I'm here! I haven't been reading my blog roll lately but I happened to pop in on this post.

Roxy, definitely feel free to email me. I think the best thing you can do is to do what you are already doing --- be very careful, precise, and reasoned in all of the communications you have with RS. Imagine that the emails you send are all pieces of evidence, so make sure they reflect well on you. If RS emails you with something inaccurate, make sure you point out the inaccuracies and make the corrections via email. Keep records of all your communications with RS; take contemporaneous notes of phone calls, and consider sending emails either to yourself or to people you talk to at RS to memorialize those conversations. Consider doing the same with your fashion contacts if needed.

This may never advance beyond the discussions you are having, but if it goes into litigation/mediation/arbitration you want to have a nice clean record in your favor as much as possible.

If I had one wish that I could wish this holiday season, it would be for all the children of the world to join hands and sing together in the spirit of harmony and peace.

If I had two wishes that I could wish for this holiday season, the first would be for all the children of the world to join hands and sing in the spirit of harmony and peace... and the second would be for $30 million a month to be given to me, tax-free in a Swiss bank account.

You know, if I had three wishes that I could make this holiday season, first, of course, would be for all the children to get together and sing... the second would be for the $30 million every month to me... and the third would be for all encompassing power over every living thing in the entire universe.

And if I had four wishes that I could make this holiday season, first would be the crap about the kids.. second would be for the $30 million.. the third would be for all the power.. and the fourth would be to set aside one month each year for an extended 31-day orgasm, to be brought about slowly by Ryan Gosling and that other actor Hemsworth somebody, I can't think of his name, of course my lovely boyfriend could come, too. He's behind me 100% on this, I guarantee you.

Wait a minute, maybe that sex thing should be the first wish! So, if I made that the first wish, because, you know, it could all go boom tomorrow, and then what have you got? No, no... the kids singing would be great, that would be nice. No, no, who am I kidding! I mean, they're not gonna be able to get all those kids together! I mean, the logistics of the thing is impossible! It's more trouble than it's worth! So, we reorganize: here we go. First, the sex - we go with that; second, the money. No! We go with the power second, then the money, and then the kids.

Oh, wait, oh geez! I forgot about revenge against my enemies! Okay, revenge against all my enemies, they should die like pigs in Hell! That would be the fourth wish!

And of course, my fifth wish would be for all the children of the world to join hands and sing in the spirit of peace and harmony. Thank you, everybody.

Gosh, I love the Chromatique dress, both in general and on you. Why not let this one and the DVF one share a hanger? :)

I like the first or second designs! My boyfriend doesn't have a smart phone that needs docking so I don't need the third one :)

OMG, some of these are just adorable. I'll be keeping my eye on the road game cardigan and the pan pearl cardigan, for sure. Thanks for the reviews!

That prosecco dress is great! I'll have to try that on soon.

Second cut on the Cosmos jumpsuit - down to $50!

Thanks for adding the list of second cuts, too. Super-helpful.

Anyone have a blue pleated ponte dress in a Small? Or Medium?

Has anyone seen a blue pleated ponte dress around anywhere? I'm looking for a size small or medium (already have a large...just trying to save some money and avoid a tailor)!

Yesss, this is promising!
