Well it's stuff I bought at full price but used my student discount. The policy is that they won't adjust it if you use student/teacher discount, which is ABSURD, but most stores will do it. What is the point of having a student discount if it only works on full price and it penalizes you if stuff goes on sale.

I have decided from today on I will not buy anything full price at all. If I miss out too bad, but I'm tired of doing all of these price adjustments and more tired of stuff going on sale a week after it comes in my store. Obviously it is all priced too high to begin with or they wouldn't have to be doing this.

I also think their policy is horrible! I just can't believe how they keep doing this! And we keep buying:shame:

Hey everyone! I'm hardly ever in the wardorbe sub forum but this thread caught my eye! :tup:

J. Crew has been a godsend to me for a few reasons: 1) I've been out of work for many months up until this past May (yay!) and have been on a very tight budget. So the sales have been awesome. 2) I've gained weight in the past year and have been reluctant to invest a lot of $$ in new clothes until I can get to a size I'm happier with and 3) my new workplace is SUPER casual...jeans, flipflops and t-shirts are just fine which is not what I'm used to!

So thanks to J. Crew for incredible sales and the casual stuff I need to get cheaply to fit in at work and not look so corporate-y. Cargo khakis, chambray shirts, $5 ribbed tank tops from the outlets for layering (score!) and even the jewelry (the mixed pearl/chains pastiche - sp? - bracelet is super amazing) and has been a really fun and relatively inexpensive way to give my wardrobe a lift and adapt to my work's casual dress code!

I just got a denim vest, jacket and jeans to get ready for fall/winter...all in the Destroyed or Tinted Out washes.

The truely impossible happened today. I walked into j crew picked up one pair of the new denim legging jeans tryed them on and, gasp, bought them. Love them, didn't have to try on 200 pair, they were just perfect. Never in my life has this happened. I'm a little older and I didn't want ones I couldn't breath in, plus I have a broken leg so the ankle opening couldn't be too tight and my brace had to fit over them. All this in one shot! Love j crew!

Please advise me!!


Does any know how this neon linen sweater runs??: http://www.jcrew.com/browse/single_...2039281&nav_type=SALESITE&bmUID=1281864569791

Or if you don't know about that one, perhaps any of their linen tops in general?? In my experience things run slightly big at JC, and by reading the description it seems like its cut bigger too.... I want the kind of fit the model has. Then again, they have been known to be inconsistent..

TIA:D

Well...;)
I picked up:
-Super 120 Elan trousers in Heather Flannel (I have a black pair and :love: them)
- Ombré paillette cardigan ( I hope I like it IRL)
-Featherweight cashmere short-sleeve cardigan in Navy
-Leather and Chain belt

I was going to get another short-sleeve cardi but I was worried about the cashmere pilling.

I need to stop shopping :noggin: I'm running out of room in my closet/drawers:push:.

my store has a somewhat small sale section. most of the store is filled with new goodies! New collection came out today (I helped put it out last night). I'm pretty obsessed. I tried on pretty much every shoe we got in. I think at one point (around midnight?) I put on a puffer vest, sequin bubble shorts, and 6 necklaces.....
