Online Shopping Alert!

May 6, 2008 by WendyB

There’s a 30-percent-off sale at Neiman Marcus today. This Alexander McQueen gown would have been a nice choice for the Costume Institute Gala.

Today, it’s $5054, down from $7220. Of course, for that price you could get a great piece of Wendy Brandes Jewelry. Since you missed the gala, and I need your support more than McQueen does, I definitely think you should go with the jewelry.

    The colours are magnificent. Oh my! But, your jewels are much more practical. I mean, how many times could you ear that dress?

    I so want to make a rip-off of that dress and wear it around as a nightgown.

    hm to be honest: i don’t really like the design of the dress!

    but the colors are b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l!

    I like the dress. I’d wear it to the Renaissance Fair and maybe to see The Cure in concert. In fact it would be great to wear to outdoor festivals cause it could double as a blanket.

    And, WBJ won’t go out of style in five minutes, unlike that dress.

    Gorgeous! But I would so much rather buy several pieces of your unique and beautiful jewellery than one dress whose sleeves wipe the floor.

    i really resent the fact that you ALWAYS post beautiful pieces that i have no financial access to 🙁 I think my mother would be A LOT happier if i spent $5000 on your jewelry than a once off McQueen dress.
