Really? She mostly looks fine but I was wondering why she looks like someone just kidney punched her and she'd really like to sit down until the urge to puke passes.

Man I hope that when (if) I get that dress I get all the compliments. And I probably will not be able to sit in that thing. It looks tight!

The dress is fabulous. But I can't imagine dancing in those shoes. Of course I couldn't even walk in them.

I'll have to check out the pants at the Gap. But by the time I shortened them the wide leg would be all gone.

I was wondering something as I was driving home this evening (and hearing a report that clothing is expected to surpass computers in terms of online purchases this year).

How comfortable are you with buying clothing online? For me, I generally want to try items on before I buy them (ESPECIALLY shoes!). And many of the items shown in this thread would be definite "try on before you buy" items. I am curious to hear the feedback on this.

If I can buy online and return to a brick-and-mortar store, I definitely buy online. I much prefer to try things on in the privacy of my own home. Frankly I prefer to shop from the privacy of my own home, too, so as to avoid annoying comments from shop employees.

I prefer shopping on-line because I can do it anytime. With shoes, it is always a crap shoot anyways, so I always require the ability to return. Certain stores have a better selection of sizes on line (:cough:Anthropologie) and I don't get as frustrated. I find that I am doing about 80% of my apparel shopping on line lately.

I've never bought clothes online. Well, other than shoes. I've been wearing the model of Saucony running shoes for almost a decade and the same model of Rockports for just about as long so I can safely buy those online.

But never clothes. Of course, until a couple weeks ago it had been a few years since I had really shopped for clothes in a regular store either (generally it is "I'll take one of whatever shirt is closest to the door").

Edited to rephrase:

Stop being all "non-shopping blah blah blah" in this mindless self-indulgence thread.
