Fabulous loot!! and those famous boots I see...:)

I would also love to see the yellow skirt with a black and white PB blouse!
sorry just obsessed with silk PB blouses right now;):)

It all looks fab on you. I love that sweater in 7/8! Also the yellow skirt and magenta blouse. I too purchased the peacock blue Joie blouse and am trying to decide if I should keep it. It looks beautiful on you, I think I prefer it tucked. If people feel heels are too high I recommend returning, that's my bias. Although Sofft shoes are comfortable as their name implies, they are still what I consider to be sitting shoes.

So I would keep it all except for the shoes unless you decide you can walk in them.

Debora, I can't believe how many of the same pieces you and I have for consideration! I've got all of 1/2 and like thew grey with yellow, but you have 3 different grey cardigan type tops! I think I like 7/8 best, but all look good. Have you tried Halogen knit jacket and tie top in 1/2 with the black Halogen skirt? I really liked that combo. The Joie top is fabulous on you and the color is fantastic paired with black. The black boots are also keepers. The black Sofft pumps look great on you but need to be comfortable to be keepers.

Ooooh, I love the mustard, plum, and grey combination! And that geometric pendant is on of my favorite NAS items.

Don't the Aquatalias feel as incredible as they look, Deb?

Your loot looks fabulous! Wow, wow, wow

Outfit #7 launched me into ORBIT - and now I need to recover from your sizzling style quotient in that outfit........*fanning myself*

Fabulous illustration of how these pieces all mix and match beautifully. I especially love the details on sweater in 7/8.

Atlantia

Love that sweater peplum jacket, especially with the knit bow top.

SkiDiva

LOVE the BCBG sweater in 7 and 8!

Sublime!
Personnally I don't care for No. 11, but the rest is SO nice, well proportioned and stylish!

Thanks for the great input!

Taylor, I love your suggestion of a black and white pussybow top! The jacket and skirt are shown with a blk/wht top is the catalog and it's a great look. Do you have a particular top in mind?

Denise, I would love to see how you style your top! I am going to try the Tsubo's that April and Una have before I make my final decision about the Sofft heels. You have a point that these might be sitting heels.

Joy, I love it that we bought a lot of the same pieces! Did you get the bow top in burgundy? I'm hoping the color works with the skirt and isn't too strong. I was also planning on wearing it with the other skirt like you suggested and also thought it would look good with jeans and the other cardigans (the boyfriend one is from last year).

Dresslover, I love that pendant, too, and also bought one for my daughter!

Angie, I just love it when you go into orbit! I'm so happy that you like the sweater - I was channeling Kristine! I think that the BCGB sweater is going to be one of my favorite NAS pieces and am also planning on wearing it with the pencil skirts and jeans.

Thanks jjsloane, Atlantia, Skydiva, and Kyle! I really appreciate your input!

Krishnidoux, thanks for your input on #11. I think I much prefer it tucked, too, after looking at the pictures.

it is all perfection! Are you open to keeping it all?

Debora

I don't know, Kim, there are a few more things that I have my eye on (one is your red dress)! I definitely am going to return the KUT jeans that I posted a few days ago. I still have to wear the boots around the house to make sure that they are going to comfortable. So many decisions... I did so much damage this year!

now that I look again, the bf cardi in grey isn't lighting my fire much. I like the other grey jackets/sweaters better.

Wow. All I can say is "wow". You are one incredibly stylish lady. Holy smokes. Everything looks incredible on you!

Everything looks great! I have this yellow skirt and also ordered the Halogen sweater jacket in magenta. I can understand why BCGB sweater is you favorite purchase: it looks wonderful. I was seriously considering it after seeing it on you but the price put me off: I cannot justify spending that much on a knit. I will enjoy it through you: please post your outfits with it!

Love everything! Let's us know what you keep!

Not a bad item in the bunch here. Great job! I especially like outfit #7. The proportions are lovely.

Briar

Great mixing of colors! You have inspired me on what to do with my magenta tops!

Between 1 & 2, I prefer the jacket open with the bow tie shirt.

Between 9 & 10, they both look really nice, so it's hard to pick one sweater over the other. Did you try the necklace in #7 with each of these? I'm interested to see how the necklace is #7 might give an edgier look over pearls.

Between 11 & 12, I prefer tucked, it shows off your figure nicely!

My favorite silhouette is #7. It's fabulous in every way!

I adore the colors in #1. I hated to pass on the yellow skirt but I was at my budget limit with my priority items. I think it's a great color to pair with colors like this berry or with dark green or blue! That jacket is really flattering, so I love it here and in #10. It seems like the kind of thing you can just throw on and elevate any outfit.

The boots are amazing. The BCBG cardi is so, so flattering with that cutaway front...I'm jealous!

I'm not sold on the turquoise blouse outfit. I prefer it tucked, by far. Could you add a wide black belt over the top of the skirt with the blouse tucked?

Debora, you look amazing. The BCBG sweater in 7 is my fave of the lot. Love it. What great detailing and drape on that baby! My least fave is the long BF cardi but only because it's slightly less than stellar next to the other grey sweaters. You look great in everything--I think you should keep it all : )

Debora

Veteran

You ladies are giving me some great ideas!

Kim, the BF cardigan is from last year. I just added it to show another silhouette with the pencil skirt..

Sarah, Debbie and Lisa, thanks for your kind words!

Sveta, I can't wait to see the magenta jacket!

Briar, I love your idea for the pendant! I know I am going to get a lot of use out of it.

Jeneva, great suggestion for the belt - thanks!

Kelly, thanks so much!

Excellent shopping! It all looks perfect. I especially love the BCBG sweater. I would like to steal that one for myself I think the Aquatalias are such a smart purchase too.

Deborah

Veteran

I have no suggestions as everything already looks perfect on you. I love the Mary Jane pump. If they are comfortable please keep, they look amazing. I also love the boots...i am inspired .... NAS for me next year!

Beth

Veteran

Good grief, Debora. You look amazing. After debate I actually returned my yellow seamed skirt; looking at you I'm thinking I should have kept it. Love the yellow/burgundy/gray combo. Brilliant!

Love the black boots with the yellow as well. They look like they fit perfectly and Aquatalia makes such nice boots:)

And the sweater jacket will be great worn dressy as shown or dressed down with denim.

You rock it, girl:)

You look gorgeous in everything! Chiming in with many others, I absolutely love that gray cardigan/jacket with the back detailing. It's a really fab piece. Everything looks great!

Manda

Your outfits are amazing Debora. I hope you decided to keep it all.

Oh, I am SWOONING with envy. All of this looks completely amazing on you. I hope you keep the shoes; I know those heels are a bit high, but the wow factor is definitely there!
