I will try and wait. Perhaps I'll try your trick every couple of days to gauge inventory! Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-577237 Sun, 25 Mar 2012 03:48:58 +0000 Anonymous 577237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, I just pulled my little trick. They have 9 in small, which is probably your size! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-577232 Sun, 25 Mar 2012 03:43:52 +0000 Anonymous 577232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I think they might. There is a blouse I ordered in a size too small for me, that was sold out by the time I got my order. </p> <p>You can call and ask about stock availability. They might be able to tell you how much of each item is at hand. I also try to gauge inventory availability by adding a ridiculous number of the same item to my shopping cart, until I get a message saying they don't have enough inventory:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-577230 Sun, 25 Mar 2012 03:43:05 +0000 Aida 577230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could see you in both of those Mo, they have that Malina Romance to them </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-577221 Sun, 25 Mar 2012 03:36:44 +0000 Mo 577221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the input, Zap. Yes, blush is great for me. Khris is queen blush but I am a member of her court I just wish it wasn't $65. Do they run out of stock quickly, in your experience? I'd love to wait 2 weeks to pounce on this if I can. (the Fronds one is only in large, at second glance. boo) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-577216 Sun, 25 Mar 2012 03:33:01 +0000 Anonymous 577216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both. You look great in waist defining styles. Is the blush a good color on you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-577206 Sun, 25 Mar 2012 03:24:27 +0000 Mo 577206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What do we think of either of these styles for me? <a href="http://www.modcloth.com/shop/blouses/frond-memories-top" rel="nofollow">http://www.modcloth.com/shop/b.....mories-top</a> and <a href="http://www.modcloth.com/shop/blouses/rose-water-remedy-top" rel="nofollow">http://www.modcloth.com/shop/b.....remedy-top</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-577179 Sun, 25 Mar 2012 02:53:03 +0000 Aida 577179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for that info Zap, I'm going to check out those sources this coming week!

Thanks so much. I will take a look later tonight. I need to be mindful of my budget, so any under $50 appeal to me Glad you got your blouse situation all handled! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-577162 Sun, 25 Mar 2012 02:35:43 +0000 Anonymous 577162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had exactly the same hole and I've been working on it for a while now. I think I'm set. </p> <p>I have gotten very pretty blouses at all price points. Modcloth has some really cute ones at the $25 - $45 dollar range. I had bought a couple more expensive ones in silk, from WHBM, Banana Republic and Ebay, for maybe $60 - $100 plus the one from Equipment I'm still recovering from. Zara has cute ones too in the $35 - $60 range. The one from WHBM was bought on sale, it is 100% silk and cost me $45, check it out!</p> <p><a href="http://www.whitehouseblackmarket.com/store/browse/product.jsp?maxRec=23&#038;pageId=1&#038;productId=570039547&#038;viewAll=&#038;prd=Silk+Utility+Shirt&#038;subCatId=&#038;color=1057&#038;fromSearch=true&#038;inSeam=&#038;posId=8&#038;catId=cat4809277&#038;cat=&#038;onSale=true&#038;colorFamily=&#038;maxPg=2&#038;size=" rel="nofollow">http://www.whitehouseblackmark.....#038;size=</a></p> <p>BR is running a lot of promotions, they are having a 40% off one item, for all Wednesdays in April. </p> <p>I know you might not have access to the same stores or promotions. Please feel free to PM me if you need me to pick up something from a store. I have several coupons from BR that I can use on your behalf as well.</p> <p>ETA: I see the link does not work booo.... If you go to the main website, do a search for silk utility shirt. It comes in both white and red! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-577147 Sun, 25 Mar 2012 02:17:20 +0000 Mo 577147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Meredith, those are nice, but not quite me. Thanks, though. I will keep an eye out in the stores now that I have them on my radar. How silly that it never occurred to me until this morning. And Kari, I think you are right that I will have lots to choose from this year, so that is a good thing. I have a feeling I will be right alongside Aida in having a time of finding just the right ones. I might have to start with cheapies from F21 or the like, just to get a feel for what suits me before I go buying a bunch of tops and spending the budget. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-576896 Sat, 24 Mar 2012 20:38:54 +0000 Aida 576896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo, me too! I realized this several months ago and still haven't done much about it. I ordered a few this week, but honestly I have such a hard time finding blouses I like, and then an even harder time with good fit. Blouses are my wardrobe stressor </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-576876 Sat, 24 Mar 2012 20:20:57 +0000 Heather 576876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hugs, Malina!!! &lt;3 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-576874 Sat, 24 Mar 2012 20:19:47 +0000 Meredith1953 576874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo,<br /> I don't have any blouses OR shirts pretty much. It's a big gaping hole in my closet that desperately needs filling. You and I both have sloping narrow shoulders. Keep me in mind with any good finds. I am going to go check out Zap's posting on her three new blouses. What do you think of these two? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-576832 Sat, 24 Mar 2012 19:30:25 +0000 Kirti 576832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have blouses either! Only t shirts and NO button downs I really need to upgrade to tops/blouses! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-576825 Sat, 24 Mar 2012 19:14:17 +0000 Anonymous 576825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had the same wardrobe hole! After the last purge I realized that I had no pretty, feminine tops or blouses! Luckily there are LOTS available right now. I plan to acquire a handful to put into rotation this spring. I am not a ruffle girl but there are still lots of options around. I found a cute ink blue one at Sears that I got as a trial (to see if I liked that sort of thing) and it was great! A whole new world opened up for me! And my husband really liked my new more feminine look! Jeans, cami, pull on my new blouse and I'm ready to go! I'm finding that blouses are a nice way to inject some pattern into a mostly-solid wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-576819 Sat, 24 Mar 2012 19:00:45 +0000 christieanne 576819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My sympathies! I only have three "real" blouses and they are the boring button type as well.<br /> We better get busy on some blouse planning lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-576813 Sat, 24 Mar 2012 18:54:53 +0000 Kari 576813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you're in luck, as I've seen SO many pretty blouses in stores right now. (Did you see Zapotee's thread with her 3 new blouses from ModCloth&amp; Zara? I'm drooling!)</p> <p>I had the opposite realization recently when I peeked into my closet. I decided I really do not need any more blouses or tops right now, however much I might ogle them. I have enough fab choices in that category as is! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holes-what-holes#post-576811 Sat, 24 Mar 2012 18:50:34 +0000 Mo 576811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, just when I thought I was pretty much squared away and all the things on my list were just wants and not needs . . . I come to the realization that I don't really have any blouses! Shirts, sure, I have 50! But actual, real blouses - I have about 3, and they are all button downs, so not the most feminine silhouette.<br /> When I wanted to dress to the level of the BF a few weeks back, when he had on a nice button down and sport jacket, I came up empty. Ended up layering an embellished tee under a ribbed deep v-neck and used a sparkly scarf to amp up the dressiness factor. But I was faking it. I do have some woven, ladylike tanks from last year in FL, but neglected the cold weather side of the equation - oops. I'd like some real, grown up, woman's blouses this year to pair over jeans with sexy shoes for going out.<br /> Okay, just had to share my realization. Hit me over the head like a hammer this morning when I got my ink blue shirtdress/tunic. It's the closest thing to a blouse right now lol. </p>
