Which by the way was great on my pocketbook, but I just didn't see anything I loved.

That was my first I am not sure and then the sleeves bothered me. I decided to buy/try the lollip instead.

The SA said new arrivals will be in Monday, so they were clearing out and making room. There were lots and lots of items on sale in store that are not online. The silk pocket linen cardi in every color was $59.99, the dip-dyed linen sweaters were on sale, the new sequin falls cardi in fawn that came out with the last rollout, all of the colors of the fringe tunics, the paillette cardigan that was $118 is now $69.99. Tons of stuff. Unfortunately, there wasn't an additional percent off in store.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04337743056688713317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-7892849040984057762010-06-09T22:29:26.643-04:002010-06-09T22:29:26.643-04:00jcrewphd - i ordered the sea urchin and returned i...jcrewphd - i ordered the sea urchin and returned it. The peachy parts were plastic and it was a large volume necklace on my frame if that makes any sense -- lots of pouf (vs. say the carrington collar or other statement necklaces). I think it would work well on someone less scrawny than moi though!

They honored the promo price and then gave me an educator discount on top, so I found it to be a pretty good price. <br /><br />I would say this is definitely not for those of you who shy away from statement necklaces. It is bigger than you would think and the bib hangs low (although I am thinking there would be a way to adjust it but haven't tried it yet). I love the color of the gold, I love the bits and bobbles in the bib and know that I will be able to find multiple occasions to wear it. <br /><br />I haven't worn it, but maybe I will soon...hmmm... :) Hope that helps.dinagideonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17892195449655319256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-55692839900646246372010-06-09T21:28:18.895-04:002010-06-09T21:28:18.895-04:00Slastena: Thanks for the link...

This is also the first time I have ever commented on a blog, yikes! So I have purchased 2 orders with this last promo and may make another. I have just discovered the pencil skirts and the perfect shirts and am now addicted to them, they make me look so much thinner than I really am. Thinking about the Bridget dress but being a size 8 now (size 6 on 'thin' days), I fear I may not have the figure for it =(dinsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03412795462473395881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-17093001726811535152010-06-09T17:22:57.478-04:002010-06-09T17:22:57.478-04:00Cass, your comments cracked me up. :)Cass, your comments cracked me up. :)Caleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10515446743059372751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-14857486725478659362010-06-09T16:55:52.516-04:002010-06-09T16:55:52.516-04:00I would like to see more of the graphic tees, the ...I would like to see more of the graphic tees, the splash paint ones there are now are not that nice especially when you see a whole wall of them on markdown.

The "fade out sailor" is nice heavy cotton like the "perfect-fit" tees. I love the "vintage cotton" v-necks. The fabric is very similar to my pricey RPM tees from Japan.

Haven't gotten the first one yet so i may be returning two of them if it doesn't work out but didn't want to lose out on cheaper price in my size if i liked it. Also picked up a few new additions to the sale--twisted pearl hammock necklace and metallic pom pom flats.<br /><br />Comments on a few other items others have mentioned: pretty ruffles jersey dress--got this before, would have been good but YES the shoulder ruffles are huge, so i had to return. the SA asked why i was returning and i said it made me look like i had wings.<br /><br />lollipop jacket--i saw a 70-yr old woman wearing this at the bus stop with brown polyester-looking pants and since then I just cannot buy it.
