Don't beat yourself up over it or you won't enjoy wearing it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-caved-#post-50602 Wed, 18 Feb 2009 17:23:35 +0000 Tanya 50602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hannah, I completely agree with Tarzy - you deserve a treat. The dress is gorgeous and I am sure you will get plenty of wear out of it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-caved-#post-50599 Wed, 18 Feb 2009 17:10:00 +0000 tarzy 50599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hanna - as long as you have the money, are not going into hock or will starve for the next month, you deserve to treat yourself. This is something you have been stalking for a while. You've tried it on, you love it, you can afford it. It is not a $900 pair of shoes you bought on a whim. </p> <p>Yes, once in a while we all buy something that's not on "the list." Or we pay too much. But so what? I know times are hard and we are all tightening our belts and dealing with it. But we still have to enjoy life a little! </p> <p>I always keep the tags on a new purchase for a few days, in case I have a change of heart. (Sometimes the stalking is really the fun part, and when I actually have the item, I'm all "Eh.") </p> <p>Treat yourself. You've had a rough time lately. Live a little! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-caved-#post-50596 Wed, 18 Feb 2009 16:38:43 +0000 NCyogini 50596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE that dress. The moose makes me smile. I really do think you got a deal for what you paid- and you will get compliments on that dress every time you wear it. Hurrah! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-caved-#post-50592 Wed, 18 Feb 2009 16:11:16 +0000 Patience 50592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You clearly love it so much that I know it's money well spent. Enjoy it! I love it too and will enjoy it on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-caved-#post-50583 Wed, 18 Feb 2009 15:44:21 +0000 Maya 50583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also saw and loved that dress but I couldn't wear it anyway because of the turtleneck. I think it's gorgeous and money well spent! Don't expect me to talk you out of it :p </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-caved-#post-50582 Wed, 18 Feb 2009 15:39:02 +0000 hanna 50582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>so for months now, i've been stalking the same dress on the anthropologie web site. i've been willing the price to drop. i've been looking for sort-of-the-same-but-cheaper knockoff versions at all my usual bargain-hunting haunts. i've been willing my obsession to go away. BUT NO. IT WAS NOT TO BE. </p> <p>this dress has been on the sale page for weeks, but was still at a price i'd normally balk at paying. i've put it in my cart countless times, then clicked 'x' to close the window. but this morning... i did it. I BOUGHT IT.</p> <p><a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?_dyncharset=ISO-8859-1&#038;_dynSessConf=143798475913916077&#038;id=830108&#038;parentid=SALE_CLOTHES_DRESS&#038;pushId=SALE_CLOTHES_DRESS&#038;popId=SALE_CLOTHES_DRESS&#038;sortProperties=%2BmarketingPriority%2C-saleDate&#038;navCount=76&#038;navAction=jump&#038;fromCategoryPage=true&#038;selectedProductSize=&#038;selectedProductSize1=&#038;color=neu&#038;colorName=NEUTRAL" rel="nofollow">http://www.anthropologie.com/a.....me=NEUTRAL</a></p> <p>(i've actually tried it on and loved it in person as well, don't worry)</p> <p>now, my resolution to watch my shopping has gone down pretty well, and it's been a long time since i've done any shopping outside of thrift stores, so i've got a pretty healthy bank balance. i figure this is a treat to myself for months of self-denial and general sensible-ness - but it still feels strange to spend so much on myself! </p> <p>i must be going crazy </p>
