J. Crew finds

While this has not been the best season for sales, I did find a few things. The cheapest of all were my J. Crew pajama bottoms--one in cotton, two in flannel. The cotton ones are the softest thing in the world and I'm wearing them now (I don't want to take them off). These were $29.99 with another 30% discount. I got two pairs last week and another pair on Thursday after they were marked down further to $19.99 with 30% off. While I was in J. Crew I also got the chevalier cardigan (the Mayle knock off--it steals a lot of details from Nadege, which I still hope to own one day). I passed on a Medium a week or so earllier hoping to find it in grey but then realized it was impossible to find in stores. When I saw a Large (really too big), I realized it was now or never and bought it. At $62, it's not a bad wardrobe adddition. I also found a gray and white fine striped long cashmere mix cardi in J. Crew for just $24 and the statement necklace I wanted for $70. Again, it's all accessories and sleepwear but I think I did OK.

Today I'm sewing. I'd love to shop to but that can wait until Monday when I'll hit a couple of sample sales. Tuesday, it's back to teaching--althoug I think this week has been a full work week as I've prepared classes and, yet again, not got back to my writing. Hopefully I can finish things next week and get on with my conference paper and book proposal, while cutting a few book chapters down to article length to submit to journals.
