Tight fit for an ipad with a case. The blue was really pretty and I would have kept it if I hadn't already gotten the Tillary Tote. I also got the Lucille dress- it was short (almost mid-thigh) on me, but I am 5'11. Not enough extra fabric to let it out. Overall, the style seemed a little juvenile to me and the dress should be in the crewcuts section instead.ViewFromTheHillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08971152928972340388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-63395301442560166552012-04-30T07:50:17.509-04:002012-04-30T07:50:17.509-04:00@Tiffany Rose re; Mona- both leather and patent pa...@Tiffany Rose re; Mona- both leather and patent pairs were TTS for me length wise, a bit snug width wise but with a give in a leather- will stretch.

I got an email today saying that now it won't ship until 6/4! That is absolutely maddening - there is NO reason it shouldn't ship on 4/30 when I ordered it within 12-16 hours of it hitting the site! It was still available in my size the next day.<br /><br />Has anyone else had this happen to them? For those who ordred the Patricia Dress and have already received it/it has already shipped, when did you place your order?Caitlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01172782486495509920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-87310979574055803742012-04-29T14:47:45.606-04:002012-04-29T14:47:45.606-04:00I stopped by and posted reviews of few new items H...I stopped by and posted reviews of few new items <a href="http://ajcshoppinnghabit.blogspot.com/2012/04/stripes-and-dots-stll-going-strong.html" rel="nofollow">HERE</a>.

I ended up getting the seersucker skirt (sized down in this one) and polka dot silk Natalie blouse which fit like a dream, TTS, no armhole bra view, ruffles at collar lay just right. A real beauty :o). Also, I tryed on the floral tie blouse (same as striped version) and discovered a solution to the bra strap dilema!!!) Wear a racerback design and utilize one of those small strap holder together thingys to hold straps together (found mine in Bloomys lingere dept)in the FRONT. Walah!
