gilt-free shopping

ok, so that title's not really accurate, since i did feel a twinge of guilt when i hit "complete purchase" and also, since i was purchasing from gilt, it was more like gilt-y shopping...but whateve....let's ignore the cutesy title and get on with it. :)

so i finally made my first purchase from giltgroupe this week! i've tried before, but was thwarted. either i was too late to the sale and missed the good items entirely, or i was too indecisive and let my cart expire. not this time. for my first purchase, i ordered two ali ro silk tops. they are really pretty and i'm very pleased.

its hard to see in this picture, but what i love about this one, is the three hammered silk panels on the front. i love hammered silk for some reason....


the colors in this one are awesome. i think it will go with just about everything. both of these tops are so floaty and girly! can't wait to wear them. i officially heart ali ro.


i'm even happier with the service that i got from giltgroupe. i didn't really have any expectations, but they defintely exceeded them. they shipped the same day i placed my order, i received it two days later and it was very nicely packaged with tissue. the shirts even came on hangers. also, the pictures and descriptions of the shirts were super accurate. this is really important to me, being an online shopper, because that's all i have to go on. there's nothing worse than getting something that looks nothing like the picture.

these tops were 50% off and that's about the least amount off you see at gilt. usually its more. i must say, this will not be my last purchase from gilt and i totally recommend them!
