Thanks to your posting your Finds I found out that the Pick Up Sticks tee I've always admired on Sveta is still available at Lord &amp; Taylor, and on sale to boot!&nbsp; I ordered XS, I hope it fits nicely. I will report back. Thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1282336 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 14:50:19 +0000 Angie 1282336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hah.

I'm so happy to see that everything worked out so well. I especially love the Pleione top (tempted to try it myself now) and that black dress, which is fantastic on you! But it all looks great, and I'm so pleased. Glad I could help! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1282191 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 12:10:39 +0000 April 1282191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your story and subject line made me laugh. &nbsp;</p> <p>And definitely seconding your thoughts on buying black and white online -- at least they're always reasonably close to how they looked on the monitor. &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1282086 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 07:00:03 +0000 Neel 1282086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tee hee! I love YLF lemming stories And what a crazy perfect haul! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1282079 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 06:29:23 +0000 Ornella 1282079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I loved the story. I love your haul even better. This looks like such a great capsule. </p> <p>Your story reminded me of the joys of targeted shopping for the things we contemplate about for a long time. As fun as random purchases and great accidental finds&nbsp;are, I'm wondering how such experiences&nbsp;compare to&nbsp;having a load of HITS like this?</p> <p>Wear an enjoy and let us enjoy them with you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281986 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 04:01:50 +0000 Mo 1281986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:) &nbsp;<br />I can't seem to say no to June either, for what it's worth </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281971 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 03:46:06 +0000 Elizabeth P 1281971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Firecracker, the funny thing is is that I've always been one of those people that hates jean shopping because I find it so hard to get a good fit. I knew Janet and I were the same size, and both enjoyed a couple of other pairs (albeit very different), and just had a gut feeling these would work. Lucky!</p> <p>Peri yes it does come in different colours. You'll have to hunt for those, a<br /> L&amp;T only has black. Sorry! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281926 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 03:13:58 +0000 Peri 1281926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Elizabeth. I thought it came in other colors though...not sure I can go for another black dress. I have exactly two dresses and they are both black! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281903 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:54:55 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1281903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A charming story, and you look smashing in all of it. Yes, all of it! Wow, I can't believe you can get a fit like those jeans by long distance. I am such a wimp when it comes to ordering fitted things like that. You did amazingly well, with help from your YLF friends! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281899 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:50:20 +0000 Suz 1281899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG!!! I just found this now! And now I fully understand your joke about white, black, and navy in our PM thread about my trip!!&nbsp;</p> <p>What a fabulous, funny, story and what a brilliant haul! I especially love those Athleta capris and the dress on you. Not to mention the Sveta sweater!&nbsp;Stunning! And just look at those Paige jeans. A great score, and so sweet of Janet.&nbsp;</p> <p>Also, as someone who just went on a totally unanticipated and largely lemming-esque online shopping spree, I can hardly make a peep if you just say yes to June!!&nbsp;</p> <p>And here I thought I was being so restrained. A whole week in Toronto and "all" I bought was a Danier tote on sale. Now I've ordered up a dress, shoes, a vest, six tops, three sweaters, and a pair of pants. YIKES!!!!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281896 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:45:33 +0000 Elizabeth P 1281896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Peri, it's the drape front shift dress. And right now, you're best bet is lord and Taylor. Just use the "find" that I put up. It's on sale, and has an extra 25% off that (to US addresses, I ended up very pleasantly surprised). I ended up getting it for $78! </p> <p>Rest of you - Thanks for the feedback. So much fun to like everything in a package! </p> <p>And yes Shannon I agree the shoes are wrong. I was excited to try the jeans etc on, and had about 5 min while pasta was cooking, then had to run to soccer. So just grabbed the closest pair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281867 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:21:53 +0000 abc 1281867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun storytelling. </p> <p>Great haul but that EF dress is amazing on you. </p> <p>Love the plieone top too.</p> <p>Well done and I sympathize with the feeling of not being able to get what you want living in a country that's not the USA. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281854 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:16:05 +0000 Peri 1281854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What do they call that EF dress? I feel the lemming colony is begging me to join! I'm wanting it more every time I see Shannon in it, and now you look fantastic. I want it! </p> <p>Where do I get it? Shannon said eBay? What is the search name for the dress? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281844 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:09:59 +0000 Sveta 1281844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>He-he, lemming is our second name, no?<br />However your story is nothing of the lemming kind but unique and original - jus like you!<br />I am happy that we are a shirt twins now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281831 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 02:04:07 +0000 Diana 1281831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! &nbsp;This is an awesome story. &nbsp;And awesome haul too. &nbsp;Hooray for Janet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281811 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 01:55:52 +0000 Beth Ann 1281811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What wonderful items, and an even better story!&nbsp; Sometimes we've got to be creative to build a great wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281785 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 01:41:10 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1281785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoo hoo!!! What do I think? I think this is fab!</p> <p>Of course I went straight to the dress and Ollie's. Fabulous Elizabeth! Do you love it? I think it's a magical dress myself.</p> <p>The rest is fantastic too. I do think the jeans may be a smidge short with those sandals though. Love the fit.</p> <p>Your story was so cute and you are most welcome for the enabling </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/its-christmas-in-lemmingville#post-1281779 Thu, 19 Jun 2014 01:35:55 +0000 Jaime 1281779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your story made me smile.
