Browsing at Browns

June 23, 2009 by WendyB

I enjoy the Browns website, especially the sales section. If I were able to walk into the store right now, these are the pieces I would try on. Click the pictures for more information.

I can’t get enough blue leopard! (See yesterday’s post if you want to eBay some blue-leopard Lanvin.)

David Szeto dress

David Szeto, down to A£310 from A£515

I’m a fan of the patchwork look.

Etro, down to A£355.00 from A£700

Etro, down to A£355.00 from A£700

Purple is so flattering.

Balenciaga, A£480, down from A£1,195

Balenciaga, A£480, down from A£1,195

And you know I love my vintage Ossie Clark, but I would definitely give this dress from the new version of the line a try.

Ossie Clark, A£430 down from A£850

Ossie Clark, A£430, down from A£850

Another great dress shopping idea here!

    I won’t mention then that Browns is opposite my college! Can you imagine how hard that is – not popping in!

    I love Browns too but I browse the shoes more than anything else. Their shoe selection is out of this world.

    Oooh, Browns. And double oooh to that gorgeous leopard print dress. Mmmm, shame I’m not in a position to be spending 310 pounds of my hard earned cash on it 🙁

    Still, love it and leopard print in general 🙂

    Hope you’re having a great week too bella

    I saw a vintage patchwork dress on Etsy the other day and really had to resist buying it. It looked very APC/madras. So tempting.

    I adore the selection at Browns…so marvelous. Too bad it’s across the pond. I’m always skittish when it comes to buying expensive clothes online. I like to try them on first too.

    I have to say, the purple Balenciaga is my favorite. It seems rather MObama-ish to me, in the best way.

    I really like leapard print and always go for the coloured options! I have a red lep. scarf and a blue lep. Cardi…room for more things I think!

    I’m not usually drawn to patchwork, but I really like that dress. It looks a lot more sophisticated and not quite so cobbled-together like many patchwork pieces have. The cut looks like it would be pretty flattering, too.

  32. Lynette says

    June 24, 2009 at 1:53 am

    I’m so glad that all of these fashion Web sites exist for you to browse, WendyB. And that you find all sorts of fashion items to share with us. Otherwise I’d be woefully in the dark!
