Worth The Wait?

by Heidi on October 9, 2008

I have a love hate relationship with JCrew. You see, I love no, I LURRRRVE their clothing. The ruffles, the bows, the bright colors, headbands, cute shoes, and adorable pencil skirts alike.

Unfortunately, my budget does not love JCrew. Thus, a lot of the things I have loved this fall, I’ve forced myself to wait on. At the very least, they have to go on sale sometime right?

Well wait no longer my friend, is what the J Crew website said to me yesterday. I religiously read J Crew Aficionada where I find out about J Crew sales and the like. “A bunch of the fall styles have gone on sale,” the blog said yesterday. My heart thumped and I became hopeful…oh my could it be, could my lovely, lustful dress that I have been swooning over since August finally be on sale?

Oh it was. $49.99 minus a $10 gift card that I got from Shop it to Me (if you don’t get their emails, you should. Let me know! I’ll send you an invite!!) I will be ordering it tomorrow, as there is a possibility that there might be an additional 20% sale items…and while that might be only if you spend $100 or more, I’m hopeful that it will be in general :) Rumors are that J Crew’s stock (like everyone else’s has been hurting because of the wretched economy, maybe they’ll bulk up the sales in hopes of making it better. Though I wouldn’t just blame the economy, their website and online ordering has been shotty so I’ve heard. I think it’s gotten better though.)

Say hello to my new lovely autumny dress :)

J Crew Adelaide Dress $80 – $49.99

YES PLEASE!!! :) Perhaps my legs will even look like hers.

    i always find great sales in the JCrew store. my local store never has much on the sale racks but it’s usually on sale price plus an extra _% off

    Heidi, that dress is super cute. I’ve never been much of a fan of J.Crew, as I tend to be more of a BR kinda girl. However, I think that you would look super in that dress…and your legs, with all the running you’ve been doing I’m sure would look WAY better than the model’s skinny sticks.
    PS: I love shopping, please send me the invite for shop it to me :)

    J.Crew will be the end of me. I just ordered a top and a necklace off the final sale page which totaled $99.98 and I needed an extra two cents to get the free shipping. So I bought socks.

    Blast you J. Crew for making me love you so much!

    God that dress is cute and for a cute price. I am madly in love with JCrew too but I hate the prices. I just cannot afford it. Damn you JCrew and your wonderful preppiness!
