I adore it and would love others to give it a go. I'm happy to see both pieces made Angie's picks, especially the Sejour jacket. It could use some love, as it was great in person, but I completely overlooked it online. It will be a great transitional piece.</p> <p>(I giggle a bit every time the word "transitional" is used to describe clothing. It makes me think of the Ab Fab quote, "It's been a fabulous year for the transeasonal trouser." ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1301950 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 14:19:30 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1301950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both jackets on you, too. It's well worth getting the sleeves shortened if you decide to do that, because they are great styles on you. especially like the peat color on you. Great finds! Good luck with your orders, and let us see them when you get them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1301901 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 12:23:20 +0000 viva 1301901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The EF jacket is wonderful on you, and I must add that your hair is STUNNING. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1301880 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 11:29:08 +0000 Inge 1301880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both pieces are stunning on you, Brenn, and so lovely to see you post.

I brought home the EF jacket too. The sleeves are longish even on a size XS! Fortunately I like long sleeves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1301757 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 03:59:21 +0000 abc 1301757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the EF jacket. Can't get it out of my head since seeing this post. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1301752 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 03:53:20 +0000 Kari 1301752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous pieces! I have a similar bomber from last year's NAS and LOVE it in fall and winter. The coat is marvelous on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1300800 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 22:10:01 +0000 Brenn 1300800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachy - thank you for the sleeve comment. I was also thinking they were a bit long. I will likely get them hemmed. I'm 5'6", but have fairly short legs/arms and long torso. I can often do petite pants, but in this piece, I think the seaming on the back would hit me funny.</p> <p>Thank you all for looking and commenting. I've had a rough few months personally, and joining in on NAS fun with some pieces that will bring me "the happy factor" every time I put them on is a win! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1300627 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 18:46:57 +0000 Gin Nelson 1300627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have also been considering ordering one of these jackets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1300613 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 18:23:51 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1300613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YOWZA!

The first really captures my heart with the mixed media thing it has going on. Will say the sleeves look on the long side... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1300544 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 16:39:49 +0000 Lisa 1300544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That tweed jacket in black/white (or grey?) is a great piece on you, my eyes immediately went to your face in the photo and the fit looks great too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1300155 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 02:43:42 +0000 Sheila 1300155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These jackets look terrific on you and I think they will both be great work-horses for your fall and winter outfits. Great purchases. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1300154 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 02:42:39 +0000 Brenn 1300154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The body of the EF jacket is wool. I do love the seaming on the back, so it feels a little more structured and flattering. I wanted the grey originally so I could wear it to work, per dress code colors. However, since I wear black tops a lot to work, I could still wear this to work as an outfit and remove it inside. Realistically, I think it would be too warm indoors anyway, so might as well go with what looks nicer! It also comes with an oversized safety pin wrapped in thread to use as a closure, if desired. Very cute. This was definitely my splurge item.</p> <p>Thank you for the kind comments. I have been dying and cutting my hair myself recently to save time since I've been working so much - I'm just thankful I haven't turned it into a wreck!</p> <p>Looking forward to sharing more throughout the sale and seeing what others find! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1300145 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 02:34:27 +0000 Susie 1300145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both of the jackets are fabulous!

Both of those jackets are&nbsp;<u>stunning</u> on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1300140 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 02:32:25 +0000 MuseumGal 1300140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that EF jacket is <i>beautifully</i> pieced.&nbsp; Is the body wool?&nbsp; Tweed? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1300138 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 02:30:46 +0000 jackiec 1300138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi! Just have to say that the EF jacket in peat is outstanding on you!! The colouring is fantastic for your hair &amp; complexion! B&amp;W jacket is nice too. YLF! Thanks for sharing </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-couple-nas-picks-plus-size#post-1300133 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 02:25:21 +0000 Brenn 1300133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi! I haven't posted much, but I wanted to join in on the NAS fun. This is my first time shopping it early, as I got a Nordstrom debit card recently (what a great idea!)</p> <p>I have a lot more on my list to sort through, but these were the first things that appealed to me. I had my eye on the Eileen Fisher leather-sleeved jacket since I saw it in the lookbook. I was thinking about the grey color, but I think the "peat" is a more flattering color for me. I am a size 14-16 on top/16-18 on bottom. I usually wear EF in a 1x or XL, but a L fit just fine in this.</p> <p>I had wanted to check out the marled-looking EF drape front cardigan, but didn't love the material in person. </p> <p>The other piece I liked was this Sejour bomber with faux leather accents. It's lightweight enough that I could wear it during the day at work. I work retail and am always scrunching or rolling my sleeves up, so this fits the bill (dress code is white/black/denim). This fit in a 14, so I'd say true-to-size.</p> <p>FYI - I'm wearing the NAS NYDJ straight legs in a 16. Not amazing, but I've lost weight recently and the jeans I had on were too baggy to deserve being photographed :)!</p> <p>My store didn't have a huge plus selection, so I'll be doing some ordering through my SA. I really want to check out the red plaid pullover from the lookbook, try some wide-calf black boots, and add a sweater or two to my fall wardrobe. I live in Texas, so my cold-weather needs aren't great, but being a New Englander, it's my favorite clothing season.</p> <p>Thanks for looking! Suggestions/comments welcome. </p>
