Summer of Dresses

Once upon a time I mentioned (err, maybe proclaimed) that I was going to embrace my so very not tan skin this year. So far I haven't been doing a very good job! But I'm working on it. After a wee bit of color (seriously, it's going to happen. I just know it) I'll be busting out every dress in my closet. But I should, of course, add just a few more to the mix. Here are some lovely little numbers up for grabs in the latest Gilt Groupe sale. Enjoy!

Ok, so this last one isn't a dress. Even better, it's a romper!

This Week's Gilt

All of these e-mails from the Gilt Groupe makes it hard for a girl to have restraint. 60% off a super sweet bag or some great dress? Sorry, I gotta pass it up. Save, save, save. So instead, this is my virtual window shopping.

Here's what I'm lusting after from the latest Gilt Groupe sale:

Tucker

Geren Ford

Alice + Olivia

Alexander McQueen

And for the home

Feeling Giltey

Are you a member of the Gilt Groupe? No? Why not? Maybe you like paying full price for Marc Jacobs and Stella McCartney? Ok, good for you.

If you are like me and you really like (ok, LOVE) fashion and other fabulous things but you aren't quite raking in a six-figure salary to be able to pay full price, you should really become a member of the Gilt Groupe.

What is the Gilt Groupe, you ask? It's an invite-only (ok, that makes me sound pretentious. Trust me, I'm not that cool) on-line shop that sells luxury brand items at a ridiculous price (like 70% off!). BUT - the sales only last for 36 hours so you have to be quick before your coveted items sells out!

Here are my picks for sales ending very soon.
