Hi Everyone!
I was super excited to find out that J. Crew was offering 25% off everything earlier this week! So, dear readers, I had to grab a few things. Here’s what I ordered:
The Eden Cardigan in Heather Viridian Green
I also grabbed the Blythe Blouse in Neon Azalea
And, finally, I grabbed the Pencil Skirt in Wool Crepe in Decadent Red
That’s my sale haul! Did you take advantage of this promo? If so, please tell what you purchased!
Great purchases.I got the royal paisley button up, the black tipped hacking jacket, and a pair of the cafe capris. The cafe trousers in red are tempting me, but I am not sure how much use I will get out of them. I also want to get a cashmere sweater but I don't reach for them much. The cashmere colors are very very tempting though.
A!! You purchased some great things too! I'd love to know what you think about the paisley perfect shirt. Like you, I'm tempted by the cafe trousers; however, I have the hardest time finding pants that fit me properly. And, since the stores rarely carry size 14s, I'd have to purchase them without trying them on. Also, I have a review of the no. 2 pencil skirt in royal paisley set to run tomorrow!
Awesome scores! You and I like similar colors! :)I caved with the mona suede pumps in wild berry.
Thanks, Tammy! I'm really trying to add color to my wardrobe! The Mona pumps in wild berry are super cute!!! I wish that I could wear higher heels!
I got wind of the stores having a better sale than this, so I called a couple of stores and located the Flare Perfect Coat and Lady Lace Popovers, all on incredible sale prices MINUS 30%, so I asked them to do a charge & send. It is unreal what a discrepancy there is between stores and online prices.
Rose! Wow, you're right, the discrepancy between prices is unreal. I really want the Lady Lace Popover, but my store never got it. I refuse to pay more for it. I tried to purchase items I haven't seen in store. I cannot take the crazy pricing games.
rynetta — e-mail me or message me on PV and I will tell you how to get it.
I also mentioned this huge discrepancy between the online and store prices and I got an e-mail from JC giving me the explanation why that is. Thank you for taking the time to offer feedback regarding the differences in online prices and store prices. Your comments are important to us, and I will be sharing them with the appropriate team. Our stores have a much more limited area for storage and display of merchandise. They will always need to have items sold quickly to make room for new merchandise; therefore their sale prices may be lower than online. If there is anything else I can help you with, please feel free to replyto this email or contact me directly. I've provided my contact information below for your convenience.
Great, thanks, Rose!!!
So in love with the neon blouse! Mix and Match Fashion
Tara, me too!! The Neon Azalea color is gorgeous!! And, I'm adding your wonderful blog to my favorites. I am SO glad you stopped by!
Great choices..I love the cardigan, what a color.
Sue!! Thanks!! I am embarrassed to admit that I own the Eden cardigan in 3 other colors! I'm with you, the virdian green is a great color! Thanks for stopping by!
Rose, thanks SO much for sharing the response about discrepancies between online/store pricing!!
Is there anyway that you could share with me how to get a lady lace popover? I have wanted one in the worst way for what seems like forever! I heard that they were less expensive in the stores and began randomly calling about 20 stores with no luck and then somehow got connected with CS at JCrew who told me that there weren't any available in any of their stores. I was so bummed! I just can't spend $100+ on an item that is final sale. Thanks so much! I love your blog and am so glad that you started it. I am so grateful for the JCA community!
