I can't visit Woodbury Commons without stopping at the J.Crew Factory Store. It's huge! It also gets pretty messy (especially during the holidays), so put your gameface on & be prepared to sift through piles for the size you want. But let me tell you: it's worth the work!
Because it's a Factory Store, a lot of the clothes are different than the merchandise you would find in a normal store. On certain items (dresses, tops, skirts), the quality of the material is a little different. Not bad, just ... different. Keep that in mind if you were looking for something specific you saw in-store.
Now, as for the denim, long-sleeved & short-sleeved classic tees, tank tops, and graphic tees -- STOCK UP! Come on, you know it's hard to find a pair of J.Crew jeans for under $60. This is where that happens. And I am a huge fan of their long-sleeved classic tees, which are pretty much the same ones you can find in normal stores, minus $5-10. They never go out of style, and are perfect for layering.
They usually have a nice selection of winter coats, accessories, bags, and shoes available as well. There is, of course, a men's section, and even a crewcuts section, so check those out if you're so inclined.
PS: Don't forget about the coupon book! And I think the student/teacher discount also applies here. read more
