I had to bite on the J. Crew sale -- 40 off plus free shipping. But before I did, I checked to see if I could get the same deal -- or better -- in store. Although store merchandise was only 30 percent off, they were willing to match the online deal and honor my educator discount. So I was able to grab the much-blogged about "wild side skinny bangle" which is just stunning in person. With discounts, the total with tax was $27.
I was more interested in the Factory sales. As I mentioned in a previous post -- there were other items I wanted but was waiting/hoping for a good sale. Well, I picked a good day -- the Factory was handing out 20-percent off coupons which were good on top of all in-store promotions. I decided I needed the "Heartthrob" iPhone case. It was a tough choice, there were so many other great items with the Heartthrob print, including a scarf, an umbrella, and a cardigan. I didn't need a fourth iPhone case but I really liked it and it only cost $11.
I also was thrilled to see the Factory offer a version of the "Spindrift" sweatshirt from a while back. I grabbed the emerald (St. Patty's Day!) and the neon azalea (much brighter pink IRL) because a girl can never have too much neon azalea in her life! I am envisioning a breezy spring day when I can wear it with shorts and my matching neon azalea Sperry Topsiders!
Did any of you shop this past weekend? Are you eyeing (or do you own) any of these items? Thoughts?
Yay! So glad you were able to snag the bangle. And that's awesome they honored the online promo as well as your educators discount. My purchase just got shipped, can't wait to get it. I totally considered the umbrella too.

Thanks for the encouragement! I've been on the fence lately about whether I should keep posting...with my hectic work schedule, a weekly post seems to be the best that I can do. and you always wonder, is anybody actually reading? So your words of affirmation come at a great time! Thanks!!
DeleteBTW, I got my Forever 21 heart sweater and its really cute. and for $17.80 So if you're still in the market for a heart sweater, you might want to check it out.
