I think I need them in red, but don't know what size to order because I'm typically a 7.5 and they seem to only come in whole sizes.

yep, me too. im a 7.5 but the eight was perfect. i usually go with 8's in sneakers and a 7.5 in regular shoes so im glad the eight fit. be forewarned though...they are super duper flat...just like slippers. and you will need those little scuff things on the bottom cause they have no tread. otherwise, im very very happy.

lynnie -- i am intrigued (in a good way) by your dress. how are you planning on wearing it?

and just so this isn't a total hijack, i picked up a few things this week too...

i got some really cute shoes from the private sale @ bloomies, but most of them i can't find pictures. hopefully i can overcome the serious case of the lazies i'm dealing with & post pictures.

these but in a snakeskin print.

i really wanted the blue patent, but bloomies didn't have them.

and my best score of the week, possibly the year, even though i probably won't wear them for a good six months.

the chloe boots i was obsessed with last fall. i got them on ebay. i really hope they're real. but there's a return policy so i think i'm safe.

They are Isaac Mizrahi for Target, but for some reason are only on the Amazon website. I was worried they weren't really in stock - but I just got an email that they've shipped. They also have them in brown and dark pink. I already have them in my TT size and they are a big snug (but I have wide feet) so I was overjoyed to be able to order them a half size larger.

Hope this helps! I just searched Isaac Mizrahi on the Amazon website.

Right now i just have it on with an oatmeal tshirt. I like it with off the shoulder shirts too though, and tank tops, and blouses like they have with the short set. I'll take pics when i get back from colorado. i love it.

asf · Kate Spade

lynnie, i bet that dress looks awesome on you. it's so funky, post pics for sure!

Just these two tops for layering under cardis and jackets. The total was $14 for both.

This one has a sort of lacy overlay.

This is a regular cotton stretch cami, but I just wanted to do a close-up of the pattern.

Boy, I have been doing SO WELL with my shopping ban. It took me a couple months to get my act together, but I have been good about not shopping. I bought a blue skirt from Anthro last week (I posted about it in another thread), but I am using self control to return it. Sometimes you just need to buy something, even if you think you're going to end up returning it.

i thought this dress would be fun for the summer. i just hope it's not too short.

i'm a sucker for anything embroidered. we'll see what the quality is like in real life.

Xhilaration® Acadia Printed Canvas Shoes - Brown

Got these from Target last week and forgot to post them. I just wanted to take them home and see if they'd really fit in with my wardrobe. (I didn't think they would but I thought they were so cute!)

Anyway, I've already worn them and they are comfy and cute! I can't wait to wear them again. Maybe they'll be my summer go-to shoes. And for only $12.99, you can't go wrong, right?
