In 2011, I fell in love with J. Crew. I love going to their store and touching everything—the sequins, the cashmere, the corduroy. I love their jewelry. I love their flats and scarves. I love their colors. I love the timeless style of J. Crew. I do not, however, like their crazy ridiculous prices.
Unless they’re on sale. Or better yet, clearance sale.
I bought this chambray shirt last June on sale. I don’t remember how much it was, but it was cheap. This skirt is brand-new and this is my first time wearing it. It was originally $98, but I got it on clearance for $23. Bam. Definitely worth being elbowed and pushed around by the post-Christmas shoppers on December 26th.
In fact, everything I’m wearing today I got on sale. The bag was bought on sale at an outlet on a Black Friday a couple of years ago. The belt was in a random clearance pile at Target. The shoes were bought on Black Friday last year at an outlet for 30% off.
What can I say? I love a bargain. And loving bargains...and fashion...and J. Crew...do not have to be mutually exclusive.
