Thanks to Jordan, a reader who sent me the following links on Friday afternoon!

ABC News interviewed both Jenna Lyons, Creative Director at J.Crew and Tracy Gardner, President of J.Crew. I could not embed the interviews here so I have included links below.

Great info and links, thank you Leigh! Did you see the NBC story with Ms., Lyons on Thursday? (The “Can Michelle Obama Save the Fashion Industry?” story done for TV.)

Hope the rest of your weekend is splendid!

i remember reading that you can get free shipping always via the code “JUSTASK”… haven’t tried it though so i can’t guarantee it’ll work.

another way to save is to stack coupon codes with purchasing through a cashback site like
ebates. ebates gives the highest cash back rebate for J Crew shopping: 2%! click through via that link and get $5 just for signing up!!

Jenna, if you ever read this, I hope (pray) that you’re considering publishing a book full of your fabulous fashion sense, style tips, etc. So many stylists have books out that are not a 1/4 as practical + lovely as your stance on style (J. Crew catalogs, videos, etc.). I’d love to get a book by you!!
