Oprah J Crew Episode (VIDEO)

Oprah Winfrey teamed up with J Crew this week, as the company's creative director Jenna Lyons gave a look inside her world as the maastermind of J Crew's recent reinvention and resurgence.

Under Jenna Lyons J Crew has made a big comeback, helped in large part by First Lady Michelle Obama's adoption of the clothing line as one of her own favorites. Oprah also told of how she became a fan of the company and invested in it early on during Jenna Lyons' tenure at J Crew.

Said Oprah about her investment in J Crew: "When I saw the first lady, even before she became the first lady, wearing J. Crew--full disclosure here--I went and bought some J. Crew stock. And that was a very good decision."
