They all bought and love, but now one of them has lost weight and Im not sure if "alterations" would suffice. Do you still have the size 10? Would you be willing to sell? If not...have any idea where I could find it?<br />Thanks!<br />tuckerelle@gmail.comAerialitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05585757081053761891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1485264816406368669.post-65351381638572315182010-02-26T14:30:05.777-05:002010-02-26T14:30:05.777-05:00Ooh the Hello Good Day dress is a lovely on you!

I like the pastel color palette of this dress more though, still have no idea where I would wear it :( The pattern sort of reminds me of kindergarten when we would melt wax crayons in heated pans and coat pieces of paper. Anyone know what I'm talking about? <br /><br />Re:Tracking<br />If you play around with the quantity of an item you can track inventory on most any online store, it's just super easy on the Anthro site (I do it the same way as Jacquelyn). I feel sorta iffy when I do it though, is it considered abuse of the site?Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08401347810054242917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1485264816406368669.post-20336411177600285612010-02-26T12:16:19.993-05:002010-02-26T12:16:19.993-05:00Too bad about the Chalk and Charcoal Skirt.

When one orore is sold you get a notice in your bag that says Out of Stock. Then go to the item and hit "update" next to the quantity and it will adjust the the new number in stock. I keep things in my bag like this so I can see when quantity is getting low and order accordingly. Does anyone else do this?jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00155568099007397724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1485264816406368669.post-34952354511071556312010-02-26T11:18:11.061-05:002010-02-26T11:18:11.061-05:00Anonymous @ 10:28 - you can't track inventory ...Anonymous @ 10:28 - you can't track inventory strictly, but you can see if there's at least 9 of an item in stock.

And totally just being honest about the dress - contradictory to popular belief, the stripes in this dress are really slimming on you :).<br /><br />Anon @ 9:58 - Ack, polyester??? Well, I understand that sentiment about polyester, because I typically say the same thing. However, I do have to say that I purchased the Midnight Wanderer dress on sale last month for $70. It was originally $288 and it is polyester, but the weight of the polyester + the cut make it one of the most flattering dresses I have EVER worn. And the makeup of the fabric makes it an easy dress to care for. Not sure I would have splurged the original $288 for it, though. But the print on the Cooling Magma dress really looks like something special.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07972392926332887457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1485264816406368669.post-88731498450906182782010-02-26T09:58:33.931-05:002010-02-26T09:58:33.931-05:00The Cooling Magma dress has a gorgeous print, but ...The Cooling Magma dress has a gorgeous print, but $258 for polyester fabric?

It just felt too full and maybe too young on me. Plus, where it sat on my waist made it seem short---and the fullness only accentuated this. I felt exposed. Now that I think about it, the seams did not match up on the skirt I had, either. But, it was not as egregious as the one you tried on. I agree that for an expensive skirt the seams should line up---it's one of the first things I notice on men's shirts and usually on skirts. Thanks for reminding me of this! I have been off on my game.<br /><br />Hey Roxy, quick question re: the Landing Field skirt: Since it's from the January catalog, do you think it has a decent shot at sale next week?<br /><br />Also, thanks for the review of the State Fair dress yesterday. I love it! It's on its way to me. I kept watching inventory online and it shrank by 50% in my size over the course of a week. I grabbed it while I could. It looks great on you!jacquelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00155568099007397724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1485264816406368669.post-54724782954782698762010-02-26T09:33:27.695-05:002010-02-26T09:33:27.695-05:00Sarah C -- thank you!

We just need dresses to accommodate them.<br /><br />Jinii - I used to think the $10 markdown was a good indicator but lately not as much. I'm not sure when this dress became available -- that would give me a better frame of reference. From the reviews it looks new so I'd say it's not likely to be on sale for at least another month.roxyturtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02175313932217919783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1485264816406368669.post-10909727181866926312010-02-26T09:27:11.139-05:002010-02-26T09:27:11.139-05:00Tahnk you so much for trying on the Hello Good Day...Tahnk you so much for trying on the Hello Good Day dress.
