Called every clothing boutique in Newton Highlands and nobody recognizes my description. Oh well, it wasn't meant to be, especially after I bought 3 new pair of shoes, a jacket, a cardi and pair of colored denims. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-feel-my-frustration#post-736348 Mon, 01 Oct 2012 23:02:50 +0000 unfrumped 736348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The same thing happens to me! Good thing we don't all walk around with little signs beaming off our clothing ( "BR end of season sale!") but I do see people that I'd like to ask, where did you get that? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-feel-my-frustration#post-735819 Mon, 01 Oct 2012 13:07:10 +0000 Mochi 735819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Second Time Around is in Newton Highlands, and there may be one or so other places like that. It just came to mind. This doesn't mean there aren't boutiques in that town that sell beautiful new items. Good luck and let me know what you find out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-feel-my-frustration#post-735813 Mon, 01 Oct 2012 13:01:39 +0000 Ann in New England 735813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ack! I didn't think about consignment stores. Although from her response, I didn't get the feeling that it was ... she was trying to describe the location to me (near the stoplight) and I don't think she'd bother if it was consignment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-feel-my-frustration#post-735803 Mon, 01 Oct 2012 12:28:25 +0000 Mochi 735803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Please let me know when you do. That's not far from me at all. There are also high-fashion consignment stores there, which might explain the low price (and mean you won't find another sweater like that, so I hope it's not consignment...) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-feel-my-frustration#post-735800 Mon, 01 Oct 2012 12:24:15 +0000 Ann in New England 735800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mochi, I don't mind. She said it was in Newton Highlands.<br /> I just googled "boutiques in Newton Highlands" and found 2 possiblities -- I will call them later and see if they'll be able to help me by phone.</p> <p>Of course I know that if/when I do locate this sweater, it will probably look terrible on, or I'll find out that the $50 price was an error! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-feel-my-frustration#post-735792 Mon, 01 Oct 2012 12:02:20 +0000 Mochi 735792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Which town was it in, Ann? (Just curious, because I live in Boston and am somewhat familiar with the area as well as western Mass....if you don't want to say so, I understand.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-feel-my-frustration#post-735787 Mon, 01 Oct 2012 11:36:36 +0000 rute 735787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>eh eh that happens to me!<br /> Sometimes I see on a stranger someting that I've been looking for and cannot ask where has she bought that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/can-you-feel-my-frustration#post-735784 Mon, 01 Oct 2012 11:34:38 +0000 Ann in New England 735784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yesterday I was at a literary tea, and spotted a woman across the room wearing the most stunning sweater. During a short break, I just had to go over and compliment her, and ask her where she had gotten it. She told me that she had bought it recently, that it was only $50 (it looked like it should have been $500!) but she didn't know the name of the store. It was in a town that I am not familiar with, about an hour away from me. She said it was by the stoplight. It was not an appropriate atmosphere for me to ask her to check the tag, or let me look at it. I'm tempted to take a drive to that town, but it's just not in my schedule for the next week or more.</p> <p>Now I've been dreaming of this unattainable sweater. Does this ever happen to you?</p> <p>(It was a gray background, tunic length, with circles of various sizes in shades of dark red, cream and black. It was lovelier than I make it sound). </p>
