I agree with what others said about the Ted Baker. IMO, the strappy tunic is a gorgeous color and I love the hemline and even the neckline is interesting, yet that neckline may not be your best. It seems to create the illusion of looking loose in the angled picture. Will you feel self conscious wearing it? Is it actually loose? Is it a shirt that you will end up tugging into place?

You look so happy wearing it! Didn't someone say it made your skin luminescent? It does. I think it looks good as you are wearing it, though I can see a smaller size might be the way to go. Just get it, because those colors are wonderful. And seeing you in the Madewell dress is a revelation--what a great look! Mochi on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1699008 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 14:51:20 +0000 Mochi 1699008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thank you, Suz. I think I would get either the shirt (in a smaller size) or the scarf, not both. The scarf seems more versatile, in a sense. I would get locked into wearing the t-shirt with monochrome jeans and the few skirts I own are all patterned (maybe I *should* buy some solids).  One or two of my NAS items from the first round may stay or go...it kind of depends, too, on Angie's report tomorrow.  Suz on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1699004 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 14:44:02 +0000 Suz 1699004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Nancy, maybe size down in the top just in case? Others have also tried it and seem to agree it runs a bit big. The colours are just so lovely on you.  The one Ted Baker scarf is more of a "cape" it looks like, that you can also wear as a scarf. I guess it might be a good topper for formal events. But versatile. I am thinking about tango, and whether it could be used after coming off the floor....it would be so pretty on you and dramatic.  Brooklyn on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1698711 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 04:03:40 +0000 Brooklyn 1698711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I agree with Greenjeans 100%. Mochi on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1698706 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 03:45:27 +0000 Mochi 1698706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes, on reconsidering, I'm not going to keep the EF shirt. Madewell, Lush, yes, probably the cashmere Nordstrom Collection sweater...and I'll try ordering up in size with the Halogen shell.  And Angie's top pics will be up for consideration very soon.  ETA Amy: it is the colors I love. The cut was sort of shapeless on me. I will consider Suz's suggestion for the scarf (though I'm not really good at scarves, either).  xoxo Amy on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1698704 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 03:40:50 +0000 Amy 1698704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow! This is so much fun! I love seeing all your pictures. I adore your curly hair :) The shirtdress looks great.  I like the Ted Baker top on you...it could just be the color though. That shade makes your skin look luminescent. rachylou on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1698651 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 02:35:37 +0000 rachylou 1698651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The dress seems really good (altho I wonder a bit like Suz, bec of the last photo). I also really like the kimono sweater on you. Soft and a bit different. Not sure about the EF shirt. Feels short to me...

Thistle on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1698521 Thu, 21 Jul 2016 00:15:03 +0000 Thistle 1698521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ If I could figure out scarves, that Ted Baker one would be so mine!! Anyway, on to you!  That Madewell tunic makes you super happy. If it passes the sit test, it should be yours! I like the Ted Baker top on you, especially as you've styled it with the white trousers and burgundy topper. BUT, you have to LOVE it for it to get to stay. As much as the tunic. I have a similar Nordstrom Collection Cashmere sweater. It has held up beautifully after a year of regular use. I usually wear a tee or tank underneath mine, though, for an extra layer of warmth. Helps the sweater not need to be washed as often, too. I like the Halogen lace top as well, but I think you'll need to size up. Halogen runs wonky. Sometimes small, sometimes large, and sometimes TTS.

Both definite keepers to me.

It looks terrific on you. Great color for you too. I also really like the look and fit of the burgundy cashmere tunic sweater with the slits (16-18)? So flattering. I like the Ted Baker floral as a wildcard, but is it TOO wild? Will you wear it? I wonder if it might become an unexpected fave like your watercolor top. Then again, it might just languish in the closet. It is very sweet, but maybe too sweet?

ETA 2 scarf-y things!!  Diana on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1698435 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 21:51:50 +0000 Diana 1698435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Madewell tunic  - looks great and I think it'll be very useful as a trans-seasonal thing. Ted Baker - love the colors on you, but don't love the shape which seems a bit sloppy.  But I'd look for something else in these colors! kimono sweater - looks fine but it doesnt sound like you love it, and I'm not super wowed or anything... Paige tee - boo about the hems.  I have a paige tee that I got for a fraction of the list price at the rack, and I like it but don't think they're worth what they're charging. EF tee: I find it a bit short but depends on what you'll be wearing with it. Lush top: love it! Plum cashmere sweater: looks good as well.  Beautiful color and I like the stepped hem. Black sweater: eh, the other one is better.  This one kind of looks like a box. Halogen lace shell: pretty!  I think it's definitely worth trying a size up.

Madewell tunic is fab. Make sure you do the sit-down test to assess the button closures on the bust.</li> <li>Love #16 and #19 too. </li> </ul> Mochi on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1698430 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 21:39:21 +0000 Mochi 1698430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks, all!  (And thanks, Angie and Greg.)  JAileen on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1698428 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 21:26:57 +0000 JAileen 1698428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The flowered shirt is really pretty on you. I also like the top with the cords around the neckline. I also like the green dress/tunic. Those are what stood out to me.

Lush Strappy Long Sleeve Woven Blouse.  Fabulous color and drama on you.  16-18. Nordstrom Collection cashmere sweater..  Totes your color.  Elegant to boot.   I like to lace overlay, too, but only if it fits.   Mochi on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1698419 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 21:00:56 +0000 Mochi 1698419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks, Suz!  The cardigan probably fits fine...it's a one-size piece...I'm just not excited by it or think it's particularly flattering, even in the context as a lounging piece. It's not as nice cashmere as the NC piece (pics 16-18). It's a little bulky. Not in the weight, but in how it drapes on me, IMO.  Re the Madewell shirt dress: I won't lie, it is not roomy in the bust. But it's honestly not tight, either. It's a woven fabric and won't give much, but I truly wouldn't consider keeping it if I thought it was too tight.  The Halogen top does come in an XL, so I'll try that. (I suspect it may still be too small.) It's such a nice piece. I wish the other color it came in was an ivory rather than a bright white.  xoxo Suz on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1698410 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 20:44:22 +0000 Suz 1698410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Nancy, I really like the colour of the dress on you. It's awfully hard to tell about fit from the photos (because you have to have your arms this way and that -- it looks to be pulling a bit in the last photo) -- but if it feels good, then I say go for it. The sagey olive tone is flattering. Looks good with the white jeans.  Colours of the Ted Baker are divine on you -- WOW. You glow. Such a lovely romantic piece.  Are those 2 EF tops? They look fantastic, too.  I'm less sure about the cardigan. Love the colour but can't really say about the fit. How does it feel?  Love love love that crossover detail top on you -- just stunning.  Tunics also look good.  The lace top is so pretty!! Again, I'm having trouble seeing the fit of it but if it feels good and works well in your closet I think the colours and texture are lovely with your skin and hair.  You scored big time!!  Mochi on "My NAS order came in!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-order-came-in#post-1698392 Wed, 20 Jul 2016 20:20:34 +0000 Mochi 1698392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hi. I got it! And mostly feel more excited now that it's here :) 1-5 Madewell shirt dress. Expected it to look awful on me but I'm liking a lot and poised to keep it. Great color and quality, as I expected. It somehow doesn't make my bustiness look horrible, and I think it'll look fine now, and also if I lose weight. Fits fine around the arms and back. Really fits well. I'd be wearing it as a tunic. 6 Ted Baker. I dunno. It's sweet, but I'm not feeling it.  7-8. Halogen kimono sweater. Again, it's nice but I'm not excited by it. BUT I will be happy to be argued with if anything seems really wonderful (like at least a 9) in your esteemed opinions. Or conversely, I think I look great and I don't.  9-10. Paige t-shirt. It's well-made, color is good and fits well. BUT the edge is unfinished. Not acceptable. Back it goes.  11-12. Eileen Fisher cap-sleeved tee. It's basic but I need it, and her cuts almost always work well for me. I wish I liked, or needed, the other colors as much.  13-15. Lush Strappy Long Sleeve Woven Blouse (why the caps all of a sudden? : ) I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I did: material, cut, color. I am going to keep. It's a little low-cut, though.  16-18. Nordstrom Collection cashmere sweater. Another one I wasn't expecting to really like as much as I do. I have one or two other cashmere pieces, but this has a better quality. I think I will keep it.  19-21 Eileen Fisher ribbed merino wool pullover. I just am not in love with this, though it's a perfectly okay piece. Not keeping unless you are very very very persuasive. Probably still not keeping.  22-23 Halogen Lace Overlay Shell. I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I do. It's sturdy and has a beautiful color and texture. (It's showing up too light in the pics--it's kind of a cross between a burgundy and a plum. Luscious.) Sadly, it is too tight. I will see if there is an XL, but likely not, or I would have ordered it.  Looking forward to Round Two! xoxoxoxo
