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.
I placed a rather large order from Kate Spade due to 25% off and a gift card to spend. I love, love the bee cardigan. It is so cute. Fits a little on the large size but one size down was a bit too small. Also love the short sleeve bow sweater in turquoise. This will be such a staple all year round. The everyday tee in black stripe is going back. Makes me dizzy just looking at the pattern. Finally the pinstripe ruffle back shirt (sleeveless) is a gorgeous pattern but I feel a little pregnant in it, so I'm undecided on keeping it. It looks nice with white jeans but with a pencil skirt it looks pretty poofy in front. Tucking it in makes the back look all weird due to the ruffle.
ReplyDeleteExtra 40% off sale items at Anthropologie. Discount applied at checkout, no code necessary.
ReplyDeleteHas anyone seen this metallic cardigan at BR. I tried it on today and love the cut and length, but can't quite figure out the colour. It's called "gold bridge" but it's not a strong gold, it looks kind of pewter in the store light. I don't wear grey or black, so I'm not sure what to wear it with, I'd like to style it with jeans for everyday wear. I didn't have time to try it on with anything else at the store. I wasn't sure whether to post here or in Help Style Me since this isn't a J.Crew piece.
ReplyDeleteOops....here is the link for the piece:

Hi shopgrrrl. That looks pretty. It reminds me of a subtle version of one that J. Crew did awhile back. Click here for a Google search I did. You should be able to pick out some basic outfit ideas from all of the images.
DeleteThanks, Gigi, that was fast! The J.Crew version definitely looks more gold than the BR sweater, I vaguely remember it now that you've reminded me. BR didn't have it in-store, but online I see the sweater comes in navy as well, so maybe I will wait for the navy one to drop in price as it will be easier to work with than the gold bridge.
DeleteI've shared my weekend list of sales & deals from retailers around the web, as well as my personal picks from each store in this post.
ReplyDeleteHi girls! I shared a couple of fabulous finds in this post on my blog today for those interested. Hope you'll stop by for a visit! :)
