The Limited has a lot of sales, but this is a really great sitewide sale — $30 off Every $50 You Spend (using code TREATS). This offer includes all Eva Longoria Collection Items + New Arrivals + All Sale Items! Note that you can get free shipping if you spend $125, but you can also reserve items for in-store pickup — even online exclusives! Another important note — the sale details change every day, so these prices are good only for Thursday, October 27. I thought I'd round up some of my favorites from the sale, but ladies, let's hear from you — have you gotten anything great at The Limited lately?
(Pictured at top, some of their top looks — grid dress / blue sweater / purple top & skirt.)
This houndstooth sheath dress would be great for a woman most comfortable with neutrals like black and gray — it's a very safe way to dip your toe into the water of prints. Add more neutrals to keep it very traditional, or have fun mixing more patterns with it, like a floral scarf or a striped (or heavily ribbed) cardigan (ooh, or the polka dot lining of one of their Madison blazers, maybe in light pink or dark purple). It's $99 full price so you can take $30 off — if you spend just a little more you get $60 off. (If you're looking for small items to add to your cart, consider this jewelry fixing kit, these 120 dernier tights, or these socks.) The dress is available exclusively online in regular and petite sizes 0-18. Houndstooth Sheath Dress
I feel like I just saw another very similar skirt for about three or four times the price that had the same tie detail — I love it because it feels fresh and now, but still traditional and classic. I like that this one is machine wash tumble dry, and available in black and teal sizes 0-14. The skirt was $80 full price, but with the sale you can take $30 off. Front Tie Midi Skirt
Every time I happen to be in a Limited I stop and ogle the Madison blazers — they come in so many fun colors, all with a fun lining on the cuffs and collar. This black speckled blazer with a floral (lacy?) print is particularly fabulous. The blazer was originally $120, but with the sale you can take $60 off — bringing it down to $60. It's available in regular and petite sizes XS-XXL. Patterned Madison Blazer
This red dress also comes in black, but I kind of like the vintage ruffle details best on the red. Curvy/hourglassy reviewers seemed to particularly like the dress, and I like that it's machine washable. It's available in regular and petite sizes 0-18 — it's an online exclusive but can be reserved online to be ready at the store. It's $149 full price; with the sale you can take $60 off ($90 if you spend just a bit more). Eva Longoria Ruffled Dress
Of course, if we're talking about real value, you can't talk about The Limited without talking about some of their best selling basics. Their suiting collections are great (particularly if you're a petite or a tall, but everyone can benefit from the zillion different pants fits), their “perfect” t-shirts, and their washable “exact stretch” pants and skirts are always great.

Those “perfect” t-shirts look great! I’ll be placing an order tonight!
Ooh i might get some too. I need more of those simple comfy shirts. These selections look pretty good overall!
I had a couple several years ago and they really were perfect.
Do you know how the sizing was? I usually wear a S in Ann Taylor, would it be the same here?
I don’t remember on the shirts specifically. Their sweaters sometimes run a little small.
If I stare at that houndstooth dress for too long I’ll probably get a migraine. Wow.
This. I don’t like any of those clothes except for the simple basics you can get anywhere. The dress hurts my eyes!
I’m not one for sponsored posts, but I just ordered $310 worth of boring work blazers and pants and paid $120, so good sale…
Tried the black speckled blazer on in store, couldn’t get over the fact that it looked like I was in desperate need of a lent roller

I buy my work clothes almost exclusively from the limited and backroom at the limited and never pay full price for anything. It is one of my favorite stores and I love that their clothes come in all sizes and shapes!
What’s backroom at the limited? Is that their version of outlet/factory?
Yes. Some of the stores were converted recently-Some carry the exact same clothes as the actual store!
Whoa… my local Limited is apparently now a Backroom. I need to go investigate this!
I was wondering about this. Interesting.
I got a couple things from The Limited recently. The soft ribbed cardigan in purple is a great color and super comfy. It didn’t hold its shape perfectly when I washed it, but I’m still happy with it for the price.
I also ordered the Pleated Peplum Shell in Merlot Red. I wasn’t sure how flattering it would be, but I thought it was fun. I carry my weight in my stomach and chest and it was too tight around my stomach. If it had fit though, I thought it was cute and would have kept it.
I normally love The Limited but the fit has been majorly off in my last couple of orders. I hope it’s just an anomaly, because I like their style and prices.
Seconded–ordered a pencil and its way tight, and they usually run big.
If your boss, or at least someone senior to you goes to get coffee and asks you if you want anything, is it rude to ask them to get you a coffee?
I don’t know. It depends on how close all of you are. Will you have an opportunity to return the favor?
Yes, probably. Or something similar. Also this would be on the company card basically
I’d say it’s fine to ask for something simple but definitely no “half caf two shots of hazlenut syrup soy latte and not too hot and small but in a big cup” nonsense.
I think it’s fine if they ask. Agree with SA to try to keep the order simple.
If someone offers, it’s not rude to accept. But agree to keep the order simple and small.
The manageing partner often goes out for coffee, and gets me one. By the same to’ken, I go out for Danish or Crumb’s and bring him back one even if he does NOT ask me to do so. He ALWAYS is very gratful for me bringeing it for him, and he eat’s it always, except when he bring’s it home for Margie and the baby. We have a very good PROFESIONAL RELATIONSHIP, so do NOT worry about it! YAY!!!
This is a little late, but hopefully some plus size people will find it…
Avenue is having a huge sale today, with a bunch of stuff 30-50% off, and some riding boots and booties just $50.
I found a coupon code (AVSHOP40) which is combinable with the sale, and got another 40% knocked off. I ended up getting about $500 worth of stuff for $193.
I used to HATE Avenue–everything was tie dyed and bedzazzled–but I found some really cute things for casual days and for business casual visits, AND got an anorak that was $100 for $30.
Ugh. I just bought a blazer a few days ago. I’m hoping they’ll give me a partial refund!
Did you pay with a CC? Many CC’s have price protection.

I did. I’ll have to check that out. Thanks!
