I love Pinterest! It gave me great ideas when I was redecorating the guest bedroom. I also find a lot of fun recipes on there that I have tried out. And I love looking at the fashion stuff

9/14/2011 10:40:04 PM

@sam, it's kinda like visual bookmarks. you have boards that you can label whatever you want, then just "pin" images or videos from websites to them. it's great for food, clothes, & decor.

9/14/2011 10:42:56 PM

I'm already addicted

9/14/2011 10:47:48 PM

The iPhone app is fun. I flip through it when I have free time but am not near a computer.

9/14/2011 10:48:53 PM

Lol @ Sam. When you see it you'll understand.

9/14/2011 10:57:09 PM

hahahahaha Brandi

I started giggling like a damn schoolgirl


ps? I hate y'all for getting me into this


LOOK AT THIS


LOOK AT IT

So my gf and I have been dating for very close a year. I'm thinking of getting this for her. is this ok?! I'm new at this still. Maybe something else to go with it, not sure what.

9/15/2011 4:06:15 AM

I think that is adorable.

9/15/2011 7:35:38 AM

Super cute! Love the dress. Just be careful that it fits. Or that it's returnable. Nothing worse than an item of clothing that fits improperly ... And that you can't return.

You should get her jewelry to go with it. Stella & Dot has beautiful jewelry that fits that style of dress. Or go the classic route and go for a simple, small diamond necklace.

Or, go cheaper but more sentimental with a special photo of the two of you in a simple, beautiful frame.

Just curious, have any of you ladies had your boyfriend get you clothes that he picked out? Him getting you something he knows you want is one thing, but I think it's pretty awesome if he picks something out himself (if he doesn't suck at it). And I seriously love that dress. GG Bweez.

9/15/2011 9:00:58 AM

My husband has given me nice jewelry and accessories he's picked out. Sometimes if we're at the store together he'll pull out a shirt or something he think I'll look good in.

9/15/2011 9:11:40 AM

DivaBaby19 I am REALLY liking that look you posted earlier, but it's from Lands' End.
I got all excited going to the LL Bean website and was like where is it?
I really really want

Jewelry and shoes though I think are different. Clothes take a little more confidence on the guy's part, and I like that. I'd be way impressed if my bf ever got me actual clothes.

9/15/2011 9:14:47 AM

^^yeah I figured that out last night but was too lazy to edit my post

haha

also that dress has enough going so don't buy her jewelry you intend for her to wear with it (unless it was a few killer bangles)

I diamond necklace is fabulous, but not if you're going for the full outfit route.

I had a boyfriend who always bought clothing for me. He loved shopping for women's outfits. Was always shopping for outfits for his daughter and for me. He also had a tramp stamp, wore True Religion jeans and was addicted to flowery Bath & Body lotions. He was an AMAZING shopper.

It was a shame when we finally broke up.

My husband bought me a beautiful cashmere sweater a couple years ago for Christmas and I left it in a hotel in VA last year. When I called the hotel the next day after we left, of course they said they didn't find it

[Edited on September 15, 2011 at 9:31 AM. Reason : g]

9/15/2011 9:29:53 AM

OHHH! That's sad!

I think cashmere is one of the best things you can give someone. It's a decadent indulgence ... something most folks won't buy for themself.

9/15/2011 9:37:37 AM

the only thing that makes me about cashmere is when i lived at home my parents had moths (it was a wicked old house) and they ate some really nice stuff.

why they gotta go after the expensive shit??? it's like they know!!

Are you sure he wasn't gay?

9/15/2011 9:40:34 AM

^ haha she made a thread asking if he was

9/15/2011 9:41:20 AM

That's why we broke up. He was also into dudes. I didn't want to deal with that. I didn't know if he was ... but some of our mutual friends have since confirmed my suspicions.

At least I got some CUTE clothes out of the deal!

Bweez, A++++ on that dress! Very pretty

The only thing Eric has gotten me by himself is an NC State shirt well, and jewelry. Usually he will just take me to pick out stuff (like a H&M one year for my birthday)... Mainly because we have totally different styles and he can never keep track of what catches my eye at that point in time

have any of you been to the llbean store in VA?

9/15/2011 10:27:52 AM

^ i've been to the one in tysons corner, that place is huge!!

9/15/2011 10:30:35 AM

how much do they carry in-store, compared to online (clothes-wise)?

9/15/2011 10:38:56 AM

omg Samwise16 i gace my mom on of those for christmas a few years ago.

it is awesome.

9/15/2011 10:45:42 AM

I thought about samwise when I saw these shoes....but let it be known, the Mary Jane is my absolute favorite style of shoe (followed by a D'orsay pump)

http://www.realsimple.com/beauty-fashion/shoes-accessories/shoes/mary-jane-shoes-00100000064818/index.html

Today's real simple showed off Mary Janes and I'm in lurrrve with this shoe (and its a spectator which is even more awesome)

9/15/2011 10:47:04 AM

I want those. Bad.

9/15/2011 10:52:09 AM

i've been looking for some new Mary Jane black pumps. i'm not crazy about peep toe mostly because my feet push forward a lot in my shoes and then my toes are like dangling for dear life.

A LOT

i get lost in there

AND OMG the W bedding on rue la la today :drooooool: \]

9/15/2011 10:53:46 AM

I think I might splurge and buy these for myself!

my brown mary jane heels had a strap that ripped off last april, I sewed it back together but maybe I should buy these

NICE!

I prob should have told you when I was at Starwood that I got a 75% discount on W bedding and W beds. Now it's just Disney stuff.

9/15/2011 11:17:00 AM

those are super cute too!

i really like these but the nude looks more pink than nude. hmmm

9/15/2011 11:18:30 AM

yum!

Its a nice nude...less pink than a lot I've seen

9/15/2011 11:19:49 AM

i would need to go see them in person. i wish the black was a patent leather and not a flat black leather.

9/15/2011 11:21:48 AM

on no no no I love the contrast!

Makes me think of these valentino pumps I wanted at Saks last year....OM MY JESUS I WILL HAVE THEM





[Edited on September 15, 2011 at 11:36 AM. Reason : so silly]

9/15/2011 11:30:44 AM

oh no i meant the all black mary jane pump - i wish it was a patent. the nude/black one is done very nicely.

9/15/2011 11:33:22 AM

oh yeah! I thought that too when I looked at all the colors

9/15/2011 11:34:55 AM

it either needed to be a patent or a textured leather. not just a flat leather

9/15/2011 11:36:43 AM

DO WANT!!!!!! I will wear my Mary janes today I also want some penny loafers, BAD

9/15/2011 11:38:54 AM

^ i would've bought those if they were under $100

9/15/2011 11:39:59 AM

How much are they??

9/15/2011 11:40:58 AM

$730

9/15/2011 11:48:18 AM

Holy shit

9/15/2011 11:51:36 AM

hahhaa I've seen cheaper versions of that shoe every year

just gotta hunt

9/15/2011 11:52:54 AM

Yeah nine west has a similar one I believe.. I can hunt for it


I am torn between these two:






The top pair is $20 cheaper... And I like the crocodile. But I also love the style of the second one
