*Reduced/Relist*: ESKELL SILK BLOUSE







Beautiful black graphic print on champagne colored silk. Young & modern but classic! Can be dressed up or down. Slightly cropped—pairs best with high-waist jeans or skirts. A true one-of-a-kind top. I removed the tags, but this blouse is absolutely *brand new/never worn*.

Length: 18.3" (from top of shoulder)
Armpit-to-armpit: 18.75" 
100% silk

Happy to answer any questions! Just email me at: LisforLauren(at)hotmail(dot)com.

SAMANTHA PLEET LEAF SHORTS / Size 8






These shorts are amazing! Brand new with tags! Just bought them last week. Unfortunately, they’re a little too tight for me and I can’t afford to keep them, but also can’t return them to the store … so my size mis-estimation is your gain! A great deal on the best piece from Samantha Pleet’s new spring/summer 2014 collection.

I paid: $141
Asking: $115
*FREE SHIPPING*

Fit note: Overlapping panels give these the cutest, upturned scallop edge at the leg opening. Very high-waist and flat pockets. Very flattering cut.

Sizing note: I think these run a bit small and would best fit someone who wears a 6/8. Exact measurements below.

DETAILS:
Deep black.
Hidden side zip and button closure.
85% cotton + 15% wool twill (but you would never guess it had any wool at all—the fabric just feels like a lightweight, smooth percale cotton).
Inseam: 14.5"
Rise: 12.5"
Waist (hits at high-waist): 14.5"
Photos: I'm including photo of the "earth brown" color, just because this pic gives a great sense of how these look on! But the shorts I'm selling are BLACK! Actual pair for sale are in last 2 pics.

Listing ends May 4.

Very happy to answer any questions. Just send me an email! Lisforlauren(at)hotmail(dot).com.

IN GOD WE TRUST "JADE SOFT ROMPER" / Large







Jade Soft Romper from Brooklyn label In God We Trust's 2013 Summer collection. Sold out everywhere in this size! Brand new/never worn! Tags removed. 

This is a SUPER-soft rayon shorts jumpsuit in a gorgeous bright green "jade." Contrast peachy-pink waistband and trim.
The cut is a super-flattering tap shape (but not super-short!), with double front pleats and angled pockets. The waistband is fitted at the natural waist with a great detail at the back, and the top is easy. Side hidden-snap and -zip closure. Notice the *adorable* snap buttons (they run up the side, under the pink trim) in pic #6.

FIT NOTE: This fits a bit blousier on top & smaller on the bottom (great for broad shoulders!). It's a really flattering drape. The only reason I'm selling this at all is that I have especially narrow shoulders & this top is cut for a slightly broader shouldered gal.
Otherwise, fits like a size 8 (a true 8, not a snug 8)—this is comfy & loose!

MEASUREMENTS:
Length: (from top of shoulder to hem of shorts) = 35"
Waist: (at pink waistband) = 16.24" across, lying flat
Chest: (at bottom of arm seem), measured across, lying flat = 20"

DETAILS:
100% rayon. 
Jade with blush combo.

Originally paid: $243
Asking: $110
Listing ends May 4.
Very happy to answer any questions! Just send me an email: Lisforlauren(at)hotmail(dot)com.

[SOLD] Ariana Bohling Bella Sandals







Beautiful hand-crafted braided flat leather sandal with adjustable ankle strap from Brooklyn-based shoemaker Ariana Bohling. These "Bella" sandals are sold out everywhere in this color/size. Handmade in Ariana's Brooklyn studio.

In GOOD condition. Worn a few times.


DETAILS: Leather soles. 0.5" wooden heels. Reinforced heels.

COLOR: Tan (this is a beautiful "caramel" color that's slightly lighter than the easier-to-find "Cognac" she makes),

SIZING:  US size 6. Length runs true to size. Half sizes should size down. This is a *slightly* narrow shoe: i.e., I'd fits narrow-to-medium just perfectly, but I wouldn't recommend for a very wide foot.


SOLD
