J.Crew's Final Sale Just Got More Summer

J.Crew updated its sale section (click here) today. The new sign reads, "the Forever Summer Sale (we're in denial)". I am not going to lie, I was hoping to see some additional percent off in the final sale. So a new image got me excited and then disappointed. ;)

On a bright note, there are lots of new Fall items that are now on sale (which appeared in the sale section yesterday). :)

Will you be perusing the latest "Forever Summer Sale"? Are there any items you are hoping to get before they disappear?

  2. I was really excited about the new sale sign too! I can't seem to find anything new in it though.....

  3. Just checked out, the swim separates at $9.99 are a great deal!

  4. I am tempted by the bubble necklace for $69.99

  5. Dang! I had ordered several lomellina pieces yesterday at $19.99 each. I am off to beg for a PA! Thanks, Preppy Sue!

  6. I too jumped on the swimsuit wagon and got 2 suits including the Lomellina. What a deal for $19!! (reg price $115) Neither said Final sale when I checked out?? I also was sure there would be an additional 20% off today. I think that they should re-name the sale- forever summer inventory and absolutely need a big % off blowout. I mean really J crew it is OCTOBER!!!

  7. I was hoping to see that Final Sale was over...surely it can't last for too much longer.

  8. OT-

    If you're a Kate Spade fan, use code FALLFF09 for 30% off your entire order, incl sale items. Online only as far as I can tell. Good until 10/4.

  9. Thank you all so much for posting aboutthe bathing suits!! I am practically hyperventilating after seeing the Terra paisley went down from FP yesterday to $19.99!! Hope it actually comes along with the cover up....

  10. I am with FFM. I don't buy final sale anymore. I have held strong for the past 3 months. I am waiting for it to end to order.

  11. OT: Can anyone comment on the fit of the Heather Carbon Schoolboy blazer? The size 0 is on back order so I'm wondering if it is running big? Thanks for any help! :)

  12. jbird, I got that email too but the code won't work for me. I get an error messag eon the checkout page - code not valid. Did you actually use it?

    ReplyDelete
  13. Woo hoo! Just snagged six gorgeous new bathing suits (including the terra paisley, which I almost broke down and got just yesterday at full price, and a lomellina) and two pairs of fall pants for $150! And free shipping to boot! So nice to feel like you're getting an incredible deal.

  14. OMG the Ellora dress came back in size 10 and I managed to order it and check out! Went back right away and the page is displaying the "We're sorry..." message so I hope it is mine, at last. Loving the 60's shift style this year especially, with all the Mad Men retro influence on fashion. This print is so gorgeous IRL and looks amazing with my complexion. I have the blouse and bikini and now the dress. Hmm, obsess much?

    YES!!

  15. Thank you so much for mentioning the bathing suits! I got a bikini I'd been wanting all summer for $20 with free shipping. :)

  16. The evening primrose cardigan is available in size S online now if anyone is looking for it. I hope mine ships today!

  17. mommydearest - I tried the code and it didn't work for me either. I did find one for 25% off plus free shipping, and it worked just fine! Code is: GLAMBAG

    HTH!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Kat- is that for 25% off sale items?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Has anyone ordere the Terra print one piece? I liked it too but noticed the description states: "Due to the design of this print, no two pieces are alike." This would make me nervous since the print is placed just right on the model's swimsuit.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I caved. Can't pass up $9.99 swim pieces.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Hi Tracey - yep! I used it on the black Tarrytown Quinn. But you can only use it on one item. I tried to add something else and it didn't apply. I re-read the code and it does state that it can be applied to one item only.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Kat & Mommydearest - I just used the code for KS, and it worked, plus free shipping is automatic. I clicked through the email to get to the site, I'm not sure if that's how you get it to work. HTH!

    ReplyDelete
  23. I just placed an order yesterday and snagged the scalloped broadcloth shell, silk flower cami - among other things. I hope they actually ship! I am really tempted to go for one of these swimsuits though, I hear the one piece is making a comeback and I love J.Crew swim.

  24. I guess I must have drawn the long straw this time because 1. bathing suit I was looking for was available in a decent color for me in not one but two possible sizes 2. my items were not marked final sale 3. I got free shipping apparently! I spent over $50 and have a JC card, so I'm not sure if that makes a difference, but I'm pleased :)

  25. RE: KS F&F code,
    I cliked through the email, too and still couldn't get it to work. According to the email, the code is supposed to be good for your entire purchase (so sale also). I finally just called CS to place my order. Was on hold FOREVER. Finally got to a rep who said yes, the code wasn't working but she would either take my order over the phone or apply a credit if I had already checked out online. Now how is that for customer service, on top of an enticing sale? Wish all m favorite retailers were like this ~ahem~

  26. Did anyone else notice that the watercolor tortoiseshell skirt, item 17389, is back at full price?
    It had been sitting in the sale section for weeks at 69.99, and is now back up to 148.
    I find it really weird when they do this.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I ordered couple swimsuits... I'm hoping the paisley swimsuit would not look too weird with the print being awkward.

    Why don't J.Crew just lower prices in other stuff they've had for months now?

    ReplyDelete
  28. All of the swimwear is so cute, but I can't find any color bottoms to match the bandeau tops. So sad!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Hi all! None of the free shipping codes on the main JCA page are working for me despite a $200 order. Is anyone else having this problem?

    ReplyDelete
  30. still no edelyn or ink dot dress on sale :(

    ReplyDelete
  31. kMc, yes I noticed that yesterday, that's weird.

    I placed an order yesterday and got the scout chinos, the drawstring dress that finally went down to $29.99, derby clutch for an upcoming wedding and a sweater. I'm happy to see that the prices are the same today...

  32. Alexis, I just received a card from JCrew stating that as a way of saying thank you, they've created a VIP phone line just for me and free shipping thru 10/11. I am so excited! Did anyone else get this?

    ReplyDelete
  33. Mommydearest (and others):

    I didn't try to use the code, so I'm not sure why it's not working. Hope they fix it!

  34. Megan, I used MANHATTAN this morning and it worked for me.

  37. I think I missed something - why did everyone get free shipping with such low total amounts?

    ReplyDelete
  38. Aficionadas please help, I try to catch the Jackies on sale and fail constantly, one day they are here one day not. Sale Jackies are not linked to Jackie main page. What is the trick? I want peach color so much!

    ReplyDelete
  39. i too got the card in the mail about logging into my account and getting free shipping on any amount thru 10/11, plus they have created a new phone line as well. Alexis, I would scan it but my scanner is broken!! It's a little grey card, about 4X8", came in a non descrpit tan envelope that I almost threw away!!

  40. Snagged a Lomellina bikini, some belts, and some flippy floppies. Only the top & the sandals are FS. And yet I keep missing the merino petal scoopneck sweater- need a small, only a medium keeps popping back. Anyone want to sell? :)

    ReplyDelete
  41. PrettyBallerina, they are in the sale section (go to Sale, Woman, Swaters), but only the champagne in a XL is available right now. I would check again tomorrow early in the morning as they update the sale section almost daily and they often come back. Hope it helps!

  42. Thanks Joyce & JcrewLover!!! I just made your (exciting) news into its own post. :)

    ReplyDelete
  43. Ema thanks, it helped! Some time ago sale Jackies were with regular ones, and I just typed jackie in search and it did not help. Need to look for easy solutions!

  44. There is a golden roses dress in a size 8 in the sale section for $59.99, and the golden roses renee coat in size 10 for $199.99. Search for "golden roses"

    Also the eliza tank is there in espresso in size 4. I already have that color or else I'd be all over it!

  45. I bought the liberty wiltshire underwire bikini top today... and yesterday, some socks. Tempted to get another bathing suit, we'll see if I can resist...

    Anyone have thoughts on the D-cup underwire tops? I wear a 34D but I am considering getting 32D, because once I ordered a D cup bathing suit from victoria's secret in my normal bra size, 34D, and it was too big :(

    ReplyDelete
  46. Oh that final sale never seems to end does it! I caved for a derby clutch and a couple of other pop-back pieces.

    ReplyDelete
  47. IRL,
    I am NOT ordering the terra paisley suit for that reason: the pattern issue esp. with final sale. Placement of the pattern is important esp. with a swimsuit that you want to be flattering. Your comment also made me look twice at the pattern and the lower half--looks--well, a bit suggestive of female organs. I would not feel comfortable in it. My hubby laughed and said No way for me to get it either:)

  49. Does anyone have any thoughts on the garment-dyed perfect shirt? What is the fit like? I'm thinking of ordering an XS (which is what I get for tees), but I'm worried it might not be fitted enough (I have no curves...haha).
