So glad you had the opportunity to get it while it was still available I still mourn a few items I sent back and shouldn't have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fickle-shopping-and-the-return-of-the-kimono#post-974699 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 18:59:15 +0000 missvee 974699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The moto looks like a great piece. I love the detail at the front. I have to confess I bought and returned this kimono too. I liked it well enough but just didn't feel I'd get enough wear out of it to justify the purchase. It looks great on you btw. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fickle-shopping-and-the-return-of-the-kimono#post-974682 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 18:40:45 +0000 Vicki 974682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, what a story, nancylee, and this brought a smile. &nbsp;Glory, I'm a bit like merwoman in that I'll keep the tags on for "further consideration" and see how I feel over a few days. &nbsp;Once I've decided, though, they come off and I will wear the item asap. &nbsp;That's like getting back on the horse, I guess, and going for it.</p> <p>More kimono and moto pics, please. &nbsp;:)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fickle-shopping-and-the-return-of-the-kimono#post-974680 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 18:38:57 +0000 NancyT 974680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fickle-shopping-and-the-return-of-the-kimono#post-974677 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 18:33:43 +0000 Glory 974677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ladies I feel so much better! Here is the kimono picture - should be back in my possession again soon.&nbsp;<br />I will never tell DH or any of the peanut gallery - just got to make sure I am home for the parcels of which there should be a few this week :)<br />Merwoman and Suz - we "might" be kimono triplets.&nbsp;<br />Suz - consider me chastised although I agree it is too hot here<br />NancyLee I am howling and you win the Queen of Repurchase! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fickle-shopping-and-the-return-of-the-kimono#post-974643 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 17:55:10 +0000 nancylee 974643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, I've got you beat! &nbsp;I not only bought the same item twice, but I bought and&nbsp;RETURNED the same item twice. &nbsp;Hilarious. &nbsp;It was a Rachel Roy&nbsp;silk blouse that fit ok but just didn't send me over the moon...plus it was a little too low cut for my comfort level. &nbsp;So I returned it.</p> <p>A month later I noticed it online again and thought "Why didn't I give that blouse more of a chance? &nbsp;The color is perfect for me." &nbsp;So, I ordered it again only to realize AGAIN that it was too low cut for me. &nbsp;*sigh* </p> <p>My crazy buying habits aside, that kimono is excellent. &nbsp;Can't wait to see you wearing it. &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fickle-shopping-and-the-return-of-the-kimono#post-974621 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 17:24:51 +0000 Suz 974621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glory, oh, Glory!!&nbsp;</p> <p>Angie is going to have to spank your bottom if you don't start wearing the heck out of your beautiful clothes!!&nbsp;</p> <p>But I shouldn't talk. Because although I did not take the kimono back, I have not worn it yet!! Now <b>you</b> get to spank <b>my</b> bottom!&nbsp;</p> <p>For me, it has been a temperature/ occasion thing. It's either been too chilly or now, too warm! But I'm sure the right moment for it will come eventually.&nbsp;</p> <p>I really love the moto you linked to. It looks great!&nbsp;</p> <p>I like Merwoman's strategy. She makes returning and then re-buying eminently sensible.&nbsp;So just say that to DH if he rolls his eyes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fickle-shopping-and-the-return-of-the-kimono#post-974607 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 16:54:39 +0000 Astrid 974607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's too funny... I can't remember your kimono post, but I'm sure it looks great! And I have to say I love that moto - I'm going to look it up now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fickle-shopping-and-the-return-of-the-kimono#post-974564 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 15:37:57 +0000 merwoman 974564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I do this fairly regularly, but maybe for a different reason? If I am not planning to wear right away, those tags stay on...and if the price drops, then for sure I will be returning, and buying again. &nbsp;This mostly happens with Zara since they will not do a price adjustment. GAP is much more consumer friendly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fickle-shopping-and-the-return-of-the-kimono#post-974552 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 15:24:57 +0000 Glory 974552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today I repurchased the zara kimono that I returned a few weeks ago. It got good reviews here&nbsp;but I just felt I could not pull off the look.&nbsp;<br />I can only confess it to you ladies - imagine the eye rolling from DH on more packages with the same item. HAHAHA</p> <p>I also purchased this moto to try. I love the boho feel on the front.</p> <p>Am I alone in this insanity of buying an item twice? I have to confess it isn't my first time doing this.<br />&nbsp; </p>
