Sought & Found: Did you visit J.Crew this {past} 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 stopped by a J.Crew store this past 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 was/ is carrying an additional percent off sale. Thanks in advance!!! :)

  1. Didn't make it to the clearance store this past weekend. It didn't sound like the selection was that great. I will be going this weekend for sure regardless.

  4. This is off topic, but I received an ad for Madewell today that has a code for $25 off $100 or more. It looked kind of like a newspaper and I was getting ready to toss it in the recycling bin when I noticed the coupon.

    1. Oh cool! Madewell seems to do promos less frequently so that is definitely a nice find.

  5. I got the jackie herringbone cardigan and the paris tee today with the promo. I used part of my rewards card. I liked the way they looked together in the style guide. The tee is back ordered but I don't really mind. I have the NY tee that I can wear in the meantime. The new stuff is in stores today.

    1. I liked this pairing, too. Nice score, getting the pieces on sale and using your rewards card.
      What did you think of the new items? Anything catch your eye?

    2. Mostly the shoes...I am sure I will end up with a boat load of stuff but I will wait for a good promo or sale for sure!

    1. Even though I don't need one, I'm curious to see that City Trench in person (unlikely I'd buy it, but only because I still have a perfectly good one.) I can't tell if it's lined or not, and the site doesn't say. I'm also curious about that button-front skirt in double-serge wool (that Blue color is very striking!)

      Another item that I've been eyeing is that garment-dyed skirt in stretch twill -- I believe that item is from the previous roll-out, but has been backordered for a while. I'm actually really curious about this one because after talking to Customer Service for measurements, I couldn't begin to guess which size to try it in (my usual one seemed way off.) Also, knowing that it doesn't come in Petite means that I'd have to chop off a good 4 inches, just to get it to hit below the knee.

      Silk Margot tank (name?) looks beautiful, but I have lots of similar blouses like that so not in market for that at the moment.

      Either way, it's always fun when there is a new rollout and I'm looking forward to seeing what else I might have missed! (Oh, I'm becoming more and more interested in that Signet bag, has lots of good reviews and the leather looks good in person.)

    2. I'm curious about the city trench too. I think I see a striped lining in the online photo, but I'm not sure. I do need a trench for fall, so if there's a decent promo tomorrow, I'll probably try it.

    3. The city trench does look nice, I don't need one otherwise I'd be interested. I'm interested in the Margot tank but I recall selling my silk Jcrew Victoria ruffle tank from a few years ago because I never wore it. It's hard to think of fall when it's sweltering hot here but I'm excited for the rollout.
      I'm hoping for a promo tomorrow but wouldn't be surprised if it's only free shipping.

  7. Stopped by to do returns today after work. My store was putting out new roll out. Glanced quickly as I did not have time to try anything. Little disappointed in quality of their silk-- almost looked polyester. I hope that now they have a great designer they do not spoil it with skimping on quality. Picked up catalog and posted on Instagram
    "ymous1975". Main color schemes pink and blue. Enjoy!

    1. Thanks for posting the catalogue pics! The patterns and colors on the Drake's prints are stunning. Looking forward to seeing the items with these prints.
      Also like a number of the shirts and the cardi with the beaded flower embellishment.

    2. Thank you for posting the pics! That's disappointing to hear about the silk; hopefully, that won't be true for all silk pieces. Looking forward to tomorrow's rollout, not sure if there are many must haves for me but it's always fun to look. My closest is already bursting so I need to force myself to be choosy. :)

  8. I used the promo tonight to grab a few items for my little. She wanted the stripped flippy skirt and striped ruffle sleeve top - and she wants to wear them together. That's my girl! These will be great mix and match pieces all winter long. I also got her the heart multi striped tee too.

    I'll be heading to the store tomorrow to return some shoes that my girl loves but they hurt her feet (we found a similar pair at the gap that will hopefully not hurt). I hope to see the drake gemmas, the Harlow cardi and the embellished cardi to try on.

    1. How cute! Those look like great, fun pieces. She sounds like a budding JCA.

    2. @liztriden, that sounds adorable! I hope the new shoes work out for her, disappointing when that happens.

  9. It may be that the silk tops weren't fully steamed but perhaps they will be different trying them on and feeling the texture! My pleasure for the catalog posts-- sorry about some of the dark photos though!
