The best of the J Crew kids clothes summer sale: 30-50% off!
We love a good sale -- especially at a store with clothing as amazing as J Crew, where I know their kids clothes last me through multiple kids. Shop the non-sale items right now, use code ALLSTAR, and BOOM -- 30% off. But what's best is you can save up to 50% on some of them if you hurry! Here are a few J Crew sales picks I have my eyes on, all at fantastic prices. Oh, and women's clothing and men's clothing are on sale as well. So maybe a little retail therapy for yourself is in order too? CMP is an rstyle affiliate Girls Tank Dress in Rugby Stripes $14.75, or 50% off My daughter lives in these during the summer, and the best part is, as she grows, she turns it into a tunic to wear over long shorts or leggings. Comes in sizes 2-16 and a navy-and-white striped option too, and wow, this price. Win! Girls Scalloped Tankini in 3 colors $23.70, 40% off I featured this awesome tankini in our roundup of cool black swimsuits for girls, so I already loved it -- but I love it even more at 40% off. It also comes in a one-piece swimsuit at the same price. J Crew Boys chambray shirt on sale Kids Short-Sleeve Chambray Shirt $19.50, 40% off Another timeless staple, at this price, I'd even get some in a size or two up so we could wear them next summer. It's still available in sizes 3-14 (sorry, 16 year olds) but hurry! J Crew Girls Tie Front Tee in 6 colors on sale Girls Tie Front Tee in 6 colors $15.90, or 40% off I love how wearable these colors are, and the slouchy, boxier shape keeps these tie-front tees looking appropriately summery, and not...provocative. J Crew Kids Skateboard Emoji Tee on sale Skateboard Emoji Tee $9.75, originally $19.50 It's in the boys section but whatevs. I love this! And hey, 50% off. J Crew Girls Glitter T-Strap Sandals on sale Girls Glitter T-Strap Sandals $23.70, 40% off If your kids are like mine, always outgrowing their summer shoes in early July (sigh), grab these! While there are other colors available, I love these in silver, because they so easily go from the playground to dinner in a dress at a Grandma's. J Crew Boys Stretch Stanton Shorts in 10 colors on sale Boys Stretch Stanton Shorts in 10 colors $18.25-$24.99, originally $36.50 These chino style long shorts are a summer staple for kids 2-16 (yes, my girls like the longer shorts too), and 8 of the colors are 50% off. Grab them!   J Crew Boys Short Sleeve Henley in 4 colors on sale Boys Short Sleeve Henley in 4 colors $12.25 or 50% off Priced like cheaper mall store brand clothes but made to last, I would stock up on this essential go-with-anything basic that will take him right into school, too. Sizes 2-16. J Crew Girls Bow Tank Top in 7 colors on sale Girls Bow Tank Top in 7 colors Select colors $9.25-$9.99, originally$18.50 When you want something a little dressier than a t-shirt on top, but you know, she only wants to wear t-shirts. Comes in 7 cool colors in sizes 2-16 and hello, under $10 each! J Crew future CEO girls tee on sale Future CEO Shirt $11.70, regularly $19.50 Before you send her off to helm her lemonade stand or sell friendship bracelets for charity, pop her in this awesome shirt. It's 40% off -- have her do the math. PS the cool navy striped shorts shown on the model at top are also 40% off. Cute together, right?
