If only I spent as much time in France as I do thinking about how to create the perfect Parisenne wardrobe. My closet would be full of ballet flats and stripes, and every day I’d walk to the market to fill up my chic straw bag with pretty produce and the most beautiful baguettes. Alas, a little bakery in Brooklyn Heights—and all-American retailer J.Crew—must sustain me for now.
Today, after grabbing the requisite croissant and coffee, I began to browse through J.Crew’s latest spring offerings and was pleasantly surprised to discover that a sale commenced this morning. As with most major markdown events, the best merchandise tends to go quickly. So, I got to work scrolling through dozens of pages (and thousands of products) with the singular goal of achieving the French girl spring wardrobe of my dreams.
From now until April 15, use code SHOP30 for 30% off of your purchase on select full-price items and an additional 30% off sale styles. In fashion math, that basically equates to saving enough to buy a ticket to Paris, tout de suite!
Keep scrolling to shop the 31 most French-feeling pieces on sale right now at J.Crew, and get excited for warmer temps headed your way this spring.
