I went to my local J.Crew today and luckily there were still some amazing deals to be had! I was so inspired by all of the talk of the floral pencil skirt that I just had to pick one up along with the fanfare wool cardigan. I think the skirt with the extra 30% and the teacher/student discount was $22 and the sweater was $14.99! I got some other goodies too!

Oh, I also caved and bought the heart me tippi sweater in peacock! My justification was that a.) I got my student/teacher discount so technically it was on sale b.) I saved so much on everything else so it sort of evened out! Anyway, the tipi heart sweater is so cute. It is a great weight to wear during cold summer evenings and mild California winters!

I bought the fanfare cardigan at my local store in Pasadena. I thought they were totally sold out of anything in that print, but they had two sweaters in xxs. I am normally an xs, but it fit and for $14.99 I couldn't pass it up! I also have the fanfare pencil skirt that I bought months ago.

You should get the tippi sweaters! I think at my store they were on sale for $39.99 plus the extra 30% off. I bought a couple during J.Crew's last sale in both cotton and linen. They are great staples for your wardrobe!

If you purchased the pink tippi, be careful. I wore it with white jeans and it bled! 4 washings later the color was still there. Thankfully j crew was understanding. They returned the sweater and let me get a new pair of jeans from madewell.

Thanks for the heads up DC-Cutie. I actually did buy the tippi sweater in pink (the cotton, not linen). I am going to be extra careful with it now that I know this. It is nice that J.CREW was understanding, that's only fair.

....bought a tippi in linen in the Philly store. And no sales tax on clothes - whaaaat?!

I use to live in Pittsburgh, PA and I was so spoiled with the no sales tax. CA sales tax is a killer!
