Hi everyone, loving the pictures! I played around with the zig zag dress. What do you think?

Cute, this is a great look!
 
Here are a couple of sweaters I managed to get photos in. (Please excuse the leggings, I was trying my new boots out as well.) I wish the second cardigan was longer. I've tried it on several times and never been 100% about it so I'm pretty sure it will end up going back. Wearing the men's sweater in a small. Surprisingly kinda like it, but again not in love. Trying to do the "would you have purchased if it weren't part of this collection" litmus test.

Talinder, I see what you mean about the cardi being a bit short, but I don't think it looks bad at all. Definitely workable, should you choose to keep it. ;) btw, I have to echo other posters' sentiments that the men's cardi looks good! I only saw an XL in the store so I had no reference point as to how it'd look on a woman. :p

Y'all are looking fab! :drinkup: Keep it up, ladies! :woohoo:
 
Talinder-- I brought that cardigan back this morning too. I wasn't 100% on it either.

FLWriterGirl, GORGEOUS!!

Im wearing the pumps today - the heel part is comfy, but they're a tab bit painful - I usually wear a 3.5 inch, and these are higher, so I think it's just me :laugh:

I'm planning on wearing my pumps for the first time tomorrow! How were your feet at the end of the day?
 
Could NOT believe September 13th!!!
Woke up early, was almost done checking out and then the Target site crashed!
Went to work so crestfallen...:tdown:
BUT DID MANAGE to get in the Target site in one of those few time windows that it was working!
Snagged some pieces: these arrived yesterday (and more to come hopefully!) - please see the attachments
The quality is awesome! The gold scarf is amazing - woven with gold threads.
I do own "real" Missoni and the Target versions do NOT disappoint! :graucho:

I got both the cardigan and that scarf as well, and love them both! The scarf feels really soft.

I haven't worn the cardi yet, just waiting for the right time! Haha.
 
Received two of the dresses I ordered and I could use some HONEST opinions.

When I first ordered the Maxi Dress, I ordered my normal size - a Large. But then I started hearing that a lot of the dresses ran large & since I'm such a shorty to begin with, I thought maybe I should try the Medium (maybe it would be shorter than the Lg). So this is the Medium Maxi Dress (the Lg hasn't shipped yet - don't know if it will).

I really like the dress, but I think I'd love it more w/the long cardigan it was shown with (which I ordered but haven't heard anything about). The dress is long, floor length, but if I wear heels it'll be fine (and even with flip flops or flats I think it'll be OK -- I've seen people wear maxi dresses longer than this one is on me)

I don't think it's too small -- I think the Large would be TOO big, but I wonder if it's too snug around my hips/bottom. I know it's meant to be a body hugging dress, but is this a good look for me? Does it just make me look fat/huge or does it look OK?

Like I said, I ordered the cardigan, but have no idea whether or not I'll ever get it. I found the hoodie sweater over the weekend -- do you think it looks OK w/this dress or do the colors clash or is the sweater too casual for the dress?

I also received the striped blue dress -- I went back & forth between this one and the purple one, but I think the purple one was a little too busy for me (stripes in every direction!). I really like the colors in this sweater and I think it looks better IRL than it looks in photos -- I dunno, what do you guys think?

This looks fantastic on you!
 
And I dunno -- this may be going out on a limb -- but what do you think of the hoodie with the striped dress? The colors are the same, but the stripes of the dress are more narrow than the sweater -- does that make it wearable or is it too much?

I just read about your frustrations in the other thread. Even though, I think this Maxi dress looks really nice on you :tup:. The size looks just right for you. I'm not really liking that cardigan with it, though. I hope the blue one comes thru for you. I too am waiting for that one.
 
Thanks all for the compliments about the sweater coat. I really do love it. I do think it is a little too big but when I actually "put it on" with an outfit I think it's not as obvious. So though I am still looking for an XS I'm no longer obsessing!!! (meaning refreshing the website every 3 seconds...)

I do wish you guys would stop posting modeling pics - it is making me want the things I missed even more!!!!:laugh: Everyone looks so good....

iluvmybags - so happy you finally got a few items from your shipment. I do like the maxi on you. Perfect length. It does look a little body-conscious but not in a bad way. I think since it is a sweater knit it works well. Agree the large could be too big for the same reason. If you are comfortable - go for it! I prefer the maxi on you over the second dress. I think the hoodie does look better with the second dress. I hope the first sweater comes in for you although you can rock the maxi as is or just with another sweater!
