(: </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147511 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 18:33:55 +0000 Maya 147511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is so weird Marianna! If you're going to sell fakes, why not sell fake Marc Jacobs or fake DVF? Why fake J CREW?! How silly. </p> <p>You probably looked adorable Boof! I think Laura Ashley had its place in the 90's. I'm more than over it in 2010 though!</p> <p>Mac, I'm 5'2 and 26 years old and even I have had it with dress lengths. I don't mind a short dress but where is the VARIETY? I can't wear minis to work...and if they are minis on my short self, they are micros or perhaps tunics on people of normal height or taller. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147449 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 15:10:03 +0000 marianna 147449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Be careful when buying J Crew on eBay though -- there are MANY fakes out there. I was looking for a particular J Crew necklace and found a great deal on eBay. It looked totally legit, with J Crew tags and all that. Upon reading the seller's feedback, there were many complaints about the seller selling fake J Crew. So just be careful and do your research! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147432 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 14:15:20 +0000 Boof 147432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Kristine! I hadn't thought about looking on ebay. Funny that they say it's a medium, but if you scroll down or look at the tag it's a size 2. I'll be looking out for a deal. :o) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147429 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 13:28:55 +0000 Kristine 147429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Boof, keep your eye on Ebay. I don't know your size, but here it is Medium. Some sellers even take returns, although this one doesn't.</p> <p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/JCREW-2010-WATERCOLOR-GARDEN-SHELL-MEDIUM-/130385479571?cmd=ViewItem&#038;pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&#038;hash=item1e5b948793" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/JCREW-2010.....1e5b948793</a> </p> <p>One thing? Probably a dressy short sleeve blouse. I think my wardrobe's in decent shape for 3 out of 4 seasons, but I think I only have one short sleeve shirt that would be presentable enough for work. I'd also like white or khaki pants! Oh and a dress! Here we go... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147426 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 13:11:12 +0000 Boof 147426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, you are cracking me up! I could probably get you to vomit by posting college pictures of me in my Laura Ashley dress, patent flats with bows on them, and my hair pulled back with a big bow. I still have a soft spot for Laura Ashley prints...but I would no longer wear them on my 40-year-old body. :o)</p> <p>Mac, I hear you on the dress length. I'm only 5'5," and I struggle with finding dresses that aren't too short. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147382 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 04:57:11 +0000 Mac 147382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd like a summer day dress that is actually long enough on me; what's with all the super-short dresses this season that are positively obscenely short on a tall 40 year-old? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147380 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 04:48:14 +0000 anne 147380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I m in a different position since I have just finished summer here but the one thing already on my list for next summer if a lightweight patterned A-line skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147360 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 03:48:28 +0000 Debbie 147360@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want a red or turquoise top. I discovered during my closet editing today I have two balck and white skirts that need tops. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147352 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 03:31:56 +0000 Maya 147352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think rather than buying one more thing, I'd like to wish mushroom tones, pale hues, and ditsy florals out of existence for the rest of the season. I was so frustrated-bordering-on-anger today while shopping because every store is just COVERED in them. Mango was full of them. H&amp;M is still full of them. I am sick, sick, sick to death of it. If I see one more store interior peppered with bland colors and even blander floral prints, I am going to vomit. It's like shopping in a Laura Ashley showroom.</p> <p>Right now I just want real color back (not fake colors like tan and beige). I want to see more geometry again. If I had to buy one more thing, it would be a red-on-white or red-on-black polkadot dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147345 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 03:20:00 +0000 Jenava 147345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that top! Prints are more likely to go on sale than solids, if it's any consolation...(-:</p> <p>I need to do a huge closet purge before I can say for sure what I want for summer. I have a hunch it's going to be in the woven blouse category... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147336 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 02:51:33 +0000 marianna 147336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Only one item? But I want approximately 10 more items! I'll also take a bigger clothing budget -- nice one, Michelle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147329 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 02:41:11 +0000 agrace 147329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is becoming more of a point of frustration than a fun thing for me at the moment but it would probably be 'the' pair of nude wedge sandals to wear to death all summer. </p> <p>Boof - agreed, that must be some great cotton! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147326 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 02:30:08 +0000 Michelle 147326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What I really want is a bigger clothing budget. My list of summer wardrobe wants is getting a little out of control. If forced to chose, though, I'd have to either go for white jeans (the ones I have are not as good as I once thought due to side-entry pockets) or a polka dot top/dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147301 Sat, 24 Apr 2010 01:49:22 +0000 Angie 147301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Julie. I'll take one of those frocks too, please. And That's all I want for Summer - the odd additional frock. And some slouchy pants. </p> <p>Pretty top, Meredith. Hope it goes on sale soon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147202 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 20:43:07 +0000 rae 147202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Huh. In researching my response to this post, I discovered that some shoes I've been eying are on sale... maybe I'll get them after all. </p> <p><a href="http://www.cowardshoe.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=30238&#038;parentCategoryId=1062&#038;categoryId=1300&#038;amp" rel="nofollow">http://www.cowardshoe.com/cata.....0&#038;amp</a>; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147182 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 20:28:29 +0000 cciele 147182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous top, Boof! But phew, that's some fancy fabric.</p> <p>I'm in a pretty good place for the summer, but I keep looking for the elusive perfect shirtdress. And now a sleeveless jean vest (like Jean's) is on the list! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147176 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 20:18:07 +0000 Boof 147176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Queenie, you are so right. I say that, and then I eat my words. There is always "just one more." </p> <p>Rosie I do get J Crew emails, so I'm hoping it will go on sale! I'll be watching it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147174 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 20:02:22 +0000 Queen Mum 147174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>those are the words that get me into trouble!

I'm sure it will go on sale. Do you get emails from J Crew with their sales?</p> <p>I haven't really purchased anything for summer. I definitely need to evaluate what I own first. Like Joy, I really want a pair of white jeans. Have for years. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147170 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 19:42:21 +0000 Boof 147170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, Julie! I'm swooning over those dresses, too! Beautiful! Can't wait to see pictures of yours!</p> <p>Joy, I just added white jeans this spring, and I love mine! You will find your perfect white jeans.</p> <p>Khris, you are too busy building wardrobe options for your ever-shrinking body. Of course you couldn't pick just one. :o)</p> <p>After what I purchased last year, I'm in a pretty good place. I've added a few new items, but there isn't much that I *need.* A pretty printed summer top is at the top of my list. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147158 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 18:32:02 +0000 RoseandJoan 147158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The top is beautiful Boof, if only I had the money I would buy.....one of these Prada print dresses, I seriously, seriously want one NOW<br /> <a href="http://www.graziadaily.co.uk/fashion/archive/2010/04/22/the-prada-print-collection-is-under--500.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.graziadaily.co.uk/f.....r--500.htm</a><br /> (pssst..I have had a similar one made but have yet to take piccies) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147156 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 18:21:47 +0000 Anonymous 147156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mine will probably be a new pair of white jeans. I'd love the ones in the YLF store (probably Paige) but am holding out for a pair of straight legs with a medium rise if they can be found. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147149 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 17:45:44 +0000 chewyspaghetti 147149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no- I couldn't pick just one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/if-i-could-buy-just-one-more-thing-for-summer#post-147147 Fri, 23 Apr 2010 17:40:25 +0000 Boof 147147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It would be this top!
