These are some great finds. I am seeing things I totally missed now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705823 Sun, 31 Jul 2016 00:43:49 +0000 Anonymous 1705823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I posted to you but I think it got lost!<br />Anyway, I love your boots. They look great on your foot.<br />Also, the red jacket is fabulous - a perfect fit on you. Will you wear it to work? It's very tidy-looking without being too corporate. I also like the blue one, and like how you've styled it with the upturned sleeves. Funny that the size is the same as the red! My guess is it's a quality control issue. The same sizing issues happen to me at Banana Republic a lot.</p> <p>Hey, wide leg pants can be your signature!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705812 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 23:45:51 +0000 Nadya 1705812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are replacing some trouser jeans that I liked to wear with blouses - a few examples below. It's a "flowy over volume" look but I'm OK with that as I have a tummy. And I'll try them with maxi cardigans and my long vest to see if that works. I think they also look good with fitted tops - a more 70's look, like a slim ribbed sweater just not on me right now :-). </p> <p>It will be fun to compare what works for us as fall gets here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705687 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 16:51:44 +0000 Cerinda 1705687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great loot! &nbsp;I actually like the extra casual vibe of the blue jacket almost as much as the sleekness of the red.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705658 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 15:45:54 +0000 unfrumped 1705658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super scores.

What straight leg jeans are you wearing? They are great with the boots as well. Agree the hinge blouse with the wide legs look great.<br /> I am also a sucker for wide leg jeans. I feel like they balance my "curvy" back side.<br /> Also digging the apples, is that blouse a recent purchase? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705590 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 12:56:14 +0000 Nadya 1705590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your finds, especially that red blazer- great color! And I like that style of jeans a lot - I bought them too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705563 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 11:27:44 +0000 chouette22 1705563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, what great finds for you! You look fantastic in everything you bought. I also love the shoes in 3 (they are Eccos, right?).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705533 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 08:49:04 +0000 rachylou 1705533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree these are winners </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705495 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 04:41:52 +0000 Anonymous 1705495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You found some gems that look great on you. The blazers fit differently but both look great. The blue one has a more casual vibe but still dresses up a pair of jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705487 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 04:25:58 +0000 Runs With Scissors 1705487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Suz, Peri, Muffin and crazyone! &nbsp;I do feel like I got pretty lucky -- especially since I'm not that familiar with Nordstroms brands (this is my first NAS, too). &nbsp; &nbsp;Both the brown blouse and wide-leg jeans count as HEWIs for me, in fact. &nbsp;My last wide-legs bit the dust a few years back and I have been seeking a replacement ever since.</p> <p>Peri -- yes, I love the apples blouse! &nbsp; Such a fun print. &nbsp;I was tempted by it earlier in the season but &nbsp;since blouses are hit or miss for me, I decided it was too likely to be a return to bother. &nbsp;But then it went on sale ... I love it so much I grabbed a couple more prints! &nbsp;For me they will be useful year-round. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705475 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 03:59:29 +0000 crazyone 1705475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that the red blazer is an amazing fit on you! &nbsp;Though the blue is good in a more slouchy relaxed way. &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705428 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 02:31:36 +0000 Muffin 1705428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The red blazer is great on you, color and fit! The blouse &amp; booties outfit is super cute too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705418 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 02:21:42 +0000 Peri 1705418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the blouse on you, and the jeans look great. I have that apples top, don't you love it?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705416 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 02:20:06 +0000 Suz 1705416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all fantastic on you! I can see your love for the booties -- how wonderful that they worked out.&nbsp;</p> <p>And that blouse! WOW! It's just lovely on you. Don't you just love a wild card purchase that works out, like that? It would look great with the blue blazer.&nbsp;</p> <p>I agree the fit of the red one is neater (stunning on you!) but the blue is, as you say, a kind of nice slouchy alternative -- because it's knit it seems to work anyway. Nice!</p> <p>And the jeans are no-brainers for someone of your body type. Retro 70s fabness with the new Hinge blouse.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-winners-born-adia-hinge-blouse-caslon-blazer-nydj-wide-legs#post-1705404 Sat, 30 Jul 2016 02:05:06 +0000 Runs With Scissors 1705404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is the post for the things I'm thrilled with! &nbsp;In case it helps others considering these items.</p> <p>First off, the Born Adia booties (1 and 2). &nbsp;Love, love, love, love! &nbsp; The size 11 arrived today, but I also have size 10.5 on the way because so many reviewers said they ran a little big. &nbsp;I think I will be happier with the 11. &nbsp;I also ordered the burgundy color for comparison ... kept thinking about it. &nbsp;The brown will be hard to beat though.</p> <p>The Hinge blouse (also in 1 and 2) was a long shot for me -- almost didn't try it because I have a poor track record with both sleeved blouses and the boho look. &nbsp;And the color brown, for that matter. &nbsp;But somehow this ended up being perfect! &nbsp;I got the size S.</p> <p>The blue Caslon blazer was the second thing to arrive (after the Munro Drew booties, which didn't work). &nbsp;I was thrilled with it and wore it the next day -- &nbsp;thanks to aggressive AC (and mild winters) this is a four-season garment for me. &nbsp;I ended up getting blue, red and gray and figured I'd send the red back (it was the only one in stock when I first ordered) because it's the least versatile color. &nbsp;But then the red arrived and it was significantly smaller -- and a much better fit than the blue. &nbsp;I really, really don't want to send it back. &nbsp;Maybe the gray will go back -- it hasn't arrived yet. &nbsp;If it fits like the blue, it's definitely history. &nbsp;If it's like the red ... I'll have to think about it. &nbsp;Since I wore the blue one I can't send it back! &nbsp;That said, until I saw the red, I was happy with the fit of the blue one. &nbsp;It has a nice slouchy 80s vibe IMO. &nbsp;</p> <p>The NYDJ trouser jeans (5) may not be everyone's thing but were a no-brainer for me -- I love wide-leg jeans whether they're trending or not, and the trouser styling of these means they can be dressed up a little. &nbsp;They are too long which so I'll need to decide where to hem them. &nbsp;I tried sizes 4 and 6 and kept the 4s which is my usual size in NYDJ.</p> <p> </p>
