i met this chick last night that was like 6'6" without heels. it was pretty fantastic

Ladies,

I'm looking for ribbon this wide for my Christmas gift wrapping. I don't want the papery kind, I want real fabric. Looking for beige or white!

Went to Michael's and had no luck

12/17/2011 8:08:01 AM

did you try joann fabrics?

12/17/2011 8:08:46 AM

I haven't been anywhere else yet. Would it be crazy expensive there? I need a lot of it :/

12/17/2011 8:10:51 AM

i don't think it'd be any more expensive than it would have been at michaels. that being said nice ribbon isn't cheap

maybe look online?

12/17/2011 9:15:50 AM

Its gonna be expensive if you want real satin ribbon

your best bet would have been to order it online...you may still have time!

I miss working retail because they'd let you have the ribbon and shit for your own packages lol. Saks had fantastic wide satin ribbon

12/17/2011 10:26:35 AM

Please help a fella out, ladies. I usually get my wife Aigner purses and to my recent surprise, the department stores I used to shop for them at no longer carry them. I know I'm not looking in the right places as I've tried only major department stores (Belk, Khols, JC Penny, Sears, Dillards, etc) and google shopping thus far. Where else might I go to find what I'm in search for? I prefer local over internet, however, I'm open to any/all options.

Thank you.


^^^ Eggy, don't forget that the newspaper and other circulars (maybe the independent?) may carry 40% off single item coupons at Joanns. I believe Joanns will take Michaels or A.C. Moore coupons, which I may have one if that helps.

This may work:

Fancy shoe places might carry designer purses.

12/18/2011 7:39:47 PM

the designer's website is also a boutique... http://www.etienneaigner.com


i'm digging the tiffany tote

12/18/2011 7:58:03 PM

TJ Maxx and Marshalls typically have Aigner bags.

On that note, I've been seeing a lot of super cute Dooney & Bourke bags at those two stores.

BTW, if anyone likes American Eagle Outfitters, they have a great 40% off deal going on right now. For whatever reason, their jeans just seem to work best for me ... and the price is right. Those are the only jeans that people compliment me on. Go figure ... spend way too much on Luckies or True Religions, and $20 jeans are the ones that people notice.

^Thank you!!!

12/18/2011 8:43:37 PM

^^ dude! awesome thanks

I'm the same way with ae jeans. the boyfriend cut are the only jeans that fit me right. I've been wearing the same jeans in different colors for years now

12/18/2011 10:40:15 PM

4 yards of ribbon = 2 small boxes FAIL

12/18/2011 10:50:09 PM

Ddk, the AE boyfriend cut are my fav jeans as well! They fit just right and people always ask me where I got them. And they're surprised when I say AE. Those jeans are also super durable. I bought 2 pairs yesterday. May need to order more.

12/19/2011 7:13:57 AM

yea i have 3 or 4 pairs of them and I've had them for 2 years and they have no signs of giving out any time soon

but i may order 3 new pairs just because

12/19/2011 8:28:36 AM

I'm *this* close to having enough money to buy me some frye boots.

12/19/2011 8:29:04 AM

^^ at about 20 bucks a pop, they're a great deal right now! Plus, I know their new product line comes out in a couple of weeks ... which sometimes means that they'll change the cut/style ever-so-slightly. There was a time a few years ago where I couldn't seem to find boyfriend jeans at any of their stores.

^ What are Frye boots?

12/19/2011 8:39:16 AM

A ridiculously well made boot that aside from trendy boots I won't be buying another pair for many many years

I want these...the Veronica slouch

[Edited on December 19, 2011 at 8:55 AM. Reason : ]

12/19/2011 8:45:56 AM

Those are cute! And they look really comfy. If they're durable, then they're worth every penny.

12/19/2011 9:09:08 AM

I want some frye boots so bad. I have for a couple of years. I need about $250. Not gonna happen.

12/19/2011 9:40:12 AM

12/19/2011 9:41:06 AM

I just bought some new flats, probably won't wear them until the spring, but I got them at the merrell outlet and they were 60 percent off. I totally have a new favorite brand of shoe. I'm sure they aren't many people's cup of tea, but I think they are cute. The main reason I bought them, though, was that I have never worn a more comfortable pair of shoes. I am in love!





oh, and I want these boots



[Edited on December 20, 2011 at 3:23 PM. Reason : .]

12/20/2011 3:21:26 PM

I like both of those! Have a pair like the purple flats, but mine are grey and strappier. They pair well with skinny jeans and casual skirts ... really nice when you're at a theme park or shopping mall and need comfy walking shoes.

12/20/2011 3:57:59 PM

Oh crap, I've been given 1st row status on ideeli...

I just wish they did their shipping like Rue La La. I love the stuff on ideeli, but I hate paying $10 shipping for every freakin' day that I like something. It's really turned me off from buying things before.

12/20/2011 6:02:12 PM

Red lipstick:

I don't know anyone that can actually pull this off. Ever.

BAN RED LIPSTICKS!!!

12/21/2011 6:09:23 PM

oh no no no

don't ban red lipstick

when it's right...OMG its so right

people just think there's one shade of red and stop there...that's the problem

12/21/2011 6:15:43 PM

Give me those shoes, elise. RIGHT NOW!!

12/21/2011 6:16:37 PM

Lol, sorry I wants them and loves them. The flats are 60% off at the merrell outlet right now though!

12/21/2011 10:47:26 PM

all of you should post newds, its going well for Joie

12/21/2011 10:51:08 PM

j.caldwell should take them for us

12/21/2011 10:53:35 PM

If I looked as good as Joie, I'd just walk around naked all the time.

but I don't. and nobody needs to be seeing all that. It's called respect for other people's eyeballs

also, that awesome crocodile stitch scarf I posted earlier, yea it is taking forever and a half to make. wtf. It does however look FREAKING AWESOME

12/21/2011 11:03:00 PM

My cramps are ridiculous. This is my second month on trisprintec, and i did fine when i was on it 6 years ago, but this time around i am all weepy and i hurt so bad. Should I give it the three months the doctor said it could take to get used to it or should i go ahead and try to switch?

[Edited on December 21, 2011 at 11:29 PM. Reason : brand]

12/21/2011 11:27:40 PM

Not to scare any of you women...but I know a woman at my gym who went blind at 21 from a horrible reaction from Ortho...

12/21/2011 11:31:17 PM

^I think that's ridiculous. I highly doubt that going blind is a common side effect of ortho, or that it was the sole reason that happened to her. It's one of the more popular bc forms out there, and for good reason. I'm not saying there aren't side effects, but there's no reason to bring up an anomaly and say "hope this doesn't scare y'all" like it will just happen to anyone.

12/22/2011 7:57:02 AM

i am officially going on a Tom's shopping spree post christmas...as soon as i figure out what size i wear...


i realized yesterday i don't have any really casual flats...i have sperry's and ballet slipper'ish flats...and that's it...


and i want something slightly less casual than sneakers...

12/22/2011 7:59:51 AM

Not trying to scare any of you women, but I knew a girl that went blind from too much masturbation.

12/22/2011 9:40:54 AM

Did she also have hairy palms?

12/22/2011 9:42:08 AM

I think wolfpackgrrr must have known the same girl, because she indeed did have hairy palms.

12/22/2011 9:43:53 AM

The point of that statement was to imply that you shouldn't start switching pills out of paranoia or panic. Or...you know, stop taking BCs altogether.


I realize reactions like that to BCs is very rare.

12/22/2011 11:08:27 AM

I wouldnt say I want to switch pills because of paranoia. I'm considering switching because for the second month of the trisprintec the week before and week of my period has been almost unbearable due to cramps and mood swings, neither of which have been problems for me since I got my PCOS regulated 7 years ago.

12/22/2011 11:12:18 AM

2^oh, and why not just say "you shouldn't switch birth controls because of paranoia, they all have side effects that could be dangerous" instead of telling us a Paul Bunyan-esque story?

12/22/2011 3:05:21 PM

Move on.

I clarified.

12/22/2011 3:21:04 PM

Check out my sweet outfit I wore to the Nutcracker ballet! Me and my roomate got a picture with one of the ballerinas after the show I've had that gold dress for a year and never worn it before

12/22/2011 4:41:17 PM

very pretty dress (I love some gold)

should have stuck with black shoes if you're doing the tights

12/22/2011 4:49:50 PM

saw this on Vestique. Anytime I see shiny gold shit, I think of you ^

12/22/2011 9:43:14 PM

lol I've tried to tone it down a bit

now when you see black sequins....think of me!

[Edited on December 22, 2011 at 9:48 PM. Reason : but only if it's cute....thats not cute ]

12/22/2011 9:48:25 PM

thoughts on this? Limited is 40% off everything right now. I feel like its a lot less white-looking under the lace when you see it in person - i was window shopping last week.

12/22/2011 9:53:41 PM

That is gorgeous. Absolutely! I want it too!

[Edited on December 22, 2011 at 9:56 PM. Reason : And it's got a pretty good rating online too.]

12/22/2011 9:55:04 PM

I like that a lot

I need to find something for new year's eve

even though I have no plans as of right now....I'm at least gonna ball outrageous for dinner

12/22/2011 9:59:49 PM

Sue Wong sale on Ideeli????? Geeeez if I had a shit ton of money I think I would buy 70% of those dresses.




do want.
