I know I did a tiny double take on this one!

Then again, today I pulled out a bra-included halter top that I *love* and couldn't remember where I got this wonder. Checked the label, and sure enough: Gap Body. So I may need to give The Gap another chance! Can’t believe something that funky is from The Gap — I tend to think of them as so staid and conservative.

I just fell in love with the bright colors and the pretty quilting. I did notice in the product description something about an ID window, which I thought was kind of neat.

It's fantastic. It actually flips down and has a mirror, wallet slots and change purse already inside. I have this! It’s fantastic.

Already? Well drat. But as you say, the more grown up Rosanna pieces are wonderful, too. That little bake set just made me feel like I was seven all over again...in a good way. Congratulations on the daughter-to-be, Pencils! And I hope they mark that set down again soon. Oh no! Already? Well drat.

Wah! I'm pregnant with a daughter but I would have bought this and put it away for $27. Of course that would have guaranteed me a total tomboy. I'll check back, maybe they'll mark it down again. I have a bunch of Rosanna's products for adults: a tea set, a cake stand, etc., and they're very pretty. It’s not on sale anymore! Wah!

There's no time when smelling like gingerbread is a bad thing! I’ve seen that collection, Queen Bea, and often wished it were more readily available year round.

I think they usually do this around the holidays. Philosophy also has a “Good Man” collection that’s really fun–milk man, gingerbread man, and the muffin man.

I am looking for a shirt to wear out in the evening that has sleeves, similar to this design, but with a modern print and perhaps a lower v. Would be very interested if you come across something!
