J. Crew is now offering 40% off their sale! Yippee!

I just but a "few" things I have been waiting for. I don't remember the last time J. Crew offered 40% off. I guess they are really desperate to make room for Fall/Winter. Enjoy!

Just bought the Edie purse in Hyacinth. I have been eyeing this for months and so love the color!

I have the Martina wedges in black, now that the grey ones will be less than $100 on sale, would like to get those. In your opinion, would they be versatile shoes for everyday for work.

TIA

i have the biennial satchel. the leather on it is amazing. it's a gorgeous bag.

my only complaint is i wish it had a long strap to go crossbody - but i'm sure you can prolly get one from one of the other satchels in the same red/leather and use it.

I was wondering since they have additional 40% off can you get a price adjustment on final sale when it was 30% off?

Is JCrew suiting high quality? Is it worth the cost of alterations? The smallest tall size is a 2 and I would probably need a 0 or 00 (based on other JCrew clothing I've tried on). The cost of alterations would be pretty pricey, so I'd want to make sure that the garments themselves were worth it.

I would say 'yes', especially the super 120s. It's a year round fabric, that holds up very well, prone to minimal wrinkles. I have a suit from 2007, that looks brand new and I wear it often enough. Sometimes the alterations at J. Crew can be cheaper than going to your own alterations. But the downside is that if you have someone that does your alterations often, they know how to properly fit you. I've never had a problem with J. Crew alterations, because the most I get done is the waist taken in.

Just bought the 3/4 length polo and another striped shirt. J.crew you slay me with your glorious wares! I miss living in New Jersey and being able to go to a brick and mortar store once a week during the summer sale.

Are you sure you need a tall? I am a 00 or 0 there and at 5'9" I have no problem buying size 0 120s pants and even wearing them with 2.5" heels. They have a long inseam and fit very long. I find the suiting pants run about a size smaller than the skirts. I you are between sizes at JCrew and go back and forth between 0 and 00, I'd go with the 0. I have quite a few of these pants and really like them. They are much nicer than the superfine cotton , but I like those too. The superfine cotton runs bigger in my experience.
