Before the sale, I planned to focus on just a couple of wardrobe holes to try; after a couple weeks, I got pulled into the enthusiasm here and started adding lots of items to my Nordstrom wish list. Thank goodness I didn't actually order or buy all of them! I'm delighted with what I ended up keeping. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1714729 Tue, 16 Aug 2016 04:22:53 +0000 rachylou 1714729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My puffy box got delivered. I'm exhausted and work is still nuts... Have not even opened the box!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1714417 Mon, 15 Aug 2016 17:19:12 +0000 Barbara Diane 1714417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got really busy and forgot to check back-I read the first few in a rush. So, late comments if anyone checks back.</p> <p><b>Rachylou</b>, that is a brutal work schedule. I hope it has calmed down. I loved hearing about shopping with your little one in the stroller :). I'm on the other end of the spectrum. We've had the Olympics on non-stop and I'm ready for them to be over.</p> <p><b>Style Fan</b>, this was my third, but my first not just buying accessories. Although I still love my booties, jewelry and bag from the first two years.</p> <p><b>StaysFit</b>, <b>AviaMaria</b>, <b>JAileen</b>- I'm still deciding. One more ready to go back.</p> <p><b>Muffin</b>, NAS has helped me have a direction for fall.</p> <p><b>Peri</b>, Sorry you thought you had another day.<br />I too try to get as much returned during the sale as I can so others can get the great price and so it's off my card, but I didn't make it with a few items. I'm just now realizing it's only been a week since the sale ended. It's been a busy, full week. Although I am still mulling over a purchase or two from day 1, which was a while ago.</p> <p><b>Suz</b>, I love the phrase wardrobe pets! Smiling for days. :)</p> <p><b>BrieN</b>, impressive that you got shopping in. Sorry you have to pay full price for that item.</p> <p><b>Susie</b>, sounds like some nice items. Glad you are happy with your purchases.</p> <p><b>Traci</b>, great advice. I'll be on the lookout. Have you noticed that on anything yet?</p> <p>Nice finds <b>Diana</b>. I love that jacket and hope there's something like it next year. I don't need it this year.</p> <p><b>Janet</b>, we're necklace twins if I keep it. Love the jacket especially. Looks like you've added pieces with great impact.</p> <p><b>Lisa</b>, best response ever. I'm afraid mine burned and I didn't notice. That's why I'm trying to return as soon as I decide.</p> <p><b>Beth</b>, glad you found some things while you were busy. Do you like home renovations? I love the results but hate the process. I have a 85% done bathroom to show for it. Lacking vanity doors, medicine cabinet, towel bars.</p> <p><b>Jenn</b>, I hope those 2 items are keepers.</p> <p><b>Sterling</b>, glad you got some needs filled. I filled one need, possibly one hole, bought my watch which I love love love but did not need, and the rest was either unexpected extras or items I'm still pondering, some of which may fill a need and some of which don't. I had hoped to have my needs filled, but I have more shopping to do.</p> <p><b>Karie</b>, I love that jacket, and the sweater is one of my purchases.</p> <p>Hoping I didn't miss anyone. Thanks for your answers. I learned a few things from them.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710766 Tue, 09 Aug 2016 13:04:15 +0000 Karie 1710766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't end up with the items I was really searching for (black booties and a black purse) but I did end up with a few other goodies. I only made three purchases this year: <ul> <li>The blazer hasn't arrived yet,&nbsp;</li> <li>the Halogen sweater is the perfect weight for year-round wear,&nbsp;</li> <li>and the earrings are super fun and will go with everything.</li> </ul> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710518 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 23:28:32 +0000 Anonymous 1710518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have one package left to be delivered, but yes, I am relieved that the sale has ended. &nbsp;There was just too much temptation for me. Still I am really pleased with my purchases. &nbsp;I bought very sensibly. I filled needs. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710513 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 23:24:13 +0000 Jenn 1710513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My last two chances to get something from the sale are still on their way. Fingers crossed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710511 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 23:17:54 +0000 Beth 1710511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been deep into house renovations so all shopping was done online this year. I didn't buy much, but still ended up doing some damage...enough so that I'm glad the sale is over.</p> <p>Also, totally agree that it's worth stalking pieces in the next few weeks. Last year, lots of items later went on sale at prices that were even lower than NAS prices.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710395 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 19:25:12 +0000 Lisa 1710395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, my credit card can stop smoking now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710351 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 17:55:38 +0000 Janet 1710351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had much less excitement -- and less FOMO -- this year because I was more preoccupied with other things, mainly travel. I got a chance to shop it a little in Seattle and then again for a couple of hours at home, and I perused some online offerings, but all in all, I ended up with just four things from NAS, and I am content with that. I've done some other shopping recently, and I have no desire to go overboard with shopping and spending right now. I'm excited to have some refreshers, but there is plenty in my closet from years past that will still serve me well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710349 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 17:45:27 +0000 Diana 1710349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whew!&nbsp; I've got one bra on its way and a couple of things to return, but that's it.&nbsp; I'm keeping the first four finds.&nbsp; The navy Caslon jacket (last find) never came back in a Small, which is too bad.&nbsp; I am considering hanging on to the medium for a couple of weeks to see if I can do an exchange at the sale price after some returns come in.</p> <p>I do wish I had had time to go to the actual store and try things on, but this was a crazy few weeks for me - I went to not one, but two conferences as well as a quick weekend trip out of town (none of them near a Nordies!) during NAS so it was all online for me this time.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710308 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 15:41:58 +0000 Traci 1710308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In past years I've noticed some items get clearances to NAS prices or lower as soon as the sale is over. It never really ends! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710293 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 15:12:43 +0000 Susie 1710293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Similar to JAileen, I started off fast and furious with a number of orders. Almost everything has been returned but I still have a few stragglers. My last order was one sale item that got cancelled and a pair of boots that were non sale. All in all, I kept 6 pieces- 2 toppers, 2 pants, a top and a necklace- and I am&nbsp;happy with all of them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710288 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 15:03:39 +0000 JAileen 1710288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't really say I feel sad or relieved. I had shopped madly, then I went out of town last week, and suddenly it was over for me. I have some decisions to make, and some things to return. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710285 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 14:48:44 +0000 AviaMariah 1710285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still have a few items on their way to me and I think I exhausted any possibilities for myself. &nbsp;So I'm ready for it to be over.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710264 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 13:56:31 +0000 BrieN 1710264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We moved houses in the middle of the sale and i <i>still</i> ended up making a lot of purchases. There was one last item for DD that I didn't get (at least I don't think I ordered it -- pretty chaotic around here) and will have to purchase at full price.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710246 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 13:37:44 +0000 Suz 1710246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still have stuff coming to me to test out...so we shall see! I definitely have the bulk of the shopping done though and will be glad to move into autumn with such lovely wardrobe pets!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710243 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 13:31:24 +0000 Peri 1710243@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stink! I thought today was the last day. I was going to do some in store returns and feel better that I got them back while the sale was still on. Oh well, a technicality, and I want them off my card asap.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm with Staysfit...I have two more boxes coming and a few final decisions still to make. And a summary post to make! Have to do those for closure.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710240 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 13:22:52 +0000 Muffin 1710240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a few boxes still coming this week and lamenting a few things I didn't jump on but yes, glad to be done for now. I will need to sort out the keep/returns (&amp; dollars spent) and start making some directions for fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710159 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 09:19:45 +0000 Staysfit 1710159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm still sorting through what to keep and return!

Work is very crazy. I couldn't do a proper shop. I'm on my 6th eleven hour day right now and have a reference to write when I get off!</p> <p>Also, I'm missing the Olympics! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/and-its-over#post-1710138 Mon, 08 Aug 2016 07:09:15 +0000 Barbara Diane 1710138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Although items are still on the way to me, and there will be some more returns also.<br />Anyone else sad/relieved? </p>
