So sorry to hear it was a purchasus abortus. I HATE those! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/monday-mail-call#post-455767 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 21:34:20 +0000 goldenpig 455767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am really excited about this--I found this Lafayette leather jacket/blazer at Nordstrom Rack. It was on sale at NAS but I bought a bunch of other stuff at that time so I never tried it on. I've been looking for a leather jacket, moto or otherwise, and kept thinking about that one because it is such a lovely caramel color (it's called ochre but it looks like a cognac or orange-brown). I like camel and brown, but I'm thinking I need something warmer for my skin tone. And also, they styled it with my favorite Lafayette 148 leather and tweed skirt! So it would be perfect!</p> <p>Anyways, saw it was on sale at Rack online but only in size 8 &amp; 14 and I think I need 4 or 6. So I called around and found the right sizes at one of the Rack stores and they're going to do a "charge and send" so hopefully I will get it sometime this week! I have high hopes for this one!<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/lafayette-148-new-york-lambskin-leather-jacket/3186042?origin=category&#038;resultback=3678" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/la.....tback=3678</a></p> <p>ETA: Rae, so sorry about that Ebay jacket. How awful! I hope you get your money back ASAP! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/monday-mail-call#post-455765 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 21:30:33 +0000 qfbrenda 455765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have anything on the way, but I just received my black Born boots that work with skirts last week. I only have one more pair of boots I plan to buy and then I'm set for winter, I think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/monday-mail-call#post-455752 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 21:09:31 +0000 catgirl 455752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your trench never arrived, Rae?!

The post office is "investigating" the shipment but, since there was no tracking on the package, I don't have high hopes. Luckily, Paypal buyer protection is very nice. </p> <p>IK, it's a Muubaa leather trench that never arrived... getting the AllSaints jacket as my alternative dressy-casual topper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/monday-mail-call#post-455685 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 19:45:19 +0000 Kate 455685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hand towels, headphones (a bday present for my guy) and this top from the loft!</p> <p><a href="http://www.loft.com/loft/product/product%3A270057/LOFT-Bejeweled/Ruffle-V-Neck-Shell/270057?colorExplode=false&#038;skuId=10105320&#038;catid=catl000011&#038;productPageType=fullPriceProducts&#038;defaultColor=9565" rel="nofollow">http://www.loft.com/loft/produ.....Color=9565</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/monday-mail-call#post-455658 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 19:22:11 +0000 ironkurtin 455658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, your leather Allsaints never arrived?!

They tried to deliver the jacket on Friday, and of course it was during the one-hour window when nobody was home. Sigh. Ah well, at least I will get it eventually! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/monday-mail-call#post-455625 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 18:45:32 +0000 teri 455625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>only bills and junk mail I'm afraid..... lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/monday-mail-call#post-455623 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 18:44:08 +0000 Vani 455623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm expecting the popular <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Long-Cool-Big-Skull-Cotton-Womens-Black-Scarf-Shawl-HOT-/220711568461?_trksid=p5197.m7&amp;_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26itu%3DUCI%26otn%3D1%26po%3DLVI%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D3869927746448371338">ebay skull scarf</a> and a <a href="http://us.asos.com/ASOS%20Modern%20Armour%20Cuff%20Bracelet/wyj7l/?iid=1607026&amp;MID=35719&amp;affid=2135&amp;siteID=J84DHJLQkR4-yOIdHgwVmdpwhgVA4IPlSQ&amp;mporgp=L2NvdW50cnlpZC8yL0FTT1MvQVNPUy1Nb2Rlcm4tQXJtb3VyLUN1ZmYtQnJhY2VsZXQvUHJvZC8.">statement gold cuff</a> from ASOS.

The black wool flounce is being replaced by the gray seamed jersey skirt, and my white linen a-line is being replaced by a denim FCUK that I eyed months ago but just finally pulled the trigger on. Both are more casual and therefore, much more likely to actually be worn! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/monday-mail-call#post-455512 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 16:26:31 +0000 Vicki 455512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Doc Martens coming today or tomorrow, in two sizes, and I hope one of them works out! MaryK: This is a WONDERFUL photo and, YES, you deserve major points for it! Amy: I picked up the Heavy Metal pumps yesterday (in-store) and they are very comfortable! I did have to put something in the heel to accommodate my narrow ankles; I also tightened the strap one notch and they feel great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/monday-mail-call#post-455508 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 16:19:32 +0000 MsMary 455508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am still Shopping My Closet, so no fashion items are expected.</p> <p>BUT... my Marine is sending a package containing refrigerator magnets (for the collection) from Pensacola Naval Air Station, from which he recently departed, including one commemorating the Blue Angels precision flying team!

Bought one<br /> and have been very happy that I don't have to think about finding a replacement.<br /> So I thought I would be smart and see if there were any more to buy up of this<br /> long discontinued product. Found a seller with 3 new ones for sale. Arrived this<br /> morning - one sealed and two not sealed with some of the metallic lettering rubbed<br /> off. I wrote the seller and complained. Very disappointed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/monday-mail-call#post-455452 Mon, 31 Oct 2011 14:48:29 +0000 Amy 455452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ordered the Aerolsoles Heavy Metal Animal Print Pumps Angie featured recently.
