Like you I feel better prepared for this year. I hope everyone who is shopping NAS finds at least one or two great items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-376565 Fri, 01 Jul 2011 02:24:26 +0000 Sveta 376565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, I just made an appointment for the next Friday. This year I am braving the border and 2.5 hour drive again. I hope I learned a lot from my last year experience and my NAS shopping will be even better this year. I also have fewer holes to fill so I am going to be more selective now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-376029 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 04:33:25 +0000 Anonymous 376029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun! My mom and I just made our appointment today I'm excited! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-376025 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 04:26:38 +0000 Kari 376025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome, Una! Thanks for the reminder to book my appointment, too. My sister and I shopped the pre-sale for the first time last year and had a GREAT experience - we're still wearing our NAS picks all the time. This year we hope to bring our mom along. I hope that you have a wonderful time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375966 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 02:24:59 +0000 rae 375966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool! Great opportunity to use the sale for your career capsule goals. I can't wait to see what you come out with! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375954 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 01:45:58 +0000 Nadya 375954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yea! I have an appointment Wednesday night. My first time pre-selecting though I go every year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375897 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 23:26:35 +0000 SW Ann 375897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You gave me the courage to go ahead and make an appointment too.....just got a call from the stylist but will be meeting the first day of sale since I live too far away to go twice....I'm scared, but excited....Hoping for the best for all of us! I've had too many disappointments with this sale in recent years....I want to change things! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375701 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 17:34:46 +0000 catgirl 375701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I'm planning to bring my Aida list along to keep me in check, AND yes, I've set aside enough funds to over-purchase (what a fun command to have to obey!) initially. Rest assured it will ALL be run by my personal panel of experts here!</p> <p>I hope the rest of you will do this too, so we can compare experiences. I'm a total newbie at the NAS - I always used to avoid it because shopping chaos generally leads to poor/panicked decisions on my part. I'm hoping that YLF sensibilities plus the sales rep will help with that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375605 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 15:05:00 +0000 Beth 375605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh what fun! I'm still considering making the call myself.</p> <p>I think it makes good sense to set expectations and give your SA an idea of your goals ahead of time:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375591 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 14:51:49 +0000 Angie 375591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, many YLF members do this each year. You are in good company :)</p> <p>The mayhem for me starts on Tuesday. I am preselecting for myself first, and with clients for the rest of the week. </p> <p>You need to take your time and over-purchase at first. You can return later. If you don't buy your size immediately - it will be gone (the smallest sizes run out fast). </p> <p>Concentrate on the high ticket stuff. If you come back with 2 or 3 KILLER pieces - you have done well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375584 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 14:46:23 +0000 Jonesy 375584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How fun! Tents full of fashionable, fall clothes, all at your fingertips! Fabulous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375570 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 14:35:52 +0000 Anonymous 375570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last year was the first year I did this and love everything I got. My only wish is that I'd bought more and taken my time to decide. I'd advise that since you wear a small size, go ahead and pick up anything that you are on the fence about. You can return later, but if you wait, your size may be gone. It takes off some of the pressure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375558 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 14:25:37 +0000 Ginkgo 375558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How exciting! Do you have any pictures of styles or looks that you like to help give her an idea of what you're drawn to? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375550 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 14:09:53 +0000 celia 375550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you stick with career wear it will be a wonderful oportunitty.HAve you finished tlooking trough your closet?<br /> Sorry , I don't wanna sound like your mother but if you know what you have you can add the right fun items to it.</p> <p>It will be a fun experiment if you hit it off with the SA. Girls have to have fun </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375544 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 14:01:43 +0000 rute 375544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How fun!<br /> I think you did right telling her your goal, it will be easier to stay on the track! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375543 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 13:59:08 +0000 rosee 375543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>that sounds so personal-shopper-style fun!!! Should be a neat experience, and no, i don't have any experience of my own to compare with.<br /> Do give a detailed summary afterward. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375503 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 11:24:07 +0000 yellowgirl 375503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally need to do that! I actually submitted my info on Nordstrom's website, but have not yet received a call back. I can't just drop into the store b/c I have to drive to another city to visit the store. I'll probably call them today to set up my appointment. How fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375479 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 07:38:46 +0000 Aunty 375479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh that sound great.<br /> No advice I am afraid, but I look forward to hearing all about it!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/i-made-an-appoinment-for-the-nas#post-375475 Wed, 29 Jun 2011 06:11:25 +0000 catgirl 375475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had to go in to return a swimsuit that didn't work out, and I asked the gal about the sale. She suggested I make an appointment and she would guide me around the "tents" they are apparently going to set up for the pre-sale shoppers. So I've got a date first thing on Tuesday. </p> <p>I told her I really needed to exert some self-control and that I had a goal of looking for careerwear that was both interesting and useful. She was a younger African-American woman and I felt we hit it off well on several levels. </p> <p>Any advice? Anyone else doing this? </p>
