Yay or Nay?

[lightningfields]

yes to the dress. it looks like it'd be quite versatile and i love the scalloped edge.

Nay to the dress... that length is never flattering on anyone. If you hemmed it, it would be lovely though.

 

[oiselet]

I dunno about this dress. Yay or nay?

My answer to the dress in Post #1743 is Yay! I am very much a sucker for cute girly dresses. I'd like it better if it had a better looking pattern, but for what it is, this dress is a winner.

I just bought this navy parka and I like the clean look and the small, yet cool details. However, this parka set me back $560. I love A.P.C.'s outerwear and their Petit Standard jeans but their pricing on outerwear is at times ridiculously high. I love this one though and promised myself to buy it two A/W seasons ago but never did.

Should I keep it or return it? Yay or nay? Schlay or phlay?

Ali.M, I say yay. You can't go wrong with a nice, simple parka.

Chrissy & Chic, thank you for your replies. You're right, it's a nice parka and just when I thought I made a good purchase I accidentally noted a flaw on the product and the stitching was not done very well on some areas. I can't believe A.P.C. being this "casual" on a $560 piece . The jacket seems quite fragile and I don't think it will hold for more than a season or two.

The parka is going back for the flaws/defects I found and hopefully they'll give me a new one or a compensation but I'm not sure if I'll keep it anyway.

Sorry, I don't like the coats, Ali. It's just too much of a ferryman. Nay...

^Ali, I like the first one a lot! My second choices are the dark navy one and the last one, even though it looks brown to me? Which I don't like. Olive would be better, but it could be the picture.

It says the listing has been removed. I think that answers your question.

The last one from Our Legacy is quite cool. It looks brown but the description says "Olive", but yeah, it's kinda dark. I also like APC's take on the duffle coat by adding a zipper. I actually like that coat more than the APC navy parka I've just bought (it's going back).

Sorry, nay. The volume is a tad bit overwhelming and the style is kinda blah.

 

[Citypigeon]

a Topshop leather jacket on ebay I lost an auction for, but the highest bidder stepped down so now I can get it for a total of about $130 including shipping... In the item desc. it says the original retail was £120 and the details are as follows:
"It has a zip to the front and two zipped front pockets, as well as suede trimmings around the shoulders and front and poppers at the collar."
yay,nay??

 

[chicandcool]

^ Yay.
