So I'm out on Saturday walking around downtown Portland in the lovely crisp fall afternoon when I strolled past the JCrew window display. It was a terrible mistake.
It is well known that if I had to subsist with only 3 brands ever again it would be Banana Republic, Ann Taylor, and JCrew. I love their cheeky preppyness. I love their devotion to the tall collared rugby. And I love their hats. I think I have like 23 JCrew hats. And now, I want one more.
Thing is, this hat is currently $50, give or take. But if I wait 3 weeks or so, this hat will be $25. If it can still be found. And this is my main problem with JCrew. When they do discount something it offends me to have paid full price so recently. On the other hand, if I wait in hopes of said discount, it may well sell out before I get to it. It is a bitter dilemma and I am not happy to be having it. I've had a fair amount of success waiting and trying again. I have a skirt that started out $60 that I only paid $20 for. I suppose I ought to wait and see. After all, if we are destined to be together, I suppose we'll find a way somehow...
