Fall Shopping Thread

[canuk-gal]

HI:

I know, I know, it seems too early to buy for Fall...but I have been looking. What is on your wish list?

Bought this Prada dress:

Would love the Gucci halter wool dress or cap sleeve....

cheers--Sharon

I really want some calf height brown paddock type boots. Neutral cardigans. Black pants. Brown pants. I get Lucky Magazine so have been scouring them. Although my budget is lower than what they usually have, I can find good alternates. I really want a nice fitting but somewhat slouchy white button up. I like the boyfriend/tomboyish idea for office wear.

Sharon, great dress.

I''m searching for knee high black leather riding boots, flatish heel. And I have thin legs, so most boots look
hilarious on me. But I''m wanting these to wear with skinny jeans tucked in. And because I live in the swamps of
Texas (Houston) boots are not a priority footwear need, so I don''t want to spend a lot of money on a pr.
I''ve been searching all the sites, ordered 2 pr. from Zappos - they are going back. Hopefully will get to
Nordies this week.

HI:

I love riding boots--and I'll never replace my old RL boots. But you are right, they tend to berather wide at the calf. Have you looked at Gucci? Holts in Vancouver had lots of riding boot styles--and I believe a lot of brands had styles this season but sorry all the names but Gucci escapes me now....

cheers--Sharon

HI:

Ohhhhh great stuff RC! Very sweet dresses.....yum! Great finds!

Marc Jacobs is realy cool too--I kick myself for not buying his black wool pea coat a few years ago....

I maxed out on Dior Iconic mascara--am hoping they make more colors for the fall, but I just love how full/long it makes my lashes!

I picked up a small Bottega Venetta (brown) bag a few weeks ago....

cheers--Sharon

bebe what size are you?

7 1/2 narrow feet and legs, but I can usually get away with a medium width.

 

[UCLABelle]

I love this thread, and excited to add to it, but my all-time favorite store for many years, J.Crew released their fall line, and there is almost nothing that grabs my attention

I actually tend to vary. I shop at Macys some, Forever 21 is one of my favorites, JC Penny, Talbots, Gap, Target, TJ Maxx, Ann Taylor, Ann Taylor Loft, Express

We don''t have a ton of variety here, but those are my favs.

BEBE -blast, I wish I could get info back and forth to you, I have the perfect pair, and they are traditional riding boots. They don't fit my calves anymore

And are lightly used, I only showed for a year.

I''m still looking!! I ordered 2 pr. from Zappos and of course they are going right back. My legs are so thin, the boots look like fishing/wading boots on me. Hilarious!
I saw a Frye Back Zip riding boot and email Frye asking about the fit. I also ordered 2 more from Zappos. Maybe somewhere along the way, I''ll find a pair that works. I''m also wanting a vintage looking cowboy boot. That shouldn''t be too hard, as I live in Texas. (oops, the swamps, it''s so hot here!)

 

[dragonfly411]

bebe - try western outfitters for the western boots. Sigh, those tall boots would be perfection for you. They''re too tiny for my calves

I have to find some new dress clothes for fall eventually

 

[kama_s]

Cute dress, Sharon!

I bought this Marc by Marc Jacobs bag today (covered mostly by the cash my father gave me as a graduation + birthday gift). Also bought a pair of sunglasses by Marc Jacobs on a whim. Happy day for Kama

I love them. They are so soft and easy to carry. I''ve been eyeing a white hobo for a while, but I''m afraid of dirtying it.

[Miscka]

I love these threads! 3 recent fall purchases I have made:


This bag


the boots to end all boots

and


this nailpolish

I don''t have the bag or shoes yet, but I am really hoping the boots work out. I have pathetic weeny calfs (calves?) and high boots are always tough to find that don''t make me look ridiculous. I think it is because my shoe size is 10, so maybe the upper part gets bigger as the sizes go up? Anyway, crossing my fingers!!

The nailpolish is fab. Its navy/green/black and I gave myself a manicure Friday and it STILL looks great! I can hardly believe it, usually dark colors on me need a touch up on like day 2.

Love everyone''s finds! Keep em coming!

 

[kama_s]

Miscka, those boots are SO delicious! I have the opposite problem of you, it''s hard to fit my calves into the boots - I have to always make sure they''re zippered! Love the colour of your purse, purple is so hot again this season.
