B&M Fitting room + Outfit IRL - Sunday 09/12/10

Just  a quick post about some items I've tried in the B&M at Price Street, one day after the Fashion Night. All that because on that night I could not see anything...only Jenna Lyons :-) so, I had to come back next day t the store, and there we go...

Faded paisley flouncette blouse

$98 - $49.99 final sale online

Close-up showing my black tank top for you to se that it looks nice with black under it :-)

The print is beautiful, the fabric and details delicate.

Size 4

I love this top, but I have no need for it at the moment so, I didn't get it. :-(

But if it comes another 30% off FS...hummm...I don't know if I will have power to resist! lol

Silk and sequin scoopneck tee

Review by My closet, my baby and I

$148 - Olive Moss

Beautiful well made top.

The color and the fit is gorgeous.

Wearing XSmall.

I also got very impress with the Sweet Almond color, 

on sale in-store for $89.99.

I thought I won't like this color on me, but I was wrong, I really like this one!

I also tried the Merino Boyfriend sweatshirt

Size Small, color Honey I think.

S69.50 last Sunday at Prince St. B&M. 

Love this color and I believe a XS would have a better fit?

My fave cardigan, reviewed here by Slastena.

Arrow Sweater jacket

Beautiful, nice heavy "jacket".

 I love the length.

But I'm so in love with the color:

Marled shawl-collar cardigan

$138 - color marled black

  Marled saddle

$138 - $69.99 FINAL SALE (online)

Size Small

TTS imo.

  I fell in love for this saddle color!

 I decided to try when I found out it was on sale and what a surprising color!!

Love, love love it!

I always turn my head for black/whit/grey tons at first look, and I've tried the marled black here. 

I didn't try to size it down because I plan to wear long sleeves under it.

I hope you can see how beautiful the marled saddle color is!

I took this beautiful cardigan home.

Here my OOTD - Sunday 09/12/10:

Linen silk pocket Cardigan, J.Crew

Because it still Summer...J.Crew & Boden

This is a randon outfit from a couple weeks ago that I didn't post and I want to share today my love for this white dress. 

Is it from...2008 or 2007? I don't really know, I got it through eBay and just love as much as I did when I first saw this cropped cardigan by Boden!  

The weather is gorgeous these days and I'm planning to wear this outfit againJ

Here the lovely dress:

40" pearl and chain necklace, J.Crew

Favourite cropped cardigan, Boden

White dress, Jcrew

Wedge sandals, Arezzo

 Metallic mirror belt, J.Crew

I couldn't resist to grab a belt to see how 60's is about...lol.

I don't have waist  at all to wear belts like that, but this cropped cardi inspired me.

Hope everyone is having a great week so far!

XOXO

J.Crew Fashion Night Out IRL with Jenna Lyons

Now, let’s talk about Last Friday.

For my FNO I picked this outfit and what I normally do when I have a date with my DH in the city is take the train.

Well, I choose (with such great help from my bloggers) the Alecia suede peep toes, debuting in big style J. I didn’t want to take a chance of getting my feet hurt so I went to the event in my flat Oxfords (with my Alecia in my bagJ)

My DH was waiting for me at JCrew and was able to hold a spot in line for me to see Jenna (how sweet he is huh?).  DH said the event was packed and the managers of the event were kind enough to let him wait on line for me.

I got there after the Cocktails closed and everything was calm…Jenna was beautiful, I meet her while she was talking with another 2 JCrew party goers. I was so shy…lol My DH introduced me saying, “there she is, ladies…that’s my wife Andrea…” (I was RED in the face). lol

Everybody was very nice and Jenna…oh my, she is cool!

My DH introduced me to her and we had some nice short conversations about fashion and our children. I gave her my blog info so she can check out what I do. She is very down to earth, cool, gentle, beautiful and tall.

Jenna Lyons & me
She was so cool that she kneeled down a bit when my DH took a picture for me. She didn’t want me to look “short” on the picture.
Very sweet of her!
It was great, I was so nervous. You can probably see it in my face. lol.

After event the streets were calm and good for pictures

Because of the rush I was feeling, I couldn’t see anything to well after that because I was very excited about the whole thing and ready to go eat (I was starved!), but I checked out 3 items that I will share with everyone.

Dinner time me & DH at Bistro Les Amis

My DH also introduced me to J.Crew”s CEO Millard "Mickey" S. Drexler. 

I must say he also was very down to earth and easy to speak to. He told me he turned down taking a picture with vogue but if I promise not to publish he’d take a picture with me.

 Soooo because I promised and gave him my word not to put our pic on in my blog…that one will be for my album only…sorry everyone L.

To finish my fave dessert "Crème brûlée" (I shouln't and we share!) with a cappuccino, YUMY!

Now is time to go home...

I had to let this limo go on its way because...

I decided to go by train...KKKK

Hope you all enjoy my pics and poses…I had funJ

Thank you to my sweet  DH!

PS: In the end, all I have to say about Alecia Peep toes is that its very comfortable and it passed on the city test! I came back home on it with no pain…maybe because of those ankle socks? Who knows?

HAPPY MONDAY!

Fashion Night Out-Fitting Room

This is what I've tried at the fitting room on the Fashion Night Out :

Amelia platform ankle boots

$350.00

These boots are beautiful and very comfortable.

I'll say it is TTS to a little bit bigger.

I couldn't resist trying this baby on after seening the PS wearing  it with a nice Mustard pencil skirt and green military ankle socks. She was gorgeous.

Looks high, but it is not too bad and it is comfy to walk in.

Novo-stripe wrap top

$98.00 $49.00 in-store

Oh boy...I wish this could have worked for me.

Size 2, fits well at the body but it is not for "busty" gals like me :-(

Plaid boyfriend cardigan

$88.00

Size small

Gurly and totally cute!

Love it.

Sorry I didn't have a top to try this cardigan open...

Wow, I didn't take anything home last Friday :-(

That's all I could see last Friday night...

Anyone own some of those pieces?

Happy Monday!

Quick post - Bronzed Bubble Skirt - IRL - Need help!

Hello everyone,

I need some help:-)

I want to meet my DH in the city for a date, but before I will stop by J.Crew for the :

I'm not sure if I pick the right outfit, but in case I did...

Should I go with flat oxfords or high heels shoes?

I took a picture with both shirts in denim I own..

First shirt:

Denim shirt, NY & Company

Bronzed Bubble skirt, J.crew

Oxfords, Steve Madden

Alecia suede platform peep toes, J.crew

Second shirt:

Chambray popover, J.crew

Bronzed bubble skirt, J.crew

Oxfords, Steve Madden

Alecia suede platform peep toes, J.crew

I picked the Dangling pearl necklace, Jcrew and matching earrings for jewelry ...any suggestions is much appreciate:-)

About the skirt: it's very well made and cute. 

TTS, but very short! 

This is the "mini" of the minis skirts I own, cannot say "I ever" owned though...and once it is my last purchased FS I thought...well, I guess I must to wear it now! lol

I don't know if I should (shhhh...I'm in the 40's house now), and before someone says "hey lady, this skirt is not allow for you anymore..." let me wear it at least one great time!

DH love it so...let's do it!

Thanks for your help!

Have a fabulous Fashion's Friday!
