| L'Occitane on QVC |
| There is a notice on the QVC beauty page that L'Occitane will be featured at
midnight to 1 AM and then from 2 to 3 PM ET on Monday, November 22nd. Since
L'Occitane is featured at midnight, I believe this will mean that there is a

I bought a pair of gray suede Chanel "hiking" (hahaha) boots at the Saks Off
5th outlet the other day. (See/mock them at
www.cofarb.com/chanelshoes1.jpg) The original tagged price was an
incredibly obscene $644. The shoes are re |

| Buttons on a jacket done right? |
| Recently I had this jacket's button resewn because I could see that
the thread was loose and I was worried I would lose one of them.
So I take it to my dry cleaners and I told them specifically that they
should not sew the button tight to the fabric. |
| What I bought this weekend with your help |
| Incorporating all of your excellent fashion ideas, I went back to the
local BCBG, catalog in hand, to try on clothes.
It turns out that they actually have very little from the catalog left
in stock. Nevertheless, after trying on about 40(!) items, I |

| Fashion trends for glasses? |

retangular-shaped glasses were prevalent, but when I commented that they don't
look good on me, the saleswoman said that look was pretty much finished. She
told me that fashion wa |
| What I bought at the Lilly Pulitzer sale |
| I posted earlier about the Phila area Lilly sale.
Arrived Friday morning at 8:50. I was number 506 in line, but really

line about prior Lilly sales (this was my first), so the time p |

| Dior Nail Makeup |
| When I was at the salon yesterday, I saw in a magazine the most beautiful
color of Dior Nail Makeup. Coral is the best way to describe it; so smooth
and beautiful. I didn't see the name of it but the color stuck with me and

| Gel eye makeup remover? |
| Eons ago, I used to use the Lancome eye makeup remover. It was a gel
consistency, which I found easy to use. Unfortunately that went to a
liquid form which I don't like as well. I like being able to squirt a
blob of remover onto my finger and massag |

| First Sephora Trip |
| Holy cow... I have never seen so many females in one store at the same time.
What a sight to see! And what was funnier was the bunch of men were
standing outside the store leaning up against the mall railings.
I stayed for a bout 30 minutes, just walk |
