Layered pearl necklace ($59.99) - This didn't move in price during the promo, but it's something I used my RO 'savings' toward. I initially bagged on the different pearl sizes in another post, but hope I love it when it arrives. I had a similar one by F21. The pearls looked really good, esp for $12.80, but the stringing was too tight, or the wire they used wasn't flexible enough. Also, I think the F21 one wasn't long enough. Uh oh. I didn't even think to measure how short/long it will be on me. I went by the online pics only. I'mma piece-a-werk today.

Allura shift dress in superfine cotton ($79.99) - Sun nite this was $125, then it went to $148 and now $79.99 - I hope the beechwood (4) works for my coloring. I threw that on w/my RO of the dress in navy - Irl pics
4 - chest = 36.5", waist = 31.25", low hip = 40"
6 - chest = 37.5", waist = 32.25", low hip = 41"
Delaney eyelet-trim shirt (now $29.99) - This is the culprit that set it off my RO. It was on promo for $49.50 and dropped to $29.99. I've tried it on and really liked the eyelet, even though it's at the bottom. This means you lose the detail if you want to tuck in the shirt. I plan to wear it unbuttoned kinda low and a big necklace to cover the chest a bit. The RO mindset isn't a clear one. I got it in white & black. Why did I think that would be a good idea? Because I originally paid $35 for one and thought $40 for two was pretty awesome. Lawd, somebody get me off the Internet! Check it out on Shopping On the Fly
4 - Chest = 38.75", Center Back Length = 26.75"
6 - Chest = 39.5", Center Back Length = 27"
P4 - Chest = 37.75", Center Back Length = 25.75"
P6 - Chest = 38.75", Center Back Length = 25"
If any of these go down even more in price, do me a favor and don't tell me! *lol* I felt good about the previous prices I paid and now I'm feeling even better even though I probably have 3 extra things than I intended. J Crew --> #winner (sighs)
JCAs, remember to check out the links to irl pics. I spent a good amount of time today pulling out old items and updating new ones. And if you're trying to reach the minimum for free shipping, which is technically $214 before 30% off with LOVEIT, sometimes working with the items on promo can help.

reading your blog always brings a smile to my face and usually a laugh out loud! I'm glad to read that other people have clothes that they want to wear but they just can't find them . . .
ReplyDeleteI was doing perfectly fine avoiding that sale until you posted that eyelet trim shirt! And then, of course I had to see what else I missed.
ReplyDeleteI so want to order the Allura shift but I didn't get to try it on and now its gone from the B&M store near me :(. The measurements sounds like it would fit but not sure how the torso would fit a tall girl.
ReplyDeleteSo happy to see I'm not the only one who falls for multiples...you with the Delaney shirt, me with the Chevron Pleat Shirt. I finally caved and bit on this promo. The Jackie twin sets started me off, and I fell of the "no more JC shirts" wagon. Sigh. Drinking the crewlade...
ReplyDeleteMartha - Thank you! :-) I *still* haven't found that cerise cardi to wear. I hope it shows up soon.
ReplyDeleteTerrie - *lol* I know the feeling.
MaryMoo - I like the Allura because it doesn't have a seam on the dress that needs to hit specifically on the waist. I'm tall in spirit and can only guess if it would look good on your frame. I'm leaning towards looking good. The length was a bit long on me, so I would say it doesn't run on the shorter side.
Closet Crisis - I try to not do multiples and it's so hard! There's always the argument that if something fits well...and sometimes it's just true. I gotta get it.
