Show Us Your Purchases!

[Daisy Buchanan]

Thank you Paul, Lauren and CherryRed! I am excited to get them, for I haven't bought a dress in a while.

I just won this suit too, I guess I am on a roll.

 

[Lauren]

OH! I saw that suit and was hoping someone from here would get it! I love the detailing.

 

[maisie]

I love those dresses, especially the floral one, and that suit is so cute!
Here a a couple of my lastest buys:

I love this yellow suit, it even came with the scarf lol, i think i just have a 'thing' for yellow, especially in summer suits and dresses lol!

And yes i have another pair of Re-mix's woohoo! These were off ebay and i got them for only $60! Under half the shop price and they have only been worn once, they show hardly any wear. The only thing i find about the Re-mix wedges is they are so wide i will have to get insoles to put in the front otherwise they are literally gaping and i can fit my finger in between the shoe and my foot!

I love the green shoes, Maisie. They look very cute, and yet also very comfortable.

 

[Lauren]

Oooh! Masie, you find the cutest stuff!!

Here's my latest.

Been having luck with the buy-it-nows. But unfortunately too much luck :eusa_doh: But heck, it was my birthday, so I was allowed a mini splurge, right?

 

[maisie]

Ohh i love the western/cowgirl skirt! I have never been that 'in to' the western look, but its definalty growing on me, now i really want to get a pair of cowboy (cowgirl!lol) boots!

 

[Rosie]

Very nice buys ladies. Yay Daisy! :eusa_clap I'm so happy you were able to get those dresses, I know you've been having a hard time on ebay. That floral one and the black suit are GORGEOUS.

Maisie, love those shoes.

I like that "housewife" dress, very cute. I'll have to make one like that.

 

[Daisy Buchanan]

Thank you Rosie. Yes, it does seem that my luck on ebay is changing, finally. I've been taking more of a chance, by placing bids with only about 40 seconds left. It's stressful, I placed the bid on the suit, and someone had put in a higher reserve than I estimated. So, with 20 seconds left I managed to put in a second bid, and get it in just in time. I got the suit for $2.50 more than the other bidders max bid. I'm sure that they thought they had the suit in the bag. Imagine their surprise when they found out that they had lost it. It's about time someone besides me has that sinking in the belly feeling! Ok, that's a little bit ill natured of me, but I've lost way too many cute outfits on ebay lately. It's just nice to finally win something.. Three dresses and a suit all in one day is pretty good.
Maisie and Lauren, those are great gets!
Maisie, you are so lucky you found a pair of remix shoes on ebay, wow what a price. I'm really gonna have to get myself a pair or two. I need a wider shoe because I have such flat feet, sounds like remix would be a good fit for me.
Lauren, I totally understand the birthday splurging. I'm convinced my coming birthday is the reason why I'm doing so much buying too.

Ladies, your purchases are STUNNING!!..Daisy, I am thrilled for you!! Lauren, that skirt will be adorable on you! Landgirl, what a perfectly darling dress! For me, this is sort of like winning them myself...I get to thoroughly enjoy your great photos, stories and excitement of getting these things! (OK, maybe NOT quite as good as getting them myself, but they would never have fit me anyway!!!) Good job, gals!--Etienne

I just bought this one. I'm going to use it as a "stunt dress" when I get married in June. (I'm going to change into this one so I can dance. My real dress is long and heavy and slinky and fragile, and I can barely walk in it let alone dance.)

Well, assuming it looks good when it gets here.

 

[Lauren]

Ooooohhh! Pretty! I love it! IT's so movie star looking!

And thanks, ladies for the comments on the gauchos! They'll be fun to wear- here's hoping they fit when they get here!

 

[CherryRed]

Love the gauchos Lauren and Happy Birthday!!
I did my splurging on my birthday too.

Happy Birthday Lauren

Do we have a list of everyones birthdays in the Powder Room?

 

[~landgirl~]

Happy Birthday Lauren - hope you are having a wonderful day! :beer:

 

[Daisy Buchanan]

Happy Birthday Lauren

Do we have a list of everyones birthdays in the Powder Room?

fftopic:But totally worth it! Happy belated Birthday Lauren! I hope you had a wonderful day, and have an even greater year filled with lots of good times, sewing, and shopping

I couldn't find a list of birthday's when I used the search function for the lounge. Eve, I think your idea is a very good one. If we do this, should we include the guys in it, or should we just keep it a Gal's thing?

 

[Lauren]

Thanks, gals! My birthday was actually on the 1st. Thanks so much!!

We should make a post with birthdays, you're right.

That is a spectacular dress. You will look beautiful dancing the night away in it.
