Buttons

As the self-appointed queen of bargains, I'm still a snob about my clothes. At least I don't buy fakes...

A local boutique had their super sale, and I went immediately after work. I probably tried on 50 outfits, but I settled on three very select items totalling to almost 75% off. One item is this gorgeous summer/fall coat by Milly... originally $400.

We had a cool day in Boston and I had the opportunity to sport my new coat. At the end of the day I realized that one of the buttons was missing. Normally this wouldn't bother me , but I haven't had the best couple of weeks.

I went to Milly's website, emailed the two contact names I found and went off on them about my expectations on quality. It was completely immature and unnecessary, but I did it and can't take it back.

And to my surprise, one of them responded. She apologized for the inconvenience and has put a replacement button in the mail for me.

I am very impressed with the prompt reply and action... I think I need more Milly clothes too.

Retail Therapy!!

I'm in the midst of studying for a major exam, and my favorite procrastination is shopping. In the past couple of days, I have bought 3 dresses and 2 tops. ALL on sale or a fabulous deal!


I'm super excited because my purple dress by Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vixen came yesterday. I finally popped my Cynthia Vixen cherry. I took a risk by going petite and luckily I was right! The color is gorgeous and it will be perfect for a summer day to night.

I also bought this really cute orange dress from Smart Bargains for 81% off!!! I hope it fits. I haven't tried on any Laundry by Shelli Segal dresses in a while.

My third purchase is this funky top/dress. I love the beaded neckline. It totally takes care of any jewelry dilemma.


Finally two tops from BCBG. This store has my heart. Everything fits me so well. I guess it's meant for the petite, slightly curvy, little boobies gal!
