J Crew - final sale (end of Feb 2011)

Updated 3/1
Updated 3/6

Here's a revised list of links to irl pics of J Crew final sale items. If I don't have irl pics, I have links to other bloggers' irl pics and/or comments made about the items.

If you have a question, I will try to answer it or someone here will. Sometimes a full range of sizes will pop back in an item, but I won't see and add it to this list. If you don't see the item you're interested in here, try entering the product name or style number in the Search This Blog box on the right-hand side of the main page.

If I've reviewed the item, it should up in the search. You can also search on The Mothership to see if there is discussion about an item you're interested in.

I usually don't note prices because J Crew adjusts them, as pointed out in this discussion. However, for some items I'll note prices if I see a 2nd cut or if the price is a great deal.

This year's version is the same silhouette, but has a seam at the waist and the ruffle stops at the waist.

Size 2 – Chest = 35.75", Waist relaxed= 29”, Waist extended = 33”, Hips = 40.25"

Size 4 - Chest = 36.25", Waist = 30.25", Hip = 40.25", Waistband to hem = 20"

Jackets/Outerwear

* Boutonniere blazer - on Ema and on Audreybella
* Brigadier utility jacket - Irl pics - Also see Old Navy's surplus jacket. The spicy oak is similar to JC's burnished moss.
* Cocoon concerto coat - on Dina G
* Double-cloth Colletta coat - on Dina G and on Extra Petite
* Double-cloth dollop coat - on Ema
* Double-cloth ingenue coat - on Dina G and on No J Crew In Japan
* Double-cloth lady day coat - on Extra Petite
* Flight jacket - On promo for $138
* Gilded tweed jacket - on Audreybella
* Icon trench - on Dina
* Italian wool blazecoat - Irl pics

* Lodge puffer vest - Irl pics

Size 4 – Chest = 34", Waist = 34.5”, Sweep = 39.5"
Size 6 – Chest = 37", Waist = 35.5”, Sweep = 30.5"

The chest size looks like a big jump between 4 and 6. I'd double check that measurement.

* Moonbeam sequined blazer - on Ema - I got this (4) in the same color as Ema. The cobblestone didn't do anything for my skin color. If you want a sequined jacked, this is the way to do it. Well constructed.
* Rideau cashmere - on The Outfit of the Day

* Softwashed wool blazer - I received this in camel. I didn't like it. The texture looked nubby, like it had pilled. Evenly nubbed, but pilled looking. The camel color is really nice and exactly as I had hoped, but the texture was an eyesore for me.

Size 2 – Chest = 36.5", Waist = 33.75”, Length = 25", Sweep 37.5",
Size 4 – Chest = 37.5", Waist = 34.75”, Length = 25.5", Sweep 38.5"

* Stadium-cloth cinema coat - Irl pic
* Stadium-cloth Sasha peacoat - Irl pic
* Tuxedo jacket - The body is felted wool jersey. mommydearest said, 'I reviewed this a couple weeks ago. I think it runs large - I ordered a size down. Well, when it went on sale I reordered and that (same marked size) was even bigger. It fit like a whole size larger. When I returned it, the SA said there seemed to be a lot of variation in that particular jacket. So beware of this one on final sale!'

Size 2 - Chest = 33.5", Waist = 31", Length = 23.25"
Size 4 - Chest = 34.5", Waist = 32", Length = 23.5"

* Velvet schoolboy - on Apples & Pencil Skirts
* Wool-cashmere icon trench - on Cleo

Petite 4 - Waist = 31.25", Hips = 35.5"

Lizzy said, 'These have been discussed a bunch... but I just wanted to add my voice to the chorus b/c I love, love LOVE them- like, bought them in both colors love them. I have a classic hourglass and usually can't do the skinny look, but these pants are like magic-- hugging in all the right places, sleek with heels and cute with flats/sneakers. Plus, b/c of the stretch they are *comfy*! As other JCA's have noted they do run a bit large in the waist, but IMO can be easily cinched with a belt. I have them in my "non-vanity size" and they fit perfectly; can make them either slouchy or sleek, depending on how I belt them.'

Size 4 - Waist = 32.5", Hip = 37"
Size 6 - Waist = 33.5", Hip = 38"

Tops

* Calista cami - Irl pics

* Cascading flutter shell - Irl pics
* Chambray tuxedo-pleat shirt - Irl pics (pics 3-5)
* Chevron cami - I love mine in windsor grey for the low price it is now. It looks good under the Cambridge cable cardi.

2 - Chest = 37"
4 - Chest = 38"

* Chiffon Cecelia cami - on AppGal
* Coralie cami - Irl pics
* Darla ruffle cami - Irl pics
* Drapey sequin tank - Irl pics
* Drapey sequin tee - on Debye
* Drapey stripe baseball tee - on AppGal (scroll down)

S - chest = 35", waist = 34.5", length = 25.5"
M - chest = 37", waist = 36.5", length = 26"

* Drapey stripe tank - on Shopping on the Fly

S - Chest = 32"
M - Chest = 34", Sweep - 37" (?)

* Embellished boy shirt - Irl pics

* Flowered mosaic embroidered tunic - Irl pics
* Glacé tunic - I liked this in both colors. S fit a bit big, so I would get XS, personally. It has a loose fit, but you can cinch the waist to your liking. I didn't think it looked too maternity, but could possibly used in the first two trimesters. If you do that, stick w/your regular size and don't go down one.
* Lace panel cami - on Shopping on the Fly
* Lace rows tank - on Debye (under starry night cardi)
* Lisette lace shell (now $29.99) - Irl pics
* Microspun cowlneck tee - on AppGal
* Plaid Eliza tee - Irl pics

* Perfect-fit folded flower tank - on Cleo
* Perfect-fit ruffle henley - Irl pics

* Perfect-fit scoopneck tee - Good bargain.

* Perfect-fit stripe ruffle henley - on AppGal
* Plaid Eliza tee - Irl pics - I removed the black necklace beading as follows:

* Sequin sweatshirt - Irl pics
* Silk and sequin scoopneck tee - Irl pics
* Sosie sequin tank - on Dina G
* Spotted silk Vivie top - Irl pics
* Stripe painter tee - on Shop With M (3rd pic)
* Stripe tux tunic - on Heidi (2nd pic)
* Tuxedo henley (37717)

XXS - chest = 30.5", waist = 29.5"
XS - chest = 32", waist = 31"

The measurements seem odd to me because usually the measurements vary by 1". So if the XXS chest is 30.5, an XS chest would be 31.5 or 32.5, not 32. But that's what they gave me.

* Vintage cotton mixed lawn shirt - Irl pics

I encourage you to try to find reviews, pics or comments about items before committing to final sale. I know it's easy to get caught up when shopping in the wee hours as things are popping back. I just hope you utilize this post and the other ways to look for info:

1) Type your search criteria and hit up images from the Google home page.

2) Use the Google search box on The Mothership.

3) Use the Google search box on this blog (upper-right hand side).

4) If you can't locate photos, at the very least call JC customer service for measurements or use the chat feature to ask for measurements if it's available when you're online.

Promo: Use AYC93K for 30% off finale sale + free shipping on $100 or more thru Mon, 2/28.

Still loving the self-imposed budget. I've gone over and will be starting March in the red. And you know what? It doesn't bother me one bit. I know if I hadn't set a budget, I would have bought more things than there are enough days in the season to wear. I'm so over looking at clothes that I am unable to wear for whatever reason.

I haven't shopped this sale and don't think I will. That's the budget keeping me in check. The last thing I purchased was Madewell's striped cadet cardigan (S). It feels and fits like a sweater. It has some structure, but not enough to call it a jacket. I'd say it's good for spring, cool summer nites and early fall. It's possible that it could be layered under a boyfriend blazer. The thought just occurred, but I haven't tried it. Of course I wish I got it for an addtl % off, but I'm worth the price. ;-) Keeping it.

Thanks for stopping by...
