The longer vest, not so much. And now that Angie has explained, makes sense to me as to why. I've been here only 2 months and you've lost quite a bit in that time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-purchases-for-fall#post-71742 Thu, 11 Jun 2009 15:58:38 +0000 Sarah 71742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*squee* thanks!<br /> I was surprised that I liked the longer jacket on me, too. I like the vest too, but I definitely don't want a weak shoulder line. I'll play around with it for a few more days.<br /> Summer has never been my favorite season. I always get just enough to get by, but spend more on fall/winter apparel. Which makes no sense, considering where I live. :D<br /> And thanks for the kind comment, Angie. I've worked so hard in the past year and a half. For the last few months I was getting so discouraged with my lack of progress (probably because I wasn't working as hard?). But the last month, I have kicked things into high gear again and am just now starting to see the changes again. Yay!<br /> I'm normally not a bargain hunter, but it seems to make sense right now. I'm spending more on shoes and accessories since they'll always fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-purchases-for-fall#post-71738 Thu, 11 Jun 2009 15:52:04 +0000 Angie 71738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First of all, Sarah. MY GOODNESS. You have lost SO MUCH weight. Your silhouette is straightening out. Amazing! </p> <p>Okay Ms. bargain hunter of the decade, I like both jacket lengths on you. I hands down prefer the long sleeved long jacket to the long waistcoat. I find the silhouette at that length WITH sleeves a lot more flattering because it strengthens your shoulder line which balances out the bottom part of your body. Hope that makes sense.</p> <p>I too am finished with Summer and getting Autumn looks into shape. Such fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-purchases-for-fall#post-71640 Thu, 11 Jun 2009 04:21:59 +0000 cciele 71640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, great deals! I think the longer-length jacket and vests look good on you. Love the Frye oxfords too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-purchases-for-fall#post-71613 Thu, 11 Jun 2009 01:45:27 +0000 Laura 71613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, pretty! And a good deal, too.</p> <p>I'm keeping an eye on EBay for a pair of harness boots. My friend let me test drive her boots this weekend, so I figured out my size. I can't believe how heavy those boots are! I do like their Boho vibe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-purchases-for-fall#post-71609 Thu, 11 Jun 2009 01:25:39 +0000 Sarah 71609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't Laura, but I ordered these instead:<br /> <a href="http://www.zappos.com/n/p/p/7280549/c/816.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/n/p/p/7280549/c/816.html</a><br /> They were less than half of that ^. :D<br /> I had such a to-do with knee boots last fall. I think this year I want to take my time and try on lots of boots and find at least one really good pair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-purchases-for-fall#post-71601 Thu, 11 Jun 2009 00:46:30 +0000 Laura 71601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can't wait to hear how the Wal-Mart dress works out. I wonder how the quality will be?</p> <p>Speaking of fall purchases, did you order your Frye boots? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-purchases-for-fall#post-71569 Wed, 10 Jun 2009 23:48:22 +0000 Anonymous 71569@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great finds. I love longer length jackets and vests so I love these on you.<br /> The white pants look good. Do they feel good? Do they bag out quickly like some denim does? Or keep their size? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/recent-purchases-for-fall#post-71564 Wed, 10 Jun 2009 22:57:00 +0000 Sarah 71564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found a few other goodies at Wal*Mart while I was exchanging my white skinnies for a larger size (see: Still stuck on skinnies!).<br /> I'm curious to see what you all think. Longer length jackets and vests are a new thing for me, and I'm not sure what to think.<br /> Both the long blazer and vest are from the new designer-on-a-budget line Norma Kamali. <a href="http://www.walmart.com/catalog/catalog.gsp?cat=1025819&#038;fromPageCatId=1025819&#038;catNavId=1025819" rel="nofollow">http://www.walmart.com/catalog.....Id=1025819</a><br /> The shorter jacket is actually Nanette Lepore that I found at Buffalo Exchange.<br /> <a href="http://letitrainagain.blogspot.com/2009/06/fall-hopefuls-yay-or-nay.html" rel="nofollow">http://letitrainagain.blogspot.....r-nay.html</a><br /> I have also ordered this dress:<br /> <a href="http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10969062" rel="nofollow">http://www.walmart.com/catalog.....d=10969062</a></p> <p>Isn't this one fun?<br /> <a href="http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10969081&#038;findingMethod=rr" rel="nofollow">http://www.walmart.com/catalog.....gMethod=rr</a></p> <p>Again the prices of these things are ridiculous (the blazer was $3, the knit vest $9) but that isn't the only reason to keep them. </p>
