I stopped at Roseville, and ate in Corte Madera. Let's plan something soon.</p> <p>Thanks, Angie. Do you think the CE Ombro wool jacket would be versatile enough? It really is cool looking.</p> <p>Beth, you're so right - I really wanted the Vince jacket until I realized it was more sweater than jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-finally-got-to-nordstrom---actually-to-two-of-them#post-1325798 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 02:16:17 +0000 Beth 1325798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like you had a fun and useful day! It's always nice to see things IRL...sometimes they look better than expected and sometimes you can cross them off your list. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-finally-got-to-nordstrom---actually-to-two-of-them#post-1325733 Fri, 08 Aug 2014 01:03:25 +0000 Angie 1325733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice items.

We should have a shopping day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-finally-got-to-nordstrom---actually-to-two-of-them#post-1325679 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 23:36:27 +0000 JAileen 1325679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachylou, I'm sorry I was too lazy to look it up, and see it was your post. I thought the fit was great and I loved the colors and the pseudo tie dye look about it. The fabric felt nice, too. I guess I'm an old hippie at heart. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-finally-got-to-nordstrom---actually-to-two-of-them#post-1325655 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 23:08:52 +0000 rachylou 1325655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Might have been me on the Ombro. Just did not look at all like the pics on me. The arm holes were huge on me, yet very high up. I got some strange bunching. And then the circle in the front, when the jacket's closed (I always wear my jackets closed)... like a bulls' eye.</p> <p>Just goes to show how there's chemistry (or not) between item and wearer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-finally-got-to-nordstrom---actually-to-two-of-them#post-1325629 Thu, 07 Aug 2014 22:14:12 +0000 JAileen 1325629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had to go Nordstrom to return something that didn't work out. While I was there I tried on a couple items I was interested in. </p> <p>1. Vince sweater jacket. I had coveted this item ever since I saw it. I was imagining the fabric to be firm like boiled wool. In person, this is more sweater-like than jacket-like. Plus the sleeves were about 5 inches too long. Okay, I'm over it.</p> <p>2. Classiques Entier Ombro Marble' Wool Blend Jacket. Someone here tried this jacket and didn't like it. I tried it and loved it! It makes my silver hair look great, and makes my waist look slimmer. However, I was mad at myself for not getting it during NAS. The sleeves were too long by about 1/2 inch. I also wondered if it was a little too distinctive, and less versatile. I may stalk this item for awhile.</p> <p>Later I went to another Nordstrom with my mother and had a delicious supper at the restaurant inside. </p>
