Had a super busy morning today at work and am only now sitting down at the computer to reply to all you lovelies. (Although I did keep checking on this thread on my phone while doing my work!). This is SO FUN, and you guys know me so well. =) Seriously I could see myself wearing all of these things. I am going to try to reply to all of you separately, so this is going to be a loooong post!
Una, Ted Baker is always a winner! That print is incredible. I don't have the best luck with his fits, but a skirt is pretty much the easiest thing to fit…
Caro, Kiwigal, Ramya, Shevia, Deborah, Maneera: I want to especially thank you for introducing me to fantastic international designers. This is such an awesome result to come out of this game! Such gorgeous pieces, I only wish shipping/returns were easier!
Natalie and Aubergine, I noticed you both picked Escada pieces (and I love them both!). I haven't ever really looked at their stuff, but I'm going to start now!
Denise, I love the color scheme of those sandals! And the double ankle straps.
Columbine, the embroidery on that top is just gorgeous.
Greyscale, ooh that skirt would make a fantastic and unexpected formal ensemble.
Astrid, lace skull print Docs! So fantastic. I doubt they will fit my low-volume feet, sadly, but they are super cool.
Caro, now I really want a teal python jacket!
Kiwigal, that dress is killer. It even has my favorite trumpet hem skirt!
Natalie, I could definitely see you in the pieces you picked too. Asymmetrical seams and hemlines are some of my favorite things.
Diane, yay thanks for finding something for my short waist! The geometric print on that jacket is really striking.
Karie, love both toppers you picked (and of course the floral clutch too). I have actually been thinking about getting an olive topper of some sort…
Carla, you know me so well! I can't believe I don't own a peacock fascinator already actually.
Gryffin, you are right that I am always looking for interesting, comfortable footwear that I can wear with my crazier pieces. These would definitely work!
Ummlila, that Coach floral leather is goooorgeous. Thanks for the link to the shell too - you're right, a good open (but not too low) neckline top is hard to find.
Shevia, I remember looking at Imelda shoes when Suz came home with hers. I really wish shipping/returns were easier/less expensive. I LOVE the sandals you've linked.
Daria, I wear oxfords year round so these would be perfect.
Ramya, I could definitely see myself in that dress!
Aubergine, those booties are fab, and they look like a true summer-compatible bootie. I might have to go try these on!
Ann, I've looked at Namaste bags before! They have great colors and seem super practical and pretty.
Tex, ooh a lace vest would be great fun. I love the floral shift too - just my type of dress.
Deborah, I have been looking unsuccessfully for culottes. I wish I could get/try Metalicus here.
Meredith, that print is to die for. I am so sad I can't actually purchase it!
Peri, I love that top (you're right though, not with the matching skirt). I am actually craving seafoam things lately; I'm not sure it's the best color for me but I don't care.
Joy, I remember when Angie picked that jacket too! I love the shape and the gold zippers. Ted Baker jackets are almost always too long for me though.
Carter, I love the rose print!
Maneera, the color of that bag is gorgeous.
Kkards, that camel color is not one that I have a lot of but I do think it works for me. It's hard to find in retail!
Deb, your link is not working. Post it again? I want to see!
Vivian, I don't tend to wear tomato red but the shape and texture of that coat are awesome!
Rachy, I love the shorts! Where are they from?
