It's so great to see you post and see the range of items you purchased here. Such wonderful additions to your closet, as perhaps only someone who knows your closet from posts past could tell. But I can just imagine how these items might pair with others you own, and it makes the viewing even more delicious. &nbsp;</p> <p>#1, #5, and #6 just hit it out of the ballpark. It is a really great season for your colours and the blouses are also right up your alley.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the happy family photos as well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finishing-touches-for-now#post-1550594 Thu, 03 Sep 2015 00:49:38 +0000 Brooklyn 1550594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look like great choices. I can See you have covered the range from dressy to casual. And all so well coordinated. I especially like the fit and flare dresses on you. And your cute pup. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finishing-touches-for-now#post-1550589 Thu, 03 Sep 2015 00:45:37 +0000 Jaime 1550589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great picks!

I'm amazed you had the stamina to put all of these outfits together. :-). Enjoy all your new lovely things! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finishing-touches-for-now#post-1550450 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 19:57:52 +0000 Kari 1550450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Missvee, &nbsp;A size up in the vest is definitely too big (in width, length, etc.) It's actually not best with the slippery poly-silk blouse I styled it with in the picture, because the soft ponte fabric of the vest literally slipped up my short waist and bunched up! I was too tired to change into something else to try again. &nbsp;:) &nbsp;I actually also decided upon seeing the pictures that the gray of the vest is too much of a purple-gray for this blouse, so I'd pair it more happily with other items in my closet (blouses with more texture, or knits, or under a blazer) that make it fit better. &nbsp;I like it both worn open and closed; my other vest is a black buttonless/zipperless vest that is always worn open so I like having an alternative. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finishing-touches-for-now#post-1550444 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 19:48:15 +0000 missvee 1550444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are such good choices for your colouring. I love everything you've picked! Just wondering how as size up in the vest might look? Or would you be wearing in mostly undone? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finishing-touches-for-now#post-1550441 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 19:40:42 +0000 Elly 1550441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Number 1 and number 7 are really SMOKING outfits on your Kari! It is so good to see you around more. I also love the dog walking clothes--- great for the LOA.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finishing-touches-for-now#post-1550422 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 19:11:03 +0000 Jenn 1550422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Eee! I love pretty much every item you've picked. If I could wear polyester, the Halogen and Pleione blouses would be in my shopping cart in a flash. I'm so glad I get to enjoy them on you. &nbsp;Also LOVE the fit and flare dresses, culottes, and burgundy jeans. Seriously, it's all fab.&nbsp;</p> <p>If I had to pick a fave look, it's be #1, but 5/6 are both awesome too, and I like your active look in #9 too. You must be so thrilled with your restocked closet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finishing-touches-for-now#post-1550421 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 19:10:46 +0000 Thistle 1550421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such fab finds!!&nbsp; I found myself happy with my NAS this year as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finishing-touches-for-now#post-1550417 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 19:06:27 +0000 Maneera 1550417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great purchases Kari.

You look strong and completely together :-)<br />Cute pics of DH to be and pup!<br />Thanks for sharing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finishing-touches-for-now#post-1550403 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 18:45:05 +0000 AviaMariah 1550403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All so fab! &nbsp;1 is my favorite but it looks like you picked up some really great pieces.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finishing-touches-for-now#post-1550399 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 18:41:26 +0000 Kari 1550399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>With so many things up in the air recently, it was fortuitous timing to have beefed up some wardrobe holes and have my closet at a more complete place following the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (and a couple other purchases when I successfully stalked non-NAS items until I found them for a great sale price.)&nbsp;</p> </p> <p>It's extremely rare for me to bring this many items into my closet in one go, but I feel great about these choices.<br /> You've seen individual dressing room pics on my NAS thread, but I wanted to take some photos in better lighting with some styling attempts.</p> <p> Please excuse the not-dry/styled hair! </p> </p> <p>1. Halogen burgundy floral print tie neck blouse; NYDJ black zip pocket pants; KUT from the Kloth drape front black jacket</p> <p>2. Burgundy Halogen ponte fit and flare dress</p> <p>3. Eliza J. ombre print fit and flare dress</p> <p>4. Ro and De navy/emerald/white polka dot tie neck blouse; MYNT 1792 navy box pleat skirt. &nbsp;(I'm actually REALLY psyched about this skirt, as it pairs beautifully with two loved but near-orphan items - a <a rel="nofollow" href="http://pencilskirtlife.lookfab.com/post/nordstrom-anniversary-sale-buys-photos">navy lace sweater </a>and <a rel="nofollow" href="http://pencilskirtlife.lookfab.com/post/fall-wear-1">jacket with black faux leather trim</a> from NAS purchases past.)</p> <p>5. Pleione orange and burgundy faux-wrap blouse; Eloquii faux leather culottes (that I need to take in to be altered; they're currently about 3" longer than what I think would look best with my leg &amp; heel height.)</p> <p>6. Same blouse as in #1; NYDJ burgundy skinny jeans; Franco Sarto burgundy booties</p> <p>7. NYDJ grey zip pocket skinnies; MYNT 1792 grey asymmetrical zip vest</p> <p>8. Kiyonna purple lace dress with burgundy liner</p> <p>9. Purple Zella jacket with peplum; Zella "work it" ruched pants/capris</p> <p>10. Turquoise Kiyonna mesh dress. &nbsp;(I found a solution for the sheer shoulder; I found a nude slip that did a GREAT job of disguising my bra strap from being majorly obvious.)</p> <p>Not pictured: I also added the cobalt Michael Kors rain jacket, and had a couple other pairs of Zella activewear bottoms to add to my active/"dog park" capsule.</p> </p> <p>This is a lot to add at one time, but it's also all I'm going to buy for the foreseeable future. &nbsp;I added very carefully, picking items that filled holes (more blouses/dresses, wanting a skirt that WASN'T a pencil skirt, missing vests, and desiring to add more in burgundy and navy/ink to my wardrobe.)</p>
