Free shippnig from Nordies in Canada must feel like Christmas. I would have done the same thing.

Major. Shopping. Moxie. &nbsp;</p> <p>I've done pretty well by most of my online shoe ordering, too. Tall boots are another matter -- that's been much chancier for me. But shoe reviews, combined with Fabber reviews, usually give me a good sense of whether they will work and how well.&nbsp;</p> <p>As for adding bras to your list....are you sure you don't also need some bottoms to go with those? &nbsp;:)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bonk-fallen-totally-off-any-wagon-i-pretended-to-be-on#post-1319232 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 19:37:34 +0000 kellygirl 1319232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks! It looks amazing on you. Thanks for sharing your links. I was looking at the drape top too and there you are modeling that one too. Off to look at colors now.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bonk-fallen-totally-off-any-wagon-i-pretended-to-be-on#post-1319176 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 18:35:46 +0000 Elizabeth P 1319176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly, I am wearing it here:<br /><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-14-06-24-team-wear" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-team-wear</a></p> <p>and #6 here.&nbsp; I love this top.&nbsp; It's been so hot I've been in skirt/dress mode, but it also looks great with jeans - perfect amount of drape.&nbsp; I&nbsp; hope the smaller size does too!&nbsp; <br /><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-early-july---simple-summer-dressing-for-work" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....g-for-work</a></p> <p>Jenny, my fingers are crossed for the Munro's... I have no idea why I think I can&nbsp; get away with ordering shoes online w/o trying them on, but I've been lucky so far.&nbsp; Thanks in part of course to the fabbers who help out with fit info!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bonk-fallen-totally-off-any-wagon-i-pretended-to-be-on#post-1319166 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 18:24:59 +0000 Jenny H 1319166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm wearing my Munro Robyns for the first time today even though it's really still too warm to be wearing booties here. I'm enjoying them. I hope you enjoy yours too.</p> <p>I had to return my Pleione split neck top since I otherwise overspent at the NAS, so I feel your pain re: falling off the wagon.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bonk-fallen-totally-off-any-wagon-i-pretended-to-be-on#post-1319164 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 18:23:12 +0000 kellygirl 1319164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You crack me up! Have we seen the pleione short sleeve split neck blouse on you? I'm thinking as a fellow IT, I should give that one a try as well. I don't even attempt shopping bans anymore. They make me want to spend more! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bonk-fallen-totally-off-any-wagon-i-pretended-to-be-on#post-1319154 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 18:16:28 +0000 Elizabeth P 1319154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes Neel, girl math indeed.&nbsp; The sweater really didn't add much to the bill at the end of the day :)</p> <p>That's funny Peri!&nbsp; Looking forward to seeing your sweater.&nbsp; I love the blue one, but already have the Joie in blue so black for me it is. </p> <p>I hope you're feeling better Suz.&nbsp; </p> <p>And Mo, I almost spit tea on my monitor when I read that.&nbsp; Counting down the hours, indeed.&nbsp; Too funny.</p> <p>But because we ARE rapidly running out of July, which is now a shopping month for me... I went for a bra fitting at lunch. (Also on my rapidly shortening list of "things I'm allowed to buy", just to be clear ) Well, lets just say that all was NOT well in that department.&nbsp; Which I suspected.&nbsp; So, add two new bras to my list... and I pray to whoever that I can find some cheaper ones that will work as well, cuz this particular store is pricy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bonk-fallen-totally-off-any-wagon-i-pretended-to-be-on#post-1319065 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 16:47:47 +0000 Mo 1319065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, some don't do well with absolutes . . . some are better with&nbsp;<i>guidelines</i> :D<br />And not that I'm counting down or anything, but less than 36 hours to go with No Buy July!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bonk-fallen-totally-off-any-wagon-i-pretended-to-be-on#post-1319035 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 16:18:21 +0000 Helena 1319035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bonk-fallen-totally-off-any-wagon-i-pretended-to-be-on#post-1318986 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 15:42:30 +0000 Suz 1318986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Confession is good for the soul! And anyway, you just did a huge closet edit. :)&nbsp;</p> <p>Those look like great pieces, really versatile and comfortable.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bonk-fallen-totally-off-any-wagon-i-pretended-to-be-on#post-1318930 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 14:55:34 +0000 Peri 1318930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think we are becoming twins.</p> <p>I bought the EF in blue...beautiful and very flattering. I'm waiting on a different size to decide btw two, should come today and I will post.</p> <p>I'm also waiting on the Pleione mixed media tunic.</p> <p>And I ordered the red and black one but it is going back. I love the colors but the neck hangs funny on me. Maybe too voluminous as you said, but it isn't a total love so I'm returning it in favor of the other things. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bonk-fallen-totally-off-any-wagon-i-pretended-to-be-on#post-1318898 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 14:10:23 +0000 Neel 1318898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol! I love your first para :D. I soooo resonate!</p> <p>Fantastic haul though! Love all the colors and style! And 100$ for the man (and a little bit for yourself in that) does sound reasonable. Girl math always wins! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bonk-fallen-totally-off-any-wagon-i-pretended-to-be-on#post-1318878 Wed, 30 Jul 2014 13:56:21 +0000 Elizabeth P 1318878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's funny what discovering free shipping can do to you.&nbsp; Coupled with a<br /> sale, and also discovering a few items you're interested don't have<br /> duties applied...</p> <p>Sigh.&nbsp; Firmly committed to No Buy August now!&nbsp; (My definition is when the money is spent, not when the clothes arrive)</p> <p>To my defense, a couple of these ARE on my list of wardrobe holes, and fully "allowed" to enter my closet come fall.</p> <p>1.&nbsp; Munro Robyn's (blame Jackie for this one).&nbsp; Black booties suitable for skirts/dresses and pants are needed - my current ones are almost dead.&nbsp; Was going to get the SE Petty's, but I love the v front in these - my navy booties are like this and are so flattering with dresses.<br />2.&nbsp; EF V neck stretch knit top - I knew I wanted an asymmetrical black tunic sweater once I purchased a navy one (Joie) last year.&nbsp; Ordered two sizes, so am committed to a return.&nbsp; But worth the peace of mind.<br />3. Plione split neck top - this is a new pattern, and I really like it.&nbsp; Not needed, not necessary... but should go into fall with black toppers.&nbsp; Ordered a size down from my black one, which is "voluminous" to say the least, (but can get away with it because of the style/cut) so fingers crossed.<br />4. Plione mixed media tunic - just because I like the split neck so much, want to try the "winter" version.&nbsp; Ordered two colours, one may go back.&nbsp; </p> <p>OK and I guess I should 'fess up that I also got another sweater on the "spend $100 get $50 off" sale at BR a few days ago.&nbsp; It's our silk anniversary, so I was buying DH a silk sweater - seemed to only make sense to try to spend the $100...</p> <p>OK.&nbsp; I'm DONE. </p>
