jumpsuit: ebay(optarevintage), cardigan: target, shoes: kenneth cole
so i've been unbelievably sick since 3am sunday.. but i forced myself to come to work today.. it'd be quite nice if i could breathe out of my nose though.. :(
anyways this was my first clothing purchase from ebay.. i've always been a bit scared with ordering clothes online in general.. because i'm kind of a hard fit.. so i was more than ecstatic when it came in and fit quite nicely! you can't tell from the photos.. but there's some sequin detailing along the top.. which i thought made it festive enough to wear for new years... anyways i think it's fantastic.. too bad i can't really pull off wearing it very often.
hope everyone had an amazing weekend!
and to make dru happy.. here's what he calls a "better" photo of him surrounded by grrrrz
-yen, issa, dru
ps. if you're wondering where the beautiful roz is.. she's been busy traveling the world... but she'll be back soon. don't worry :)
looks great on you! i love jumpsuits but i'm always cursing when I need to go to the loo:) hope u feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteah, everyone is sick these days. i've been taking my eccinesea(however u spell it) religiously. haha
ReplyDeletei love that jumpsuit on u. it's a really hard look to pull off but u've done it well!
you def pulled off the jumpsuit. looks great!
ReplyDeleteCUTE! i like the gathers at the waist.
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting a jumpsuit for awhile, but am intimidated. You make it look so good!
ReplyDeleteHAPPY NEW YEAR ISA!! And a late Merry Christmas to you and a HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to you and your hubby as well!! (whew.. that was a LOT of delayed greetings eh??)
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I went on a holiday hiatus... and I can see that I have missed a LOT of your posts!!! I love your liquid leggings!!! This jumpsuit is SO CUTE too!!!
Issa, I hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the link. Much appreciated :) I had no idea I was your first *wink wink*
And you look soooooo cute in it, you should wear it everyday!
I love jumpsuits too, but whenever I lust over them at the shops, my friends make fun of me... Seeing you look so amazing, I think I should give in and get one!
ReplyDeleteOh, and I am sick too...
Lets get better really quick, ok?
i LOVE the jumper, that is adorable!
ReplyDeleteTo reply to you here lol. Yes I'm in Stonegate. So we're super close. What a small world. Hope you get better soon. I got a terrible cold mid-December and I'm still coughing occaisonally. I don't know what's going on.
ReplyDeleteCute jumpsuit btw. I once purchased a shirt from Ebay(hong kong) and I loved it.
wow, very pretty!
ReplyDeleteIssa, you are right on the trend with the jumpsuit and the sequin details! I love it! :)
ReplyDeletewow I love it!

I'm so glad it fit! I've only bought a few things on eBay, mostly accessories.
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon! x
I can't even tell you how incredible this looks... and the addition of the cardi only adds to the ultimate chicness.
ReplyDeleteClassy.
Effortless.
The perfect find.
Hope you're feeling better my dear, and get well soon!!!
ReplyDeleteLooking gorgeous with that J-suit, and the sequins are going to be a big trend so I was told in Spring, for day time not only for night.
All the best
xoxo
I have been seeing more and more j-suit... i think i might want one now.
ReplyDeletei love jumpsuits but i think i look horrible on them... :S
ReplyDeleteYou make it works with these pair of lovely sandals and your perfect body!!
xx
What a brilliant, brilliant find! I'm the same way about ebay- I've never actually bought anything but a hair straightner.
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon!
Hey issa!
ReplyDeleteSorry that you've been feeling sick. Love the jumpsuit, though. And is that your bedroom? The bed looks sooo lush. What do you do for work?

sadly i haven't been breathing through my nose either. especially when i wanna sleep or when i just wake up! but for a sick person you look very pretty (: cute jumpsuit you got there
ReplyDeleteI didn't feel brave, at first, either. Then I waited it out. Finally I couldn't take it (saw them on blogger, Hot Bot) and just had to order them for NYE. Luckily, the waiting was worth it. I saved over 30% on them, as they were on sale by this time! :)
ReplyDeleteYou always look so classic, chic and elegant. LOVE U.
xx
That's great for a first purchase. It's very modern as well. I hope you feel better soon, issa.
ReplyDeletexoxo
Amazing purchase! You look amazing in it. You could totally pull off wearing it often. I know differnet shoes and other different accesories could totally make it look different every time! =)
ReplyDeleteOKAY I am so heading towards the ebay site right now to see if there are anymroe jumpsuits as amazing as yours!!
ReplyDeleteI always thought I hated jumpsuits. You ROCKED this one, issa! You look totally damn great in it! And get well soon... I hate to have a stuffed nose.
ReplyDeleteOh you look amazing in that j suit girl! I'm looking for the perfect black jumpsuit myself but I'm very hard fit as well.
ReplyDeletei don't fancy jumpsuits cos... haha i'm too short, hence you know, i dont look good with it.
ReplyDeletebut you just look so amazing with it! and you're really pretty!
Cool jumpsuit!
ReplyDeleteAnd are sequins what I see in your cardigan? I love sequins haha I'd put them everywhere!

that jumpsuit looks so good on you! i have one jumpsuit (that i've worn only once) and all i remember was that it was an ordeal going to the bathroom lol.
ReplyDeletethe Kensie dress was from "old Macy's" at Galleria and i just got it this past weekend so they might still have it. it was secret sale b/c the sign said it was only 30% off, but rung up for 75% off!
aww thanks for leaving such a sweet comment :) it left a smile on my face!
ReplyDeletei've always been picky about jumpsuits. you, my dear, pull it off amazingly goddess-like. if only i could wear such a daring piece like you do!
xoxo,
La C.
only certain people can pull off jumpsuits...and that's YOU! lookin' good for '09 i see!
ReplyDeletewhat a great ebay find! i'm an ebay freak. i'm always on it searching and watching and bidding. kinda sad... haha
ReplyDeletecan't tell you how much i missed my daily dose of we were things. it's been too long, i have to say you are one of the few non-model women I've seen pulling off a jumpsuit,
ReplyDelete:P
LOL dru is the best! So is your sequins jacket in the last photo ;)
ReplyDeletelove the jumpsuit - it has this edge but still is classy!
ReplyDeleteGreat outfit, really.

ReplyDeleteBuying off the internet can be generaally scary but you've wagered well with this one. It looks beautiful on you. I also want to say a belated Happy 5th Anniversary to you and your hubby :)
ReplyDeleteI couldn't resist posting your pic on my blog. Hope you don't mind!
ReplyDeleteYou look great. I found one just like that but in a different color for $2 at a thrift shop but I had to re size it because it was too big.
ReplyDeleteI like it better without the jacket.
i love your jumpsuit! i have a hand me down one from my aunt, i'm trying to alter in a bit, will let you know how it turns out!
ReplyDeleteWow! I love that jumpsuit! you look gorgeous!
ReplyDeletei used to be weary of buying online, but now i love it. ebay's kind of a toss up, but the jumpsuit looks cute! it's on my list of items that need to be in my closet.
