Re:
I know and I wrote to them and told them to not bother me again. besides I was disappointed that it was not made here or in the USA it makes sense to me that wwe forget high fashion to make reasonable priced items for little people like me who likes to be different when I walk down the street or wherever. I like comfort and my own style and i think corrage industies can produce just that.

Well it seems cheap enough to me, well Archie told me his wife had bought a pair of shoes on line and one could have had a gold crown for the price, in yer mouth of course.
I do most of my clothes shopping on the net but i have 20 or so coats that I cannot remember buying. The thing is do what makes you happy be it a mouse trap or lingerie.

It would be nice to see a North American manufacturing rebirth. Hopefully, we can achieve that.

Oh, boy! You are right about it not going too well. And yes, I would love to see more US and Canadian companies. For some reason we get many tomatoes from Canada here! I can't figure out why; California grows tomatoes. You outfit sounds fun and gorgeous, in spite of the taxes. Hope tomorrow is better, dear. Say hi to Wiley from me, please.

I'm with Taps. Never buy clothes online. To tell the truth, I have
almost zero fashion sense - I like sweatshirts, they're cozy and I can put a cardigan or vest over them to dress them up from strictly at-home to outside casual... And I go to stores like Target, and to the men's dept. They look about the same and women's sweatshirts cost at least 25% more than men's, same colors, fabrics, etc. I could afford the "better" ones, but what I save on clothes I can spend on chocolate.

There was something on Facebook recently showing what people ordered from China, compared to what they got. If your dress resembles the one you saw at all, you're doing well.

I'm not so great shopping on line. Half of the stuff I order is hanging in my closet or folded in a drawer and never worn. I remember the good old days when one would take about six things into a dressing room with mirrors all around and try them on and then leave the ones there that you couldn't stand looking at them in.
