And as one must strive to help lighten the burden of others, I will take a few off your hands :-D</p> <p>Lesley, I LOVE everything on you, every last one of those pieces. You all have such fantastic taste, picking amazing pieces at the NAS. If I have to pick a favourite, it would be the splendid cardigan - you look so svelte and chic (not that you don't otherwise too :-D) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-picking-up-the-pieceswith-bonus-purchases-from-express#post-79111 Thu, 16 Jul 2009 02:42:18 +0000 medusa 79111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like a great set of items!

Today was better than Christmas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-picking-up-the-pieceswith-bonus-purchases-from-express#post-79085 Thu, 16 Jul 2009 01:43:59 +0000 Anonymous 79085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kristan I like how you spell ptui, that looks funny written out.<br /> Lesley I love that splendid cardigan on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-picking-up-the-pieceswith-bonus-purchases-from-express#post-79080 Thu, 16 Jul 2009 01:37:15 +0000 Kristen 79080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hideous! Horrible! Ptui.</p> <p>Send it all to me. I will take one for the team and relieve you of such hideous, hideous clothes. It's the least I can do! </p> <p>;-D </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-picking-up-the-pieceswith-bonus-purchases-from-express#post-79012 Wed, 15 Jul 2009 19:25:47 +0000 lwc 79012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone!</p> <p>I really like the pieces that I picked. I really tried to be discerning and select things that were practical, functional, interesting, true to my personal style, and appropriate for my lifestyle and climate. I decided to focus on everyday, casual, MOTG type stuff. Plus, my other retail haunts have yet to unveil their F/W merchandise. Gotta spread the love ya know...</p> <p>Items that I put back included: the black/charcoal sheath dress that Angie and San got and William Rast skinnies in black (not black-black, but more washed out).</p> <p>Patience: I looked at the other colors of the MBMJ satchel. I thought that the red one was too bright/loud for me. A tomato red, bordeaux, or some other dark, rich red would have been better IMO. The purple one was really loud too. I think that a plum, wine, or grape color would have been better IMO. The black one was just blah. The gray bag wasn't on display at our stores, however the wallet was. I think that the gray bag would be a nice one too. I just didn't want a gray bag. I love the cognac. It's such a rich, versatile color. </p> <p>So, for those who own the Express faux leather vest, I am your twin, triplet, quad, quint, chocolate alter ego, etc. LOL.</p> <p>For those who are eyeing the Express vest, it comes in black and dove(?) gray. It costs $88, looks great IRL, has minimal hardware, and it's a great vegan option, IMO. They were flying out of the store when Kyle and I tried them on. I wouldn't be surprised if this one got a write up in Lucky or something.</p> <p>I'll sing the praises of Express in another thread... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-picking-up-the-pieceswith-bonus-purchases-from-express#post-78996 Wed, 15 Jul 2009 18:32:34 +0000 julijuli 78996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the moto vest and think it will look great on you. The other pieces look good too and you can definitely carry off the longer sweater look! </p> <p>I think I'll have to go see if they have the vest at our local Express and although I'm not sure it would work for me I'm inspired by all the amazing moto vest looks flying around on this site. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-picking-up-the-pieceswith-bonus-purchases-from-express#post-78994 Wed, 15 Jul 2009 17:24:07 +0000 Patience 78994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's all fabulous, Lesley! I can't wait to see you wearing it all. The MJ bag is the same one I was considering in red. It is awesome. I already had a red bag but I can enjoy this one on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-picking-up-the-pieceswith-bonus-purchases-from-express#post-78990 Wed, 15 Jul 2009 17:18:21 +0000 cciele 78990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hideous? Nuh uh. Everything is fab, and I'm so glad you got the moto vest. That will be a great look on you. The Splendid cardigan is really special too; I do love me some Splendid! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-picking-up-the-pieceswith-bonus-purchases-from-express#post-78988 Wed, 15 Jul 2009 17:13:22 +0000 Anonymous 78988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everything looks PERFECT!

WOW, you got yourself some gorgeous pieces Lesley!! I love that drapey grey cardigan and cannot wait to see how you'll be sporting the leather moto vest.</p> <p>Sorry to hear about the shoes, but I'm sure you'll find a killer pair later in the season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-picking-up-the-pieceswith-bonus-purchases-from-express#post-78963 Wed, 15 Jul 2009 15:50:07 +0000 lwc 78963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay...it's no secret that I crapped out in the shoe dept. Still, I managed to get a few things to help me get my F/W wardrobe started. I was too pooped to put it all on again. So, I laid it out on my bed just for show. Let me know what you think:</p> <p>1. Everything<br /> <a href="http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv9/wifeybug/NAS/DSC03130.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i664.photobucket.com/al.....C03130.jpg</a></p> <p>2.

Express (minus the) leather moto vest in black and Zelda raw distress skinny jeans.<br /> <a href="http://i664.photobucket.com/albums/vv9/wifeybug/NAS/DSC03129.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i664.photobucket.com/al.....C03129.jpg</a></p> <p>It's just a start for the season. I still need a trench, dresses, pants, shoes, tops, and a few accessories. </p> <p>If any of this stuff seems hideous to you guys, let me know. Don't let me go into the season looking "through." I appreciate it! LOL. </p>
