I just posted in the Coco thread, but Opening Ceremony JUST got in a lot of the new spring AW line! They had those boots, the football clutch, and the quilted luggage Coco with silver studs, among others.

The luggage is SUCH a beautiful cognac-y color in real life - but one thing I noticed was that the handles were already showing patina from all the touching and fondling people were doing on the floor. Not sure if that will be an issue for anyone, but I still really loved it! Should have taken pictures the goodies, but I was too mesmerized!

I want the new Mirte boots, but OC has only a size 8 left. I wear a size 7-7.5 depending on how the sizing runs. I wonder if they run smaller since the toe comes to a point?
Does anyone know how AW shoe sizing runs? I've never owned a pair of AW shoes, only handbags. ShopBop sold out of this boot almost immediately. These are so cute!!!!

Opinions please on the AW Millie satchel. Something about the green really appeals to me.

I do love the color, it's kind of a greyish green that makes it very versatile... not sure if I'm loving the shape though, I might have to see more pictures with people holding it.

The silver/black Rocco is going strong too. The black/black studs doesn't seem to be doing as well.

I can't wait for the new spring line... I want these shoes!

anyone know where else may have this? ShopBop only has size 40 left...i'm probably a 39 or 39.5.

also, i'm really liking the luggage color - and i think it looks good with the silver studs!

ShopBop and Alexander Wang.com sold out within a few hours of going up for sale.
I ordered a size 37 from ShopBop early in the day and went back 30 minutes later to order the 38 i(n case the 37 do not fit), and the 38 were gone. AW sent out an email announcing them on their site around 3pm yesterday, and I grabbed the last 38 on their site. It looks like the only size they have left now is a 36.

I would keep an eye out for NAP, Barney's, Aloha Rag, La Garconne in the next few days. You could try calling some Barney stores.

Also, you keep checking the ShopBop site for returns. They say these fit true to size, but I wonder because the toe comes to a point. They may run narrow so that is why I went order the next size up. My ShopBop order shipped and I'm expecting them Friday. I'll let you know how they fit. I wear a true US size 7 M. If the shoe is narrow, I will size up and add a heel insert.
I knew I wanted this shoe the minute I saw them! They are so cute!!!!

This color appeals to me too. I was considering the Donna bag in this color.

ooo, please post pics once you receive it! I'm really curious to see the donna in luggage (since I don't really think the site represents it very well)

If you decide to get this, please post pics. I really like this fatigued green but am afraid it will be too washed out for my liking.
