Hello! Hope you all had a great weekend. I, unfortunately, spent the latter part of last week and this past weekend getting over a cold/cough thingy. Yuck.

So, did anyone score big at H&M this past weekend? Do TELL! (If you happen to have an extra pair of Jimmy Choos in a size 6 1/2 or 7….please send them my way.)

NEways. I wanted to let you know that the lovely Bel of And Stanley Makes Three is selling a sample bridal gown for a steal of a price – $400!!!

Here’s a little blurb by Bel about the gown:

This is a sample Venus dress in perfect condition (no rips, marks, tears, missing beads) other than a missing hook and eye clasp at the very top of the back of the dress. The dress has not been altered. I’m 5′9″ tall and would have had the dress hemmed only if I were wearing flats or low heels. The bust measurement would be 35-36″ approx (I’m 34″ and this is the only area of the dress I would have had taken in). The waist is 28-29″ and hips 36″ or so. It’s a bridal size 10 (dress size 6-8 I guess).

If you’re interested, please email Bel at bandb2010@gmail.com. She’s willing to negotiate but serious offers only please. For those of you in Canada, remember you won’t have to deal with any cross-border taxes/costs with this dress!

I’m sure everyone has their Gap/BR/Old Nave Get & Get coupon by now, but if you don’t, click here for the CDN version and click here for the US/CDN one.

Anyone braving the lines at H&M tomorrow?
