Here is a youtuber who modeled both the camel and grey for the Vince Coatigan.





Camel - 12:08 timestamp
Grey - 16:00 timestamp

Loved all her picks here too!

She’s the one whose gonna try out the Bernando Spessa leather jacket soon too I love her her style is awesome and she’s gonna help me decide if I should get that jacket. I got the coat/cardigan in black in small I’m normally a medium and I am a bit worried it’ll be too big even then but I saw a small and had to try to get it. Still hasn’t shipped though. I would love to get it in beige but yeah the pilling comment does concern me I don’t think at 300 it should pill so if it does it’ll permanently stain my view of the brand. I don’t really intend to wash it much though because it’s just for outerwear and I feel like coats need less washing. But if it like starts pulling at the armpits or other friction base areas I’ll be annoyed.

also want to say I’m a huge fan of this forum specifically this thread because it is so fun to talk about shopping haha. However I have to admit it might not be the best for my spending addiction. Anyways…lol I wish there was a discord or something for just active herbal fashion chat that would be so cool. Maybe there is one and I’m missing it since I’m still pretty new.

I dont want to sound like a debbie downer about revitalash products, but just for everyone to be aware, I know the lash growth products can cause potential side effects (fat loss in the orbital bone area, darkening of eyelids). I used it for 6 months and my lashes got long, thick and so luscious after about 2-3 months, however some started curling in a funny, uncontrollable manner, and my eyelids got dark reddish purple (and my skin is quite fair). I ceased use because of this.

I'm not sure about the brow product, but I am curious if it would have similar side effects if used on the lash line?

I have fair skin as well, have used Revitabrow on lashes nightly for the past year (took a few months break to try Dime but have gone back to Revitabrow for a few months) and no skin darkening at all. I don't know that I have a lot of fat to begin with around my eyes, but looks fine to me, I don't apply to brows as I already have really full long brows. My lashes are more curly than they have ever been but a good side effect for me, I have very straight lashes (as well as straight hair) naturally. I would say my lashes just have more of a bend than they did before.

To be fair, my only issues with Dime are that it stings if it gets in the eyes but no lasting irritation, I don't think it works as well as Revitabrow does to grow lashes, and I don't like the brush applicator. It is cheaper, a clean beauty product, and better than using nothing. It's probably less likely to cause a skin color change if that was an issue for you.

Do you people actually own sweaters that don’t pill? Because I sure don’t, no matter how expensive they were. I have some Vince ones that are terrible. But I love the warmth and softness of cashmere and merino wool so I keep buying them anyway.

Me neither! Most of my sweaters have pilled, though none of my more expensive ones have but probably because I don’t wear them as often. The Vince coatigan is a splurge for me, as I don’t wear coats very often and haven’t spent that much on one in quite many years - I get hot easily and I live in SoCal.

Finally got all the items from Jul 14 orders with the exception of the missing Longchamp toiletry case and a few tops that's on back ordered. Returned a whole bunch today at the Rack and since they are doing additional 25% off clearance I ended up with a cashmere sweater and a silk blouse at really good price

Thanks for posting about this - I had no idea they were doing a clear the rack event this weekend! I just placed an order for a couple of jackets and some bedding!

I'm in SoCal too and the Vince coatigan is a splurge for me, as well, but I would like to have something lightweight but warm to wear on those cold mornings where it's actually like in the 40s and 50s here and I'm freezing in my car going to work lol.

That is very true! I dislike those cold mornings in the car. It takes me so long to get warm when Its that kind of morning, and my long drive to work doesn’t help.

My Longchamp toiletry cases arrived yesterday; I got black and bilberry thinking I could save one as a gift for my mom. I think I have an unhealthy obsession with cosmetic pouches as I always seem to buy one though I have several different kinds! I thinki I really wanted to add it to my collection. I already have Tumi for long trips and a few smaller LC cosmetic pouches. Did anyone else get one and how do you like it?

Do you think you will still gift one or keep both, lol?

How does it compare to Tumi?

My stuff is taking so darn long to arrive.... Im just twiddling my fingers while I wait lol. That being said, the rag n bone Dean wool coat is finally out for delivery today, so I'll post photos later for anyone whos interested.

I did receive my WAYF order over the weekend. I got the Clifton cutout long sleeve rib sweater dress, the Ariana turtleneck sweater dress and the Fairport ruffle v neck blouse in ivory. Both dresses are going back. I wanted to wear the turtleneck one to work, however the side slits go up super high and make it very NOT work appropriate. The Clifton dress was ok... Just didnt flatter me very well and I felt I was trying too hard to look 21 when in reality I am 31. The ruffle blouse is actually pretty cute! I heard a few people saying that it runs small, but I dont find that to be the case (I'm between a small and medium and got a small and it fits fine). It's cute and will look nice with high waisted skinny jeans and tall boots.

The remaining items I am still waiting on to either be shipped OR arrive at my house are:

* Franco Sarto Stevie Bootie
* Sofft Carrey Slide Sandals in new caramel and black
* Clare V tote in the deep green color
* Vince wool cardigan in camel
* NON anniversary sale, but found this morning for 70% off, plus I used $30 in notes... The Harris Wharf cocoon wool coat. Yes, I am still on a camel/neutral wool coat hunt... This one was only $148 after all was said and done so I will be very happy if it works out!

OK I really tried to love the Reiss but after getting most of the wrinkles out it’s just a no. The material isn’t worth even the sale price. I’ve included some shots of the coat and a close up of the flaws you can find throughout the material. I’ve i
also included shots of the Vince coat I menti a while back. I’m wearing the medium and jury is still out on this coat too.

Also wearing the AG jeans, Day Dreamer top, and Steve Madden sneaks.

Aw man, I was actually hoping you'd end up liking it! But yeah, I agree with everything you said (as you already know my views on the coat). It looks so good in the photos online, but in person it just falls REALLY flat.

Every sweater I’ve ever owned has eventually pilled whether it’s from LL Bean or Vince my Vince sweaters start looking raggedy after a few wears and considering what I paid for them it’s a disgrace I almost feel as if I’m better off just purchasing one season sweaters from H & M at a fraction of the price of a Vince sweater the quality of these pricey brands has deteriorated over the years

Just want to mention something I saw yesterday on Nordstrom’s website specifically their item reviews. As I was scrolling through looking at tops I saw one I had purchased (Zella peaceful wrap) and that it had only two stars. Now I don’t care what other people think if I like something but I was curious about the low score and I usually read reviews if I’m interested in something. There were three reviews of which two of them said my order was cancelled and I couldn’t get the top and gave it one star. I mean I understand being frustrated wanting something and having it get cancelled, we have pages of discussions on this thread alone. I just think that’s an issue for customer service but not a review.

100% agree those people annoy me. The review isn’t for your service to get the item unless it’s like just one company as a whole selling only their products then maybe because you won’t get any different results from that. However this is several different brands trying to sell a product and people look at the reviews for feedback on quality, wear and overall opinions on the item. It’s really annoying but I suppose we can’t do anything about it.

I ordered the Red and Bilberry when they popped up yesterday. The Red has already shipped! I love cosmetic pouches for travel and to pop in my purse. Are they made in France? My Green tote from the sale is made in France.

That’s my concern with Vince. Despite the high price, sometimes the quality isn’t there. And for my climate, I would be treating this as a coat and not a cardigan. Pilling in a coat looks rattier than on a sweater, and there are so many other coat options that don’t pill.
