Visionary

Happy Wednesday! Did you all score anything good from the anthro sale yesterday? The only thing on my wishlist that made it to sale was the Tuileries dress. Unfortunately, by the time I logged in to order it, my size was sold out online. I called customer service and the lady I spoke with informed me that yes, there were "lots of stores" with "plenty" of my size in stock. Because of that, I decided to do a charge send. I should have known better. Of course, when I logged into my account today, I saw that my order had been canceled. I called customer service, and was told that the dress was totally sold out in my size. So, I spent my lunch break calling random stores. It seems that CS is correct this time, my size is sold out (of course I didn't call all of the stores, but the 15 or so I did call did not have my size). Luckily, I found one store that had the dress available in a size smaller than my normal size. I have never tried this dress on, so I have no idea if this size will work for me, but it is on its way! Fingers crossed that it works!

This is an outfit from last week. I picked up the Visionary skirt on 2nd cut a couple of weeks ago. I am really digging pleats right now and the print on this skirt is perfect for spring/summer. I also really like the colors - I lot of different colors/combos will work well with this skirt.
