This Milly dress...

catgirl

has been appearing on my sidebar (no idea why) and I'm thinking it's working into my brain subliminally, because I kind of love it:

It looks like Natalie and Heather's Jason Wu dress!

I know, and there was a similar-looking skirt at F21 in a different colorway:

I've always wondered why certain items appear too. . .and I've thought (in my super-cynical former Database designer mind) if it has to do with a Google algorithm involving YLF sponsored advertisers, what I've been recently searching for, where I've recently been searching, and even what I might have saved in shopping carts that are in my cookies. . .

How's that for a conspiracy theorem?!

BTW - the dress is pretty awesome

Good thing your side bar ad isn't the Leatherman multi-knife that's on my page~!

You ladies sure are finding some wonderful dresses lately---like this one Una--good eye!

Oh, I occasionally get one about a career in animation with a disintegrating monster man... Could use the knife to defeat him, I guess!

It's incredibly cute in person! You may just HAVE to get it.

Nakidra, have you seen it? It's probably quite long (and expensive - eep!). Do tell!

It looked to be about knee length on me so it would be a bit longer on you, right? It is expensive and I did see a lot of similar dresses this past week. BCBG had a really cute pleated skirt dresses. They were all over the place!

Didn't you try a similar style dress before (flared skirt) and decided it is not you?

Ooh, cute dress!

(For some reason my sidebar always seems to have an ad for those crazy hooflike heelless shoes that the girl was wearing in Greg's Bill Cunningham photos...)

That dress is really pretty! But somehow it seems super girly compared to what I know about your style. I would love to see you in it though! I think you'd have to tough it up with a leather jacket or boots! ;P

I know I'm being tracked, and it's pretty creepy. My ads are Kate Spade, Modcloth, Shabby Apple, Nordstrom and Zappos. And the Nordstrom and Zappos ads will feature the stuff I've just been looking at on their site, like Fossil bags or the Jolt jacket. I've never shopped at Shabby Apple but it looks like a bunch of gorgeous vintage-y dresses that are just my style. Right now there's even an Outrigger Hawaii ad (we usually go to Hawaii when we're on vacation). Cue spooky music...

I'm just looking at this thread and I have a Neiman Marcus ad overhead with the Milly dress! I should look into anti-tracking software. . .

Hell, I'm jealous of you ladies' online chutzpah, because my browsing habits are clearly sending out all the wrong signals! This is what I get: http://www.inkfruit.com/most-w.....6wodSE5rPw

No, not even a chef's knife, let alone cool pocket knife --- and forget pretty dresses and skirts and shoes! Who does the internet *think* I am?!

(Hmm... or maybe it's being extremely considerate and helping me stick to my shopping fast. I feel *stalked*! O.O... )

That is very cute.

FWIW, the Milly dresses I've seen in person are quite nicely made. Last year I lusted after one particularly Mad-Men-ish one, but passed on it because it really only suited a lifestyle I do not posess. Good thing too, because now it would just be too big on me like all my other purchases from back then!
