So just to clarify, you did not buy anything yet, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anne-fontaine-review--wallet-beware#post-574376 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 04:48:21 +0000 gradfashionista 574376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No pics. </p> <p>I should've but I was caught in the moment--I didn't even think about photos! The shirts were sooooo flattering and well made, with lovely cuff links. But I edited my post and left the catalogue link above! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anne-fontaine-review--wallet-beware#post-574375 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 04:45:02 +0000 AJ 574375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well you big tease....where are the pics?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/anne-fontaine-review--wallet-beware#post-574371 Thu, 22 Mar 2012 04:39:27 +0000 gradfashionista 574371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I accompanied my friend on her shopping expedition today and lo and behold, we end up in the Anne Fontaine store. I had *no* intention of buying anything there and I knew going into that store that their prices were a bit ambitious for me. Nevertheless, I ended up trying on two *gorgeous* blouses, really well cut. The first was the Alodie, plaid in vibrant, saturated cool colours (blue, pink, purple), double French white cuffs with a double collar. The other was the Amandine, white, zip-back, billowy sleeves with tight wrist cuffs and a very wide/open, origami -design collar. The fit at the waist was tight. (they can be viewed in the catalogue: <a href="http://www.annefontaine.com/media/catalogue_ss12.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.annefontaine.com/me.....e_ss12.pdf</a>)</p> <p>I asked the SA whether there were sales and she told there were two annual ones--the first week of January and the first week of June--where shirts get reduced by about %30. She took my name and the models that I hoped to purchased and said she'd give me a call a week ahead of time for a pre-sale opportunity to purchase the shirts (hopefully, 38 will still be available, but maybe my will will be stronger...).</p> <p>I was *amazed* at the fit of these garments. Extremely tailored and very flattering, especially compared to the H&amp;M shirts hanging in my cupboard.</p> <p>My heart thanks Angie for this discovery...my wallet, not so much. </p>
