It's now $129.99 in case you didn't know. I didn't. I found the jacket. Woo hoo! She'll be surprised for the new year. Here are some sizes in stores, for anyone looking for it. I called a lotta stores on the west coast as I knew they'd still be open. I found:<br /><br />Corte Madera, CA - 4<br />Palo Alto, CA - 6, 12<br />Portland (Pioneer), OR - 8, 12<br /><br />If you order by phone you'll be charged shipping since it's on sale.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06119918515498248436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-71541935034878490552010-12-20T21:01:25.826-05:002010-12-20T21:01:25.826-05:00Lots of goodies came in today:

The cut was more spot as well than the previously sent Colletta. I'm glad I stalked online until one finally popped up. The color is more of a very deep dark Forrest Green. Not much of a Teal hint like in the picture. The Nightfall Blue has more Teal in it. <br /><br /><b>Glen Plaid Trench</b><br />Burlap sack anyone? The fit was spot on, it just looks like a big brown burlap sack on me, I think due to it's thickness. This one might be cute on a size 4. <br /><br /><b>Donegal tweed schoolboy blazer</b><br />TTS & hits at hip. Not much structure and sort of boring, but I can see a few uses for it. Still debating on whether to keep this one.<br /><br /><b>Teal Flannel Boy Shirt</b><br />TTS, but thicker and bluer than I imagined. Definitely going back. <br /><br />On another note, I decided to keep & deal with my long sleeved Stadium-Cloth Coat. $38 for the Tailor to do there magic.Wolfyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05893406028594235211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-53057982734239650622010-12-20T18:44:56.756-05:002010-12-20T18:44:56.756-05:00Got the occasion clutch in deep pine.

If the price goes down more later you can always rebuy, but I'm willing to bet final sale is coming back on the 23rd/24th, so if you wait and buy for the 1st time later you may be stuck with something you hate IRL.WRAFPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13652924141617999701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-21975580413391911282010-12-20T15:54:01.284-05:002010-12-20T15:54:01.284-05:00Does anyone know if the "Vintage cotton ribbo...Does anyone know if the "Vintage cotton ribbon henley" is TTS?

I ordered a size 2 (my *normal* jacket size this year) and while it fits nicely in the shoulders, it is 2 inches too big through the torso/waist area. I think it's cute though, so I may see if it's possible to have it altered to fit. <br /><br />As for placing another order, if I had free shipping on my account I would consider it, but I really don't want to have to reach the $150 minimum again just to get the three $20 items I want.Melissa@AllThingsSimplifiedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06076948687302539385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-14551817106267854462010-12-20T14:10:38.402-05:002010-12-20T14:10:38.402-05:00Anyone think they'll be one last promotion bef...Anyone think they'll be one last promotion before Christmas? I ordered the Stadium Cloth Elements Coat because I had been lusting after it and it popped back in my size in the Sandstone, but of course it just shipped and I'm in between promotions! I would love to be able to get a price adjustment, as I saw the coat in the Fatigue color marked down in B&M. Hoping they run one more before my price adjustment window runs out, but I won't hold my breath.Jessyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01258192838454975333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-1588349165061302452010-12-20T14:10:26.114-05:002010-12-20T14:10:26.114-05:00Whoops!

I normally take a 12 or 10 in shirts and 8 in pants (yes it's weird). I also got the double cloth salon coat in plum - they didn't have size 10 but only size 12. I'm hoping it doesn't look too humungous on me - otherwise I will have to send it back - not easy for someone in canada especially with how long it takes to get the duty back. <br /><br />I also ended up getting a long sleeve crew neck tee for $10 and hoping the quality is good (I haven't ordered any tees so far) so that it can last a few seasons.The French Madehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15472458200747409672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-67087915806902253582010-12-20T13:39:32.336-05:002010-12-20T13:39:32.336-05:00Thanks, Eloise!

You know how some of JCrew's denim/cords are sewn obviously bigger in the thigh and then cut in towards the leg above the knee. When they loosen up after a bit of wear the thigh area has the extra material bulking out on the side? Well Madewell's Rail Straight Cords are fitted and straight in the thigh area (love,love,love!!). <br /><br />The colors are pretty basic, Pumice, Silver Pine and Black Coal but they work perfect w/a pair of grey flat booties I got from Anthro during their sale. Pumice is really an odd color. It looks grey at first but has a hint of tan/brown to it.<br /><br />They're only $37.49 during the current 25% off sale item promo.

Also got the curator pants, which I have been obsessing over since they came out but which I thought would never go on sale -- and now I have them for under $40! They're cropped, yes, but I am actually wearing them now at work, with a silk shell, soft wool blazer and heels, and I think they look great.Roxy Floralunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17487567149876517850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-40912708281922785022010-12-20T10:45:39.012-05:002010-12-20T10:45:39.012-05:00DaniBP and ina, congrats on the Lisette shell, it ...DaniBP and ina, congrats on the Lisette shell, it is really beautiful IMO, one of the best tha they ever made.<br /><br />I received my curator pants.
