I like them better than the other booties too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1522549 Sat, 18 Jul 2015 17:11:35 +0000 Banoffi 1522549@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AviaMariah - &nbsp;I just saw your post. &nbsp;I'm 5'2" and usually take a small (or petite small), but sometimes an XS if the top is running large. &nbsp;I'm an inverted triangle so often XS is too tight through the back and upper arms for me. &nbsp;Hope this helps. &nbsp;I should try to take photos of the sweaters in better light so you can see the fit better.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1522546 Sat, 18 Jul 2015 17:07:04 +0000 Thistle 1522546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Some fabulous picks! I do like the rock studs. If you can handle the heel, the AGLs are gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1522530 Sat, 18 Jul 2015 16:40:51 +0000 Kari 1522530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Before reading your commentary, leading through the pictures alone, the AGL booties, striped tee, and Nike shoes (my sister got those too) jumped out as my favorites from what you tried out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1522450 Sat, 18 Jul 2015 14:25:20 +0000 catgirl 1522450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the Halogen flats - they run a little large but they stay on the feet remarkably well and work for wider feet too.</p> <p>I love the AGL booties - they look timeless and yet have that strict edge.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1522443 Sat, 18 Jul 2015 14:19:54 +0000 Angie 1522443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YAY. Glad you're keeping the chic and comfy boots. And the turtleneck looks amazing with the leggings.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1522376 Sat, 18 Jul 2015 12:53:25 +0000 Banoffi 1522376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all the feedback. I had more time to re-try on some of the items, and will be keeping the AGL booties and not the Louise et Cie ones. The AGL ones are far, far more comfortable. I wasn't as keen on them initially as they look a lot like the LK Bennett Chelsea boots I bought at last year's NAS, only with some heel. ("boring" wasn't the right word).</p> <p>I tried the Vince Cableneck sweater with some faux leather pants from Banana Republic and liked it better (new photo attached). &nbsp;I think I'm just in love with the softness of the yak wool! I ordered it in a size XS and will see if that fits better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1521992 Fri, 17 Jul 2015 21:15:29 +0000 Angie 1521992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the AGL booties. Why do you think they look boring??? They are much nicer than the other ankle boots in #3 - which are a bad ankle fit. The AGLs have beautiful clean and interesting lines to my eye. MODERN. Very chic.&nbsp;</p> <p>The Halogen T-straps look amazing in the animal print.&nbsp;</p> <p>I don't know if you can go down in the Vince crew neck because it fits you under the arms quite snugly already. Mine fits a little bigger on the body actually. I'm ordering a size down to compare fits too.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the two black and grey tops too, Nice haul.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1521981 Fri, 17 Jul 2015 20:58:56 +0000 AviaMariah 1521981@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the fit of the Vince sweaters on you but maybe they're bigger IRL than in pictures. &nbsp;For my information are you usually a S? I'm thinking about ordering the Vince crew neck and trying to decide whether to stay with my regular size or size down. Also, how tall are you? Just trying to determine if it's going to be too long on me. Petite tops usually fit me better so I'm taking a chance with a regular size. I love the Ted Baker dress and VC top on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1521528 Fri, 17 Jul 2015 09:09:35 +0000 Anonymous 1521528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't realize that the Barefoot Dreams cardigan was on sale (thanks for the information). &nbsp;I just bought it. &nbsp;I have been stalking this exact items for some time now. &nbsp;I think will be keeping a lot of what I bought. &nbsp;I am pretty excited. &nbsp;</p> <p>I would recommend that you consider the booties that are most comfortable. &nbsp;Let us know what you decide. &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1521486 Fri, 17 Jul 2015 05:19:09 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1521486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It sounds like a good portion of your picks worked out--not bad for online ordering! <br />I like the Ted Baker dress on you. I'm guessing the XS might be better in the two sweaters, given the sizes you are taking in other items. <br />The AGL booties aren't waterproof; you'd just need to treat them as you would other leather shoes and boots. I think they are really pretty. If they aren't what you're wanting, though, there will be plenty of black non-sale booties. If you're on the fence, you could hang on to them for a little while, as you look around, since Nordstrom is generous with returns.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1521449 Fri, 17 Jul 2015 03:04:09 +0000 Banoffi 1521449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your feedback. &nbsp;I was hoping to be more excited by the items, but I was generally underwhelmed. &nbsp;This is actually good news, as it means I'll "save" loads of money! &nbsp;lol</p> <p>I will revisit AGL booties tomorrow. &nbsp;Do you know if they are waterproof (I live in Michigan, with cold and slushy winters). &nbsp;They are certainly more comfortable than the Louise et Cie ones, which is an important consideration for me. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1521431 Fri, 17 Jul 2015 02:42:49 +0000 Jaime 1521431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the AGL booties on you and they don't look boring to me. The cable knit sweater, Ted Baker dress and top in #19 all look especially nice to me. Great selections. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1521423 Fri, 17 Jul 2015 02:21:06 +0000 Anonymous 1521423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the halogen pointy flats on you (hope I like them on myself, the spotted one is en route to me). &nbsp;I also like the tops in pics 19 &amp; 20. &nbsp;Overall, looks like a good batch of stuff for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-1st-batch-of-boxes-arrived#post-1521413 Fri, 17 Jul 2015 01:54:29 +0000 Banoffi 1521413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My first batch of NAS boxes arrived today. &nbsp;More coming tomorrow and next week. &nbsp;I spend way too much under the assumption that lots of the items wouldn't work. &nbsp;;)</p> <p>I borrowed a selfie stick to take these pictures and am not really sure how to use it. &nbsp;Sorry if these are at weird angles!!</p> <p>I wanted a pair of black leather (not suede) booties with around a 2 inch heel. &nbsp;The AGL booties are very comfortable, but they're kind of boring. &nbsp;I really like the Louise et Cie booties, but they are very snug-fitting. &nbsp;I'm wearing them around the house to see if they will stretch out a bit (I'm usually a solid 6-1/2, which is what I ordered in these).</p> <p>I got three pairs of the Halogen pointy toe flats to see if any work. &nbsp;They do run large, but they work. &nbsp;I think the toe box would be too tight if I sized down half a size. &nbsp;I really like the spotted one, and think I'll keep them.</p> <p>I got two Vince sweaters, both in size small. The textured crewneck seems like it's way too big on me, but maybe that's just the fit of it (??). &nbsp;The cable knit turtleneck is very soft (not scratchy at all), and seemed to fit better. &nbsp;I am considering ordering these in a size XS to see if they fit better.</p> <p>The Halogen drape collar jacket fit well (Petite small) and will work well with my fall and winter work wardrobe.</p> <p>I ordered the Ted Baker dress on a whim. &nbsp;I wasn't sure if the pattern would be too overwhelming on me or not. &nbsp;It fit really well and feels nice. &nbsp; &nbsp;I am usually a petite 4 in dresses and got the size 2 (Ted Baker sizing) in this dress.</p> <p>I was really hoping the purple Tahari dress would work, but it doesn't fit through the bust (loose fabric). &nbsp;I can't size down as it fits everywhere else. &nbsp;Sadly, this will definitely be going back.</p> <p>The Vince Camuto striped shirt and v-neck shirts both fit well (petite small).</p> <p>I got the Nike Free shoes for the gym. &nbsp;They are super comfortable. &nbsp;I normally size up half a size in running shoes, but these fit fine in my usual 6.5.</p> <p>The Barefoot Dreams drape cardigan is super soft, but I'm not really sure I need another robe....</p> <p>My closet is a mess right now! &nbsp;lol </p>
