I really like it but it’s slightly too small for my needs. And that scarf is so pretty! Congrats!

Rose scent always reminds me of my grandmother, who always wore it. Memorable. The back pack sounds like a brilliant choice with the baby. I would be afraid of buying any pants now not knowing what your body will settle into post pregnancy. Remember that hips widen and will probably stay wider than before. It's the bones, so diet and exercise will not help. Feet can widen too. I know the feeling of wanting so much to get into normal clothes, but enjoy the moment.

It will just get better and better with time.

I agree that when I have my heart set on something, substituting it with a cheaper version doesn't often work out well.

I avoided even looking at jeans because I think I’m well stocked (and trying on jeans is usually demoralizing for me), but I really like that hem treatment. I’m thinking of a DIY with one of my old pairs! I also love that backpack, and the red boots are amazing! Congrats on your impending arrival!

So beautiful.  Also the scarf. I'd get it myself if only I didn't already have a zillion scarves. I think that's the actual number I own, so I've called a halt to scarf buying.  How wonderful that you were able to get that fragrance, it was absolutely a must!  Thistle on "My Purchases" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-purchases#post-1936545 Fri, 13 Jul 2018 17:05:35 +0000 Thistle 1936545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Beautiful choices all. I love the story behind the fragrance. What a lovely treat for yourself!  Jenava on "My Purchases" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-purchases#post-1936537 Fri, 13 Jul 2018 16:47:00 +0000 Jenava 1936537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I am hopeful about what I've ordered; mostly to pick up downtown and in Bellevue. I think only the cardigan and the sneakers had to be shipped... I am 7 months pregnant, so the jeans & pants (which I ordered 2 sizes in) will have to be stored until I can properly fit them on. I really liked the style and need casual pants for work. Jeans - I liked this style - it's color is light and the hems unique. Red Booties - I've been really wanting some proper red shoes. The little heel on these may not be so practical but I adore this style. I have a pair of red booties from Aquatalia with a higher heel that get some love, so I suppose these are a bit of a duplicate. If they aren't a 10 for comfort they'll go back. Green Cardigan - the only sweaters/third pieces I need are cardigans. I'm excited to use this color as a faux neutral with pastels and brights. It should also be close enough to my culottes that I can wear them as a column of color. Vince sneakers - I could use some fancy sneakers for work. Fell in love with the color and style of these. Nord Sig pants - Just retired an old pair of Vince olive chinos. So these are a replacement for those if they work out. Black rag & bone backpack - I bought a cheap version of this bag last sale and hated it. It was too big, and the faux leather was not pleasant. Lesson learned, no bag is better for me than a disappointing substitute. Le Labos fragrance - The fairmont hotel in San Fran has Rose 31 scented shampoo. We stayed there in 2013 and I saved the empty bottle so that I could smell the scent (I think I tossed it last year). When I saw it on sale it was a must-have item for me. ETA - Max Mara Black and Cream Scarf - I forgot about this lovely scarf!  It was an impulse buy, but I really do wear the three scarves I have a lot.  I'm thinking a big scarf like this will also be nursing friendly. There were an awful lot of tempting dresses (I'm looking at you, Lewit) and dressy trousers, and sweaters, and coats. But I don't need any of those things with maternity leave looming and a much more casual work environment than I've ever had before. I selected the things I felt I would get good use out of and then I was at the end of my budget. I suspect not all of these will be keepers, either. I don't have any of these items in hand yet. I will need to make a trip to the downtown store and to the Bellevue store to pick things up. I'll post again once I have my items (and, as usual, the weather will be super-warm here while I try on my new Fall stuff!)
