^Weird that you say that because they just started following me on twitter. Are you one of their people because that would not be cool...

 

[Teja]

^Haha, same!

Bought three equipment silk blouses the other day.

Undecided on whether I'm keeping the black one with the leis. It looks better in person than in the pic but the store only had that one in an xs and though the fit is fine for the most part i'm concerned it might dig into my armpits a bit.

I got a Wunderkind dress,a Thakoon dress,Antonio Marras skirt,and a delicious Marni blue skirt with little white flowers.

I've bought THREE vintage dresses this month.

(1) A midi length red polka dot dress for $5
(2) A black floral one that hits above the knee and is so lightweight and has lovely volume when I spin it all around for $19
(3) A two-piece turquoise velvet dress with a pencil skirt and a cropped peter pan collar top for $60.

All of them were on sale. The last one being 30% off—I've actually been having MAJOR buyer's remorse about it even though it was such a good deal and in such great condition b/c I have some upcoming travel plans that's gonna mess with my budget. UGH.

See if you can go to a nearby J. Crew store and return it there and then literally buy it right then and there at the new price. That' what I would do

Have you done that before? I've always been VERY curious about that

^In my country, if you can't ask for adjustments, they will only refund you the price the jacket is currently selling for. So if it is on 30% off, you only get 70% back, even if you are within the return-period.

i bought a used Bibhu Mohapatra gown (style) it's from a few seasons ago and might need tailoring and repairs. the price was a steal. i'm hoping all the pleats can hide the potential snags.

can't wait till i get it.

i think he's a very underrated designer.

 

[softgrey]

^^woah---where are you going to wear it lucy?...


i got some things at daiso...
including chopstick rests shaped like a crab and shaped like a fish...
3 of each...

Lucy that sort of gradient/ombré is really beautiful! Echoing softie's question – do you have somewhere in mind to wear it?

Found these Balenciaga flats for under $300 and bought them on a whim... have been debating whether I should keep them or not ever since. The leather is really nice and soft.

i am not sure yet where i'll wear it. the cost was less than 100$. so i have no reason to not wear it. i examined it closely. no stains and it fit perfectly. i also think it will not wrinkle easily, so i can hang it in my closet without worry.

maybe i'll get couples photos done while wearing it.

i bought bobbi brown "kennedy" sunglasses today. (bloomingdales)
this is bobbi's new eye wear line. they retailed for $150 and i got them for $130. unfortunately it will cost me over 300$ to fulfill the prescription.
ah well, guess i should be appreciative that the frame cost was so inexpensive. usually the frames i need are pricey.

Less than $100!! That is an amazing find

i wish i could see that jacket better CP...
...

i love jil sander though, so i am sure it's great...!

*off topic...
it drives me slightly crazy that the lines are all crooked in those two images...
feels like the pictures are sliding off to the right...
...

lucy- i'm sure you will have fun wearing it...

 

[ChrissyM]

i think i may officially be addicted to equipment blouses... i bought yet ANOTHER one. In my defense, it's solid red and collarless, so it's different from all the others I have

Also bought this DVF Tahlia one-shoulder dress (got it at TJMAXX for $59 so I couldn't pass it up) – just found the pic on the outnet, where it's on sale for $200. Always feels good to find an awesome deal
Excited to wear it this summer – super comfy and easy.
