It really does make a difference if 1) you were looking for a specific item, rather than shopping to shop and 2) it's fantastic quality for a nice price. I must remember this. Congrats on your trench! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-me-feel-better-anyone-else-succomb-to-a-presidents-day-sale#post-301907 Tue, 22 Feb 2011 06:13:03 +0000 danza.armonia 301907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I succumbed in a controlled way. . .I've been looking for a trench for a while and my warm down coat is looking quite worn. I wandered into macys and found a wool tahari trench and 1/3 original price in exactly my size. . .couldn't pass up warm and trench in the same coat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-me-feel-better-anyone-else-succomb-to-a-presidents-day-sale#post-301733 Tue, 22 Feb 2011 00:46:52 +0000 Maya 301733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, it will be interesting to see how someone who can scarcely manage 2" heels will manage these :p</p> <p>I splurged on boots this winter and don't regret it one bit. They will be my friends for many seasons to come. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-me-feel-better-anyone-else-succomb-to-a-presidents-day-sale#post-301727 Tue, 22 Feb 2011 00:42:39 +0000 rae 301727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, those sandals are a steal at $39. I hope they work for you, because they are too cute -- I would totally wear something like that if I could do high heels in my casual life. </p> <p>Coco, $300 is definitely expensive in my book as well. Way out of my league. And the brand claims that their shoes look and feel like they should be twice the price... we'll see about that one! </p> <p>Queen Mum, the day is not over yet, and the internet does not close! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-me-feel-better-anyone-else-succomb-to-a-presidents-day-sale#post-301695 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 23:36:04 +0000 Queen Mum 301695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WHAT!?!?!?!<br /> there were sales today!?!?!?! How did I not get notified of this piece of information. The only shopping I did today was the grocery store. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-me-feel-better-anyone-else-succomb-to-a-presidents-day-sale#post-301694 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 23:33:36 +0000 CocoLion 301694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job! I love buying expensive things which are reduced. These boots, at an SRP of $300, qualify as expensive in my book. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-me-feel-better-anyone-else-succomb-to-a-presidents-day-sale#post-301691 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 23:28:14 +0000 Maya 301691@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't, mostly as a function of not finding anything I liked.</p> <p>I did, however, order some ridiculous sandals on ebay. Ridiculous because I never ever buy shoes like this, as they will never ever work for me...but they are getting rave reviews, even from people who can't or don't normally wear heels, and I know Indigo works well for me, so hopefully they can work on days where I'm not walking as much. </p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/product/7597031/color/72?zlfid=111" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/product/.....?zlfid=111</a></p> <p>And they were only $39, and the seller accepts returns, so...WTH. </p> <p>Every girl is entitled to one pair of crazy shoes in her closet, and these are mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-me-feel-better-anyone-else-succomb-to-a-presidents-day-sale#post-301627 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 22:21:46 +0000 rae 301627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kate, I'm certainly glad to hear how positive you look at the situation -- you did score some great stuff recently! Hopefully the boots will work out, and my euphoria will override the sticker shock. </p> <p>Cilleena, this is exactly what I told myself. I guess I never expected to find so many holes, what with all the clothes I have! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-me-feel-better-anyone-else-succomb-to-a-presidents-day-sale#post-301599 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 21:50:02 +0000 Cilleena 301599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I definitely succumbed, Rae! I'm not done yet either! hehe! I'm filling wardrobe holes...at least that's what I'm telling myself. They are things that I "need" and everything I'm buying is on sale! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-me-feel-better-anyone-else-succomb-to-a-presidents-day-sale#post-301586 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 21:17:41 +0000 Kate 301586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did, but I feel more like I dominated than succumbed :D</p> <p>Just think about what a great deal you got, and it becomes you taking advantage of the sale rather than the sale taking advantage of you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/make-me-feel-better-anyone-else-succomb-to-a-presidents-day-sale#post-301583 Mon, 21 Feb 2011 21:15:05 +0000 rae 301583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wasn't mentally ready to make another big cold-weather purchase after buying my black boots this winter, but I needed to replace my brown ones, and these were 1/3 the original price... had to bite, just in case they work out.<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Biviel-Womens-BV2721-Knee-High-T-Moro/dp/B003GALXKM/ref=lh_ni_t_" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Biviel-W.....f=lh_ni_t_</a></p> <p> I'm not breaking the bank by any means, and I do a fairly good job of reselling some things when I'm tired of them, but I still feel a little shop-happy lately. Any commiseration is welcome. </p>
