AT Loft F&F Store Report


Thank you to mrs.anketell who left a comment on my post today, letting me know that the AT Loft cardis are indeed still promo-d at $24.50! (Love having my emails come through to my Blackberry - I was at the office for a couple hours this morning and was planning on staying till I picked up my son from preschool - and as all Mommies know, it is quite a bit easier to shop alone!) Anyway, that makes these great little cardigans only $17.15!

So I ran down to ATL and I'm glad I went early. They had tucked the cardigans away to some low shelving on a side wall (took me two walks around the store to find them) and they appear to be selling pretty well, especially the Smalls and the hot pink color. They had the ivory that I wanted and I picked up one other color - a pretty turquoise.

The 3/4 sleeve ruffle cardigans were also on promo - regularly $44.50 (and still this price online), currently $29.50 in-store - so with F&F that makes them $20.65. So I also purchased one of those in a great neutral a little darker than the ivory... I would call it "latte"; since ATL doesn't have it online I don't know what they call it. I bought this in a Medium when I normally buy Smalls - it is much more sheer than the other cardis and I picture it looking good a little looser and more relaxed. I think it will be great with my ON linen drawstrings!

There was a lot of pretty new merchandise too. I was in a hurry so didn't try anything else on but I noticed lots of ruffles, turquoise and yellow.

By the way, they did not say anything to me about F&F when I walked around the store so I think you do need to bring your email!

the cardis appear a little lighter here than IRL - the colors are ivory, a rich turquoise and a tan/sandy/latte color

  1. Thanks for reminding me that those are still on promo and about the discount that can be applied to them. I am running to get a few after work today b/c 17.15 is just too good to pass up! I love the ones that you picked out.

  2. Yay!! I am so glad you got there, to snag two more of these cuties!! At such a great deal!! I liked the turquoise color, too!! I am debating on going back and getting either the turquoise or the the off white....i didin't see my size in the off white, so maybe it's turquoise.....maybe if i saw a polyvore put together with this color, it would solidify the decision..hehe:)

  3. Love the cardis! Score!

    I went to Nordstrom today to get a baby shower gift and picked up a "free" watch! I love it! Fits perfectly.

    Also, I wanted to try on the Jack Rogers sandals you mentioned, but was told they don't carry them in the store. I did see them on the Nordy website. Have you found them in-store?

  4. Emily - I hope you find some good colors!
    mrs.a - too funny... I JUST made a PV with the turquoise sweater (I used a J Crew Jackie though b/c it is a better pic. For some reason the set is invisible right now though :\ It isn't super creative but I think it will be great with just white & jeans!

  5. Jillle - I haven't seen them in-store, just online. It seemed like they really promoted them so I'm surprised! Maybe only the really big stores? I will have to check on that because I really wanted to see how comfortable they are. I wonder if zappos or endless carries... will have to check now. Thanks for the info! :) And congrats on your free watch! What color? :)

  6. Love the cardis - and I have a lunch on Thurs right next to a Loft. Will have to check them out! Can't wait to see the PVs - I bet the turquoise is gorgeous with white jeans!!

    also - got my "claire" dress today - in navy and dark charcoal - but under $60, you know. Thanks for the clue in - I am loving them - the fit is fantastic!! Also got rattan clutch.

  7. Yay Heidi! You know I love that dress & also the clutch - I'm glad you do too.
    mrs.a - now that I look at my sweater it is more green - I did a 2nd PV with options that will be better with it... I need to go check my cricket TB flats against it... may need to re-think... :)

  10. Love the news finds! I'm on a shopping break-- otherwise I would be beelining for those! I'm looking forward to your sets!

  11. Jillle - oh good... I will try them on pretty soon then.
    FFM - thanks! I will be sure to review if I get them!
    SGM - shopping break... sounds like something I should be doing! I was considering joining Patina but May is my b'day month and I have a 15% discount card from Anthropologie. I will definitely be putting some restrictions on myself though and plan to stay out of J Crew for awhile.

  12. Dangerously cute cardis. If I had any more budget to spend I'd wipe it out on these in a second!
