I just bought my first steven alan shirt (the boyfriend in grey dobby)! I just want to say thanks for having a great review of the fit and styles. Truly helped with my selection :)
Really tempted, but alas the reverse seam shirts in my sizes were out (well, my wallet is thanking me). On the other hand, I got a dress shirt from the Theory sale (as I realized I had too many Steven Alan shirts and very few shirts appropriate for work, I guess my style is in transition).
By the way, started the blog anew: http://stylebildungsroman.blogspot.com/
I really want to buy one of the Steve Alan jumpers, as they look to be the perfect fit, although didn't spot any in the sale. I've got my eye on a couple of chambray shirts on eBay which was my other wishlist item for the moment. Have to say it would be pretty easy to go crazy with that sample sale though!
Thanks for the heads up! With a few hours left, I picked up a reverse seam shirt, striped shirt, wool mini, and straight jeans. All filling holes in my wardrobe and I'm happy to do so with made in the USA pieces at excellent prices.

thanks Dottie :) do comment more often, and so happy that you found these sale gems!
DeleteI got a couple dresses. I find them to be the perfect teaching attire. Comfortable, but dressy/professional enough to look authoritative.
