[SOLD] Uniform Studio Transition Wrap




Click here for an image of Martha wearing the wrap

This is hard. I love this wrap and the detail that Martha put into it, but I have never worn it. I believe that it is linen and will fit all sizes. The color is a bit lighter than the pictures make it out to be - beige with little streaks of blueish gray. Fairly lightweight, but perfect for keeping your shoulders warm.

Asking: $40 shipped

[SOLD]Brand new Silk Top with poet collar




Up for sale is my adorable cream colored silk top with ruffles on the front.
Back has a keyhole opening with a pearly white button.
Neck has a poet collar with ruffle.

Gap - Size M.

Never worn and brand new without tags.

I paid a good 69 $ a while ago online. Size is totally wrong on me.

It would look fab with a tweed skirt or a woolen skirt and a blazer.

Slightly shaped for a more feminine fit.

Asking 25$ . Shipped.

[SOLD] Sophomore Grey Button Up Dress, XS

CONGRATULATIONS, EMMA! enjoy!






Awesome Sophomore dress from fall/winter 2009. Grey medium weight cotton jersey, with functional buttons, the waistband goes all the way around and then buttons. It was sold out and I had my heart set on it and contacted Sophomore directly; they had 1 left in my size!
Worn 3 times, then I wore it to a wedding, got lots of compliments on it, and have had a hard time wearing it since for some reason (I tend to do this with pieces that I wear for a big occasion). Hopefully someone else can make a memory in this dress now.
The only thing that is slightly strange is that the seam on the left shoulder is a bit different looking than the one on the right- I don't know if they sold me the sample or what, but it isn't noticeable unless you are the owner. It doesn't affect the fit at all.
I would say it best fits a XS or S in size (26 waist), and the color is spot on in the second photo.

Paid: $220
Asking: ($70) NOW $45! plus shipping (happy to ship outside the US!)

Ends on October 4
Please leave your paypal email in your comment and your name, thanks.

Size: 36, or S, I am a 32-34B and would recommend it for someone of a similar size.

Ends on October 4th

[SOLD] Lutz and Patmos "The Most Camisole", XS

CONGRATULATIONS, SOPHIE! Enjoy!






I was given three of these luxurious camisoles as a gift last year (thanks family!) and while I wear the other two often, I have rarely worn this color, which is a darker blue-grey, as shown in the first 2 photos. It was purchased in NYC from Barneys.
I don't know if they are still producing this style as the only camisole they have available on their website is "The Perfect Camisole": http://www.lutzandpatmos.com/basics/the-perfect-camisole-basic-colors.html
It's a great basic piece to layer under sweaters in the fall winter months, as well as a stand-alone simple top for the warmer months. Extremely lightweight and soft, and beautifully made like all Lutz and Patmos products, simple luxury...

Size: XS, I wear either S or XS consistently
Materials: 70% silk, 30% cotton
Paid: $170+tax
Asking: $35+shipping (happy to ship outside the US!)
Ends on October 4th
Please leave your paypal email in your comment and your name, thanks.

j crew fleurette pencil skirt, size 2

j crew fleurette pencil skirt, size 2 (waist 26, hips 36)

from the website: "the perennially chic pencil skirt, in a lush hazy floral. (We found this fabric at an English studio renowned for the hand-painted designs that they engineer onto their textiles.) Made of a fine linen and silk faille blend in a slightly shorter length (21") just in time for hot summer days. So pretty belted with a chambray shirt or a simple tank and some sparkly chains. Linen/silk. Sits above waits. Back zip. Back vent. Fully lines. Dry clean."

I just (just!) purchased this from the j. crew site, on final sale. Paid $40 ($53 with tax and shipping). It came, and the size 2 isn't working. I've gained weight this summer, boo, and somehow, this isn't working on my tall frame. fSo, rather than wait to see if I can get back into this, I'm just going to sell. Breaks my heart that it doesn't it when I wanted it oh-so badly, but there's no point letting it sit in the closet and take up space.

This item is NEW, never worn, with tags, inspector card - heck, I'll even put it back in the plastic for you. Beware: this is a strict little skirt! If your waist or hips are over 26/36 respectively, this isn't going to fit. Trust me.

Asking: $40, including shipping to continental USA. Please don't forget to include email in the comments.

Ends: Sunday, October 3.
