CarmEmily » Gilt http://carmemily.com Carmen and Emily have been friends for a really long time, but they rarely get to see each other because they live so far apart. This causes them great sadness and so they have started this blog - which is somewhat odd because they are both quiet, introverted weirdos. They have decided to invite the world into their friendship and you are welcome to participate in this experience with them. (However, to shield themselves from this potentially uncomfortable exposure, they will continue to refer to themselves, and their blog, in the third person.)

I really love the structure of nearly all of the Donna Karan dresses, but this coat is a little confusing to me. Also, here are some nipples!

On Gilt Fuse’s upcoming sales calendar, Sequin claims to be “well-made, well-priced costume jewelry.” Somewhere in that phrase is an oxymoron…

new jeansAnd finally, I just bought these jeans! They were on special at Nordstrom’s although still quite pricey. I have been trying on various brands of skinny jeans, and they all make me look like I have the legs of a supermodel…just compressed, so they are disproportionately shorter and thicker. Then I accidentally tried on a pair that was “ankle-length” and viola! they fit. I am unconditionally against ankle-length pants, no matter how trendy they become, because the last thing I need to do is visually chop off even a few precious inches of my leg…but apparently, my leg ends where the average jeans-model’s ankle starts.
