They emailed me back this morning, and said it was all set. How easy. So I got the blouse AND at a discount with free shipping. It can't get any better than that!</p> <p>Thanks so much Tanya.... I owe you a lunch for that one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21141 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 15:12:42 +0000 Patience 21141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! you're getting the blouse. </p> <p>Sorry about the Semantiks jacket. It is in store so you can probably get customer service to find one for you. The sleeves are not too puffy. The quality is great, I think and the color is fantastic. I really want one too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21090 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 04:04:36 +0000 Sihaya 21090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chiming in late but love all the jackets too. Can't wait to see beautiful you in them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21088 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 04:00:35 +0000 Angie 21088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous Tanya and Ana! Glad you made Shiny happy. Get some sleep my dear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21084 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 03:43:45 +0000 shiny 21084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, I did a search for promo code and found that same site... so I ordered and then immediately sent an email, so we'll see if I get the discount! I like this site - free shipping AND returns - YEAH! Now *that* is how it should be done.... but I digress... </p> <p>I then went back to Nordie's and my shopping cart - I was halfway through the order process when I got so disheartened - but I decided to go ahead with the two jackets. But guess what... the Semantiks one was suddenly no longer available in my size!!! GRRRR. Yet the $ amount was showing - if I hit submit order - that it was going to charge me for it TOO - even though it wasn't available!!! There was no option to "update order" or anything. </p> <p>I'm starting to really dislike Nordies. I'm sorry, I know we have loyal Nordie fans on here... but their web site just plain sucks. </p> <p>Anyway, I cancelled out and started from scratch and I *did* go ahead and order NL jacket #1.... if it doesn't fit I'll have to make a trip to return at the store which is a pain in the butt... and I will likely get so sour that I'll stick to my local Bloomie's forever after instead.... so cross fingers for me!!</p> <p>Okay I think this grumpy-puss needs to get some sleep now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21081 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 03:30:53 +0000 Tanya 21081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny, I have read about it somewhere on some coupon board. It worked for me last year when I ordered a coat and I believe it also worked for Ana recently when she ordered some skinnies. You can either call or email them with your order number. Tomorrow should be perfectly fine. Basically they will refund your card for that 30% The only thing is, there's about 35 or so brands for which this does not apply but I don't know what they are. </p> <p>Here's the description:<br /> <a href="http://www.retailmenot.com/view/revolveclothing.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.retailmenot.com/vie.....othing.com</a></p> <p>Please read the comments under the fourth coupon on that page. Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21079 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 03:20:27 +0000 shiny 21079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya you are so awesome. :-)</p> <p>How do you know about the 30% discount? Looks like customer service is closed for the day. Wondering if I order tonight, and call tomorrow, it'll still apply?</p> <p>Patience - I don't mind a bit of puff at shoulder - but I can't do ultra-puff, if you know what I mean (lots of BR blouses are in this style this fall). What is the fabric like? Is it a quality tweed - nice feel to it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21077 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 03:03:31 +0000 Tanya 21077@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL Ana! as long as our Shiny is happy, that's all that matters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21076 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 03:02:00 +0000 Ana 21076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha--you beat me to it Tanya! I was just about to post this. You're still on top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21075 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 03:01:13 +0000 Tanya 21075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here it is:<br /> <a href="http://www.revolveclothing.com/DisplayProduct.jsp?product=NL-WS248&#038;c=Nanette+Lepore" rel="nofollow">http://www.revolveclothing.com.....tte+Lepore</a></p> <p>They have in 2! And plus, if you have never ordered from them before, there's a 30% discount ! Just call their customer service after you place the order.</p> <p>Hope you feel better now and get those jackets! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21072 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 02:58:12 +0000 Patience 21072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny, I was at Nordstrom today and tried the Semantiks jacket. It is super cute but I'm not sure about the arm holes. They are not curved in and the seam hit me on the front of my shoulder which I find very annoying. This also gives a dimple in the front of the jacket where my shoulder joint actually is. Now, I only tried the regular size because I did not have time to hunt down the petite. Maybe that would be better. Sigh. This annoyance might be worth it though. I may try it on again. Also, the shoulders are definitely a bit puffy with the gather at the seam. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21071 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 02:55:35 +0000 Ana 21071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no! This is so disappointing, Shiny. I'm sorry. I'll keep an eye out for it for sure. </p> <p>Tanya--oh Great Resident Internet Bloodhound? Could you find it (pretty please)? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21069 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 02:51:37 +0000 shiny 21069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I *didn't* get the blouse. Very sad about that right now. I put it in my shopping cart earlier this morning, and then got sidetracked with work (having been gone on vacation, work is now kinda crazy for me). When I went back after my meetings were all over (at 9 pm - that's how weird and messed up my virtual work schedule is!!) to place the order, the pearl blouse in my size was no longer available. :-(</p> <p>I chatted with the online rep and he said there is no indication they will be having any more in that color and size - and it's available in no stores either. :-(</p> <p>I saw it in a boutique shop this past weekend while we were at the beach - but that shop is over an hour away and I just don't have time in my schedule to make such a hike. </p> <p>I've done my best google searching for the blouse in pearl, but all I see is the merlot and the peacock, and my heart is now set on pearl. (Size 2 - if anyone runs across it ;-)</p> <p>My only recourse is to keep checking back to see if the person who bought it today ends up returning it because it didn't fit them. Nordie's has no ability to email you if the item suddenly becomes available, which is a shame. </p> <p>I am now hesitating and second-guessing myself on the jackets!! Just have this sour, disappointed feeling about it all. :-(</p> <p>The two jackets are still in my shopping cart if anyone has the motivation to pep-talk me into hitting the order button.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21059 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 01:54:07 +0000 Angie 21059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am a NL fan too. Her fit is fab for my body type. I have not regretted one piece I have purchased. Love her stuff. </p> <p>YAY! I’m glad you got the blouse. It’s going to be stunning. </p> <p>I like ALL the jackets. I think they are different animals. Let’s have a fashion show! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-21018 Tue, 19 Aug 2008 21:57:03 +0000 Tanya 21018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hooray, you are getting the pretty white blouse! I like all the jackets, and I'd definetly get the third one, it would be incredible with jeans. I would choose one between first and second, and my personal preferenc is for the first one, it is beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-20992 Tue, 19 Aug 2008 17:38:21 +0000 Julia 20992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all three of them but the last one is the most versatile IMO, the other two are avant-garde pieces that will stand out where ever you go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-20981 Tue, 19 Aug 2008 17:11:44 +0000 Patience 20981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shiny, I can really see you in the first jacket-- it seems so you. The second jacket is my least favorite. And the last jacket I like a lot especially for jeans-- I would consider it for myself. I can't really say how any of them will look on-- I'm not good at that but I say give at least one a go. And I really do hope you get the blouse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nanette-lepore#post-20975 Tue, 19 Aug 2008 16:50:17 +0000 shiny 20975@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't get that blouse out of my mind (even though DH said "won't you look like a pirate?" - I don't think so - I tried it on and it looked great!!). So I am on Nordstrom's and it is my shopping bag - in the pearl color. Not avail for shipment until 8/27, but I can be patient. </p> <p>I really like NL - for one thing, it fits me well. Otherwise, I'm not sure what this says about my style.... that I have a girly romantic side?</p> <p>Anyway, I'm poking around on Nordie's site and debating about a few other items. It's kind of a pain for me to get to Nordie's in person (and just not going to happen in the next few weeks). So let me know your thoughts, please:</p> <p>1) Nanette Lapore jacket that's on sale: <a href="http://tinyurl.com/63xj8z" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/63xj8z</a></p> <p>Has anyone seen this in person? Will it work for fall? Something about it really appeals to me. I like the black. I would primarily wear with jeans for smart casual look.</p> <p>2) Or this NL jacket instead: <a href="http://tinyurl.com/69qebk" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/69qebk</a></p> <p>Same questions/comments as above.</p> <p>3) This Semantiks jacket, which is being promoted off the home page: </p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/6018943/0~2376776~2378685~2378691~6018943?origin=wdlp" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/60.....rigin=wdlp</a></p> <p>Pluses: it is available in petite! And I love tweed!! And I love how it looks with jeans. </p> <p>Negative: the neckline isn't as interesting/versatile to me as the portrait collars in 1 and 2. But that's okay... it's just a different look. But will it make me look like I have no waist? </p> <p>I really love this jacket: <a href="http://tinyurl.com/5ktjgt" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/5ktjgt</a> ... but I don't find short-sleeve jackets as versatile in fall/winter, and the price is high. If I could find something similar to this at H&#38;M or similar, I would probably snap it up. </p> <p>So far I have the NL blouse and #3 jacket in my shopping bag. But what do you think about #1 and #2? </p> <p>(Or maybe I've answered my own question ... hee hee)</p> <p>Incidentally, my new Mango coat is kinda-sorta-similar to this coat, except not as full in the skirt and a bit shorter, and in cream.... and a LOT cheaper:</p> <p><a href="http://tinyurl.com/6phrbw" rel="nofollow">http://tinyurl.com/6phrbw</a> </p>
