    i shop from Delia's and Alloy ALL THE TIME. no, the quality is not great, but i love being able to buy trendy things that I know I won't want in a year, and not feel guilty! the prices are cheap, yes, but if you wait even just a couple of weeks after the catalogs come out, they tend to start putting things on sale online.


    also love cheapy sites like 15dollarstore.com and getheavenly.com. some seriously cheesy stuff there, but if you dig you can find great tops and dresses.

    my favorite part is that they don't just stick to one trend or genre. my hippie ass has always been able to find something i like that is affordable.

    I disagree about that mod polka dot dress, Dodai. Look at that thing. I have boobs, a C-Cup to be exact, and if you have boobs, it ain't gonna work. But if you are a svelte, sylph of a girl, more power!

    Plaid dress? WANT. Halter-top one-piece? WANT. It's when I get broke that I see the cutest things.

    That long white maxi dress in the second-to-last picture? WANT. I am a sucker for loose, flowy bohemian clothes.

    Man $50 for cheap cotton dresses seems pretty steep to me. They are cute enough. But, I bet I can find even cuter and less expensive (or better made) if I actually go out and about shopping.

    ...Which is something not in the budget at this time. :(

    I'll just say it. My 23rd birthday is in sixteen days. I sit here wearing jeans from Alloy. I fit into juniors sizes and grown-up clothes are too big, so these things are inevitable. Also doesn't hurt that without makeup, I look 15.

    Who remembers when the Delia's catalog was filled with models making insane exaggerated expressions against white backdrops? And the phrases on every page, with random capitalization for no reason, like:"tAKe a loNG WaLK oFF a shoRTS pIeR" for a feature on shorts?


    I remember this mainly b/c a friend of my mom's saw my copy, pointed at model Zoe Rothfuss and said "she's going to have premature wrinkles!"

    Me! I had completely forgotten about that. I think it was one of my first experiences both loving and hating something at the same time.

    I'm digging the Truck jeans. My problem with skinny jeans is teeny, tapered ankles. Levi's make a skinny jean with a perfectly straight leg (I think they're called "504's.") But they're so hard to find outside their website.

    @curioushair: DKNY Jeans have straight leg jeans that look like skinny jeans without the ankle-tapering, FYI. They're a recent find of mine :)

    By the way short girls--TopShop has 29" and 30" inseams and goes up to a size 12, and will probably fir you better than delias' junior sizes. If I couldn't order online from topshop I think I would give up on pants altogether.
