  1. I was able to order using the last promo GETSHOPPING on an excluded item - the Icon trench. Wanted to try the petite.

    Good way to order excluded items right after the new promo goes in effect. Also did a mock check-out on the Gemma flat, a collection snake skin Sloan flats, a St James stripe tee, all excluded, and the 30% off worked!

  2. Got an October style guide yesterday in store. There are some gorgeous coats but with big price tags. There is also a houndstooth pencil skirt that looks really pretty in wool for $128.00. I didn't get really excited about any one thing but I am sure I will find lots of stuff to buy (once it goes on sale or hits the clearance store). I am wearing my factory military shirt dress today and I must say I really like it. I was able to just throw it on and go this am. I wish I had more dresses like this that the length was just right. My only complaint is that I wish it had pockets but overall I love this dress and for factory the quality is good. It really looks like the one they had retail last year.I think it comes in navy so that may be my next purchase.

    1. Doodle Dachshund-got that factory military shirtdress too and same sentiments-think it's great! Which is why I passed on retail's cotton shirtdress this yr.

    1. Awesome! I think there is going to be lots to love in the next rollout - the houndstooth pencil skirt, campbell blazer, striped turtlenecks all catch my eye.

  4. Receive the SLIM BRUSHED TWILL IN WINDOWPANE GINGHAM
    item c8783 from an in-store contact (thus avoiding the over priced one online).

    The shirt fits perfectly and is a very soft washed sort of flannel.

    The guy at the Market Mall was great and then went beyond by finding me the pants I wanted in another store and connecting me with someone there.

    While prices may have gone up, customer service is still very good.

    1. Guy in Canada, I agree about great CS. I primarily order online, so I deal with the phone/chat/email folks - they have always been helpful! Thanks guys!

  5. I ordered the military trench coat c9128 last night at midnight, the getshooping promo worked for 30% off, the ship date was 9/21, it shipped today at 7:00. Will review when it arrives!

    1. Hi Annie - I ordered the Icon Trench using the getshopping promo. I even did a mock check-out on some items that are excluded and it worked! :-)

    2. I almost ordered that as well, but decided to try something aliittle different, my only concern is that the military trench will be too long. I thought it was back ordered, but apparently not! Let me know how you like the icon trench when you get it.

    3. Will do! The trench is backordered in my size P2. I won't get it till Oct or Nov. Who knows, I may change my mind If I see something better from next week's roll-out. Hehe..

      Let us know as well how the trench is. It looks pretty. Too bad it's not offered in petite.
