^ Well, then you need to go to London. I found it in one of the Zara stores there.

Have a nice day!

Had to check if I could use paypal to pay with at Topshop.com, and yeah it worked, here is my order:

kokopuff, i wanted that Vanessa Bruno dress when NAP first got it in but it sold out in my size after going on sale. I really like it though. It's one of those great versatile wardrobe staples. I'm sure you'll get a lot of wear out of it.

 

[Velony]

Ditte, are there little stars on the jumpsuit? very cute!

 

[caroulemapoule]

Verena: Yes it is... I love it, so I had to have it

 

[Velony]

I'd love to see modelling pics when you get it to see how it fits. I'm also waiting for my topshop order to arrive. I bought mostly basics though.

 

[caroulemapoule]

You should show us anyway, dear
I will post pics when it arrives

Balenciaga dress. The pictures do it no justice at all

BCBG heels

Aldo heels

Wolford tube dress

Ray Ban wayfarers

Minnetonka lace-up moccasins

Which came with the most adorable teeny moccasin key chain!:

No pictures, but from GAP, a white and heathered warm gray pullover, maxi dress, and floral shirt
American Apparel, double u-neck dress and pullover both in black
Minnetonka, driving moccasins (which I am returning) and zip-up moccasins for a customization project

^Love those BCBG heels! I considered getting them in the nude/tan colorway, but they hurt my feet. I have sensitive little footsies.

MichelleYue the bal dress looks exquisite. omg and the shoes! i am thinking about getting the beige ones great purchases!

 

[Velony]

Michelle, I just bought that exact same Wolford dress two weeks ago and love it. it's so versatile. if the weather was hot here i'd never take it off.

 

[rochasfille]

^How stretchy are the Wolford Fatale dresses? I am like a size 4-6 US, and I don't know whether I should go with a M or a S (I take a M in their tights). I have been wanting one for a while, as well as the Taisha skirt, which I assume would have the same fit. TIA for any input.

So many great purchases !!

I got this vintage dress on ebay.
I love the floral pattern of this fabric, the mix of Violet, Lilac, Olive green and a creamy white background, the vertically ruched bodice, 3/4 lgth sleeve, with a pretty, flowing full skirt and I got it..

Closeup of the fabric:

..for only $ 8.99 (not incl shipping).
Seller said the dress was in good vintage condition, but that the zipper was stuck..
Stuck and 'good vintage condition' hardly! (holes in the fabric albeit places that aren't making the dress unwearable and that I can 'work around' because the fabric is so busy..)
The zipper tracks crumbled as in disintegrated (never had that happen before) when I tried to pull it.. but anyway I was prepared to replace the zipper, remove the hem and take the dress in a bit.. so for 8.99 I'm not going to bother complaining..

The print is gorgeous, Hanne !!

 

[Nymf]

from dubai:

red line (with tiny diamonds

Here are the Lanvin flats I talked about a while ago. Got them from eBay.

(With and without flash.)

Photos taken by me.

 

[caroulemapoule]

Wauw, they finally arrived Vista, I am happy for you. Did you wear them out yet, do you like them?

 

[Vista]

caroulemapoule: I just got them a couple of hours ago, so I haven't had a chance to wear them. Tried them on a lot though... I'm currently in bed with the black patent pair. The silver pair is 10 x better to walk in than the others because of a cushion-thing in the back. They really are the best shoes I've ever tried on. The others are great as well, but the silvers are A-W-E-S-O-M-E. Really happy with them all.
