There is no way I could ever fit in one. I have a strange longing for a smythe blazer after seeing them on Angie - and now you. Enjoy it and your fab outfit. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do to get your mojo back. I kinda did the same thing on Friday - got myself a new navy blazer, two pairs of jeans and a red purse - so maybe you're not the only one wishing you were participating in NAS </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/718-shopping-explosion-i-couldnt-take-all-the-nas-any-longer/page/2#post-1523079 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 20:07:05 +0000 rachylou 1523079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outstanding look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/718-shopping-explosion-i-couldnt-take-all-the-nas-any-longer/page/2#post-1523073 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 19:54:55 +0000 SW Ann 1523073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>geez you look fabulous in this outfit....all of it.... sometimes (in reference to a few past posts) a shopping trip is just what one needs to feel better.&nbsp; I find a new clothing item, or outfit, sometimes helps us see ourselves in a "new light" and it gets is&nbsp; past a bad stretch of poor image...Not always, but sometimes it's just what we need.&nbsp; Again, you look great.

And this harkens back to alaskagirl's post earlier today about authenticity and finding your style. &nbsp;I feel totally comfortable in this kind of look, and I suppose I should stop worrying about trying to fit into some mold and trying to be something I'm not. &nbsp; I just always worry about looking or feeling like I'm stuck in a style time -warp. &nbsp;Military rocker - you have no idea how many pieces in my closet actually fit that moniker . &nbsp;Ha! &nbsp;Sigh, act your age, Lisa.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/718-shopping-explosion-i-couldnt-take-all-the-nas-any-longer/page/2#post-1522848 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 04:34:27 +0000 tulle 1522848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a jacket--I love the way everything on it flies up and out!&nbsp; This military/rocker look has all the earmarks of a signature for you:&nbsp; that green, that style somehow at once extremely chic, playful, and no-nonsense. I can imagine your building your wardrobe around it.

Hate to bring up my DH again, but he actually commented on how nice it was to see my face again and how the cut opened it right up. And this from a man who says NOTHING about my hair as he knows enough not to:) I think our short hair looks just go in cycles. Choppy , longer , sleeker, shorter - rinse repeat. There's only so much we can do. I found I was always having to fuss with the longer bangs and layers , making sure they weren't blowing up a la Donald Trump in a windstorm . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/718-shopping-explosion-i-couldnt-take-all-the-nas-any-longer/page/2#post-1522842 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 04:11:55 +0000 Karie 1522842@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW.

One minute I like it, the next Im not sure. I just don't want to go back to what I had lol. Too scared to go really short at the front as I'm having some anxiety over not looking young or fresh enough .... I might need some therapy lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/718-shopping-explosion-i-couldnt-take-all-the-nas-any-longer/page/2#post-1522833 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 03:58:01 +0000 Anonymous 1522833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's stupid right now.

Another case of throwing caution to the wind. New stylist, and I had her copy her own cut. It was styled into a mini pompadour in front - which I've tried to replicate to varying degrees of success. My 84 year old mother actually liked it and my DH pronounced it better than what i had been getting the last year or so ,.UH &nbsp;OH. &nbsp;This actually has not been combed or fixed today and is full of sticky product and I also had a nap on it &nbsp; I'm done with my long bang, short back and side thing. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/718-shopping-explosion-i-couldnt-take-all-the-nas-any-longer#post-1522814 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 03:04:13 +0000 Sal 1522814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look all round!<br />I don't think you will regret any of these pieces, modern with attitude. &nbsp;Perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/718-shopping-explosion-i-couldnt-take-all-the-nas-any-longer#post-1522812 Sun, 19 Jul 2015 03:01:45 +0000 Deborah 1522812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa awesome purchases!

The whole look is pulled-together perfection and I am just *loving* your hair. You look like Sharon Stone's younger sister in these pics (I mean that as a compliment, Hope I didn't offend).
