Not sure if I pulled the trigger too quickly on these. It was on one of those deal-a-day sites (whiskeymilitia.com) and after I lost a cute pea coat on it a week or two ago because I thought too long about it, I bought these right away without letting myself think it through. Sigh.

somehow I miss all these awesome Gilt Sales and only happen to get on when it is Willie Smith day:(
Both my online items arrived and were fail fail. So I bought these to cheer myself up. I tried them on in the store so I know they work. They were half off online:
my husband is going to be SO against this being hung up, but i am OBSESSED with twilight and thought this was a cool poster (an american library association poster):
And these shoes too. They are very similar in style to another pair I had my eye on but the others were patent leather, and I didn' think I'd wear them as much as a regular leather.
I am feeling a bit guilty because I don't need anymore black shoes, I bet I have 30 pair of black. But I don't have any like these, so I am justifying it...
(the latter in black, $7 and $5 with coupon at COBoutlet. The former is silk and also available in yellow. I think someone was coveting it when it was in the La Redoute catalog.)
This dress is so much better IRL and may be the perfect sweater dress. The fabric is thick enough to not cling to every lump and bump, but it still drapes nicely. Perfect length. Super slimming. The skirt part is more fitted (liek a pencil skirt). And it feels like I'm wearing a blanket. I'm in love.
