Have a wonderful vacation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-report-no-picsyet#post-1943578 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 04:02:29 +0000 Windchime 1943578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My eagerly-awaited NAS order finally arrived yesterday. Between work and getting ready to leave at 4 a.m. tomorrow for for a two-week trip, there’s been no time to take pics. ( I promise I will when I return!)</p> <p>But I still wanted to report...</p> <p>The 1901 shirtdress, in navy plaid, is beautifully constructed! Length and proportions are good on tall me except...I was dismayed that it felt a bit constricting across my shoulder blades. Unfortunately, that’s probably going to be a dealbreaker for me because of how I need to move my arms for keyboard playing and conducting. The fit everywhere else was fine, except the waist hit a little higher than my actual waist. But I think the next size up would be too big in general. I had high hopes for the dress and am disappointed it’s probably a no. Again, it’s SO well made!</p> <p>I ordered two black skirts to try, by Vince Camuto and by Halogen. After doing a sit test in each, I preferred the Vince, although the slit in the Halogen is a nice detail. The Vince had better coverage while sitting. I haven’t yet decided for sure to keep the it; I first need to try some stylings when I have more time. Also, I might want to keep looking for a pencil skirt instead.</p> <p>A happy surprise was the Caslon roll neck sweater, in burgundy. A lot of the online reviews say it was too big and baggy. I found it wonderfully soft, it fit me really well, and I love the detail on the bottom back of the sweater and on the back of the collar. I also loved the particular shade of burgundy and the fact that the sweater has some wool in it, for added warmth. Definite keep!</p> <p>The Minkoff Koso booties, in black, are gorgeous! They are very shiny, more than they appear in the store photo. I was concerned, with the pointy toes, they’d be too tight, but they felt surprisingly comfortable. Again, I need to spend more time in them to be sure, and I also need to think how to style them. They could be a very fun wild card.</p> <p>The 1901 knit dress was a no-go on me in my usual size. I might order it up a size. Again, an item with excellent quality and fun details!</p> <p>So at this point, I’m definitely keeping the Caslon sweater, probably keeping the Minkoff western-style booties, and possibly keeping the Vince<br /> midi skirt. And I’ll try the 1901 dress in the next size up. I may yet order a couple other things from the sale to try. </p>
