DO NOT NEED TO SPEND MONIES

I worked too hard on that post for it to be on the bottom of the last page. So here it goes for this page:

LADIES! J. Crew's spring sale has arrived.

The following are only $9.99:

seersucker bikini bottom in papaya (shown)... CUTE. I'm a sucker for seersucker, I must say.

twist-front bandeau top in bright cypress and aqua

twist-front bikini bottom only in this bistro orange


egyeyes' list of other worthwhile purchases:

These two tees are super feminine and perfect for spring. Pair with a cute pair of shorts (please, not jorts) or a knee-length or higher flowy skirt.
Scoopneck tee: $29.50



Corsage art tee: $29.99



Silk chiffon Sophia dress in yellow: $39.99 Perfect for that summer wedding.. only in petite sizes. The Sophia comes in regular sizing but is $59.99 on sale and comes in cantaloupe and deep rose (no yellow, unfortunately).

but how good is the sale

4/14/2010 12:34:18 PM

^^ My gf makes some of those cute ruffle shirts out of her old tee-shirts. They come out looking awesome! Here's her tutorial site: http://www.madebylex.com/2009/07/t-shirt-refashion-into-ruffle-madness.html

Cute end result!

4/14/2010 12:36:49 PM

I would love to get that yellow dress if it were on sale in non petite sizes. Actually, I see that is so nevermind.

They have a t shirt dress that I love on sale, but it's not long enough, like everything else that doesn't come in tall sizes.

I bought a cut coral colred dress at H&M yesterday but can't find a pic.

4/14/2010 1:40:01 PM

I just dropped some birthday money at Charlotte Russe (tanks for $5!) and H&M (boyfriend jean shorts, white dress & flowered button down top). I tried Forever 21 but I just didn't have the patience to go through all that -ish.

Really loved this top from JCrew, but I'm gonna have to wait...



and boo they didn't have any 1 piece suits in the store to try on which was my whole reason in GOING to the mall today

4/14/2010 1:47:42 PM

^If you want to try their one-piece suits just go to the store and pick up the red phone they have and order a few. They will ship them to your door for free. The only hassle would be going back to return the ones you don't like. Make sure the ones you like aren't on final sale or else you won't be able to get a refund.

Their swimsuits are catalog and jcrew.com only, for future reference hehe

4/14/2010 4:38:07 PM

They do have swimsuits in the store just not all of them.

The point in going to the store today was so I didn't have to order them/pay for and possibly return them. I want to try it on b4 I order/buy b/c I'll probably need their long torso version, but regardless of normal torso or long torso, since I haven't worn a 1 piece since I was prolly 10 years old, I'm not sure of the size that I would need at all.

4/14/2010 5:26:58 PM

OMG

I ordered this for my FL trip this weekend.

I have never been so happy in my life to order something online (a sundress no less!) and have it fit perfectly and NOT make me look like a whale. OMG YAY.

4/14/2010 7:20:34 PM

^ i really like that. where is it from?

i have been considering ordering a VERY similar dress:

4/14/2010 7:22:51 PM

it's from the plus-size store, it won't fit you skinny minnie

4/14/2010 7:25:53 PM

Imma be honest... they both look like muumuus

4/14/2010 7:27:28 PM

eh, that's OK. i personally love these type of dresses because they hug on your boobies and flow out from there (not hugging the curves) and that's a good thing for a curvy girl

4/14/2010 7:28:47 PM

^^^

^ i like them too because of that. i love long dressessssss.

4/14/2010 7:29:35 PM

shit not for me, they make me look like I've got a bun in the oven

4/14/2010 7:29:55 PM

not for me either, they make me look like a toothpick.

4/14/2010 7:31:23 PM

eh, everyone is different. my curvy body appreciates a little leeway in the tummy region.

4/14/2010 7:32:15 PM

i've just never been one for tight clothes so i like loose dresses

even if they are short i like when they are loose

and i wear a lot of tunic tops

maybe i look preggers in them who knows, but they make me comfy!

4/14/2010 7:34:19 PM

cute dresses ladies! glad yours worked out for you thumper

this is the one I got today at H&M...it needs to warm back up so I can wear it



[Edited on April 14, 2010 at 7:45 PM. Reason : oops ]

4/14/2010 7:43:13 PM

the pic is broken (B to G) but that's soooo cute LK!!!!!!!

and srsly, i can't believe i have a dress that actually looks cute on me. i feel like calling my mom and bragging.

4/14/2010 7:44:43 PM

^^holy crap that is ADORABLE

4/14/2010 7:46:10 PM

do ittttttttttt

and i too love a long dress like that. I got one from express to wear in key west and it's soooooooooooo comfy

(also, commando!! heh)

^thanks! the belt I added...I was wearing my gladiators which I like, but I wish I had some cowboy boots to wear

[Edited on April 14, 2010 at 7:49 PM. Reason : ]

4/14/2010 7:47:06 PM

commando?

WHAT KINDA GIRL DO YOU THINK I AM????????????

4/14/2010 7:48:59 PM

the kind that loves nothing more to be wearing a long dress over an air vent

or to pass dirty glances to her husband at dinner and whisper, "...commando..."

4/14/2010 7:50:22 PM

hahahaha

well my hubby won't be in FL with me but...


i like how you think

4/14/2010 7:51:19 PM

4/14/2010 7:55:42 PM

LK i LOVE the HandM dress

4/14/2010 7:59:41 PM

4/15/2010 11:24:02 AM

I love the first one! I like the other two as well, but I really love No. 1!

4/15/2010 11:25:40 AM

4/15/2010 11:25:46 AM

4/15/2010 11:27:00 AM

4/15/2010 4:45:41 PM

i wasn't lying

4/15/2010 4:51:31 PM

i bought another dress today

and it actually looks really good on me i think it looks terrible in the picture i saw it online and was like meh, but i tried it on in the store and loved it.

4/15/2010 10:44:05 PM

So cute! long dresses are tough. They can look weird on a model, but I feel so sophisticated in them. And they are super comfy!

4/15/2010 11:51:24 PM

^^ That dress is super cute!

And the earrings are awesome too!

I would recommend checking out Rugged Wearhouse off Buck Jones in Cary for super cute cheap namebrand earrings. They are like $1.99 - $3.99!

Also, come see me this weekend at the Durham Art Walk! Music, food and local artists! It should be a good time! I will be at the Carolina Theate!

4/17/2010 4:48:01 PM

I have these:



They're Clark's so they're super comfortable. The Salon Bliss style in pewter, it's kind of between a bronze and gold, a really good neutral.

4/17/2010 7:17:38 PM

Update on the dress for the wedding (from the reception no less lol)

I stopped at the oen door boutique in asheville and got a black and white cotton spaghetti strap dress - wide band of smocking, Empire-ish waist, crossover bodice. Pics possible lol


I've never even gone sleeveless in public before...but I've gotten lots and lots of compliments

At this point, it is what it is

4/17/2010 8:10:38 PM

if I hosted a clothing swap next Sunday, would anyone be able to go?

4/19/2010 9:53:09 AM

^ I might be able to go.
