new boots!!!

nine west outlet, love it



ive never owned boots like this and cant wait to wear them, especially with some wool skirts i have for work.

how do i wear them with jeans? or can i? all my jeans are flare-ish or boot leg style. my question is about tucking them in or just pull them over. they'll fit over the boot but i dont know if tucking them in will look weird??

i also have them in brown

I have those boots.. they're fabulous <3

I wear mine under boot cut jeans or with a pair of skinny jeans... I tried tucking my flares into them and it looked funny

10/8/2010 8:23:03 PM

yeah it does look funny which is prob why i didnt like it

i dont own skinny jeans right now so i'll have to rock em with tights and skirts for now. thx!

10/9/2010 12:26:37 AM

you can even get a pair of denim leggings...some look kinda cheap but some brands do have nice quality.....also forever21 skinny jeans are actually pretty nice. I've had mine for two years with no tear

Work gave me a $100 gift certificate today.

I can't decide between jewelry and this stetson hat that I've been eyeing for a while. It's grey felt. I have purposely stayed away from the jewelry counter all summer

holy crap - between the name, and the design, this just cracks me up

10/9/2010 7:58:06 PM

yeah i have no idea what to even do with that

10/9/2010 8:29:50 PM

If you were alone and contemplating how you're supposed to use it, you'd figure it out pretty quickly.

10/9/2010 9:18:49 PM

you'd be surprised how clueless i am when it comes to things of that nature

10/9/2010 9:49:58 PM

people who know stuff about fabrics/textiles: what can i use to dye/color tulle? i have a tutu that is light pink that i want to be hot pink but i know only certain kinds of dyes (or whatever, i'm using that term generally to include other things, like paint and stuff) can be used on that, because some kinds eat through it. so what should i use? what would work best? what would be easiest?

THANKS

10/10/2010 3:24:49 PM

gosh i feel like modcloth is getting more expensive or something, but there are some tops i really want.

like this, with black jeans (or dark blue denim)


and this, though i dunno if i could pull this color off, but its only left in large anyway so it doesn't matter!


this is like $85 but oh my god do i want



this is pale, but i have dark hair and eyes so i can sometimes pull off light things w/o looking washed out even though i have pale skin:


this is left in size S (only 2 left) but i dunno if i'm a S or M. probably a S in dresses and tops. i think. i don't know...


and why does this dress with cats on it have to be sold out? lol. WANT


but REALLY i got a paycheck yesterday at work and i'm depositing tomorrow and treating myself to these boots i've been dying for. i've posted them before. what color should i get? i want all colors, but leaning toward brown or grey.


i also want a new pair of minnetonka mocs (these are by far my fav shoes of all time, super comfy)

maybe grey. i have brown and tan but my tan ones are kinda old so i could replace those too. hmmm. but if i get boots these will have to wait!

10/10/2010 4:24:33 PM

Tulle can be made of different types of fibers.. polyester, nylon, silk...

I'm guessing that since it's a tutu, it's just polyester or a nylon. RIT dye is the easiest to obtain, and while it dyes cottons better, it can still dye your synthetic fibers.

Hell, it'll even dye silk, but where you run into problems is in the temperature of the dyeing...

10/10/2010 4:26:59 PM

Katherine,
Every single thing you posted, except the shirt above the cat dress, is hideous.

[Edited on October 10, 2010 at 4:31 PM. Reason : think]
I lied - the yellow sweater is rather cute.

[Edited on October 10, 2010 at 4:35 PM. Reason : sd]

10/10/2010 4:30:46 PM

I am a fan of what you posted, kat. I own a pair of light brown/tan minnetonka moccasins with beads. My only regret that day is not purchasing a dark brown pair and a pink pair because I got mine for $2. They are about the most comfortable shoes I have (besides my grandma looking Doc Marten's).

[Edited on October 10, 2010 at 4:35 PM. Reason : am]

10/10/2010 4:34:22 PM

^^ nooo! I <3 it all. esp the vest!

^^^ thanks! i was wondering if RIT dye would work. so i guess i'll just use that

^ i know! i have a blue pair with beads also that i like. how did you get them for $2? that is a steal!!!

10/10/2010 4:36:49 PM

Yeah, i like the stuf two, especially the gray thingy. I worry the dresses would make you look lime the rectangle though

10/10/2010 4:38:56 PM

^ the denimy one? yea i was thinking that too. it is SUPER boxy haha. and i DON'T wanna be the rectangle. i like the tops mostly the first one and the white/grey tunic thing.

how is chi-town?

10/10/2010 4:40:42 PM

I got my minnetonkas so cheap at Rugged Warehouse like 6 pr 7 years ago. I did not know they were so expensive (bc I don't know brand names at all) so that is another reason I will continue to mentally kick myself.

Oh, I HEART ANTHROPOLOGIE and I wish I could afford to just shop there. It is not in my budget and it makes me kind of sad. I have always wished I could make my own clothes and a lot of what I like about that store is the "homemade" look.

10/11/2010 7:55:29 PM

macy's juniors section is having a huge clearance sale with 99cent shipping on clearance stuff (code: 99Cents) til tomorrow. i found some cute things, but i can never decide what size i wear in juniors

at target it varies depending on what it is. sometimes a small sometimes a medium. i'm only ordering dresses and tops so i guess i'm gonna go with S in the tops and M in the dresses and hope they work. i dunno. i'm nervous.

EDIT: the 99cents shipping applies to shipping on ALL clearance all over the site. so...hurry there are some good deals but it ends tomorrow

Do you guys think I have the legs to make booties work? I am dying to get these:



only $30 from payless, woot

[Edited on October 12, 2010 at 8:14 PM. Reason : for the record, I just don't want to look like I have cankles]

10/12/2010 8:12:33 PM

^ i say DO IT!!

i just got: 3 dresses, 1 tunic, 2 tops, and a pair of flats for $120 (including tax and shipping)

i don't expect it all to fit, but i sure hope a couple of pieces work! i'm excited!!

10/12/2010 8:48:49 PM

Girls, I absolutely love this thread and have decided that I so need to start contributing. I hope you don't mind a new person in here

I am obsessed with clothes and shoes and am known at work as "that girl" with the excessive amount of shoes.

Anthropologie is my absolute favorite store but as mentioned earlier it is beyond $$ so it is more of a splurge place...that being said I am dying for this coat.. http://tiny.cc/c6l55
For some reason I could not insert the picture of it...sry

10/12/2010 8:56:00 PM

Welcome to our thread!

Here's the picture of your coat:



I think it's gorgeous but I'm way too short for something like it. If I were tall enough, I'd splurge on it when it goes on sale!

10/12/2010 9:01:26 PM

SO PRETTY!

i am short and have a longer coat like that BUT it is for short people so the waistline is up WAY higher like under my boobs almost so it doesn't make me a stub.

10/12/2010 9:04:39 PM

ok it is about time to go shopping for jeans.

so I need your help - what is the "it" or coolest brand/type of jeans right now?

10/12/2010 9:17:37 PM

^ i don't know what is "IT" i just stick to what i like. my favs are citizens, joes and sometimes sevens. i stick to the brands that fit me best. i AM really into skinny jeans right now though, as far as style goes.

i wanna post what i just ordered. it'd be fab if it all fit, but i'm not expecting that but here is what i got...links because its macy's and i'm lazy.

Either True Religions, Joes or 7s, based on your fit preference. I prefer True Religions.

10/12/2010 9:40:12 PM

my favorites are Seven Dojos and A-Pockets...then Citizen Ingrids...

my new favorites are some style of Antik Denim...I got a pair for $10 at the Bargain Box



oh...and sam...unless you tried them on in the store don't go the payless bootie route...i tried them on and they looked retarded...they are very ill fitting

10/13/2010 11:12:41 AM

Christine, if you're staying in CO this winter you should see if the shop has a nice wool hat if a stetson isn't super warm. the good ones are surprisingly expensive, so a "free" one could be beneficial. you might have enough left over for some cool jewelry too

10/13/2010 11:48:17 AM

got these booties last night



I am very pleased with my purchase

10/14/2010 11:12:09 AM

oooo....i really like those...

i got my halloween costume yesterday and i'm pleased with it as well....even though it is a mass produced target costume and completely unoriginal

10/14/2010 11:56:11 AM

has anyone used Tresseme's new dry shampoo products (like the spray for straight hair, or mousse for curly?)

10/14/2010 4:01:31 PM

Yes! I have used the dry stuff for straight hair. It works pretty well but I got some Ojin dry shampoo from Sephora and I like it better. I think it's worth trying the treseme stuff. It might work better for you.

10/14/2010 4:18:19 PM

yes yes yes!! I love the tresseme's dry for straight hair. I use it every 3rd day after my shampoo, it's the most amazing hair product I've ever had.

10/14/2010 4:53:27 PM

I don't know if this will show up but I wish I could wear this dress. Even if I weren't pregnant I would not attempt to wear it (a little too big everywhere, I suppose) but it is so darn cute!! I just love it.

10/14/2010 5:08:20 PM

OOOH! LOVE THAT DRESS! I'd wear it, except it's anthropologie, so it's prob $150 to $200, which is a tad steep for a denim dress.

10/14/2010 5:10:18 PM

Oh no, girl, American Eagle, $19.95.

Oh boy, do I love Anthropologie!!

10/14/2010 5:11:11 PM

OOOH! Nevermind ... I read the wrong image source. Very cool. I might have to get one of those. People in Florida aren't phased by a little skin. And I have a couple of little cardigans that would go perfectly with that.

10/14/2010 5:12:48 PM

I tried my spin pin yesterday. I think my hair may be too thin for it to work very well. I tucked my bun in pretty tight and then put it in at home, then shook my head a little and it halfway fell out. So I tried to get it even more secure. I decided to wear it to the gym because other people had said it held their hair really well, but 10 steps into my warmup jog it fell totally out. I will try it again, but I am disappointed

here's some stuff I'm considering, i should pare it down some though.


the vest is what i like here. it's got a nice knit pattern.


cardi thing

10/15/2010 2:37:36 PM

I just went to a women's luncheon and saw a bunch of brown boots. Now I really really want brown boots.

10/15/2010 2:38:29 PM

but they are $150. even w/ the discount codes, out of my price range right now. sigh.
