RE: Week of 2/19 Shopping...

erin · Chanel

ack! i've been wanting this dress awhile. it went on sale 70% off today (nordstrom):

CheryleB · Kenneth Cole

I saw this dress on the Nordstrom site last summer and loved it so when I saw it on e-bay this week, I bought it. I think someone else may have bought it as I remember seeing a post on it. If so, I'd love a review.

I just

that dress. I watched in on Nordstrom forever but never bought it. Could you give a review when you get it. I wonder about the sizing.

since everyone raves about the dream tisha bra, i bought one off ebay..and a chantelle bra from the same seller. (really good deals, nwot!) i have always been cheap about bras, but what's the point of having nice clothing if it doesn't look the best due to poor underpinnings?

Good choice! Those are my two favorite brands

Can you review this dress? I love the color and fabric content but am concerned that the seam may be too high on me. I wear a 32E bra and find many tops/dresses with the underbust seam are too high and look silly on me.

Gosh, everyone got such cute stuff this week! I just got these workout dvds:

This skirt but in the color hyacinth. I had ordered it one time before in the black/white pictured but it ran small for me in my usual size. I sent it back. When I was on the VS website the other day I noticed it on sale and I had a coupon code so I couldn't resist.

I think this picture is actually a little misleading. There is really only about 3 inches between the lowest part of the v neck and the tie, but the picture makes it look like there is more fabric. I got a small and wear a 34b and it fits perfect. However, I tried the medium on and there was a lot more room in the bust but it was also way big in the waist, even with it tied. hope that helps. Let me know if you need more info.

I found it last night at a B&M Neiman Marcus. It fits really well. I was pleasantly surprised. I'm 5'9" and it wasn't too short so that I couldn't wear it to work. I usually wear an 8 in DVF wrap dresses and I took an 8 in this one.
