Style File Find of the Week: LaRok Patchwork Flirt Dress

photo cred: Nordstrom

Well let me start off by saying, I have a small addiction ( 3 sequined dressed, 1 sequined tank top, 1 sequined shirt, 2 pair of sequin shoes, and 1 sequined bag) to all things sequined and 2007’s sequined trend didn’t help me one bit. I for one think sequins are timeless, and of course add a little pizazz to any plain shaped frock or tee. So you can imagine what I felt when I was doing some online window shopping at Nordstrom and came across the LaROK Patchwork Flirt Dress. I swear I nearly fainted it’s so gorgeous, although I’m not sold on the empire waist ( my cup runeth over) the racer back accented by a zipper and 70’s inspired patches of sequins has me looking around for the 298 dollars to buy it. The dress is available in grey and black and you can order online, or visit the Savvy section of your local Nordstrom’s.

Shoptalk: Nordstrom Buy Online Pick Up in Store

Oh my God, this has to be the best thing to happen to online shopping in a long long time. Electronic Stores like Best Buy and Circuit City have been doing it for a while and now the store with the best return policy on the planet Nordstrom is joining them with the Buy Online Pick Up in Store option. Bad news is they are still in the testing phase and the service is only available in certain departments, good news is it’s available in the only departments that matter anyway ( sorry men) Women’s Shoes; Beauty and Fragrance; savvy; Individualist; t.b.d; and Encore. Now you never have to worry about going to a store not finding your size or fighting with a fellow customer during the women’s half yearly sale. I don’t think this is going to eliminate picking up more items you don’t need on your trip to the store, but it will make a part of your shopping experience more convenient, Happy Shopping!
