I got the aforementioned peplum top -- I exchanged another top that I ordered online but didn't work for me when I put it on. And I just purchased a necklace online to wear with the peplum top, planning my outfit for an event in a couple weeks.
From LLL: I got the grey In Stride Jacket and black Wunder Under Pants.
I bought 8 pairs of undies.
And I got some random off the shoulder top at Forever 21.
How's the quality and the placement of the gusset? I've read reviews that they've recently changed the luon material and the placement of the gusset which now causes CT. I really want a pair of the WU pant but I'm afraid to order.
Does yours have pockets? I noticed the one in the ad didn't have pockets, but when I tried it on the pockets had really thick lining that made them bulky no matter what size I tried. I really want it to work though!
Yes it has pockets, but when I tried it on it didn't seem to add any extra bulk. The gray one, however, showed every lump and bump I had; not flattering!

Thanks for the review, trigger not pulled for the grey one online!
Nothing ...yet but I'll more than likely try and go to Forever 21 and get some $10 skinnies bc none of my pants fit me right now. Tried to buy some in store yesterday but the line was insane and I had ds w/me.
So I am in San Fran visiting a friend and we have had two days of shopping. Yesterday at the outlet mall: (can't find anything online booo)
-Nine West wedge booties similar to this JCrew version but for $79:
-I lied- I found my exact smoking flat online. From Kenneth Cole:
-A maroon/cream colorblock cardi from Banana
-A single breasted trench from Banana- it was only $70. Have seriously been searching for one for over a year. They're all double breasted.
-two pairs of taupe tights from Gap- one pattern, one solid.
Then today, we went downtown and I got: From Gap, an orange and khaki striped sweater dress, two "knock out" bras from VS that were basically two for the price of one and each came with a free cheekie.
-these yellow skinny cords from Madewell:
-a red cotton peplum tee from F21 along with a striped sweater
ETA: Just got back from Target and was slightly disappointed. Two years ago they had these and they were thick and super soft. Last year they were a little thinner, but still pretty good. This year they're way thinner and not nearly as soft. I still bought the striped one (which looks greenish to me, IRL - not navy), but I passed on the grey one I was after since I know I'll wear the other two I have more).
Also picked up these sweater leggings in maroon, but I haven't actually tried them on yet. Hope they work - they seem really, really long:

Veruca- I have that blue top in the plum and absolutely love it. My Target can't keep these in stock.
I bought a dress, patterned tights, a skirt and brown suede boots for DD. I will be heading to Target soon for a wedding gift and some necessities, so I'll be checking out some clothes.

I am waitlisted for a pair of Born flats in red from Eddie Bauer. I ordered a tunic from Boden, two tops from Anthro and a pair of gold hoop earrings and Grey's Anatomy Scrubs from Amazon.
My anniversary gift from my husband came...I got a plain platinum band from Tiffany with milgrain detail. We got it on Ebay for less than 1/2 of retail and it looks brand new. I have a diamond eternity but I always wanted a platinum pland band and I LOVE it. I also bought myself a David Yurman ring with money I had from selling some of my old jewelry I never wore.
After I spend my Nordstrom's GC on my Cole Haan flats and use the last of my loft bonus cards, the shopping is over for me until Christmas
Carylee-love the laced up wedges. And the leopard loafers, of course.
What is the style name of the Nine West booties?
I thought of you when I bought the loafers!!! These were really comfy so I'm excited.
The Nine West ones were called "Naomi" and the color is Hickory. I can't find them online but the lady at the outlet mentioned they literally just arrived that day (Friday.) they're taller than the JCrew version and the heel is sueded. Here, I snapped a quick photo.

Just picked up a leopard print sweater, striped cardi, and a blue blazer from Nordstrom Rack. There was a gorgeous MK purse I wanted, but H talked me out of it
Tried finding a dress to wear to a bridal shower while at the mall, but no luck. Also had to pass on a pair of gold driving shoes from Macy's. They didn't have the half size larger I needed.

Just a couple new long sleeve, cotton/spandex scoop neck tee shirts, for layering. I like them to fit smoothly under blouses and blazers, and the spandex means they hold shape better than 100% cotton. I think they were like $20 each.
