here are some more pics of other 'rare' items from ebay.com

what does everyone think of the schoolgirl blouse? i think its silly.

 

[iJustWalk.]

i have one that people i know signed at the end of school unifrom

i wouldn't want a random one, and i certainly don't wear mine

that leather jacket is cool. the schoolgirl shirt is a bit silly, although it could be charming on the right person. for some reason it reminds me of the luella for target print with the hand-lettering, minus the crazy colors.

i finally got the cowl neck studded jersey dress today. well, not really a dress -- i'm probably going to wear it as a tunic over leggings or jeans, 'cause it's reaaaaalllllly short. (and i wear short-shorts and minis a lot!) i like it...it's heavier than i thought, because the front is "doubled" in fabric. the studs and embroidery details are great. it's the detail that makes it worth all the fuss.

i also got the bondage dress (threw it into my cart, thought 'why not? i could always sell it...') surprisingly, i like it a lot, although i feel like i have to wait a season so it doesn't look so i don't feel like a victim. the fabric is stiff and sheen-y, so it holds its shape well. i'm not sure if it's worth the price, though...

The schoolgirl blouse def looks silly. The only signed blouse that isn't silly is one that you got yourself from your last day of school! Afterall, isn't that the point of signed schoolshirts?

silk poppy dress and schoolgirl blouse up on topshop.com! pics from topshop.com


... so i finally got my topshop package from the UK. took them long enough! i ordered the corset jersey top (LOVE IT), the coin waistcoat (LOVE IT), the khaki waistcoat (a wee bit too small) and the matching khaki hotpants (wee bit too big). i think i am going to return the khaki waistcoat and hotpants. i would keep them if they were my size as they are very easy pieces to wear. i really like the hotpants a lot! but you know what's lame? topshop.com actually keeps track of what i ordered so i can't order the proper sizes in those items! i would have to order the black versions if i wanted them, for example. lame!

i also got the blue pleated chiffon dress from barney's new york. very cute dress but i think it's a size too large for me. shame!

lucy - the leather jacket is really cool. i hope you can locate one for yourself without having to go through ebay! i can do without the schoolgirl shirt.

btw, did anyone order the striped blazer? how is the sizing running on that one? should i base my sizing off what i would fit for the waistcoat?

i am so tempted to order the silk poppy dress!

That leather jacket.. is good.

lucy, the leather jacket was originally going to be £150....but the poppy dress and white dress were originally going to be £45 until someone (PHILIP GREEN!!!!!) got greedy and put them up to £60...fingers cross they will stay at £150 because I really want that one, or the cream one and can't afford much more than that.

I was at oxford circus at the launch and was told by the SA's that the poppy dress, the white dress and the leather jacket (the only pieces i wanted from the collection) would be out in 2 weeks. that was 2 weeks yesterday, so i would keep checking online if i was you, they're updating all the time. i just ordered the poppy dress! excited!!!

I happened to be in Chelmsford (Essex, UK) yesterday where they have some of the range. I was surprised at the quality of the dresses. The black dress with the cut-out detail, wasn’t nice at all…kinda plastic, and the jacket are very thin. The denim jeans are nice though, very soft.

I had the same experience with the black hotpants. They were def sized larger. So annoying!

the dailymail.co.uk did a survey of what items were sold for a profit on ebay and how big the profits were. interesting.

^ thanks for posting! It is interesting... although, more so that the DM seems to have it in for Kate rather than actually as an example of ebay selling prices. I automatically assume everything in the Daily Mail is misleading/ prejudiced in some way, and those prices are nonsense... yes, a lot of items are selling for nearish cost price now but most of the decent pieces are still over in small sizes (would be surprised if the price quoted for the hotpants was a pair of size 16s, etc). They haven't taken averages, they've just picked out random examples. Plus, tellingly, they've left off the pansy dress and the bondage dress which were selling for a lot last time I looked.

Still for those in the US, I think british ebay is now probably a cheaper place to go for a lot of the items than US stores with their inflated prices.
