My JCrew haul

[melaniesc]

Just got back from my local JCrew. This is what I picked up:

a pair of hot pink Darby shorts
a pair of deep blue bermuda shorts
a short sleeve open weave blue and green striped sweater (matches the shorts perfectly)
a peach pencil skirt
a cream chunky necklace

I'm happy with my purchases but a bit bummed about the pencil skirts. They actually didn't have my size, so I got the peach the next size up. It definitely fits, just a little looser than what I'd normally wear. I really wanted the hot pink one too, but they didn't have any in my size or the next size up. I was also a bit miffed that not all the pencil skirts were marked down to $34. The green and purple were at $60. Not surprisingly they had a lot of those left.

Hmmmm. They had a ton of the purple at my store. They were a tad bit more than the other colors but not much. My purple one was $39.99 vs. $34.99. I was tempted to buy the pink one too but I already have the wool skirt in pink azalea. I still manage to wear it because I'm always cold anyway.

JUST BE GLAD YOU HAVE A J CREW THEY ARE ALL STILL 70+ ONLINE!

lol

They took them offline today! At least the link I had put in my blog over the weekend if the deal now takes you to $110 maroon pencil and that's it.

yeah i actually prefer shopping online and esp. with JCrew because the closest one is still about 20 min away. but i noticed they weren't marking down online like they were in the stores so figured I'd give it a shot. glad it was worth me using the gas and heading out there. it was actually pretty hectic when i got to the store. lots of women in the sale section pulling everything apart. luckily i got in and out pretty fast cause i still had to go get my kids from daycare.
