Some cute new stuff for Spring and Summer at Land's End...

[lctippins]

I got my Spring Preview catalog yesterday and ordered a few basics for Summer today. They have some really cute shorts and t-shirts. as well as a few Hanna-esque things.

Got these shorts in denim and khaki:

Plus one plain (pink) and one striped (red nautical stripe) t-shirt:

And these shoes in Light Sand (only $15):

They have some cute print t-shirts, but I didn't get any:

And here's a sample of their Hanna-like things:

Hi, Lisa,

I agree that the catalog has some cute stuff. You can definitely see the Hanna influence. Also, don't forget to check the overstocks page on their website-- I just ordered two t-shirts and a swimsuit for DD from them.

Yes, I had a great time yesterday cruising through their catalog! Very cute stuff this time around! Plus, AG can now fit in the baby stuff and the little girl stuff so that suddenly gives me a lot more options. I love the terry floral one piece! Did you notice it?

[khakismom]

I saw that dress and loved it, same with the shirt too--very cute! I haven't gotten my catalog yet to see all the good stuff (online drives me nuts).

But I hadn't seen those cute shorts! I may have to check them out.

FYI, to the Lands' End fans out there...

I ordered a number of the new spring things for my
daughter in the 12-18m size yesterday on the internet
and a number of the items are backordered until Feb. 1st.
The new things are in such cute bright colors and patterns,
and I'm a big fan of their quality & reasonable prices.
And that was before I got the printed catalog today...

So, who knows when they had them in stock, but it is hard to
believe that just on the internet they already sold out the
first shipment, as they just got the pictures up 3-4 days ago...

Anyway, if you want things from this series I would recommend to
order them soon, so that you get them before they run out completely
which I have seen happen with popular items.

If things are backordered, they send them as soon as they are
available and you don't pay extra for the separate shipments.

The *same* thing happened with their new women's wide shoes. They were backordered for 6 weeks even before they went online or in the catalog. Huh? Something's a bit fishy, I think.

[khakismom]

When new things are "backordered", it usually means that they haven't even gotten their first shipment of it in. I wouldn't panic. These are brand new items that are just coming in late. :)

[lctippins]

That is my understanding as well. I'm not sure why they do that, but it doesn't matter to me in this situation since I don't need the clothes for a few months anyway.

I hadn't noticed the terry one-pieces, but you're right - they're adorable! I have decided to ditch the one-piece outfits starting this summer, though, since DD will be 2 and (hopefully) potty training early in the summer. I wish they'd had these last year. If you get one, make sure to post pics!

I agree that the new catalog has some SUPER cute stuff in it! I am going to place an order I think because I have been burned SO many times by LE selling out of items!
