Seek & Find: Will you visit J.Crew this 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 stopping by a J.Crew store this weekend to see what's available in the Summer sale, or to see some new Fall 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 is carrying an additional percent off sale. Thanks in advance!!! :)

P.S. I noticed that many of you have already been reporting sale items (and in which stores) in other posts which by the way "thank you!" :) I really appreciate how helpful we are for each other!

  2. no additional % off today, but some new arrivals were in -- the new ruffled cardi, some new belts (including the studded ones), and I picked up my 4th fall item -- a gorgeous ruched scarf/wrap, listed at $45 - came in a mulberry, avocado/olive, cream, charcoal, and (the one I got!) BUTTERSCOTCH!

    I specifically did not see the new colors of the Frances, so feeling very unique in my sage green : ) (IRL pics on my blog)

    have a great weekend everyone!

  6. Can anyone please tell me how does the Aurora T-strap heels fit? I usually wear a size 6.5 for cover-toes heels and 6 for peep toes. Do I need to size up or down? Just want to make sure I get the right size... TIA!!

  8. Is anyone going to an outlet/factory store this weekend? I am looking for the watercolor print scarf seen here on Summerilla. If anyone finds it and wouldn't mind letting me know (christy.rivers@gmail.com) I'd be so appreciative! :)

  10. Anyone looking for the space-dyed cardigan - KOP has a pile of them. Not sure of sizes, but it's literally a stack so there is a good chance the size you want is there. 610-265-0210.

  11. Also, I will be returning some items. If anyone is interested in the following let me know (both BNWT):

    Dressy jersey Pilar dress size xs, plum raisin. *This size and color combo is currently sold out!!!*

    Cambridge Cable v-neck size small, plum raisin.

  12. Lilac Cupcake--how much is the space dyed cardi in store?

    ReplyDelete
  13. MCC: they were not in the sale section, so they might be FP ... but, according to CS, if you tell them they are $79.99 online they should mark it down for you. HTH!

  14. I'm doing a super-clean this weekend, so I'll be to grungy to go look at clothes. I'm not too yucky to check the sale online for my stupid cotton corsage cardigan, though. That's the only thing I'll lift my ban for this month, although seeing those Cosette mary janes on sale did tempt me a bit.

    If anyone sees the cotton corsage cardi in L or even XL in their store in black or navy, could you please post? Thanks a million. This is turning into a bit of a crewsade for me, I even dreamed I was wearing it in black to a goldfish funeral last night.

  15. I'm taking a journey up north to Phoenix to do some shopping at Ikea and will hit the outlets as well. It's a two hour drive so I am hoping to find something good! I will report back about what's on offer at the J.Crew outlet.

    ReplyDelete
  16. I received an interesting email from JCrew yesterday reminding me that my rewards card has to be used by 9/15 and in the email was a one-time use code for free shipping with no minimum! I was so excited! But a little bummed that it sounds like I'll miss the new fall roll-out by a few days.

  17. CheesyGoodness-
    Try the San Diego, CA store. They had a few black corsage cardis left the other day. I don't know which sizes, but they did have several. HTH!

  18. AppGal: I just deleted my other comments and emailed you directly about the scarf. :)

  19. Ooh! I picked up a chartreuse studded skinny belt last weekend. Love it! The fact that it was $35 didn't hurt either - quick, inexpensive update..

    ReplyDelete
  20. smarty, thanks so much for the tip! I called and they only have S and M left. I was SO SURE I could get a popback as soon as the 20% off was done today. So the search continues..

    ReplyDelete
  21. CheesyGoodness:
    Costa Mesa, CA had a lot of black corsage cardigans left when I was there this Wednesday. Hope you find one.

    Lilac cupcake: do you have to size down on the space dyed cardigan? I had ordered a small before and it seemed a bit big...

    ReplyDelete
  22. On vacation this week and stopped in yesterday to the Hyannis, MA J.Crew (at Cape Cod Mall). Wonderful SA named Mimi was super helpful. Lots of swirling flower tees on sale and tanks as well as swirling ruffle cardis in the blush color and lots of chinos, corsage cardis (black) and tons of flower flip-flops. I got some nice sale items and one new merino sweater -- not online yet -- v-neck and ruffles as well as my much coveted boyfriend military jacket in the surplus grey color! Yeah! Nice store...very helpful and pleasant SAs there! They confirmed new roll-out in stores by Tuesday/Wednesday.

  23. jcmama: I have the space-dyed cardi in my regular size, and the fit is great on me. I would say TTS.

    If I were going to layer anything substantial underneath, I would actually size up so as not to stretch the arms, althought I would be concerned that the body would be too baggy. But since it's lightweight I don't put more than a cami or tee underneath so it's perfect. HTH!

  24. I keep missing this on the site, but I'm looking for the Tissue Silk Trim cardigan in XS, Light Amethyst...if anyone spots one in their store lemme know!

  25. Hello everyone,

    Doubt I'll make it to a B&M this weekend, but I did pull the trigger on the watercolor tortoiseshell silk/wool skirt last night. Initially, I didn't notice this skirt at all but took a look at it after hearing good things about it from a few JCAs, decided I {loved} it, couldn't stop thinking about it for several days, and finally placed my order at about 11:59pm last night. I'll post a review once I receive it in case any of you are considering buying it too.

    Hope you all have a great weekend!

  26. My PS just called me, she has the new black/white tweed skirt and is messengering it over to me in my size this afternoon.... excited for this one, and looking forward to the blue tweed one coming out as well....

  27. I was in the rockingham park nh store two days ago and the store did not look great. There was NO sale section and low stock on sept arrivals. Did not have school boy or professor jacket. Very dissapointing

    ReplyDelete
  28. Stacy - I believe the new rollout is next Tue or Wed. According to someone I spoke with there will be consistent new shipments now through the holidays. The SA rattled off about 3 between now and Thanksgiving and then 2 or 3 after that. Not sure how accurate that is. Also not sure if they will simply receive a certain number of boxes/items each time and mix them in with whatever is on the floor. OR if there will be massive rollouts like the one in July where the whole storefront has been swapped for new items.

  29. Does anyone know when the next additional % off final sale will come up? There are a few things I want to order, but I might wait if there is another promo coming along...! Thanks so much.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Cheesy -- There are a bunch of black corsage cardis (in L or XL) and one navy (not sure of the size) in the Nashville, TN store (at Green Hills). Hope you find what you are looking for!

  31. Have any Philly natives been to the Center City store recently? I'm curious if they the ribbon front tops or the french terry tie-neck pullover avail.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Thanks, Carole! I just called and there are S and XS left, if anyone is looking for those sizes. I guess I'll keep my fingers crossed for a popback or fixate on something else for awhile. Or maybe I should do the sensible thing and go through last year's stuff and get re-excited about things I've already paid for... but where's the fun in that? JK

    ReplyDelete
  33. jcmama, I called Cost Mesa and they're totally sold out! Thanks for helping, though! If I hadn't tried this on instore I would think it was a figment of my imagination.

  34. I saw Sumerilla's watercolor floral scarf at the No Conway, NH outlet last weekend (Sun). HTH!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Also, when is the website supposed to be updated with the next fall rollout? Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  36. i would love for someone to find a spectacular sale price on either:
    *twist sash dress (currently online $149)
    *knotted cotton sateen dress (currently online $69)

    i'm preggers and won't be able to wear either for many many months so i can only rationalize my purchase if it's a killer price.

    thanks.

  37. I spent a restless night dreaming about the wall of shoes and the corsage cardigan, so I woke up early and claimed my prize! The cardi popped back in the navy and I let out an early morning whoop of joy! Thanks so much everybody for keeping an eye out for me, this blog attracts the nicest people!

    It's a multiple exclamation point morning!!!

  38. CheesyGoodness: Congrats! Visualization WORKS! :)

  39. AppGal - I guess we should collectively visualize a fall promo %. *lol*

  40. Went to the Beachwood Oh B&M after I had to return some stuff to another store. All I got was the navy linen tweed mica mini for $19.99... someone must have returned it. It's cute enough for that price, and hopefully I'll wear it a few times before it gets too cold to do so!

  41. I'm a sucker for fall colors and clothes, and couldn't resist placing an order this weekend (I didn't do much shopping for Labor Day), especially as the weather here (MA) is starting to get cooler and fall-like!!

    I ordered:

    Cotton Long vneck Cardi in copper (the long one with 2 front pockets)- This is actually an exchange, I ordered my usual size (S), and it was very boxy and sloppy looking.

    Paisley perfect shirt in pumpkin- Excited for this!

    Cambridge Cable Crew in plum raisin- Last week I ordered one in sage, and I love it! Feels more soft and substantial than last years version, although I could be imagining it, as mine from last year is a bit worn (Pilled) out.

    Perfect Crew LS Tee in rust- love these autumn colors

    Perfect pencil skirt in cinnamon- Couldnt resist, even at full price!! Ive heard good reviews though, and I cant wait to wear this color!!

    Some other items I've tried recently:

    Cashmere Shawl Popover Sweater- great sweater, runs a tiny bit large (good for layering), but I wouldnt size down. I got mine in heather aqua-- Not sure if I like it with my complexion, so may exchange for a different color. The cashmere feels softer and denser to me than last years, but again, it's impossible to compare, as I dont have a new item from last year

    Carlin Coat- Have been eyeing, and stock has been dwindling!! I have not tried this on, but I called CS and they told me they would be receiving another shipment (for online) on the 28th-- So this may also apply to other items, as well

    I also have bootcut cords and a boyfriend-esque sweater on the way from M+O, I'll post a quick review when they arrive!


    HTH someone!!

    : )

  42. I went it to return a few items at the Mall in Columbia and bought the black/white/grey tweed pencil skirt...it fit TTS and is quite soft! They had only a few left...I was lucky they had my size. The SA said they were flying out the door.

  44. I think I saw signs at the Cambridgeside Galleria saying that the Eden blazer was now $118, but I was on my way out and didn't look too closely. Has anyone else seen this?

    And they had some of the doggie tees when I was there, but again, I wasn't looking around carefully, so not sure about sizes or other hot items available, sorry! The sale section was pretty small overall.

    ReplyDelete
  45. TUMC - Someone mentioned that the Eden was going on promo soon, so I guess your eyesight was correct :-)
