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 SALE, or to see some NEW 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!!! :)

  1. Went birthday present shopping for my daughter, but naturally picked up the Merci tee, and two new items (not yet online): "Forest Flower Necklace" for $49.50 and "Jeweled Llama Sweater" for $98.00 for myself.

  2. Hmm - there's a category on the website for "50% off end-of-season items". Many of the items were released very recently in fall roll-outs. Do we think that this will become a semi-permanent sale category?

    To my eyes the category is filled with Collection items that are not selling combined with nice but summery items (half packet dress and ponte dresses) that were released in September, long after some folks were done with buying lightweight clothes.

    And JC needs to put some of these items out of their misery. The acid daisy shorts, with their 1" inseam and $129 price tag, are not going to sell in November (especially in larger sizes).

    1. If you can fit into smaller sizes, zara online has good options and free ship and returns! Just bought Zara girls fur vest with belt in natural for $39.90. I'm a jcrew size 00/XS and the girls XL (12-13yrs) was too large...fit more like a jcrew size S/M

    1. Hi tcv14 - I'm actually wearing them now. I thought they fit TTS when I bought them, but after wearing them a few times they definitely stretched in the waist and I'm thinking maybe I should have sized down. They still work with a belt, and I like the wash - maybe I'll grab a size down if they ever go down enough in price. HTH!

    2. I don't know if they are the same ones, but I tried on the straight leg jeans in the store very recently and they ran quite large. 28 was the right size for me (still roomy) when I'm wearing 29 or 30 otherwise.

      although, i wish they had emailed me the rewards info too (like they usually do) so that i could have used it with my last purchase :/

    2. Call them and ask them to apply it to your recent order.

  7. I received my rewards card today too. Nice surprise. I didn't think I'd racked up enough to earn one from the Land of Capri Pants and Jeweled Sweats. Has anyone seen the verdigris cashmere sweater? I'm wondering if the color is chalky instead of a vivid, clear medium green.

  8. Stores have mad additional price cuts (which did not seem to be parked on tags). I bought a Jackie cardigan today for $29.99 less the 40%!

  9. I visited the store and bought the Caudalie hand creme for $7.99 + 40% off. And that's all, folks!

    Review of the patch-pocket pencil skirt, still available in navy.
