DO I NEED IT?
Permalink Closed

 



do i need this?  i really like it.  i have nowhere to wear it to, but i think it would be cool for the spring/summer next year.  and i love the material and halter style.  i guess i could even do chunky sweater and boots for fall.  but it's almost $400.

i like it, but you don't need it.  esp. if you don't have anywhere to wear it. 


that's my frugal side speaking.

It's pretty and I can see how you could throw a sweater on with it to wear during the winter, but it still doesn't seem that practical to me.  It could be a cool "out to a nice dinner" dress, but $400 seems steep for that kind of thing.  You could get a lot of other cool things for $400, but that is my opinion.  Sleep on it awhile and see if you still want it.

damnit Karina!!  why did you have to ask. 


too much.  $275.  i'm looking for a long sleeve, fun shirt, similar to one that i bought a while ago that i feel amazing in, and can pull out and know that i look good in it.  even if it has a pattern everyone will remember.  i think this shirt would be fun with my purple bulga, gold or silver heels, etc.  and i would rather fork over more for a shirt that i love than buy a ton.  also, i'm almost done with my fall shopping, except for the odd bcbg item here and there.  i'm still torn at the price tag since it's the most i've ever spent on a shirt.

It's really pretty, but that's a lot of dough. Someone posted a gorgeous patterned kimono top a few weeks ago that was around $100, but of course I can't remember whose post it was or where the top was from. dammit!
