classic piece! I love the fabric, style, and fit. So happy you scored it too! Enjoy!
DeleteI bought this coat in Camel early in the season and love it. So much in fact that I bought it in the blue. It is bright but I love it, it will really brighten up a winter. Enjoy...
DeleteThat's really good to hear! It's always a bit of a risk ordering things that can't be returned, sight unseen!
DeleteI'm really looking forward to it arriving, even though its still stinking hot in Sydney.
Just one other question: does it fit true to size? I usually wear 00 P (am v short!) and ordered this in 00 P. am hoping it won't swamp me!
Ruth, I did the same thing and did gasp a little when I opened the box. But love it and gotten lots of 'love your blue coat'. I am short too, 5'1" and shrinking. I got a 6P my usual coat size for J Crew. I usually wear a 4 or 4P but in J Crew coats I found 6P perfect. This is slim fitting but I can wear a shirt and cardi and still able to move. It is a wonderful coat you will love it.
DeleteThanks JRSConifer! I think the size should be ok. Sydney winters aren't very cold usually so I won't need to layer too much under it.
DeleteI'm v excited for its arrival. I've seriously bought almost a complete winter wardrobe from the J Crew site in the last month! Hard to resist when the clothing choices here are so limited in my size and so expensive.
Ruth,
DeleteI also have a P00 and it fits like a glove. It is suppose to be mid thigh but it hits just above the knees on me because I am very short too. But the proportions of this coat are right on. It does not overwhelm small frames. I've gotten so many compliments . I think bright color winter coats are the way to go. Everyone wears black in the winter and its a bit of a drab. I have a yellow lady day as well as a red metro coat. All from jcrew. Wearing them in the bleak mid winter makes me feel happier. Hope you enjoy the coat. Don't worry about the color being too bright. I promise, you are going to get compliments left and right. Let us know how you like the coat when it arrives.
Thanks bella! Good to hear :-)
DeleteI love bright colours, so am sure I will love it.
I'll let you know when it arrives!
I have this coat in the Carribean Pink and I love it! I love the length (not too long) and that it's belted!
DeleteLauren,
DeleteIs Caribbean pink more of a muted color? It looks so pretty online and I thought about getting it for my sister. She doesn't wear super bright colors. I think slim trench coat is one of the best Jcrew coats ever.
bella, it definitely makes a statement but I would say it's more muted than bright. I could send you some irl picks if you would like?
DeleteLauren,
DeleteThanks so much but they are completely sold out of the slim trench coats! Bummer. Maybe they will bring them back next year.
If anyone has a factory code she doesn't intend to use, I'd be grateful. Thanks. kikkicee at live dot com
ReplyDeleteSale room at Eaton Centre is dwindling but still some very good deals as they continue the 50% off sale prices. Lots of the Majesty peacoat in the bright pink, ditto the excursion vest in pink and beige, a few black watch trenchcoats, a good selection of the quilted jackets and that harris-tweedy coat in the brown colourblock . All the navy and herringbone vests seem to be gone. Also quite a lot of cashmere still - the cashmere Tippi in the stripes is down to $45 after the discount. You need to look seriously but there are still finds to be had. AND they were applying the educator discount on top!
ReplyDeleteLucky Canadian dwellers! How much was the Majesty? Has anybody seen it marked down in store in the US?
DeleteThe peacoat was $199 CAD down from $320; with the 50% + the 15%, it ended up at $85. My sister and I both pounced - too good to pass up. Lucky enough to find one in black and one in the bright blue. Not sure if any of the other 2 JCs in town have any of these coats still.
Deletedid you notice the size and price of the tweed colorblock coat? i thought that was long gone.
DeleteLast I saw it was $299
DeleteThey had several of them (maybe 4 or 5) but I have to say I did not check size/ price as the coat never appealed to me. I was totally focused on the peacoats...
DeleteHas anyone seen the tabby sweater in an xs or s? thanks!
ReplyDeleteOT, but has anyone seen the Tartine Satchel online in the last month? I did a chat today to see if I could pre-order it and the CS rep told me that its sold out online. She told me its been online since the end of December and has sold out. She offered to do a WWFIFY, but her information does not seem correct to me.
ReplyDeleteI saw it a couple of days ago online but it was gone later in the day. I hope you find it!
DeleteI did a WWFIFY a couple of days ago for the bag and my personal shopper was able to find it for me. It shipped today.
DeleteAn Aussie reader commented it showed up unexpectedly the other day and then disappeared. It is a new item and is not on the website yet. Check out KnitYarns' post above and her blog On Trend Orchids for a pic.
DeleteThere was a two color Tartine satchel at the Walden Galleria in Buffalo yesterday.
DeleteI ordered it very early Thursday morning, and it disappeared on the website a couple of hours later. It shipped yesterday (thank goodness!).
DeleteI saw the two color Tartine satchel at Park Meadows, very beautiful bag.
DeleteI saw the tarting satchel in black and the white/black in Seattle at both the UVillage $ the Bellevue Square stores.
DeleteGot an email from my vPS that she holding an event tomorrow. What does this generally mean? TIA
ReplyDeletePerfectFit - At my store they usually have mini brownies and coffee. I've only ever been to events in the am. Sometimes there is a % off like $20% off $150+, but in most cases it was just supposed to be personal time with the vPS. Which is silly to me because I can just book an appt at any other time with her. Hope it's fun if you go.
DeleteWent to the Corte Madera store this week with a few returns and to my astonishment, there was a lovely tippi cashmere in my size -- for only $70 including tax, could not resist. Sale section still full looking, but a lot of really small or really larger sizes. Still lusting for the beaded herringbone skirt that I've been told will never go on sale (sigh). Does any JCA have one?
ReplyDeleteWas at the Old Orchard (IL) location yesterday and pretty much all of the sale items were being offered at an additional 50% off. I didn't get anything but my husband picked up a really nice sweater. We then visited the Madewell a few doors down and they were offering an extra 40% off. But they didn't have much inventory.
ReplyDeleteAre there any % off coupons for Factory? If so, can you share? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteLast time I was in the store, they had sent back most of the sale merchandise. There was still a small sale section, but nothing like it was a couple of weeks ago.
ReplyDeletethere isn't much stock on sale on the website the morning? or did it just all sell out early?
ReplyDeleteI really need to learn to sleep in...I noticed it was 300+ before the update, but 400+ after the update. Just a small update today, from what I could tell.
DeleteI looked at the site at about 6:30 and there seemed to be a small update. I did see that the beaded rose necklace and bracelet were back. I am planning on going to Jcrew today (meeting a friend at the mall) but was there on Wednesday and the sale section was basically non-existent.
Deletecate's right about learning to sleep in.
DeleteWomens stock was at 375 before a small update brought it to 491. I do not recall seeing the stock that low in recent times. Patiently awaiting the return of B&M stock and new markdowns lol.
yes. stalking popbacks prevented me from sleeping in on saturday. i was dissapointed after waking up early and did not see anything:)
DeleteI did order something from that small update, the cashmere zip front hoodie in gray. A zip-front cashmere caridgan hoodie has been on my list for months (an old one is going to bite the dust soon). It won't ship until April 16th, but I don't care, the price came to $98 which isn't fabulous but still not bad for something I have really wanted. I don't know why this was on sale/promo, it seems new, but I'm not complaining!
DeleteI ordered the hoodie as well! lets hope it ships. The last two items I ordered from the sale that were wait listed were cancelled...Poppy Viv flats and Camp Popover in stripe. So disappointed because I really wanted both :(
DeleteOh no, LizT, that stinks. I don't think the hoodie was a pop-back so it will probably ship. There was a full size run, and I checked after I ordered it to see if the size I ordered disappeared from the list and it did not. The hoodie is not on the web site now, though. I'd love to be a fly on the wall of their inventory process.
DeleteI have the hoodie in two colors (heather dusk and heather caramel and it is one of my favorite cashmere sweaters, if not my favorite. It fits perfectly and in those colors doesn't pill (I wear the heather dusk constantly). I think it's a fabulous price as it never goes that low in price (I think the lowest price that I have seen it for is $129.99). Great score ladies!
DeleteEma I am glad to hear that. I hope it ships early!
DeleteWent to the Park Meadows, CO store, sale section has dwindled still 50% off. The SAs said all sale merchandise is shipping back to the warehouse next week, they are happy to see it go. I did get a February Style Guide which was not on display but was told New Arrivals will be out next Saturday. I must admit I went through it 3 times trying to find something to jump out at me. Lots of pastel colors which is nice, dots have been replaced by checks, pale shades of brocade, interesting capris if you like those. Noticed some colors are the same just new names, shallow sea is now timeless turquoise. Beautiful new liberty print, June's Meadow, navy background, in toothpick, shirt and Schoolboy. Also, a mixed stripe (looks black/white) Schoolboy which looks beautiful. Looks like the Jules has been replaced with Rosie which is equally as short, believe there have been reviews on that. But that is shown in a couple of fabrics. My new favorite No 2 Pencil for this season is in Sea Glass, will wait for it to go on sale. Word was minter...interesting mint is the color of the season
ReplyDeleteI went to the Robson st store in Vancouver last night. The sale section is still quite large but mostly larger and smaller sizes. There is quite a bit of the cashmere on sale. I picked up a cashmere tippi in vintage Kelly for 45$, a cashmere turtleneck in the flax colour for 70$ and a cashmere wrap also in the flax colour for 45$. My big purchase was the majesty pea coat in the fuchsia colour for $100. It was interesting that they also have a lot of early fall/winter items in stock. For example they had at least half a dozen of the herringbone sweater with the jewelled Peter Pan colour - at full price.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the Robson update! I haven't had a chance to pop by there since just after Christmas when they were running the 50% off sale prices promo. Besides the Majesty pea coat, were there many other coats on markdown? When I was there last, there weren't any coats on sale.
Delete@nance, went there this morning. Didn't see any other coats on sale. There were a bunch of toothpick/matchstick jeans/cords on sale, lots of cashmere like shima said,a few brocade dot skirts, tipped hacking jackets, wool Minnies in cabernet, tons of tees... Saw the new Coraline pumps and Liberty Cece's. New items are trickling in. Snagged a couple pairs of dark rinse bootcut jeans for a song, still FP on the site (eye roll).
DeleteHas anyone seen the beaded rose necklace? Would love a review on it! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI love my vPS! Just placed a pre-order for one of the SP13 Collection beauties with promo code FRIENDGIFT12 (20% off - not sure if it's just good in Canada. Try it out!) Also scored the Tile Necklace on sale + 40% off via WWFIFY. I have been obsessed with this necklace since I saw Jenna Lyons wearing it in the post-Inauguration interview that was posted on this site (thanks Alexis)! I love her!
ReplyDeleteFYI, tried the code and it does NOT work in the US. :(
DeleteOh no! Sorry to hear that. :(
DeleteI "discovered" another code, this one for Factory: "Facebook" gives you 20% off + free shipping on $100+. I used it for a non-FS item. (I didn't really "discover" it. This code was posted by another JCA a few months ago and I tried my luck, and somehow it works again now!)
Is anyone else getting VERY antsy to see the new arrivals in person?...
Anyone else get their new Style Guide today? Mine is all dog-eared already, I like a lot.
ReplyDeleteThere's a new sweater on the website--it's merino with a liberty collar! and the beaded rose necklace is back up!
ReplyDeleteI love both of those! Too bad I've sworn off shopping for a few weeks.
DeleteThe Columbus Circle NYC store has the new Tartine Satchel in black and color block (no blue). I saw two of each on disay. It's not as big of a bag as I expected and is really beautiful! They also had the scroll print Jules and shorts.
ReplyDeleteAnyone able to scan the feb catalog for those who have not received it ? thanks
ReplyDeleteHello JCAs! Just wondering if anyone here knows whether or not Madewell updates its sale section with pop-backs as frequently as J.Crew. I just missed an item that I really wanted but didn't get around to ordering until tonight. Crossing my fingers that I may wake up tomorrow and find my fashion heart's desire back in stock...
ReplyDeleteI picked up the new style guide at a factory store yesterday ... first time I have ever seen them there.
ReplyDeleteI have to say there is a LOT I LOVE in the retail line this time around, after a number of disappointing seasons. There are a lot of items that seem fresh and wearable to me yet classic enough to invest FP, and the styling isn't so freakish. I was delighted to see the return of the ribbon belts peeking through in a couple outfits - I adored them the first time around.
My JC purchases had ground to a halt, but I see more this time of what I love about the brand.
The Indianapolis store 317-848-2739 has toothpick green navy bow cords in sizes 27 (saw 3) and 1 size 32. They also have a number of the wool red plaid holiday Capris in sizes 0, 4, 8, 10 and 12.
ReplyDeleteHi, has anyone seen the Tabby merino wool sweater? I am looking for a medium and it looks like Bindi is also looking and she needs xs or small. TIA! :)
ReplyDeleteI think I saw one or two at the Santa Barbara, CA store. Can't recall sizes though. (805) 563-0373
DeleteI saw a few of them at the Vancouver BC store. I did not check sizes. They were full price which was 118$ cdn. Not sure if that helps if you are in the USA.
DeleteShekster, I saw a couple at Park Meadows, CO store (303 649 9620 ) last Friday, don't remember sizes but they were not marked on sale. HTH
ReplyDeleteThanks JRS, I really appreciate it. Maybe they will hit sale next week with the new roll-out.
ReplyDeleteIf anyone sees a fair isle ski sweater in their JC visits - size large - please let me know! :)
ReplyDeleteTwo days ago Pleasanton store had XS, S and M if anyone is looking for one!
Thanks!!
