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 SUMMER 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. Anyone want to chime in on how their pave link bracelet is holding up over time? I'm trying to decide if buying the real deal is worth it (next fp promo) or buying knock off. I'm also considering the multistrand pearls too. Any input of owners who have worn them a bit-I would love some input! Thanks!

    1. Lizriden I have both the pave link bracelet and pearl strand necklace from J Crew and love them both. I wear both in constant rotation. The cost per wear at this point must be pennies on the dollar. I would stick with getting the J Crew versions rather than knock off. I have a knock off pave link necklace and the gold clasp has turned color. Since it is a necklace you can't see it but it would be very noticeable on a bracelet. My J Crew bracelet has not turned color and I've had it for about 1 year. I also find clasps and construction can be subpar on knock offs which is to be expected and may be fine for trendier items with a shorter life span. Both are classic pieces that I think are worth the investment at FP with promo. HTH!

    2. I have had mine for 6 months and it has been very solid. I think it is worth it.

    3. liztriden: I have had my J.Crew pavé link bracelet for almost a year now and it is holding up very well, with almost daily wear. I get compliments on it every time I wear it, too. I think if you go for the 'real deal', you won't be disappointed.

    4. Hi liztriden. I have the multi-strand pearl necklace and where it at least 2-3 times per week. It is holding up very well. I love it so much and worth every penny.

    6. Thanks everyone for the feedback! I think I will take the plunge on both of these items. Now, if only they would do a fp promo!

  3. I went on Friday with the sale going on. My local store had a few linen pineapple tees in gold, which were returns. I did end up getting one in size small, though, because I had missed out online. I also got the Tippi with shoulder embroidery, which at the time was marked at $69.99 + %30 off. With the return that I made, I got both for ~$35.

    1. Thanks, it's nice to see the looks broken out like that. I wonder if this is something new they are doing or have they been doing it before this rollout?

    3. Cate, I'm not quite sure. I follow them on Facebook, which is where I noticed this, but unless I just haven't noticed it before, this might be the first time. Sorry I can't be of more help!

  6. Here is a 30% off code for factory that I am not going to use: FMCP4W4LX. Maybe all the codes that have been sent out are 30%?
