I am blue, for in the past week I have 'purchased' two separate items from two different online stores, only to be told a few days later that the item was sold out, and hence unable to purchase them. Funnily enough, both items were 'blue'.
First item was a beautiful and elegant Tom Binns cuff I 'purchased' from Browns as a 30th birthday present for my sister E. It's her birthday today (Feliz Aniversario E!!!). I was so sad to hear I couldn't give her this present, as I was so excited about it, and was already picturing it with the gorgeous Vera Wang dress she'll be wearing at her masquerade party this Saturday:
The second item, I 'purchased' on Thursday, checked my credit card on the weekend and saw that the amount was deducted from my account, so thought it was smooth sailing this time. 4 days later, and I have just read my email, telling me they have sold out of these multicoloured Dries Van Noten sandals in my size, and whether I would like to purchase them in 2 sizes bigger (uhm...thanks, but...no thanks):

Oh well, I suppose it wasn't meant to be (but am still upset/angry/sad/frustrated)...
oi!!! puxa, que pena! é decepcionante mesmo... fico feliz que tenha gostado das suas férias aqui no rio... quem sabe na próxima, com mais tempo, não nos conhecemos?

ReplyDeletethe jewellery is gorgeous, just gorgeous, and i'm so sad that you didn't get it because it looks perfect. what a lovely colour, really, i don't wear much blue myself, but it has always been one of my favourite colours along with red. :)
ReplyDeleteand the shoes, well.... i can't believe they debited your account, but then they had sold out. that's incredibly bad manners! getting a bit ahead of yourself browns...
but they're so beautiful! i'm so saddened for you!

This is such a coincidence! I ordered both as well (the shoes in the green combo) and they deducted money. I emailed them constantly to find out when they were going to ship out my items. 2 weeks later they refund my money and apologize that both were sold out. I have never been so disappointed with Browns Fashion.
ReplyDeleteBummers! That happened to me while I shopped for Christmas presents from J. Crew. About a week after I placed my order, I got several emails on separate days to inform me that several items were unavailable. I was so disappointed. I ended up scrambling to figure out what alternate gifts I could get.
ReplyDeleteooohhh "pas de chance" :(
ReplyDeletei guess you are disappointed ...
I love the first belt! You are very stylish :)
ReplyDeletewhat a shame. those sandals were awesome.
