    Belle,

    What’s your opinion on quality of clothing and customer service for Mango? I love their stuff but haven’t never bought anything from them. And I’ve seen mixed reviews online, especially for their customer service and return policy. Thanks!

    I picked up those Nadri hoops a couple of months ago. They go with everything; I love them.

The Find: Like a McCall’s Pattern
