I have been looking at Country Road's turquoise items, thanks for the recommendation!. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too/page/2#post-2208358 Wed, 07 Jul 2021 23:27:56 +0000 Suz 2208358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for posting this, <b>Angie</b>. I'm starting to strategize. So far, my thoughts:&nbsp;</p> <p><u><b></b></u><b>NO boots or booties</b><u><b></b></u>. I still have tons of great booties that are not worn out, and I even have plaid combat boots from a few seasons ago. Plus another lug soled pair from last year.&nbsp; If I get the yen for something later in the season, I can reconsider, but assuming I'm still comfortable in the old booties, I'm going to keep wearing them. I <b>could</b>, however, go for another pair of sneakers of some kind. I wear them consistently, so why not.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>No gear</b> -- I'm set for that, having spent most of my pandemic fashion dollars on same. </p> <p><b>Underwear only judiciously</b> -- I need to see what's offered in my size and although I typically use the NAS to stock up, I'm not desperate for an upgrade this year. I <b>could </b>use a t-shirt bra, if one shows up in my size. We'll see.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>What I want:&nbsp;</b></p> <ul> <li>A comfortable, easy to wear and easy to dress down pantsuit to replace my old BR Black Watch plaid. The jacket of that suit is still wearable but the pants are pretty worn.&nbsp;</li> </ul> <ul> <li>A couple of sweaters to update my knitwear capsule. I need to retire a few items.</li> </ul> <ul> <li>A casual lightweight coat.&nbsp;</li> </ul> <ul> <li>In my dreams -- an upgrade/ update for my beloved J. Crew utility coat. SUCH a great coat.</li> </ul> <ul> <li>And also a very lightweight parka to replace my North Face, which was bought second hand and is getting a bit tired looking.&nbsp;</li> </ul> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too/page/2#post-2208298 Wed, 07 Jul 2021 18:50:32 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2208298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your dress looks fab, Angie. The palette is a bit different what I think of as your signature colors (sour brights), though it clearly works into a capsule of yours. I bet it looks just gorgeous on you and it will be yummy with that turquoise coat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too/page/2#post-2207956 Tue, 06 Jul 2021 12:56:36 +0000 RobinF 2207956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh boy, it's so hard for me to think about winter dressing when I am loving our currently hot weather.

It's going to be an interesting NAS and shopping season as we head back to almost "normal". It will mean different things to different people.

Complete with white loafers </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too/page/2#post-2207688 Mon, 05 Jul 2021 13:40:52 +0000 Anonymous 2207688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your new mesh dress is fabulous. &nbsp;I miss Sweet Pea and the like and still have an old mesh two piece dress in a black and white floral. &nbsp;The skirt got damaged with a hole but it does not show because of the pattern an is ok to wear at home on a hot day.<br />Thank you for the NAS tips. &nbsp;I have a list in my head but I should write it down. &nbsp;I am hoping for warmer shades of colors this fall at retail and need an overhaul for my wardrobe for colder weather. &nbsp;I need a strategy and warm long pants. &nbsp;I will be looking for black and white flats, denim bottoms that pull on, thick Ponte fabric, more color and light neutrals to wear on a daily basis. I do not need more booties or even boots unless in a narrow shaft and faux fur lined white snow boots. I got rid of lots of sweaters that are too short and my wool pants and most of my jeans. &nbsp;A few are left to try for fall but all of most will probably have to go.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too/page/2#post-2207680 Mon, 05 Jul 2021 11:51:56 +0000 Tanya 2207680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a stunning dress, it goes with half of you wardrobe!&nbsp; I can't wait to see it in action.</p> <p>I like your NAS strategy and have prepared similar lists myself.&nbsp; I am looking for the following: <ul> <li><u></u>Replacement/upgrade of some outerwear (black knee length puffer, black leather moto, off-white leather moto)</li> <li>(Almost) anything in eggplant and teal</li> <li>Burgundy pantsuit or blazer</li> <li>Black and teal sheath dresses</li> <li>Dressy leather (not suede) booties in burgundy and navy</li> <li>Two-toned watch (silver-gold)</li> <li>Some very specific basics</li> </ul> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too/page/2#post-2207679 Mon, 05 Jul 2021 11:45:49 +0000 Kathie 2207679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! The print on the dress is so striking. Absolutely gorgeous. </p> <p>I’m taking my clothes shopping very slowly this year. Many of my favorite pieces went unworn last winter, so I’m going to take the time this fall and winter to see what I do wear, and where I have holes, with a more hybrid office/work-from-home life. I’m going to check out the tops- Zoom meetings are clearly here to stay, and I need a bit more variety/interest from the shoulders up. My collection of statement shoes don’t help much in that regard. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too/page/2#post-2207653 Mon, 05 Jul 2021 05:47:07 +0000 chewyspaghetti 2207653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A few things that are on my cold weather shopping list are shoes/boots/booties<br /> and sweaters (both pullover and cardigans). I found myself wearing a light jacket or cardigan to work, even on warmer days. My one last pair of boots are shot and I'd like to replace them, as well as expanding my bootie collection (which is currently just a single pair of black booties). Assad as it makes me, I realize that black isn't the best color for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too/page/2#post-2207647 Mon, 05 Jul 2021 03:36:09 +0000 Brooklyn 2207647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful dress. I love it too!</p> <p>Lots of turquoise appearing here in Australia. (Check out Country Road if you are interested.) Maybe this will be your year </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too/page/2#post-2207645 Mon, 05 Jul 2021 02:52:19 +0000 Bijou 2207645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous souvenir of your trip - that dress will be stunning on you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too/page/2#post-2207643 Mon, 05 Jul 2021 02:40:01 +0000 smittie 2207643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh wow, the dress is gorgeous, Angie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too/page/2#post-2207634 Mon, 05 Jul 2021 01:35:21 +0000 nemosmom 2207634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great dress!

Enjoy!<br />I already started on my fall/winter shopping with some sweaters, loafers and a reversible puffer (should be fun switching the colors). Wool pants and jeans &nbsp;are on the list. And a pair of lined, leather high top Converse (cannot find it anywhere in my size!). Will be shopping for more winter coats in the fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too#post-2207620 Mon, 05 Jul 2021 00:26:32 +0000 Windchime 2207620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great dress, and it plays well with so many things already in your wardrobe! I need to update my black pants for work. I bought a beautiful pair from Classiques Entier on the NAS in 2016; the cost is down to pennies a wear, and it’s time for a change. A warm, long-sleeved dress would be welcome, also. &nbsp;We’ll see… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too#post-2207617 Mon, 05 Jul 2021 00:05:19 +0000 cat2 2207617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, blackberry is more purple than eggplant, which has a bit more brown. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too#post-2207614 Sun, 04 Jul 2021 23:40:46 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2207614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Eggplant is just another word for blackberry, right? ;)<br /> I’ll wear the color but not the baba ganush please. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas-shopping-strategy-autumn-winter-too#post-2207613 Sun, 04 Jul 2021 22:57:18 +0000 chewyspaghetti 2207613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know it's coming, but I can't really think about fall dressing yet.
