If I had $300 to buy one item of clothing today I would buy.............. - Page 6

MerryPrankster · 01-17-2005, 12:28 PM

These might be a little "old skool", but I always wanted a pair of Ferragamos. I worked at a swanky shoe store in SF in the '80s and sold Ferragamos to the swanky "ladies that lunch" and the "urban professionals".

I think I could build a few swanky outfits around these, starting with the shoes. These would also be marvelous for a martini lunch!

Salvatore Ferragamo - Deco Skimmer $290.00

I'll put my change torwards some fresh cut flowers.

Tina....quit linking me to purses....I spend all my time on Coach and Dooney anymore!!!

Gayle--I love Ferragamos! My nine year old wears a women's size five, so it's always fun to take her to shoe sales, so she can try on deeply discounted Ferragamos (We're talking $50!). I live through her feet. I'm afraid to try them on. If I do, I'll have to purchase. And they're NOT $50.

Does your Nordstom carry Ferragamos? If so, do you find them at your Nordstrom outlet too? They don't seem to carry them online anymore. I need to start checking the "real life" sales, I wear a size 6. I do practically all my shopping online these days. I did not step ino a mall over the holidays.

I would like to point out that I was posting cashmere(and a gorgeous Pucci scarf)for TWO whole days!!

YOu know this thread is getting out of hand when you start saving items to wish lists all over the place so that you have tomorrow's $300 item picked out already!

*note to self back to clothing tomorrow

Absolutely! That's actually what I was referring to....Nordstrom Rack! She gets to try on Kate Spade pumps and Ferragamo slides and Donald Pliner wedges! I'm probably damaging her.....she'll end up a Carrie Bradshaw, but it's so much fun! She did get a pair of DP flat slides in the fall....hope she still fits in them by the spring....they're really cute!

Arrrgh! Get thee to Saks.com and check out this!

Totally adorable, and in heaps of different shades/styles. Plus, it's just under the $300 limit

Not Afraid · 01-17-2005, 02:29 PM

I'm going to go with something just for Spring (since it seems to be 82 degrees already).

The Jewelry - odd color for me, but it will look good with black and whites that I love. All three pieces for $115!

Then I'll buy this to top it off.

Oh, and IF I was going to go to one of those Ice Storm parties where you put your keys in a bowl, I'd buy this.

MickeyD · 01-17-2005, 02:47 PM

I'm in the mood for jewelry.

Today, I want this.

And I'll save the extra $125 for tomorrow.

I love that Banana Republic Top Coat! If you're getting it in Eggshell, I'll take the Saucy red!

Ummm...here's my outfit for the "Ice Storm" party:
