Everything is a winner. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2/page/2#post-689400 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 20:57:26 +0000 Inge 689400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You guys sure know how to make a person smile. Thank you so much everyone for all the wonderful comments and compliments!!</p> <p>Tina - *chuckle*<br /> Janet - Yes! I knew we were both smitten with that scarf, it looks even better irl, don't you think. And we are now blouse quadruplets with Angie and Shannon:-)<br /> Laura - The Theory trousers arrived yesterday. Because Theory runs small I suspected from the get-go that I wouldn't be able to achieve the same slouchy look as Angie. Mine fit me more like the model, and as it happens I really wanted a pair of cigarette pants for next season, and these are IT!<br /> Ornella - *blushing* Thank you! It truly is a fantastic feeling! I have really embraced the wardrobe capsules concept, and it is making shopping, closet culling, putting together outfits in the morning, and coming up with new combinations so much easier (and lots more fun).<br /> Angie - I've already worn my blazer twice, the blouse once:-)<br /> Vicki - The trousers really are amazing, aren't they. I could definitely see those slipper flats on you;-) The Valette sweaters run a little small, if you like a bit of room to layer underneath, then I definitely recommend sizing up.<br /> Sveta - It's funny how I'm currently equally obsessed with wide-legged trousers and cigarette pants. I think the blouse will work with both looks:-)<br /> Sara - My new loot will indeed play super nicely with the rest of my closet;-)</p> <p>I am over the moon with all my new items, but really want to emphasize that I couldn't have done it without Angie's and all your help. So a big thank you for that as well.<br /> I have a pretty good idea about which styles, silhouettes and colours suit me, and had lots of fun over the last few months (in preparation of the NAS) thinking about which style direction I want to take, but ordering online is always a little tricky. So I carefully read all your threads and comments about the preselection, and of course listened to Angie's wise advice about sizes and fit, and it turns out everything in my NAS boxes is perfect. Such a brilliant feeling!-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2/page/2#post-688600 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 02:34:28 +0000 MNsara 688600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You did great, Inge!</p> <p>I'm enjoying how you got a nice variety with blouse, sweater, trousers, blazer, scarf, jacket, and shoes! Just right! Great fit. Great style. </p> <p>I also enjoy the way they all work together - their very own capsule - but I know they'll work well with what you already own.</p> <p>Well done </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2/page/2#post-688590 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 02:27:21 +0000 Jaime 688590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love everything but agree the leather jacket is out of this world! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2/page/2#post-688420 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 00:34:07 +0000 JulieJohn 688420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smashing! You look so pretty and confident. I can smell the leather from here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2/page/2#post-688413 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 00:26:45 +0000 Parsley 688413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you chose some great things, and they work so perfectly on you, Inge. Fantastic!</p> <p>They're all great, but the one I can't take my eyes off is the sweater with the fabulous scarf. I just LOVE that outfit!</p> <p>The leather jacket is beyond fab, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2/page/2#post-688409 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 00:24:50 +0000 Sveta 688409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Slam dunk on everything!<br /> I think the way you styled this blouse with wide leg trousers is my favorite as I sen it so far! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2/page/2#post-688405 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 00:23:12 +0000 Vicki 688405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your NAS "show and tell" is AMAZING and just as Ornella said, your selections are so versatile and as seen here, work with each other so well. To think you did all of this online illustrates how well your know your style, Inge. Your new leather jacket is gorgeous and I love you in the aqua colored-sweater with the scarf. I tried on those trousers and the fabric is luscious in its texture, feel and drape as I can also see in your photo. The slipper flats have been on my radar for a while now. May slip into the "store." Did you do well? Yes! I'd say you did killer-well! p.s. How does the Valette sweater run in size? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2#post-688366 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 23:32:40 +0000 Transcona Shannon 688366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All absolutely gorgeous on you Inge! And now I have even more ideas for the houndstooth blouse... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2#post-688356 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 23:17:25 +0000 Angie 688356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You already know what I think, but I'll say it again. KILLER stuff, accept for the leather jacket. That's KILLER to the power of KILLER :)</p> <p>Enjoy your beautiful new things Inge!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2#post-688326 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 22:42:24 +0000 Jonesy 688326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such fabulousness! I really love that blue on you (in the jacket and the sweater), the fit on everything looks awesome, and that leather jacket is TDF. What a beautiful color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2#post-688324 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 22:40:08 +0000 Ornella 688324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still vividly remember your last year's NAS post and how I found your strategy amazing - it wasn't the case of K/R but simply sharing your purchases with us. They were all winners. I am assuming that shopping from abroad, with extra shipping costs and import duties potentially, require you to be really savvy, but that is only one part of the story, the other one being that you simply know what you like and what will work for you.</p> <p>It's the same story all over again, you have one compact, fabulous round of very versatile items, in fact it's a whole capsule in itself. Just remixing these will get you far. Each piece is so cleverly chosen that we should simply sit down and take notes. It must be a fantastic feeling to open the box and find that every single item in it works. Bravo! (picture me doing standing ovation )</p> <p>I couldn't pick a favorite even if I had to, but I hear you about the jacket. There is *something* about the right kind of leather jacket that makes every single outfit look and feel complete. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2#post-688311 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 22:28:33 +0000 Anonymous 688311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it all! I like the houndstooth blouse worn with a few buttons open the best, but that's just a minor styling issue of personal taste. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2#post-688273 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 22:04:37 +0000 Laura 688273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Superb, all of it!<br /> Did you have any luck with the Theory trousers? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2#post-688252 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 21:46:45 +0000 JR 688252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And I am really admiring that scarf! LOL! My weaknesses are becoming more and more obvious.</p> <p>Seriously, that sweater/scarf outfit is sublime. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2#post-688251 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 21:44:27 +0000 HelenInCanada 688251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great haul - everything looks fab on you, Inge! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2#post-688250 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 21:41:58 +0000 Anonymous 688250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love everything and you are right, that jacket is something. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-purchases-2#post-688248 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 21:40:20 +0000 Isis 688248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These all look great!
