I like the long, big zigzag cardigan I bought. It's heavy and the colors are neutral, so it should pair well with my other staples. The "colore" zigzag dress is pretty nice too, though it's a bit less fitted than in the pictures. I didn't buy anything else because, as you said, some of the other clothing just looked tacky.
The shoes (flats) are pretty cheap though. I read a review online saying that the soles wore down in a day of strenuous walking.

We'll see...I might end up returning them anyway because they wear a little loose (though I do have heel spacers to add friction if I want to keep them).
Beyond that stuff, I'm pleased with what I purchased. Of course, the rest of my stuff was organizing stuff like boxes. Can't go wrong with boxes.
