One of the great things about shopping online (besides pesky salespeople, not waiting in line) is the arrival on your order.  I would compare it to opening a gift whether at Christmas, birthday or any other milestone/holiday that calls for some sort of present.  The only difference is 1) you bought yourself and 2) you know what your getting.  The anticipation and build of waiting, though, can be almost euphoric as Christmas day.  Will it look as good in person?  Will it meet my expectations?

I wore this printed dress and tights to work and came home to a mark. package.  Naturally, I had to open it up.  I love how the fashion this season is so effortlessly cool and can be mixed and matched across magalogs.  Even a few years down the road, these classic staples (blazer, bag, heels) will continue to stay in rotation since they have such a timeless appeal.  Oh, and this little outfit took me less than 5 minutes to put together. 

All mark. items shown are now available at www.mymarkstore.com/aphan except bold items (will be available starting 3/23/12 for a limited time).
