So Susie confirms what I had initially been told--Mayle will have another, final collection for resort! It ships in December. I'm hoping this means a lot more reductions on Fall. It seems like the coats are flying out of stores, but the dresses are not, likely because the coats are a better investment and relatively a lot cheaper. I'll confirm this when I pop into Mayle on Monday.
So, no sign of my ebay package (which worries me a little as it was mailed from Manhattan on Wednesday). I ordered Ludovine and Aiko from Odessa, both in black, as my extensive web/store searching suggested I may not get either as cheap. I'm a huge fan of cardigans and coats and likely don't need that many more but with NYC weather, I wear them all the time and it means my older coats--like my beloved Mayle peacoat--will last longer as I can rotate them in and out.

i'm so glad you got both the ludovine and aiko! i was thinking about the aiko, but i have too many heavy cardigans like it already. and no to more coats. i would have to be nuts considering how many i already own.
i was all set to order the veva until matthew voiced his ambivalence about it. he and i don't always agree on my clothing purchases, but lately i've been feeling more anxious about striking out on my own.
grading is done for now! i've been taking the past 3 days 'off' to recover from the previous three weeks. hope all is well in academia-land, and otherwise...
i think i am going to go ahead and order ludovine, since i need a longer-length fall coat (well, i guess "need" is really a relative term) in addition to a heavier coat. i have lived on the east coast all my life (including a three-year stint in boston), and i still have yet to find a good winter coat!
erica, it doesn't seem like veva will sell out quickly, and maybe it will make it to 70% off. that might help your (and matthew's) ambivalence?
moya, let us know what you find out at the shop today!
Just so you know, Susie, Ludovine is beautiful but it is a really lightweight coat.
I have to get passport photos today and may not make it to Mayle after all. I have no idea where to go and googling places is useless. I am British and our passport photos are different from American ones, but the little machines we use are ubiquitous at home but invisible here. Time is of the essence if I am to get home for Christmas too. Hopefully, I can get them done at the UPS Store near Penn Station and then head over to Mayle.
