Those both are such literal copies of those tourist dresses/tops from Mexico, which all can be found on eBay in strange, unflattering sizes. And that dress from Foley and Corinna (from a few posts ago)...saw a vintage dress with almost the EXACT same fabric and print. Designers are so unoriginal.

I'm sorry, I appreciate what Yulz is saying but I've never seen a peasant blouse as beautiful as the Tory shirt.

i know. the tory version is better.

did you know that i got the j.crew top? my friend asked if i got if from mexico. it's not flattering either. i now have buyer's remorse. :-(

and coincidentally, that tory burch top, must be in the same "family" as the tory burch "madeira" dress, which was knocked off by forever 21. of course.

That J Crew top is so cute on the hanger, but isn't very flattering on the boobs, I don't think.

The J Crew thing I wanted that's totally gone now is the oatmeal-colored bell-sleeved coat.

Biba - Funny, I was thinking about linking the exact same dress from eBay :)
