Weekly Share: Other JCrew-like Retailers

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. Visited Gap tonight to do a return and purchased the Printed Roll-sleeve dress in Indigo Polka Dot. I thought it ran a little large so took an XS, just for reference it runs short, all dresses were $40.

    1. Another update. I am loving some of the summer styles at Gap recently, compared to the overpriced and uninspired items at J Crew. The above dress was included in the in store 30% off sale items last night and I repurchased the dress for $28. Also, if you are looking for a cute unstructured jacket, the Tweed Jacket in Indigo Check #451716 was on sale for $33. with additional 30% off, really cute with neon partial lining and piping. The light and dark denim jackets were on sale for $34 prior to 30% off.

  2. Banana Republic - BRWED40 gets 40% off one regular price item. Also good in-store. There will likely be promo signage, no printout necessary.

  3. Hi, all. The big end of season sale started at Boden on Sunday. I wrote a blog post on the sale here.

    On Monday I wrote a Boden Weekly Review Roundup that had links to a lot of reviews for the items currently in the sale, lots of the Boden fans who blog have recently put a lot of photos up, so the sale was a great excuse to get my bottom in gear and write the darn post already. ;)

  4. Gap has their "Summer Must Haves" on sale ($10 tees, $20 shorts), plus you can get an additional 30% off (in stores) your purchase if you're a cardholder. Things are definitely priced to move there - and babyGap as well. I got the little one a cardigan, knit pants, and a swimsuit for $9 total. Prices are way lower in store than online, so if you're looking for anything I'd recommend checking a B&M first.

  6. Talbots - $59.99 dress sale ends tomorrow. I'm a fan of sheaths, so I'm interested in this ponte shift. J Crew lovers check out the gallery tweed sheath, $53.99.
