BLING IT ON: J.Crew Jewelry Event and Other Insider Tips

As a simple, Midwestern girl I would have never thought twice about seeking the assistance of a Very Personal Stylist (VPS) at J.Crew -- or any other luxury service for that matter.  But being on "the inside" of retail (i.e., Corporate America), I understand how desperate companies are to offer promotions, discounts, points, free miles, etc. in exchange for your loyalty.

An appointment with a VPS at J.Crew is absolutely free with no commitment from the shopper... no minimums, fees, etc.  In fact, you could have spent nothing at J.Crew in the past, but by simply expressing interest in meeting a VPS, you will be invited to shop exclusive sales, promotions, etc.
