I think it looks good Davey

 

I just called H&M's customer service and (here) you can return sale items bought online, and she thought that they have the same rules in The Netherlands

I know I rarely ever buy clothes/shoes lol. But here was my Xmas pressie to myself. Wasn't supposed to buy it but I had to cuz I needed to photograph them for my assignment. Expensive bit of material and I get another pair of sneakers oh and this pair is a Nike Air Force 1 sneaker in white & varsity red

Why I don't have enough money to buy this $1800 Burberry leather trench? It looks so nice and 55% off retail price.

Oh thanks for the tip Frida!! But I didn't buy it in the end... good thing too... cos I tried a XL in the store, and it was way too short!

 

 

I don't like that coat, Bellamy, it's way too feminin IMO

[Bellamy]

It's fashion and glamour. Anyway thanks for helping me stop drolling over the pics.

I got a few clothes for Christmas. The close of the words is what was written on the back of the black 'Want To?' shirt.

^ Congrats! I spot some Celine perfume boxes too

 

 

Krys: Nice pics!

 

Bellamy: I think it looks good

 

 

 

 

I've gotten some great stuff on sale, unfortunately they're not very photogenic so I skipped that... I got:

 

1 black v-neck cardigan with 3/4 sleeves with a little "poofyness" LOL

1 basic pearl grey/beige cardigan

1 black top with 3/4 sleeves and draped neck

1 blue shortsleeved top/tunic with front pleat, pockets and cowl neck

1 black down jacket

 

All for only $350 instead of 700, yaay

 

 

Oh, and I won this Giorgio Armani silk scarf the other day. $100 + $30 in s/h and then I expect another 25% in customs but if it's got the same weight and density as it seems to have in the pics then it will be soo worth it

[Belle Céline]

Cute scarf!

 

Yep I was hoping I'd get Pure Brilliance or Notes but I got Sensational and Celine Dion.

Thanks!

 

 

Haha, I'm sorry.. I personally really like "Celine Dion" though

[Belle Céline]

Notes is my favorite.

[Krys]

Thanks Frida Ooo that LV book looks interesting

What's worse. It is $1400 now. I can't resist much longer if it get any cheaper later.

 

Nice scarf, Frida. That's your home?

 

Here are a pair of Costume Nation Active sneakers I got earlier. I've wore them for a few times. SO they are not brand new in the photos. It's only $80.

 

[Frida]

Thanks Frida Ooo that LV book looks interesting

 

Yeah I think it's gonna be pretty interesting! Tons and tons of architecture and interior pics

1) Whoa, it's down to $1400? I'm surprised you haven't caved already

 

2) Thanks! No, that's the seller's pics, it was sent out yesterday so I won't get it until next week at the earliest

 

3) $80 for a pair of shoes is great, congrats

[Bellamy]

1) Whoa, it's down to $1400? I'm surprised you haven't caved already

Yeah. I was just thinking I don't wear formal dresses and shoes very often, mostly jeans and sneakers. I'm not sure if that leather trench would fit my style.

[Frida]

You're the only one able to judge, it's a lot of money to just hang in the wardrobe

[Bellamy]

Can jeans and sneakers fit a leather trench like that, or never?

[Claudette]

Do you guys still get ''Notes'' and ''Celine Dion''? I cannot tell you to how many stores I've been in the last couple of months in search of ''Notes''. They all say that they don't make it anymore. We only get ''Sensational'' and ''Chic'' at the moment. Not even ''Enchanting'' and that and ''Notes'' are my favourite.

[Frida]

Bellamy: I think a more dressed up look works better

 

Claudette: Not sure which one's I'd be able to find anymore

Basically all I ever see in the stores here is Sensational. They have the gift sets around Christmas and have Sensational and Celine Dion, sometimes they have a set with three in it which is usually those two and Belong. My friend ordered me two small bottles of notes from amazon I think. There's a parfum store in the mall that had it but they wanted SIXTY dollars for the regular bottle! You can get that same size bottle on amazon for twenty.

[ladylindsey]

haha Frida- I saw that at Versailles in France and wanted it! They had the artist's- please forgive me, I can't remember his name- that is designing for LV- his installation was there while we were.

And I hate to say this is the best photo I have of the new Speedy. With my head inside it smelling the nice new canvas. :xmas_laugh:

2) LOL, that pic of Matthew is great!

3) Hahahahaha! Aaah, the smell of new LV!

I don't think you should get that trench coat either Bell. Davey right, it is a bit feminine. But also you could end up looking like one of the Gestapo! http://www.uc-forum.com/forum/images/smilies/Nazi_Smiley.gif

 

I can't see it being a coat you'd wear all that much. Especially if you have a more smart casual style. Plus unless you are quite tall, (which perhaps you are) you can look a bit ridiculous in a trench coat. I know I would!

 

Lyndsey. There's something so familiar about seeing people open their presents under the tree like that. Hope you came up for air eventually.

I didn't buy it. But I still want a Burberry trench coat.

[Frida]

Me too, a beige one. But not until I loose some weight

[Frida]

On a scale from 1 to 10, how stupid of me would it beto buy these just because Celine has them (in another colour)?

They look SO cheap, but it's be fun LOL

[MTJ]

Um, she didn't just wear them. She wore them to the Grammys! If you don't get them I hope Lindsey does!

[Frida]

Hahaha, poor Lindsey will DROWN in that size True, they're Grammy shoes, but they still look incredibly cheap (but if they don't go up in price soon I don't think I can resist )

 

The mailman just woke me up, my scaaarf is heeeere. Not at all the colour I was expecting, and not as heavy, BUT I didn't have to pay any import fees so I'm happy We'll see if I can actually wear that colour

 

 

 

(That's a lot of smileys in such a short post LOL)

[ladylindsey]

hahaha yeah way too big! I think I like the champagne ones better than th eblack (just personally). I do have about 15 pairs of black heels. I need to stray away from that!

 

Sorry about your scarf, Frida It looks lovely in the photos. I hope you can 'make it work.'

 

I neeeeeed some dresses for Vegas. I tried a few one shoulder sequin dresses on in a boutique a few days ago. Great price- on clearance plus 20% off, but they were too big They would have been PERFECT! One was gold sequins on the front, one shoulder, tan solid fabric on the back, mid thigh length. The other was black front and back with black and silver sequins in a diagonal pattern on both front and back, same one shoulder, mid thigh. The shoulder that was "out" was tooo floppy. If I leaned over you would see down it. I was crushed. haha

 

I'm dying to have a nice gold sequin party dress for Vegas though. the search continues.

[Frida]

^ I hope you can find one you like

 

 

The scarf (or the colour) didn't work, so I ordered some black "silk dye" today, weäll see how that works out
