Sorry these aren't the greatest pictures. I've been observing GILT sales for awhile but never bit the bullet on a purchase until last week. I was somewhat skeptical of GILT & Ebates because I figured there has to be a catch. If there is, my ass hasn't figured it out yet! As far as GILT, $49 for J Brand jeans was just too good to pass up. My only complaint about these jeans, along with most, is that under my tush they ALWAYS pull and look ridiculous. *sigh*
I swear they fit. My legs are totally getting circulation in these pictures. So, what do y'all think? Should these jeans get put on Ebay or should I go ahead and get them hemmed with hope?
Next, I bought this comfy Juicy velour jacket. Before you judge, it's been nippy in the mornings on and I thought this would be ok over scrubs. And to be honest, I'm a jeans and tee-shirt kind of girl and will probably probably wear it a lot to the grocery store and other miscellaneous errands. It is soft, warm... ahhh, I hope I don't fall asleep on my commute to work.
And last, a sad day in the shoe department. I freakin' love shoes. Like, L-O-V-E shoes. When a 25% off coupon code popped up in my inbox from Piperlime I knew what I was going to purchase. Sam Edelman's Effie.
Well I got these babies in the mail today and within 2 minutes of wearing them realized they had to go. Most uncomfortable shoe I've tried on in a long time. Such a shame because after I ordered them, I spotted them in the new InStyle. Grrr. I had such great hopes for you Effie. You were going to look great with a little wool mini but noooooo, you had to be difficult.

I think the jeans look great but need to be hemmed a little or just wear tall shoes! Those shoes you ordered are really cool but if they are not comfy you probably wouldn't have worn them that much. Overall, I think you got some great buys!

The jeans and jacket are keepers! Glad those shoes didn't fit. You know how I felt about them.
ReplyDeleteOoh, that Juicy jacket looks so cozy! I am all about dressed up sweats!
ReplyDeleteAnd too bad about the wedges - I think a bunch of retailers are making wedges in that style this season though, so I think you'll be able to find a comfier replacement, but they are nice!
Ashley- That is the one thing I hate about designer jeans, beside the ridiculous price tag- always have to get them hemmed. But I do take them to a lady who keeps the original hem, which I like.
ReplyDeleteKatie, the shoes would have won you over.
Lisa, the jacket is as cozy as it looks. Love it! :)
oh, sometimes shoe shopping is such a process. I love the Juicy jacket, it looks really warm!
