What did you order today?

My husband is wonderful but when it comes to ordering clothes for me he
asks me to do it for the cat. Yes, we are still trying to civilize her.
So anyway I sent him this neat J Crew link which he told me to order in
my size. I chose this color because I have a pale pink Lauren cotton
cableknit, and I really wanted something brighter.

Audrey, I tried to order some suede ankle boots from Silhouettes (because they
have all shoes/boots in large sizes) but they were completely sold out of all
colors. :(
Ordering gifts from Popcorn Factory to be shipped out as holiday gifts.

I hit the Norides on–line Half–Yearly.
Bobbi Brown Shimmer Eye Kohls
Clinique Naturally Glossy Mascara in Black
Womyn's Montana Jeans
7's Heffner Jeans
Caslon Black Cords
The only 2 things I KNOW I will keep are the Mascara and eye kohls. The pants
are all crap–shoot.

I ordered 6 pairs of shoes & boots from the Nordstrom sale. I awoke yesterday
to the email reminding me of the sale, and I quickly filled my cart with size
11's and pressed send. I will sort through them when they arrive – I think I
ordered 4 pairs of boots – 2 high, 2 low, 3 black and one tan, and 2 pairs of
shoes – pumps and something more casual....I can hardly remember, but I was in
a size 11 sale–buying frenzy!
When I tried to buy shoes in the store recently, the only 11's were $300 Donald
Pliner pumps that were too dressy & costly for daily use.
I also got 2 pairs for $16 and $24 from Newport News in 11's. The $16 pair was
a keeper (knockoffs of the JCrew loafers with the little leather tie) but the
other flats are going back. They smell bad!
So, if I can find one or two pairs in my Nordys haul, I'll be done shoe
shopping for the winter.

I am so envious, but I don't think I need more shoes. I know need isn't
always the reason to shop but ...
I just got a reminder call from a real person at Saks to tell me about
their triple points rewards sale this weekend. Competition is strong to
get our dollars.

I've had to stop picking on Montgomery Wards as my euphemism for

a mail–order company, believe it or not:

One advantage they have is great name recognition.

Children's gifts from Target.com and Amazon.com.
Shipping was horrendous, but I guess it's less expensive than a 200+ mile
round trip to the malls, not to mention having to find boxes and stand in
line at the post office for hours to ship the things myself.
I *think* all the gift buying is done, now.

Yesterday, the last of my holiday shopping–
backup order from Beauty.com with my Santa gift, the Too Faced shadow palette,
HC Lip Key to my Heart Gloss duo in Pixi
HC Lip Sorbet gloss (forget shade, just copying from order confirmation)
Heather

from gloss.com– two items I could not locate anywhere yesterday while out
shopping with friends–
Stila Meda Shy
MAC Jewel eye palette
Heather

yesterday actually ...
from D R Harris in London ... I have yet to manage to get to the
actual shop when in London ...
Old English Lavender Water – this is a replacement ... I wear it
with Cath Collins Lime & Lavender
Crystal Eye Gel – this is a replacement as well ...

English Bouquet – this is new to me ... it is rose, rose geranium &
orange blossom
Milk Cucumber & Roses which they say is there most famous product ...

From Overstock.com:
a couple of fashion–oriented gifts––cashmere sweater and scarf for TSMIM
a couple of non–fashion–oriented gifts––programmable thermostat for
TSMIM (am I thoughtful or what?) and a set of towels for my sister
a bottle of Hermes Caleche for myself.
Has anyone here ever ordered fragrances from Overstock.com? They have an
interesting selection, but I was wondering about freshness.

Yes, items are as pictured BUT I have stopped doing business with
overstock.com. A few months ago I bought a matress pad from them and what
they sent me was both a different brand and size (I needed a queen, they
sent a twin). When I complained, they told me I could send it back if I paid
both shipping AND a restocking fee. I refused to pay a restocking fee on
*their* fuckup and told them in no uncertain terms that I would not be doing
business with them again.
Just my 2c worth.

I can understand how you wouldn't buy from them again.
I don't need a watch, but was browsing their site for an additional gift (a
sporty watch) for my husband, and did look at the ladies watches just for
kicks.

Not a good recommendation.
I can also see why you wouldn't buy from overstock again. Hope my
experience is better. I just placed my first order with them for a watch
and a few books on Tuesday 11/30, and got an email from overstock
Wednesday 12/1 saying that they have shipped my order. I haven't
received the package, but I'm not concerned yet. I've heard that the
shipping can be a bit slow, but as long as it comes in the next few
weeks I'll be ok. Carol – I'll post when I do get the package and let
you know how the watch turned out.

I've always been pleased with the stuff I've ordered from them. I've
ordered children's clothes, books, and DVDs. The shipping isn't
fast––their shipping prices are incredibly low, so why would it be?––but
the stuff gets here eventually, and it's always a good buy.

I ordered from them last year and they were out of the item – so they sent
a very nice note and a much better item fir the same money.
They also said I could ship it back at their expense if I wasn't happy.

Replying to my own post here. The order came in the mail yesterday. The
watch was in perfect condition, exactly as it was on the web site. So, I
ordered on Tuesday 11/3, got the package on Monday 12/6. Not too bad,
will definitely be ordering from them again.

need to correct myself here– the TF shadow palette is NOT the gift for my
Santee. but I bought it too. :–)
And fyi, i've just sent beauty.com an email demanding to know why they have
that palette for 9.50 more than everyone else. Eveyone else is selling it for
18.50 and they're selling it for 28. Didn't realize it until I had already
ordered and went to look at a pic of it again.
Grrrr..they better credit me that.

Not fashion–related, but fun nonetheless.. a bunch of spices from
Penzey's! I ran out of their 4/S seasoned salt, and so I had to place
an order for about a dozen MORE things I want. It's almost as bad as
Sephora. You run out of a Stila lipstick or Rosebud Salve, and end up
placing a $200 order.
Speaking of that – when I was at one of the Sephoras in NYC, I
couldn't find the Rosebud Salve. Do the brick 'n mortars not carry
it? We were in a hurry and didn't want to be late for a play, so
maybe I just didn't look hard enough.

You may want to try there.
