Marti's Closet Purge

 The story of THIS dress. So after Mayle closed, Jane did a collection for Gilt. It launched during Christmas and this went on sale online while I was on a hike on North Mountain in Phoenix. I kinda had a meltdown trying to buy it. Eventually I acquired it and I wore it often. That said it no longer looks tres Jolie on me.  It IS a gorgeous silk dress with back neck button closure, pockets, side zip, and so much lovely lace accents. It also fits small so please pay attention to the measurements: Bust: 36/Waist: 27/Hips: 40/ Length: 43. Also currently at the dry cleaner so once you buy it, you can wear it immediately.

 So I was super obsessed with the brand Mayle from 2000 to until about a few years ago. Its literally where I spent ALL my money for YEARS. It was in fact for a period of time, the only brand that I would wear.  Over the years things have come and gone from my closet. Jane relaunched the brand but I am kinda not into how insanely expensive it is and I feel like everything is so derivative of her old pieces. Also Katie Holmes wears it alot and I am kinda not into Katie Holmes at all, even if she did marry Tom Cruise for a better career and left him for Jamie Fox.  ANYWAY I never wear this sweater, which is insanely cozy -  its a green/black/yellow cardigan with puff sleeves, dual slip pockets at the waist and a shawl collar. button closures at center. A mix of Merino wool, Angora and Polyester. It's in EXCELLENT condition. It retailed for like $495 YEARS ago. But due to my obsessive compulsive behavior regarding the handling of my clothes you would never know its from the early 2000

 I waited in line for 40 minutes to buy this t-shirt when DM were here three years ago.  It shrunk as soon as I washed it. Again, I like a slightly larger rock t- so letting this go, along with the memory of waiting in line for 40 minutes. I think it was $50, so already your getting a great deal.  Bust 38/Length 28. Graphic print on the front, tour dates on the back.
