Congrats in the awesome purchases. I am loving the Okalas. Definitely on my most wanted list and I really love the plaid skinnies. But those are just my favs. Everything you chose is definitely fab. I can't wait to see all your WIW posts. Now you get to play with all your new pieces. That's always my favorite part (well, after the thrill of the deal of course!) Enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/online-order-success#post-1115896 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 01:53:49 +0000 Parsley 1115896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, YAY, Suz!<br />I'm so happy that your orders worked out so well!<br />I can't wait to see everything.</p> <p>About the laces on the boots:<br />I've been tying them in a bow and then tucking the bow down into the back of the boots so it doesn't show. Sometimes it doesn't stay well, though, so I'd like to find a way to secure the laces better. Honestly, I don't really need to readjust them since there's a zipper, so I've though about securing them on the inside with my hot glue gun, or something like that.</p> <p>I'd welcome any solutions you might come up with.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/online-order-success#post-1115843 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 01:03:37 +0000 Angie 1115843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't wait to hear about the wedding, and am already missing your forum&nbsp;scarcity.&nbsp;</p> <p>I am celebrating your happy purchases with a huge smile and jig. Well done. You might enjoy shopping after all. (((hugs)))</p> <p>We'll help you out with the Gabe as soon as you are ready. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/online-order-success#post-1115840 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 00:57:55 +0000 Windchime 1115840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're on a roll, Suz-- the wedding and now the successful order! It's fun to read your excitement about both. I bet some of the items in your order can play nicely with each other. </p> <p>Will look forward to wedding details, when you have time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/online-order-success#post-1115832 Tue, 17 Dec 2013 00:49:32 +0000 Sveta 1115832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woo-hoo! This is indeed magic! Online orders are tricky especially when you have to pick them up over the border!<br />I am so excited for you and hope that it was just a stray wrinkle from the packing on Gabe jacket which misled Mr Suz. :-)<br />I am waiting for the pictures impatiently... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/online-order-success#post-1115782 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 23:59:07 +0000 Suz 1115782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow...Tanya, I am speechless! That is amazing. Clearly we have very, very similar taste! (<b>Great</b> taste, that is, tee hee!)</p> <p>Claire is completely correct. I had been stalking almost all of this stuff for some time and was very very lucky with some super sales (for instance, the Vince tees were lower priced than the current markdown, the CoH were $100 off, and the Okalas were also on substantial markdown.) But they are all items I would have tried at full price and paid full price for....although I could not have had all of them at once at full price. It does help that I <b>ALSO</b> sent back a huge order to Nordstrom's today. So actually, at the end of all this, they will still owe me a little bit. ;)&nbsp;</p> <p>I figured I could always pop it straight back in the mail if it didn't work. The only items I'm not 100% convinced about are those Vince tees...seems an awful lot of money to spend on a modal top. But on the other hand, I've had a similar top &nbsp;in a turtleneck version for about 3 seasons and have worn it non stop and it still looks good. So...crossing fingers the long term CPW is good on these.&nbsp;</p> <p>Tanya, I hope the boots work out for you. The fit is really good and so adjustable and the leather is nice on them -- very soft. My only issue is how to do the laces so they're not tied in a knot or bow in the back. I don't mind the lace up look on the back but do not like dangling ends.&nbsp;</p> <p>The Okalas would be brilliant for you and on you. Definitely hold out for a sale price (as I did). But the lucky thing is that these are clearly a hugely popular style for Sam and I'll bet more colours will appear in the spring on these.&nbsp;</p> <p>I got the CoH jeans about a month ago -- I think it was before the mid-season sale, weirdly enough. And maybe they only had certain sizes. I can't remember. I ordered the Gabe jacket at the same time and there was a sale plus an extra 20% off of Theory the day I ordered it. So while it wasn't cheap, it was considerably discounted.&nbsp;</p> <p>The Mias were a super lucky break. I really wanted them but they were only in a size up and Angie told me not to bother with that. It turned out she was completely correct. The 4 would have been way too big.&nbsp;</p> <p>I haven't sent anything back yet. The only possible return, really, is the Gabe jacket. But more on that later.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for sharing my excitement, all! It's amazing when an online order works out so well! Una had this experience recently. I guess I had it coming to me after so many returns earlier in the autumn.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/online-order-success#post-1115738 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 22:48:35 +0000 Anonymous 1115738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so glad the wedding went well! Ours was lovely too.</p> <p>Wow, this is one super duper haul! I have a feeling you have diligently been stalking this stuff for a while, waiting to pounce. It also sounds like you did a lot of research before pulling the trigger. Kudos! And I'm so happy you'll have the Okalas for the Spring. I just knew you would love them if they fit! Woot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/online-order-success#post-1115732 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 22:43:15 +0000 Anonymous 1115732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super pieces and so glad the wedding went well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/online-order-success#post-1115730 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 22:40:57 +0000 Caro in Oz 1115730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow what a great result, I&nbsp;can't wait for the pics. I'm sure you won't regret the Okalas. Glad the wedding went well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/online-order-success#post-1115729 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 22:40:05 +0000 Tanya 1115729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG Suz, I am speechless, and will explain in a minute why. But I want to say first that I am glad the wedding went well, I can't wait to see some pictures, especially the outfits.&nbsp; And I am so happy all these fab items work well for you. Can't wait to see them on you and how you style them.</p> <p>Onto the spooky part:<br />1. I have ordered the very same boots earlier this morning, for reasons similar to yours: skinny calves, book-ending etc.<br />2. I have Okalas in various online shopping carts. I am stalking them, as I want them badly, but do not want to pay the full price as I will not wear them so much with my lifestyle - they would not work for work.<br />3. I have had the same COH skinnies in my Shopbop cart for a bit, also stalking them. Did not know Nordie's had them discounted, very sad I missed on that.<br />4. I have been also wanting those&nbsp; Mia's, and had bad luck.&nbsp; I have been stalking them too, and noticed them on sale in that small size, which is my size. I was just about to pull the trigger but they were gone super fast, within a day or so Super sad, hope I can still find them somehow, tough not sure how.<br />5. I have been admiring those tees too, but even on sale they are too pricey for me.<br />6. I already own the older version of Gabe B jacket in black.&nbsp; Have been in love with Lanai with it being prominently featured here, and still not decided if I should give it a try or not.<br />7. I am afraid to ask you if you sent something back for sure, as it is probably also something I have been thinking about or even already bought.</p> <p>So, I know we are both here on YLF, and we have very similar body types and coloring, but these are just so many coincidences that I do not know what to say... (** Twilight zone music in the background**) This surely demonstrates the power of YLF.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/online-order-success#post-1115727 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 22:31:47 +0000 Lisa 1115727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great picks here.&nbsp; I can't wait to see them in action.&nbsp; Nothing is better than when an order works out and you don't have to do lots of returning.&nbsp; :)&nbsp; I am jealous of your plaid trousers!&nbsp; I always look at them, but have yet to find a pair that fit properly.&nbsp; So far, they always have wavy lines with my pear shape.&nbsp; But eventually I'll find a proper pair.&nbsp; Until I look forward to seeing how you sport them, I think plaids are such a fun print. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/online-order-success#post-1115725 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 22:21:21 +0000 Eliza 1115725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful pieces, Suz.
