  6. Careful if you decide to order from Talbots - according to the posts on their FB page, inventory/fulfillment has been a nightmare with all the promos they've been offering lately.

  7. silver_lining, yeah, I had an item cancelled from my order last week. It has happened to me many times, unfortunately. But I don't really mind because did I really need that top anyway? No. I have this dress coming to me this week... hope it is as lovely as it looks! I love some of Talbots' stuff online but usually when I receive it I am disappointed.

  8. Land's End canvas has $25 cords today, and free shipping with code TWINKLE and pin 5202. I am very temped by the skinny cords... so much more affordable than J.Crew at this price!

  12. Can anyone tell me about the quality of Talbots' cashmere? I am contemplating a few pieces during this promo but are they as thin and prone to pilling and holes as the J Crew cashmere? TIA!

  15. I stopped in Banana Republic for a minute on my way home yesterday. There was a display of color block tees and some really cute bright colored enamel jewelry near the door. I checked online today and I don't see the jewelry. Either it's sold out online or it's in-store only.

  16. Robin, I bought several of the Talbots cashmere sweaters on promo last year for $25 and the quality is surprisingly good , especially at that price.
