  1. Absolutely love the prints in the latest rollout, especially the Midnight Floral. It has that specialness I've always loved about J Crew prints. Even the Roz Floral at Factory was beautiful recently and a way better dupe of retail prints than usual IMO.

    Happy to see JC getting their game back on something they can do better than anyone in the business!

  2. Love to see that the dropped shoulders and exposed zippers are being used more sparingly on this rollout.

  3. Has anyone received their Birthday reward? If so, what do you think of what the card says??? This is what mine says on the front, "Happy Whatever Age You Wish You Were" It is a $25.00 off $100.00 purchase. Wish they had just said Happy Birthday with a $25.00 gift card period. I wanted to love it...Really I did. Instead it made me feel like they think I am old and I should wish I was young again and besides I have a half dozen of the $20.00 off $100.00 purchase that I can still use for another month. This was not special. Sorry to be a downer on the love post.

    1. that is kind of a downer. it should just be $X off or X% off... and just say happy birthday... no need to try to be all cute about it.

    2. I didn't even know they sent out birthday "rewards". i've been a card member forever and have never received anything.

    3. BTW, the $25.00 card is only good for one month, June 1-June 30th. It's only $5.00 more than the cards they are giving away like candy and are good until July 4th. This is the first one I ever got so maybe you'll get one too.

  4. As I was checking out at the Short Hills, NJ store this weekend, the SA asked me if I was an educator. I gave the response I always do, which is "no, I work for a nonprofit." I was blown away when he gave me the 15% off! A manager was standing nearby who said, "hey, it's the holiday weekend." Plus they stacked it with the % off sale. Made my afternoon!

  5. I'm loving that more styles seem to be available in tall sizes lately. And color choices in expanded sizing seem to be more on par with what's offered in the standard sizes. However, it does seem many tall sizes are selling out super fast. I'm curious if they are that popular or if they are making an extremely limited run of the extended sizes.

    1. I like tall in many of the tops and pants because.....many of the crop pants i prefer almost full length and tops are so short that I also prefer alittle more length in most of these. J Crew make items better proportioned or I'll be buying everything in tall. I am 5'5" and of average build.

    3. I'm 5' 10" and noticed the tall sizes sell out fast too. I think as the above commenter noted, regular people buy the tall sizes so they can have normal length pants (and skirts). Take note JCrew, bring back more regular length pants! I like a slightly cropped pant too, but not 12 months a year.

  6. Agree, buy tall pants in crops, as i prefer full length, especially for work
