I did order both sizes of #4 as I was a little uncomfortable in the XS.</p> <p>I am a little sad about the shorter jacket in #6 as I really did love it in the store - it made me feel sassy and sophisticated and chic in an "I'm not trying to be any of those things but I just am" sort of way. However, I'll bow to the collective YLF wisdom on this since it looks like the budget is getting blown on tops. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-dressing-room-shots-what-to-buy#post-391501 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 18:35:53 +0000 Scarlet 391501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You must have 2! The boucle jacket is great too, but I get it if the weight is not right for your lifestyle. Both leather jackets fit nicely, especially the second, but I am not sure about the colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-dressing-room-shots-what-to-buy#post-391318 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 14:16:15 +0000 Atlantia 391318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#4 is really pretty, I like it very much. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-dressing-room-shots-what-to-buy#post-391317 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 14:14:10 +0000 Queen Mum 391317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Angie too... 2 is fab, 3 will be fab sized up and 4 is very very fab on you. The jacket is nice, but I"m not swooning. Wish we could see it unzipped with a fun scarf. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-dressing-room-shots-what-to-buy#post-391313 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 14:09:16 +0000 Freckles 391313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with Angie's response. Awesome job choosing such beautiful items! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-dressing-room-shots-what-to-buy#post-391205 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 05:36:38 +0000 Sylvie 391205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie as well!</p> <p>I really appreciate getting your definitive opinion, especially on #3. Cuts the order down.</p> <p>Do I need to size up on #4? Or is the XS ok?</p> <p>#5 was just too hot for me. I run really warm *all* the time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-dressing-room-shots-what-to-buy#post-391201 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 05:28:54 +0000 Sylvie 391201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Jenava!</p> <p>1) By BP cardigan, do you mean the boyfriend cardigans?<br /> 3) I was actually considering the bright green. :)<br /> 5) This coat was really warm! I have two winter coats already and I live in CA so it wasn't going to work for me unless it was an "autumn" coat.<br /> 6) I also prefer the shorter one. I would wear it unzipped most of the time but it needs to look good zipped as well, which is usually more challenging, so that's how I photographed it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-dressing-room-shots-what-to-buy#post-391197 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 05:20:05 +0000 Angie 391197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 is fabulous!!</p> <p>#3 will look great if you size up. It's definitely too small in this size. </p> <p>#4 lovely!</p> <p>#5 is my best!!! Why did you pass on the look? </p> <p>Pass on #1 and #6. Neither of them are 10's and you deserve something that is </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-dressing-room-shots-what-to-buy#post-391186 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 04:45:57 +0000 Jenava 391186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you should<br /> 1. Pass on the cardi. I personally stick with the BP. cardigans. Cheap, so easily replaced, and a million colors!<br /> 2 LOVE this. Good buy.<br /> 3. I only like it pulled up. The color is drab. Can you find something in a jewel-tone?<br /> 4. This is lovely. I don't think you need to size up unless it uncomfortable for you<br /> 5. I LOVE this on you. Sad to hear it's a no?<br /> 6. I'm not quite sure either is a 10, sorry. I prefer the second, shorter one to the first one (due to the pockets at the hips on the first). If you are hesitant I'd wait. I think brown would be a better color for you...and, would you wear it zipped always? I think the type of jacket like the second one look better unzipped. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-dressing-room-shots-what-to-buy#post-391174 Mon, 25 Jul 2011 03:56:44 +0000 Sylvie 391174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hope you can handle another NAS question and answer session. :)</p> <p>I've been away from the board from a while because I just moving to the opposite coast of the country. The advantage of my new location is that I now have easy access to a Nordstrom and could try on things before placing an order.</p> <p>1) Basic cardigan that was on sale for $30 (not part of NAS). It comes in black, white and raspberry as well. I'm debating between the black and the green. Worth getting or should I get the Halogen v-neck instead?</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/halogen-merino-wool-v-neck-cardigan/3167820" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/ha.....an/3167820</a></p> <p>2) Someone else on this forum rocked this purple feathery top a little while ago. Also considering the black/yellow/white version. Wish it was on sale.</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3191560" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3191560</a></p> <p>3) I was a little dubious about the cowl neck but I should have trusted Angie's judgement. They didn't have the S in stock, so I tried on the XS. Should I size up when I order? The SA advised sticking with the XS. In the two left photos, I have it pulled all the way down, and in the rightmost photo, I've let it settled into folds. Feel free to suggest colors to me as well.</p> <p>4) They didn't have the S so I tried on the XS. Should I size up? Or is it too long for my short waisted self? Again, I'm considering the other print as well.</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3195287" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3195287</a></p> <p>5) Already decided against the blue boucle coat but thought you might like to see how it looks on a different body. It's very warm and I liked that it gives you arm coverage while still maintaining the 3/4 length sleeve silhouette.</p> <p>6) I really fell in love with these two leather jackets (one on the left is suede). I'm in desperate need of a lightweight non-gear coat and I've been striking out with the trenches. Can you please give these a numerical rating? Wearing a leather coat brings up some ethical issues for me, even though I'm already hypocritical enough to wear leather shoes and silk tops, so one of them has to be 10+ in order to break my self imposed illogical rules.</p> <p>Feel free to be blunt - no offense will be taken because I'm really trying to limit the spending.</p> <p>Thanks in advance! </p>
