I'm an 8 in cafe capris & Minnies...but a 10 pretty much everywhere else in the mall.

Thanks for your sweet comments today. I...Hi, all! Thanks for your sweet comments today. I do really like this outfit, and the tuxedo chinos are just a nice pair of pants. <br /><br />Kathy: I think it IS on sale. Highly recommend you buy the tee, it is very versatile and pretty. :)<br /><br />Pamela: The boden site is now updated for spring...oooooh, goodie! ;)<br /><br />Rachel: I hated J. Crew pants FOR THE LONGEST time, and then after I had CW I found that the pants fit better because I had lost weight in my thighs (of all places--weird right?). Now I have issues with their button-downs. The hem always hits at the very wrong spot on my hips. Grrr. E-mail me about Monday, if you can... :)<br /><br />Drewablank: You and HeidiG. are gonna have to fight over the sweeping ruffles top. And I want to watch. Please. :)<br /><br />Cloggsy: Please wear and look fab, as usual. You should post the look on your blog so we all can see. ;)<br /><br />Kristin: No worries. Sometimes I can't find my own posts. It is funny watching me hunt for my posts. It takes way too long, that's for sure. <br /><br />Summerilla: Yes, I think we like the same things, and maybe everything? JK. I think you and I have similar coloring, and even though you are a smaller build than me, we have a similar shape, which means we are going to be attracted to the same stuff, which is pretty cool...you are one of my J. Crew soul sisters. <br /><br />HeidiG.: There was no sizing up in these pants. I am an 8...except when I can squeak my way into a 6 because of vanity sizing. LOL. ;)<br /><br />Rosa (and Lola): Merci, my darlings.dinagideonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17892195449655319256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-60521053583916153442010-01-08T18:10:40.315-05:002010-01-08T18:10:40.315-05:00Lady, you make those Tuxedo Scout Chinos look good...Lady, you make those Tuxedo Scout Chinos look good!

Maybe I will on Monday...and btw, I think Summerilla's going to join up, too. And good to know you sized up in them, I tried my cafe capri size last time and they were looking pretty bad - maybe I need to go back to regular-pants size. But you know me, I'm always too lazy to go back and grab another size.<br /><br />Love today's outfit too - sequins are a fab way to perk up an at-home day for sure.HeidiGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17335791412412897005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-22381103472294625642010-01-08T15:00:06.661-05:002010-01-08T15:00:06.661-05:00Loving these outfits - especially the sequin cardi...Loving these outfits - especially the sequin cardigan. I had been wanting that forever, I swear we always love the same things. That or we both just love everything!! :) <br /><br />Rachel - I often have problems with JCrew pants too. We don't normally get along. I know for me if it's not the "city fit" I can't wear them. I'm envious of Mrs. Dina and how lovely she looks in everything Jcrew and Boden!Summerillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09103974633867486026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-43009865766387925592010-01-08T14:36:27.429-05:002010-01-08T14:36:27.429-05:00Going to get to all comments later, but Kristin, i...Going to get to all comments later, but Kristin, in my newest post (on the carly dress--just published), I included a link to where I reviewed the mini patent campo bag. :) HTH.dinagideonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17892195449655319256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680003314201998085.post-90768589152257799772010-01-08T13:29:33.357-05:002010-01-08T13:29:33.357-05:00I especially love the 2nd outfit - the pink is so ...I especially love the 2nd outfit - the pink is so pretty on you!

No use in being stuck in pj's, I say. ;)<br /><br />And the first outfit? Love! I stalked those scout chinos too and eventually got them at a B&M for $29.99 with an additional 20% off! So for practically nothing! Well, ok, for a only a little, eensy bit. I can't wait to wear them with the sweeping ruffles shirt - which I SWEAR will be mine!!!<br /><br />I hope you feel better, sweetie!

I love the cardi too. <br />There were quite a few of the chinos with tuxedo stripe at Tysons but I didn't try them - I am finding me and J. Crew pants aren't friends. :(<br />I was planning a trip over to the Tysons area today too - but can't seem to motivate.
