Date night two Friday’s ago was the perfect reason to wear the Swoop Dress in Punk Floral. I ended up returning both of the solid colors, which are on sale now, because I knew I would always gravitate to the Punk Floral if choosing between the three colors.

I missed out on the Olympia Sandals in this color but was able to find them on ebay. Love them with this dress. I think my little BR Sleeveless Blazer will go well with this dress too.
I love this dress and can’t wait to wear it again!
Have a Great Day!

Questioning the Swoop Dress in Tropical Guava, I ordered the Turquoise Reef to see the color IRL and choose between the two.

One picture…that’s all I got. This was in the same order the Collection pieces so I was in a hurry to try those items on since I knew how the Swoop Dress fit. I think the color is beautiful and pairs well with my skin-tone. Now, that I’ve seen and tried the Silk Shantung Dress in Navy, I will have to decide which color to keep or to return..

While looking in the Men’s sale section for some more jeans for The Boy (he prefers the Slim-Straight Jean) I came across the Montague Tote Bag.
I have been looking for a Brown Leather Tote for a few months. I’m
being really picky about the size, color, leather type, interior pocket
storage, etc. I want something similar to the Madewell Transport Tote but a little more structured. Online, this Tote looked to have the right color, a pebbled leather, and seems
to be the size I am looking for so I took a chance and ordered it since
it was also on promo plus the additional 30% off.

Sadly, it’s not as structured as I hoped. I know this is not a woman’s bag and there are some features I do like about it. The color is what I’m looking for. I love the leather which is pebbled. The interior has two pockets and it zips on top to close. But it’s not sturdy. I guess I was hoping it would not be so slouchy and that the bottom would stay flat but it doesn’t. The drop is long enough that it does fit over my shoulder but because it has a strap to enclose both handles they don’t stay put for very long. The search continues.

The Frost Foulard Short-Sleeve Shirt looked interesting and cute so I decided to give it a try.
It wasn’t in my store so I had to order it. I tell ya, my Brown Sancho
is getting a work-out walking down my long driveway this week.

This is a size 8 and is quite boxy. I’m not sure where the “tailored slim and trim” part is. It feels great on, very comfortable. I was not expecting this to be blue though the color is Frost BLUE (duh AudreyBella). The online image looked more green with tan. It has white piping all around it including on the pocket and sleeves. The shirt is very cute but I’m not a pajama-style person so this will be going back.

Lastly, the Cece Suede Ballet Flat in Vivid Aqua is currently on sale. With minty colors on the brain when ordering the Frost Foulard Shirt I added these in my cart as well. This pic is a true to the real color. I’ve not met a Cece I didn’t like.

Decisions. Decisions. Such is the life of a Fashionista, right ladies?

As promised, here are the rest of my reviews, just in case you are needing a push over the edge to make a purchase before the promo ends.

Cafe’ Trouser in Cotton, Petite 8 – I am so happy I listened to WFF. The fit of these pants is amazing. The Petite 8 is the perfect fit, though I will need to have them hemmed. These are apparently a 30 inch inseam but I think they are probably a little longer. I’m wearing my highest platform heels with these pants and still they come exactly right to the ground.

Yep, das my booty…(I despise booty shots.)
These are a definite LOVE! Though they are now back-ordered until July, I ended up ordering the Black and Navy today. I should have ordered another pair in Desert to have them shortened to wear with flats.
Silk-Wool Punk Floral Skirt, 8 – Loved this skirt when I received it yesterday and even when I originally tried it on and look in the mirror. Now that I see it on, in pictures, I will sadly have to return it. It’s way too poofy though the length is perfect. I probably could have sized to a 6 in this and worn it at my natural waist. The 8 sits just above my hips. The silk-to-wool ratio is more wool than silk as compared to the Deco Shirred Skirt I have which is more silk than wool. The more wool makes the skirt a little thicker but not overly heavy.
Swoop Dress in Tropical Guava, 6 – I really am digging the Swoop Dress, though I’m on the fence about this color. I do think it’s great for Summer. The fit is perfect. This also comes in Petite and Tall, if you are questioning the length at all. I ended up ordering the Turquoise Reef to see if I like that color more than this one.
Lastly is the Cece Suede Ballet Flat, 7, in Bright Pomegranate. Hands down the Cece Ballet Flats are my favorites; even over the TB Revas! Yes, I said it. These are a bright orange but I love them! Looks like I’ve just added another colorway to my growing Collection.
Now I need to decide what I am really going to keep and what needs to be returned. Like I said earlier this morning, I am a huge fan of this roll-out and prefer the late Spring and Summer offerings for most all retailers.
Have a Great Evening!
