Happy New Year's Eve! {celebrating with J.Crew?}
Happy New Year J.Crew Aficionadas!
I want to take a moment to wish everyone a wonderful new year! {yey!} I look forward to celebrating the up-coming 2014 J.Crew collections with you all. :)
As usual, this post is to find out what everyone is planning to wear tonight. I know I have mentioned this before, but I also really enjoy these posts. I find it interesting to see how other Aficionadas and Aficionados style certain pieces, providing me wonderful ideas for future outfits. :) So for this post, what we are planning to wear during New Years Eve and/or New Years Day? :)
As for me, I plan on wearing J.Crew's Zig Zag Sequin Tee, Chambray Button-Down Shirt, Pixie Pants, and Lula Glitter Ballet Flats. That or a long sleeve cotton tee, fleece jacket, and J.Crew's signature leggings. I have a sneaky feeling it is going to be the latter. ;)
What are you planning to wear this New Year (Eve or Day)? Are you planning to go "head to toe" J.Crew or parts J.Crew?

J.Crew Updates Website {last week} with New Arrivals!
"Thanks!" to many of you, including Kyle (in this post), who let us know that J.Crew had an update to its website (click here to view online) last Friday. Apologies for not creating a dedicated post about it sooner. I think I was soooo disappointed by the return of "Final Sale", that I did not even bother to check out the rest of the site. ;)
There are some new arrivals for men (click here) & women (click here). {wahoo!} It looks like Crewcuts (click here) has been updated, but not the J.Crew Collection (click here).
The Holiday catalog (click here to view) is still up. However, the latest January catalog is not. "Thanks!" to many of you, including Ina Mack (in this post), who let us that J.Crew posted several images of the newest catalog over at Pinterest (click here to view).
As many of you have noticed and mentioned, this catalog is one of the thinnest (as in, not a lot of pages) we have seen from J.Crew. Plus, the catalog is a little boring.
What items are you most excited about and why? Which items are you surprised (or not surprised) to see? Which items did you hope would be included? Were you expecting a bigger roll-out? Also, did you receive the latest catalog? :)

As far as the new arrivals goes... Maybe it's just me, but I am not
that excited by much this time around. The only thing that caught my
eye was the Sperry Top-Sider® for J.Crew Authentic Original Bow Boat
Shoes (item 07508;
$98.00). However, I own my fair share of Sperry for J.Crew shoes, and
can't justify purchasing another pair because of the {totes adorbs}
grosgrain ribbon laces. Well.... maybe. ;)

J.Crew's Final Sale is Back {boo!}
"Thanks!" to many of you, who shared the following {not-so-great} news with us.
The Grinch strikes again at J.Crew! :( J.Crew has brought back their dreaded Final Sale (click here to shop online).
As far as promotions goes... J.Crew is still offering to take an additional 40% off sale items with code SHOPHAPPY. This offer now expires January 7, 2014.
I checked out the sale section and I did not notice any significant price decreases. So I could get the same items yesterday, at the same prices, with the option to return. But today, no returning allowed. Ugh.
On a related note, many of you have mentioned that the in store prices for sale items are priced lower (before any promotion applied) than its online counterparts. It definitely is worth a visit to the local store, especially since you can see the merchandise before purchase.
Will you be checking out the Sale section? Are there any items you are hoping to see or to get? Does your local B&M have "40% final sale" as well?

Extended! 30% Off Full Price & 40% Off Sale Items
"Thanks!" to many of you, who let us know about the following news this morning.
Which leads me to my next question, what do you think the next promotion will look like? Will it be another "an additional x% off final sale?" That is what I am leaning towards. But you never know for sure with our beloved J.Crew! ;)
J.Crew is extending their offer to take an additional 30% off full price and 40% off sale items with code GIFTNOW. This offer expires today, December 26, 2013.
I have definitely purchased my fair share online during this promotion in the last week. Why? Because I just know that the dreaded "Final Sale" is lurking in the shadows. I need to buy now and keep what works, and more importantly, return what does not.
Which leads me to my next question, what do you think the next promotion will look like? Will it be another "an additional x% off final sale?" That is what I am leaning towards. But you never know for sure with our beloved J.Crew! ;)

latest promotion? What are your thoughts on this sale? Do you know when "Final Sale" will be back? What are the in-store promotions looking like?
J.Crew Factory: Early Access {30% Off & Free Shipping}
"Thanks!" to many of you, who shared the following news/email from J.Crew Factory with us.
J.Crew Factory is once again offering a sneak peek at the latest arrivals with prices up to 30% off! They are also throwing in free shipping (no min!). Both these offers are just for today! So check your email to see if you got the invite.
While on this topic of J.Crew Factory, I noticed a few things:
Have you received this email? Will you be taking advantage of this promotion? Any items you are interested in? Should you purchase items during the sneak peek or should you wait? Please share!

While on this topic of J.Crew Factory, I noticed a few things:
- Some of the new arrivals already made it to the regular website. Whoops! I noticed the Factory Intarsia Charley Sweater in Lobster (item 48693), as well as the Factory Printed Tissue Scarf (item 17552), this morning prior to receiving the email. Not a big deal. Thought it was interesting.
- There are a few things I would like to get. But should I buy now or wait? I am struggling with this one. I already noticed a few things have sold out. (I know, crazy!) However, J.Crew Factory offered better deals the day after the last few sneak peeks. What are your thoughts on this?

I am crushing on the The Bow Tie Skimmer (item 09118), that is on sale from $118 to $59.99 (before promotion). Personally, I find Madewell's flats are not as comfortable as J.Crew's flats. However, these are such a darling pair that I might have to get them! ;)

If you are stopping by a J.Crew store this weekend to see what's available (if anything!) in the SALE, or to see some NEW 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!

J.Crew Sale Continues: 30% Off & Free Shipping
J.Crew sent an email this morning reminding customers they are offering an additional 30% off & free shipping at J.Crew (both online and in stores) with code GIFTNOW. The additional percent offer expires December 24, 2013 (and free shipping on any order expires today!)
What else? There are over 400 new styles added to the Sale section (click here to shop online) section online this morning. YEY! Lots of merchandise for everyone (1200+ for Women and 580+ for Men). From the looks of it, things are moving out relatively quickly.
When checking out the items, I noticed the Liberty Pajama Set in Katie Ann Floral (item 07677) which is on promotion from $198 to $158. Still too expensive for me to justify a purchase. However, it is gorgeous!
Incidentally, is it just me or are we all a bit shopped out lately? From the comments, it is starting to feel that way. (I wasn't sure if it was just me and I was just seeing what I related to.) I am still checking out J.Crew, and purchasing a random item or two, but no where near the levels I did a few months ago (or even this time last year). All the promotions have been nice, but nothing I am overly excited about is pulling me in.
Will you be taking advantage of this latest promotion? What are your thoughts on the new markdowns to sale? Are you still buying as much at J.Crew lately? Share your thoughts!
