  1. Maybe I'm just being nitpicky here, but- how can J Crew say it's not putting retail merchandise in the Factory stores when this happens?

    I haven't been to my outlet in awhile so I'm going to see if I can hunt this version down - factory site shows it "marked down" from the identical retail price of $75. Factory says cotton/poly blend but my retail edition is 100% cotton. If they remade it without the stupid extreme crop length I might just replace my old one (although it's warm as heck and cute over a button up).

    1. Actually, excuse me, a correction: the Factory version is "valued" at 72.50 or a whopping 2.50 lower. LOL.

    2. That's lame. I can't stand how JCrew recycles their designs from retail to factory. I haven't bought anything that was remade to a factory version..it's only a matter of time.

    3. I emailed Factory and the small (for example) is 23.25 against Jcrew's 21 inches, so slightly less cropped

  2. I ordered two items from Madewell, they both shipped from Lynchberg yesterday but in 2 separate packages, two different ways. No wonder they have financial problems, spending all their money on shipping since it was free for me.

  3. The VPS position in our store was eliminated. The sales people said that was happening in most stores. Has anyone else noticed this? It would have been nice if they notified her clients. We were wondering what happened to her.
