Quick Note From A J.Crew Personal Shopper

A personal shopper at J.Crew (also known as Anonymous at 5:10 PM in the "New Arrivals Online & New Sale Items" post) shared with us the following:

As a PS, I can tell you that our September goods arrived this morning and will hit the floor Thursday and Friday. They will be released via the catalogue and website next week, which is what they usually do. In the stores, markdowns are done either Tuesday night or Wednesday night. I don't know how it is done for direct. And yes, the habit JCrew has of having different promotional prices at stores and direct drives us nuts too.

First, I am always thrilled to hear from a J.Crew employee (so "thank you!" Anon at 5:10PM!) :) Second, I am delighted that the new merchandise will hit stores soon. Third, about the markdowns happening on Tuesday or Wednesday night- very cool to know! :)

What do you think about the latest Fall arrivals? Planning to stop by a store next week to see the new clothes? Have you already been eying some pieces (for those lucky few of you who have received the new catalog already)?
