I'm not a huge J. Crew person, but there are a few things that I think they hit out of the park. My staples are the wool gabardine suiting (the majority of my suits are from J. Crew), cashmere tees (both long-sleeved and short-sleeved -- I probably have fifteen of them between the two styles), and the Jackie cardigan (need to pick up a few more of these this winter).

I've also picked up a couple of fun things this season that I'm very happy with -- the Pixie pant in black and the Minnie pant in coal.
 
ok, so i'm hoping since not THAT much is on sale this weekend that right after christmas, the new things will be marked down and there might be a % off.... i don't know how likely that is though. is it just this year in general? they surely haven't had addtl % off in '09 like they did in '08...i just hope they break out some decent sales before the year is up...
 
Did anyone see Jenna Lyons on Martha Friday? She had on two cute outfits during the segment. I want the sparkly tank she had on. Can't wait for my new catalog this week. I keep them all. Does anyone else do this?

I also do this! Except I gently rip out the outfits that I like and put them in my fashion binder. I have a special J.Crew section that is organized by season. I'm absolutely bonkers for J.Crew... glad I found this thread! :nuts:

I know ... I haven't bought NEARLY as much this year as I did last year
 
Would any of our DC Metro area J. Crew~acholics be interested in a meet-up? I was in J. Crew Pentagon City this morning and one of the sales associates said she would LOVE to have a Shop and Share - we meet, shop and J. Crew 'shares' with us 20% off our purchases that day. We could do it before the store opens, so it's a private affair with refreshments and snacks.

Anyone interested? I sure as heck am :)
 
um- I'm not in DC- but is anyone in philly interested in trying to convince them of doing this at the center city store? I feel like Glen (I'm sure anyone who has been there has dealt with him: super nice, shaved head, glasses, tall, african american man who always brings like eight extra items to you when you go to the fitting room as well as a bottle of water) could make this happen.
 
I went to the outlet today and they had a bunch of deal on cardi's, outerwear, tanks, jewelry, etc but as usual the fit of everything I tried was awful. I rarely ever pick anything up at crewlet.

Ahhh - I like glenn! He is so nice and friendly and so helpful. I usually go to the Cherry Hill store though, because I live so close to the BF Bridge (and I hate taking the stinky el unless I HAVE to) so I don't "know" him as well I "know" the people at the mall.
