laugh out loud I had the baby in december, signed up for amazon shoes emails, got the 20% off code and went to town on a HUGE order... only sent back 2 pairs from that order... love my bandolinos, nine west, and the other brand that I can't think of off the top of my head Cool

I now have roughly 75% as many shoes as I had before, but they're all new. Big Grin
Donated so many pairs, sold a few, and still trying to sell the last 5 pairs, otherwise, they will be donated too..

You ever just stalk a pair of shoes... there's a pair of boots I want.. it's sold on 3 different websites.. I keep checking to see if the price changes or if better promo codes come out...

In my recent obsession with comfy pumps I'm not sure why I never considered them. I've worn them before and remembered thy were pretty comfy. The ones I wore we're patent tho, which are not as comfy.

If I like these I'm gonna get black leather! Do you have them in 6.5 or 7?
I have them in 7. I hope you like them! I think 6.5 for me is overall snug and I prefer 7 just because of foot expansion by the end of the day.

Actually I just think of checking amazon, start adding low priced shoes in the cart, add more shoes from suggestions. Checkout. Next day, lather, rinse, repeat. Until cycle breaks. Then I take a rest for a while. Until I think about it again. I have never watched items, I just browse and buy.

I haven't bought shoes in actual stores for a long time now. I rarely find anything I like available in my size and fits in my budget.

That's exactly how I build my shopping cart on amazon, I keep going from one suggestion to the next, then I read the reviews, go on to another, find out which one has it for less in my size.. but, I tend to leave the items for later and see if the price changes.. I haven't gone in store for shoes specifically in a while, but when I'm at kohls I'll browse, usually don't buy unless it's a great deal..

awww. that's a big difference between the medium and medium deep. medium deep will be too dark, it's close to the 4.

Yeah the 4 is just more yellow. Light medium or medium for you probably. You can see they're both darker than 3.

Saw some dresses in express that aren't on the site. I didn't try anything on tho!

I like the Pink & White Stripe Swim Tote. Not as much as the Orange & White Stripe Swim Tote because it does not have any pockets. So cute though...and no glitter! They packaged the bracelet with so much care. Great packaging if you are gifting it.

i only have the nude lace one, and i wore it during my bachy party which she planned. i don't think she'd appreciate that. laugh out loud
yes, big seafood meal. my role though is really just so that the bride is not bored since it'll be mostly groom's family there.

Ahhh. Your bad, you should have bought more of those Tongue

I love this dress. Pic doesn't do it justice. It's such a hot little dress.
Either you have linked this dress more than once or shared pics of it more than once, that's how I know how much you love it laugh out loud It does look quite cute and love that you can wear a regular bra with it!
Quote from kurips :
What do y'all think of wearing a tie? I kinda like it.....
I like it and remember it from the 80s, but think it's hard to do it right. It's the revamp of the women in "Men's wear" era and being someone that has taken on male- dominated jobs, instrument choices and careers...I don't think it speaks to my sexuality at all. IMO, it's more saying - the "Power Suit" can belong to a woman too...and that she can make it her own. I remember Janet Jackson doing this paired with a corset [blogspot.com] . Also, Paula Abdul in her opposites attract video but I can't seem to find it. I think if you wore a small tie with a fitted vest to break it up - it would look scholarly and I'd totally wear it to school those underbrats. laugh out loud
Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
... Got to decide if I want to reorder with the sale and coupon.
I like the ruffles on that dress. The skirt might be a little big for your petite frame. Maybe a thicker belt will define it more? Ooooh, another potential job for the obi-wan belts!

Quote from GoHeels :
...
Thanks for the feedback. I'll try an XS. I'd feel like I won the lottery, if I could get a peplum top that doesn't need to be altered. Stick Out Tongue
...
Hope it works for you! Express has the best executed peplums I've seen.
Quote from nerdicus :
does anyone know if you can complain to ebay about overcharged shipping fees?
I would ding like a mofo on the star part of the reviews. If it were a big-time seller, I'd consider giving a neutral, but if it were a small timer, I'd give pos feedback and say "Items great, shipped Xounce item unprotected in bag 1st Class for $6 when USPS charges $X Frown" or something like that. Acknowlege that the product was good, but you weren't pleased w/ shipping.

best mother's day gift ever! laugh out loud
Awesome! woot

kurpee, I'll trade your DS's trophy for the $158 ticket I just opened for DS running a red light. Annoyed Look what you have to look forward to. Enjoy those accomplishments.
Come mother's day you're handing it right back to him so he can pay it, right? Wink2
