Someone really, really, really wants these shoes. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=63889&item=5367488604&rd=1"
oh, I know! I saw that auction yesterday and I was like holy crap! So yes, someone is wanting those wedges really, really bad.
totally how i feel. i am debating on getting them or getting some sort of knockoff."
dot, I'm sure you've seen the delia's knockoffs of those wedges, which aren't even half as cute. The only place I've found the actual C. Ronson ones are at flipfloptrunkshow.com in size 9, white. Darn it, why can't I wear a 9?!?
Aw, dc, did I ever tell you what happend to my precious jacket? So Farrah and I went to a party two Augusts ago and I put it in the bedroom where they were keeping all the sweaters, coats, etc. When it was time to leave, the bedroom was being "occupied" so I couldn't get my jacket. Little did I know that was the last time I was to see my jacket. Since then I have made at least half a dozen attempts, I am not kidding, to get it back - to no avail... For some reason I haven't been able to let it go (well, I was doing pretty well for a while but now that I saw its photo I feel like calling for it again, ha!). Farrah knows how sad I am about it :( Such a hot jacket & a great price *sigh*
But anyway, back to business. I love the first dress especially with the C. Ronson wedges! I really need to get some flirty dresses soon. Oh, Delias came out with a pair of wedges that's really close to yours. I think I might order them soon.

Thanks, girls! The credit for the AE dress goes to Charlly for her column this month... I never would have noticed that dress if she hadn't picked it out.
This is a good way to see online purchases actually on someone, isn't it? If anyone else wants to "review" and online purchase like this, with pics, etc, that would be cool. So hard to see what things look like on.

ahh the INC denim jacket i remember the desperate hunt for that on the lucky forum. love the first outfit sooooooo much. think the second outfit is great for pool days. with the first outfit i'd wear the coral necklace (great story) but i'd add some other necklaces as well to funk it up a bit. this necklace from urbn is just the ticket. . .
i might do a different bag with the first outfit. to give it a little fun edge. . .

Okay, as soon as I saw the jacket I said to myself, "Vanessa is going to be so bummed when she sees that!!" BTW, the girl that she can't get it back from would never fit into it in a million years so I don't know what the problem is.
Anyway, you look fabulous dc! I love the dress. I was actually at AE the other night and missed it and I was at a pretty big store.
An FYI for all of you ladies, they have a ton of adorable spring summer tops for great prices. I hate spending a lot of $$ on that kind of stuff because you never really get a ton of wear out of it. My bf and I went in there so that he could pick up a couple of the fitted Polo tops that he likes for summer because they were on sale. He told me that I could pick up a couple of things if I wanted to because he had a 15% off coupon. So here is the best part: we took the stuff up to the counter, two Polo shirts for him @ $20 a piece, two tops for me (1 for $20 and 1 for $15) and a pair of sunglasses - $20. The girl at the counter was dealing with a phone call and started to ring us up and take off the 15% off. She tells us the total with tax $52!!!!! We both looked at each other and were like okay. Then she apologizes for being on the phone because she is not supposed to even take calls. We walked outside and looked at the receipt...she didn't charge us for my tops!!! Woo-hooooooooo!! So I actually didn't break my ban at all because I didn't buy anything. My bf was so pissed. He hates how luck I am. Remember a couple of years back when the guy at Filene's wasn't paying attention and didn't charge me for 3 pairs of Sevens. Anyway these are the tops. They are adorable on:
Actually on sale for $14.50 now!!
I blew it up because you can't see it, but it has monsters on it. So cute!!!

Farrah - what cute little tops! (monsters... hee) I hope Vane gets her jacket back - it makes me sad because she earned good jacket karma by helping me to get mine!
