I saw Minnie Travel Flats in-store a few weeks ago. I am not a huge fan of the Reva Ballet Flats as the elastic at the back pinches my heel. But these were on the shelf at my local store in a 6 1/2 and I decided to slip them on.

The Gunmetal color is beautiful. It looked purple originally but changed to silver-ish in a different light. Though the size 6 1/2 was a little snug I could already tell how comfortable they would be in my regular size 7. The insole is padded well and these feel almost like slippers on your feet.

The toe still has the large double-T logo like the Reva Ballet Flats.

They come in other solid colors like red, yellow, orange and light blue. They fold in half to make it easy to slip in your purse for travel. This color looks so versatile and maybe better than a true metallic gold or silver.

Super cute! Really comfortable!

Have you tried the Minnie Travel Flats?

Unless I really really love something I usually wait until Tory Burch holds one of their “buy-more-save-more” events to purchase what I want. Today starts their Spring Event, and you can get up to 30% off with SPRING.

My picks are a mix of new arrivals and some I’ve tried on that are now on sale. A good pair of white jeans should always be in your closet and I replaced my old pair last year with the Cropped Skinny Jean. The Dani Dress looks so crisp and clean but I don’t really have anywhere to wear it in my current life.
As you can see tops are the bulk of my picks this time. I like the big checks of the Poplin Relaxed Tunic but the arms may be cut a little skinny. I tried the Olympia Tee on back in January and chose the Lou Tee instead. I have worn that several times since I purchased it so it was the right choice at the time. 
!function(doc,s,id){ var e, p; if(!doc.getElementById(id)) { e = doc.createElement(s); e.id = id; p = ‘//shopsensewidget.shopstyle.com/widget-script.js’; var cb = new Date().getTime(); p += ‘?cb=’ + cb; e.src = p; doc.body.appendChild(e); } if(typeof window.ss_shopsense === ‘object’){ if(doc.readyState === ‘complete’){ window.ss_shopsense.init(); } } }(document, ‘script’, ‘shopsensewidget-script’);

Of course, I love the Kerrington Tote and this new one in bright polka dots may need to be added to my closet. There’s also a Mini version with a zipper pouch in the center.
I plan on going to the store this evening to try some items on and then make a final decision. Do you have any favorites you are considering from Tory Burch during this sale?

When I was trying on clothes at Tory Burch a few weekends ago, I went in with the specific purpose of buying the Lou Tee. I knew it work well with what I have in my closet for this coming Spring and Summer. Everything else was going on the Wishlist. But sometimes, sometimes, you find an item so perfect that you feel it was made just for you. For me, that was the Alice Dress.

The Alice Dress is made of Silk Georgette and fits so well. I tried on a size 6 thinking it would be too snug in the arms but the dress even fit me well there. I saw myself in the mirror and said “Wow!”. I really did not expect this dress to fit this well or look this good on me. The length is perfect on my 5’2″ frame, and with a little help from Spanx, fits even better than the dressing room.  
The only negative I have is that the collar flops open. That can be fixed with a little Fashion Tape. And shoe options range from Metallic to Nude to Sandals. I cannot wait to wear the Alice Dress and may try it with my Corso Como Samual Boots for our next date night. 
Have a Great Day!

I was hoping I would find a nice casual dress for daily use. The jersey dresses are always nice for that.

~ Annette Dress, Oasis Persica, Medium ~
I’m not sure I’m a fan of the big floral print over the stripes. The belt wasn’t my favorite either. The fit of the Medium was snug and I would consider sizing up because of that. I don’t mind close-fitting clothing because there’s Spanx for that, but I think I might feel more comfortable in the Large. 

It also comes in a pretty Blue Floral. I think I might like that one more since the print is smaller.

~ Elisabeth Printed Dress, Red Pepper, Medium ~
I tried on both colors of the Elisabeth Printed Dress. I knew I would like the Navy on me but wanted to see how the color of the red looked as well. I like it but prefer the Navy more. I also like that the Navy has stripes at the arms and hem. 
The Medium is TTS and the length on both dresses hits above the knee on me. 

~ Elisabeth Printed Dress, Navy Blue Issy Stripe, Medium ~
I’m just partial to Navy I suppose but I really like the look of this dress better.

I’ll be back later with some Factory reviews.

The Sage Top is so beautiful it deserves it’s own review post. I can’t even describe the detail on it so I’ll just give you what Tory said about it.

“Delicate and graphic, the design on our Sage Top features a toss of flowers, done in fil coupé, or cut threads, for a unique jacquard-like effect”

This is stunning in person. I tried it on to review only but was very very tempted to get it. But since it looks so delicate and dressy I wouldn’t be able to get many wears out of it. 
I tried on a size 8, thinking it was a 10, and it fit pretty well. I was very cautious about the sleeves since they probably snag or tear easy. 

This is lined in silk gazar and the website says it machine washable! I’d probably hand wash it, very carefully. I love that it’s lined in silk.

There’s a sweater as well, the Henrietta Sweater, that has the same flower on it and is just as gorgeous. 

Have a Great Evening!
