  1. A few things are showing up if you search by the item - a shirting hen sweater dress, a pleated eyelet skirt, everyday cashmere graphic sweaters, graphic tees, and a pretty contrast shirt dress.

    1. That pleated eyelet skirt (H7378) looks so pretty...but $298 for poly? Ugh.

    2. I saw that! Poly in spring/summer? Ugh. But the embroidered skirt showed up and that is cotton. But, which color? Love them both!

    3. I find these gradual roll out of new items confusing...but I always love seeing new product, so...

      I'm not typically a graphic tee person, but I think the artwork on the Sunbathers T-shirt (H7864) is quite cute.

      I love the raglan sweatshirt shape / style of the "French fruit" series of everyday cashmere crewneck sweaters ((H9064 / H8995 / H9062). This shape is right up my alley...but I wish they had done this sweater in a plain version in a variety of colours. The graphics on these don't speak to me personally.

      Like others, I also think the Embroidered Midi Skirt (H7769) is pretty -- I am also interested in the leopard sandals shown with the black version, but I don't see them on the site yet!

  2. I received the Drake horse print popover and it is lovely. It is sheer (my only complaint) but it's dark enough that it should not be a problem. Lovely colors. Can't wait to wear it with white jeans. It's a classic piece. I hope they have more collaborations. I buy mostly those pieces now - as the quality seems to be better with the Drake and Liberty clothes.

    1. @sega61 - Thanks for the review. I've been seriously considering ordering that top.

    2. I bought that top as well and love it. Agree it's a bit sheer but have been wearing a cami with it so no issues. The print is so pretty.

  3. SALE ALERT: I noticed a few new arrivals in sale. Including the shirt dress in black and olive, a knit dress, the short sleeve open back jumpsuits. If you're interested in those items they're all 35% or so off, and then an additional 40% off if you buy four items.

    1. Thanks Suz! I just checked out with the jumpsuit, wide leg crepe pants, jeans, and a pair of dreamy pj bottoms. The price on the jumpsuit made me bite. With rewards and promo, I couldn’t pass it up.

  4. The brown cardboard bounceback cards are back at J Crew. Also be on the lookout for the card with a picture of jeans on one side and a 15% off code good for use online or in the store, good until March 5.

    1. Oh crap, I think I got that but that extra 15 must be really, really fine print.

      Delete
    2. I just read my card with the jeans on it and it doesn't say anything about an extra 15a% off, it just mentioned donating used jeans for $20 full price jeans,

    3. I got the jeans card from a SA in the store when I returned part of an online order. I asked for a brown bounceback card because I could see them right on top of the register and was given the other one instead as it was better. I'm wondering if they're going to put them in online orders but then again they're only good until March 5, which really isn't that far away.

      Delete
    4. I know what card you're referencing (donating old jeans) that has been in the online orders recently. I just threw one away last night! :)

      Delete
    5. There are multiple cards. I recently received one for an extra 20% off (hooray!) that expires the end of March but most of the ones I've seen are the jeans cards with $20 off for donating jeans and no percentage off.

      Delete
    6. I'll keep my eyes peeled for "good" cards in my online orders. All I've gotten so far is the donating jeans one.

      Delete
  5. Did anyone else get a new code for 40% off through March 1st? Title of the email was something like “Still thinking about it? Now it’s 40% off!”

    I wonder if it will be good on new arrivals.

    1. I just got the same email. I got it shortly after placing an order with the current promo for four items 40% off. One of the items I ordered was the drakes pajama top in green. I was so excited to see this on sale and included for the promo!

      Delete
    2. Oh, I never thought about the fact that I received it shortly after placing an order. I’m hoping I’ll be able to score some new arrivals with it, but it does say “select items.” We’ll see!
