In Linea 1369255321.627 Right - I've been known to go with a quick fix now and again - just make sure the marker is the permanent one - not the washable kind. Wouldn't want that nice black marker ink running on to either the bamboo or the bush! Also, I wrote up in my review, that when I sized to have it fit in the bust and shoulders (especially since there is no stretch in this garment) it was way too big on the bottom. I took a good 4 inches total off from the bottom which now buttons nicely all the way down nd doesn't stick out like a duck's tail in back. I took that amount out on the side seams tapering it up...

I found that with the panther link watch I had to remove both extra links for the watch to sit securely on top of my wrist where I like it. Hoping that if I remove both links on this one it will sit on top of the wrist. I noticed that Sandra had the watch on when hosting and that the face hung down under her wrist. I really don't like that look or the feel of it. I like to surreptitiously check my watch in long meetings or long conversations with just the slightest movement of the wrist so as to b...

Items from the same show I purchased later on have already arrived but I'm still drumming my fingers on the jacket.

You sound like my husband who writes and edits standardized tests used by states across the country. When he comes home from work I jokingly tell him, and he accepts it in the same humorous vein, to turn his editing radar down. I taught college English myself and admit to having detested grammar ;) but confined myself determinedly - and stuck with it over the years - to only correcting my students' grammar. I love a joke and a play on words and everything in WNYgal's writing, syntax and content t... Continue Reading In Linea 1368923768.68 I've been feeling conflicted about the feather jersey reading the various reviews here pro and con. I ordered one item in it which won't arrive til later next week - a dolman sleeve top. It may turn out to be fine and I'll review it when it comes but here's what I wish: I wish that Louis had had time to try this fabric out on us more before committing to such an extensive line of it for on line only. With the whisper knit there was assured success since such a large majority of us already knew that we loved it and it had gone through the test of time with us including wearing in various se...

I would send the darn thing back. As a 2X I'm really, really sensitive that a jacket fit me properly. My problem is usually the bust. I have to order up, sometimes to a 3x, when the sweep around the hips is plenty ample for me in the 2X. I find that very annoying but have learned fairly well how to play that game. That said, having the jacket too small around the bottom would drive me crazy! I don't mind just wearing a jacket or a sweater with one button d...

THE COWL NECK TOP WILL BE POSTED ON THE SITE BY LATE MONDAY OR EARLY TUESDAY!……."

The Q gets away with a variety of "practices" because we all just remain largely silent and take it. Continue Reading In Linea 1368562346.777 Lyn08 The boho is extremely forgiving. I find I can wear my "normal" size and in a pinch have ordered up a size and taken the waist elastic in and in a pinch I've gone down a size. I too do not like a tight elastic on my waist. That said, I think you could get away with a small pretty easily. The elastic has a nice comfortable stretch to it. I'm sorry that I probably answered this too late to help you. It looks like the white and the navy are both sold out in your size(s). Continue Reading
