Those are some great finds!! I have been holding myself back, as I have been purchasing more than I probably should from CAbi. I host two shows per year so that I can get some items at half off, and then I shop the end of season sales, so I'm not quite done buying all of the items I've picked out... But I did allow myself to take advantage of 40% off on the Twice website and bought two tops - I'm super excited about the J.Crew white one... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions/page/2#post-1403331 Sat, 29 Nov 2014 15:35:26 +0000 Susie 1403331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did it....the booties are headed my way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions/page/2#post-1403318 Sat, 29 Nov 2014 13:45:55 +0000 gryffin 1403318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Firecracker - wow, they are sooooooooooooooo mean!!&nbsp; But yes with that gorgeous but pricey jacket it is totally worth the mortification and effort to get that cash back into your pocket!!&nbsp; Best of luck and hopefully it won't take too long!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions/page/2#post-1403290 Sat, 29 Nov 2014 04:24:51 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1403290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It' official--I'm going to brave the crowds tomorrow (Saturday). I called AllSaints and I not only have to go to the store in person, but I have to bring the jacket back in to get a price adjustment. (Nordstrom they are not--grumble, grumble.) It will be worth the bus fare and hassle, I guess, for 20% off the price. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions/page/2#post-1403274 Sat, 29 Nov 2014 00:51:28 +0000 gryffin 1403274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Caro - thank you!!

I love a great topper and this deserves something special. Good luck on the hunt and enjoy your beautiful dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions#post-1403269 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 23:50:54 +0000 Anonymous 1403269@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Gryffin. It's one of those dresses that looks better on than off. What I like best is the thick fabric and construction that actually makes my stomach look flat. What's not to love about that? Also, it has a really nice belt that I actually want to keep. The dress is longer on me than on the model, but still above the knee. I was wearing tall boots when I tried the dress on, and it looked so good. I can picture wearing navy tights with it. I just don't have the right topper... yet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions#post-1403265 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 23:11:45 +0000 gryffin 1403265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>BC - that's an adorable dress!!

I did, however, venture out with my 3 daughters&nbsp;to Banana Republic, Gap and Old Navy factory stores. At BR, I found this classic sheath. When I asked my daughters what they thought, they all said, "It's you," the size 8P&nbsp;fit me perfectly, and it's very well made. Of course it had to come home with me! It was 50% off, and&nbsp;was all I bought.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1014198&amp;vid=3&amp;pid=211118002">http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....=211118002</a></p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions#post-1403245 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 18:55:45 +0000 Inge 1403245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Our pleasure, Gryffin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions#post-1403232 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 17:04:02 +0000 gryffin 1403232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Inge. - thank you!!

It looks like a perfect addition for you.</p> <p>My confession is that I DIDN'T buy! Last night I was searching through the designer sale section of Nordstrom and added 4 things to my bag to consider. All were tempting but I don't have any true needs. So I just saved all of them. But I might just have to try pair of booties:</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/derek-lam-dae-leather-suede-bootie-women/3759305?origin=saveforlater" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/de.....veforlater</a></p> <p>And my searching saved me money! I saw that a Vince Camuto clutch I recently ordered is now on sale. I can request a price adjustment, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions#post-1403194 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 12:50:26 +0000 gryffin 1403194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Crutcher - enjoy the leggings!!

The coat you just bought I'd stunning and it has such a dramatic neckline. I think great outerwear is such an important investment for cold climates. Sometimes that is all everyone gets to see. (Okay add in awesome boots, bags, gloves....,) that is at least a little happy dance for those long gray well currently white weather over here!! Hope you are enjoying your gorgeous coats!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions#post-1403157 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 04:27:52 +0000 Suz 1403157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a beautiful coat and I love the neckline.

Do you know I am sitting here in my danskin leggings, nikita hoodie and ice clogs!!&nbsp; Happy to be twins and so happy hubs approves!!&nbsp; Isn't the material of the hoodie awesome - just a bit more polished and I really like the longer length!!&nbsp; So happy!!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions#post-1403116 Fri, 28 Nov 2014 01:31:19 +0000 Classically Casual 1403116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I drool over the Vince offerings early every morning it seems when the daily email arrives.&nbsp; If they offered items in more colors I'd be in serious financial trouble.</p> <p>So gryffin, I think I have a double confession.&nbsp; I did make a Black Friday purchase, but it was last week during the lounge wear discussions. I tracked down the NIKITA boxy hoodie you mentioned at a local snowboard shop (leave no retail stone unturned).&nbsp; The length, etc. were fab, and they already were selling items at their Black Friday price, so I brought it home.&nbsp; It's fab with the Zella leggings I snagged at NAS that have gone unworn, waiting for a long enough top.&nbsp; The only part of your outfit I was missing were the Merrel Ice Clogs.&nbsp; Lo and behold, Nordies had them for 50% off.&nbsp; Last night they showed up on the porch.&nbsp; So today, I'm in full-on lounge wear mode.&nbsp; Hubs really likes it all, and I'm so comfy.&nbsp; So I'm confessing to being a total lemming as well as a Black Friday purchaser...but it's a great outfit.&nbsp; THANK YOU!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/black-friday-confessions#post-1403105 Thu, 27 Nov 2014 22:19:48 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1403105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The coats are fabulous--both the new one and the one you already have. <br />After saying on another thread that I don't do Black Friday shopping, I might brave the crowds this weekend (not on Friday--I'll be working!) to shop for a computer. And to get a price adjustment on the All Saints jacket I bought a few days ago. I'll probably be doing some online shopping--I may indulge in cyber Monday and get some stuff on my Nordstrom wish list, with the 10 points promotion. </p>
