Can't go wrong with these booties at this price. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1302857 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 14:16:50 +0000 Angie 1302857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Killer loot. Both items are top picks, Jenava.</p> <p>I'm cautioning others with the&nbsp;coat though - as fab as it is - it's very scratchy. You didn't think so?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1302846 Mon, 14 Jul 2014 14:06:53 +0000 Lisa 1302846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look like two smart purchases that will be workhorses. &nbsp;Great job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1301933 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 13:35:15 +0000 Jjsloane 1301933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice choice you made. I found a great pair of Paul Green boots at the Rack last year and love the quality and fit for me.<br /> I LOVE the Trina plaid coat. Drool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1301917 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 12:59:48 +0000 Anonymous 1301917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the booties, and the sweater is so pretty on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1301903 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 12:27:10 +0000 viva 1301903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenava, thanks for adding the pricing info, which is so helpful for a non-cardholder like me. I am just imagining the kinds of savings that are being gotten! <br />I love the boots especially and it was helpful to read your decisionmaking breakdown. And that coat is gorgeous! I need a coat this year but not exactly sure that is what I want. I think I want a crisper look. Still, it's gorgeous and someone needs it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1301865 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 09:41:59 +0000 Jaime 1301865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look beautiful and great picks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1301860 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 09:33:40 +0000 Lisa 1301860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have done well with Paul Green in the past. I am considering these booties for myself in the grey. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1301852 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 08:23:54 +0000 goldenpig 1301852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look like practical and comfy yet stylish choices. The coat is pretty too, too bad it didn't come home with you. Smart buys for your current stage in life! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1301751 Sun, 13 Jul 2014 03:51:10 +0000 Kari 1301751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that you were very discerning and picked just the right pieces! Love the booties especially, Jenava. I think it's smart to buy limited but versatile pieces during this transition period in your life. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1301043 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 04:38:28 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1301043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them both! I agree with you the side zipper on the boots is cool. I love my Paul Green booties and shoes. They are among my most comfortable and durable; very good value. The sweater looks great on you. I feel a little similarly about waterfall cardis, but I got an inexpensive one last year for the same reason (minus mommyhood!)--it's so darned cozy, and sometimes I just need a cozy cardigan that looks stylish for various non-housebound activities. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1300990 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 03:31:43 +0000 Debbie 1300990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both pieces.

They may not be pushing your style boundaries but honestly pregnancy and early motherhood really does call for practicality and comfort and you are showing us this can be done but still with immense style. I adore both purchases and imagine they will be work horses for you. The coat is lovely but there will be more lovely coats to come;) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1300965 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 02:37:37 +0000 Jenava 1300965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anna, maybe you will buy that Trina Turk coat.&nbsp; (-:</p> <p>The autumn cashmere is in the Via C tent.&nbsp; TBH, I was very much "meh" about most clothing this year...which is fine since I am not shopping clothing anyway!&nbsp; I looked for a pair of Melinda Maria gold hoops but didn't find them.&nbsp; The Salon Shoes selection is small but decent.&nbsp; There are rag &amp; bones... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1300957 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 02:27:18 +0000 annagybe 1300957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smart purchases.<br />&nbsp;I still haven't figured out what I'm getting.

I love how they are simple while still having the interest with the zipper.</p> <p>And the sweater is a great cool weather piece. Adore the feel of cashmere and I like the textural interest on this. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1300929 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 01:57:10 +0000 Pree 1300929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both items.

Those booties look wonderful, and the cardigan is a great piece for pregnancy and mom-hood for sure. Thanks for the helpful write up as well. That is a gorgeous Trina Turk coat. What beautiful colours! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-buy#post-1300907 Sat, 12 Jul 2014 01:33:55 +0000 Jenava 1300907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, ladies, here is what I bought.&nbsp; cell phone snaps attached!</p> <p>Black casual booties.&nbsp; On sale for $260, F/P $389.<br /><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/paul-green-allison-suede-boot-women/3713192" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/pa.....en/3713192</a></p> <p>So incredibly comfortable and supportive, and I love the asymetrical zip on the outside of the boot.&nbsp; I went up a half size to a 7.5 and they fit perfectly.&nbsp; I tried them on with a thick pair of trouser stockings, and they had a bit of room so i know I can wear them with socks...I'm usually a perfect seven, so definitely size up!</p> <p>Paul Green is a well made, sometimes conservative, brand.&nbsp; I originally had my heart set on Vince booties because they're such a modern, slick style, but the Chelsea's were somewhat of a duplicate in my closet.&nbsp; Not to mention more than I wanted to spend, plus out of my size in-store so I couldn't try on. The online-only shearling lined Vince pair my friend warned against due to her disappointing experience previously with Vince shearling lining in another pair.&nbsp; (She said it didn't wear well, which completely turned me off!)</p> <p>The only other item I purchased was this autumn cashmere waterfall cardigan, $199, F/P $350:<br /><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/autumn-cashmere-open-front-knit-cardigan/3746109" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/au.....an/3746109</a><br />I took home a large, although the medium fit me decently (I just wanted a bit of extra slouch).&nbsp; I'm an 8-10.<br />Generally I don't like this style of sweater, but since I've been pregnant I've been wanting something cozy I can throw on over a tee.&nbsp; I have VERY few cardigans, none of which are cozy.&nbsp; I know this desire for cozy, easy pieces will only grow as I grow, and probably spill into early motherhood, so this was more of a practical purchase than something I fell in love with.&nbsp; I do really like how the ribbing gives it more structure than many of these types of sweaters, though.&nbsp; And the pale grey IS a good color on me.&nbsp; I would have preferred the ivory color, but that didn't seem practical...I am already making the transition to mommyhood!!</p> <p>Lastly, the item I left behind for budget reasons (fiscal responsibility - yet another sign of my transition to mommyhood!).&nbsp; SOMEONE BUY THIS PLEASE!&nbsp; This coat is beyond amazing.&nbsp; It pained me greatly to leave it behind.&nbsp; The texture is amazing and it's thick and cozy.&nbsp; The colors are beautiful, the fit it beautiful.&nbsp; Amazing:</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/trina-turk-scarlett-plaid-coat/3719882" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/tr.....at/3719882</a></p>
