Frances, they are open until 10pm. </p> <p>Sveta, can't wait to hear - what a trip! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-184390 Fri, 16 Jul 2010 04:37:06 +0000 Frances 184390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rosie and Melissa, it sounds like we'll all be making a beeline for that Halogen moto jacket! This is going to be so much fun...I wonder if Nordstrom's will extend their hours at all or if we have to be out of there at the regular closing time (which I'm assuming is 8:30 or 9:00 p.m. on a Friday night?)...</p> <p>Melissa, I love my Ecco Hanna Button Toe pumps! It's probably a good thing they weren't available in the red last year, because I don't know how I could have chosen between the plum and the red. I had a hard enough time choosing between the plum and the ascot. The plum has turned out to be surprisingly versatile, and I loved how cushiony they feel around the back of the heel.</p> <p>But I digress...which such long shopping lists, I'm sure we'll all walk away with at least a few treasures! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-184377 Fri, 16 Jul 2010 04:04:26 +0000 Jenava 184377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, you can also go to the concierge desk and let them know you want an appointment. They will take care of you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-184300 Fri, 16 Jul 2010 00:39:22 +0000 Sveta 184300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Melissa I will. I am frantically preparing now - making the list and checking it twice :-)<br /> My only regret is that I may not be able to get Angie's recommendations as I need to leave home around 6:30 - it is 3:30 AM Angie's time. I really wanted to have an appointment as I have never been to Nordstrom and I am afraid I would be completely lost there - and I do not have much time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-184285 Thu, 15 Jul 2010 22:30:55 +0000 Melissa 184285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Frances, my list is way long, too, so we can definitely help each other be reasonable! It sounds like we'll be perfect bag-shopping buddies, since I am also hoping to get a briefcase-type tote for work. I'm excited to hear about your Ecco Hanna Button toe pumps, as I am eying those for my fall wardrobe.</p> <p>It was ridiculously difficult for me to actually make a plan and a list, but thankfully I did (this will be the first time I have ever shopped with an actual plan). I found it really useful in quantifying where I really need to focus my $$ for this fall. It turns out that what I think I need to do is really concentrate on building up an appropriate work wardrobe, since I will be transitioning from being a student into working in a (casual and semi-artsy) office full time.</p> <p>Here's my list:<br /> 1) Shoes and boots. I'd like to get a few pairs of 2.5" heels for work, and maybe a pair of boots and a pair of booties (hoping they have the classiques peep-toe booties in my size). I'm willing to put a large chunk of my budget into the shoe department.<br /> 2). Leather briefcase/tote style work bag, preferably in a versatile color (black, wine, ?)<br /> 3). Tops, pants, and skirts. 1-2 of each. I know it sounds like a lot, but I am going into this with almost nothing, and I do have to look professional at work.<br /> 4). Jackets/sweater/cardis. I have a few things I'd like, but I really need to come away with a black jacket (I like the looks of the Halogen moto) and a black/grey cardi. If the Classiques lamb jacket were to fit me perfectly, it could easily steal my heart.<br /> 5). Statement piece. I would love to find something perfect that really speaks to me and makes me feel great when I wear it. If I'm going to spend money on a statement piece, it needs to be durable, and to continue fitting me as my size changes a bit, so this will probably be a jacket of some kind, like the previously-mentioned lamb jacket, or the Makali plaid rosette jacket has caught my eye. I might need to be talked out of the plaid jacket, in which case I will rely on Frances and Rosie to set me straight.<br /> 6). Accessories. Sort of boring, but I have a list of basics like tights and camis to pick up.</p> <p>Sveta, I hope you'll post a report on your trip into the U.S. for the sale--it would be really interesting to hear what your first Nordstrom visit is like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-183540 Wed, 14 Jul 2010 17:47:31 +0000 Dana 183540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm heading out from Denver to Chicago in the morning. The impetus for the trip was the NAS. I thought it would be fun to go to it in a large city. That said, I've resisted the pre-select. It's so anti-climactic. </p> <p>I haven't seen too terribly much in the catalogue, but I do like the Badgley Mischka gray satchel on p. 24 and the cute capelet on p. 25. The only color they have it in is teal, and I'd only wear it with jeans, so I'm not sure. I need a suit, and I know there's a Rebecca Taylor that might be cute, and I can also use some basic pants and sweaters (yawn.) What I'm really hoping to find is something really special that I can't find here in Denver. Happy Shopping, everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-183521 Wed, 14 Jul 2010 17:11:31 +0000 Rosie 183521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, am I correct that tonight at midnight Pacific Coast time we can shop? I have way too many shopping dates this weekend to stay within my nonexistent budget! </p> <p>I also liked some of the leather/pleather jackets. (I sadly ended up returning the Ashley B one after all my raving because I found it hot and thought it could fit me better.) </p> <p>Also the Halogen (I think) black moto jacket looked cool and comfy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-183445 Wed, 14 Jul 2010 12:35:58 +0000 yublocka 183445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Honestly I'm not really in love with anything in the catalog. I'm hoping seeing items online + extra stuff + pics on all you lovely ladies will inspire me.</p> <p>2 purchases I'd love to make:</p> <p>1) OTK boots. However the <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2988176">Eric Michaels ones</a> are still my fave so far and are yet to go on sale. Boo!!</p> <p>2) A slouchy crossbdy bag. Haven't seen anything in the NAS catalog. Has anyone seen any of these instore? I'd prefer grey, but would go with black. Otherwise I've bought one here last weekend that would do, but I still have 7 days to return it if NAS shows up with something better!!</p> <p>Good luck shopping everyone </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-183384 Wed, 14 Jul 2010 03:41:07 +0000 Frances 183384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I perused the catalog online over the weekend, but regrettably, I did not take notes because my internet connection was inexplicably slow. I feel like I haven't done my homework, though I did spy a gorgeous red Kate Spade bag, some beautiful dresses and the red Ecco Hanna Button Toe pumps that I already own in plum. So tempting!</p> <p>But here's a generalized list of items I've been accumulating in my memo notebook:<br /> 1) New wallet<br /> 2) Evening bag (lost a couple to a mold infestation in my closet this past rainy season)<br /> 3) New work bag (briefcase type of tote)<br /> 4) Brown dress pants (had to retire my favorite pair this past winter)<br /> 5) Gray dress pants (had to retire my favorite pair this past winter)<br /> 6) The perfect trench (the quest continues...)<br /> 7) The perfect white shirt (the quest continues...)<br /> 8) The perfect sunglasses (the quest continues...)<br /> 9) A lime green skinny belt<br /> 10) Brown knee-length riding boots<br /> 11) The perfect dark rinse trouser jeans in petite length (the quest continues...)<br /> 12) And of course, I will keep my eyes open for dresses &amp; skirts, which are new to me</p> <p>Way too long a list for my budget, so Rosie and Melissa, I'll be counting on you to save me from myself! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-183354 Wed, 14 Jul 2010 02:54:00 +0000 Cookie 183354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The closer we get to Friday the more excited I am! My list:<br /> OTK boots in black (I have brown and LOVE them!)<br /> Suzi Chin embellished gray/black dress<br /> Sam Edelman peeptoe platform booties<br /> Tweed equestrian jacket to wear with a new pair of black riding boots<br /> Tweed cropped jacket<br /> Cole Haan crossbody bag<br /> Tights and leggings<br /> And my son wants True Religion jeans and shoes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-183346 Wed, 14 Jul 2010 02:43:10 +0000 Sveta 183346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is my first NAS and the first trip to Nordstrom ever. It involves getting up at 5:30 AM, driving for 2.5 hours and crossing the border from Canada into US - all for my 10AM appointment.<br /> I am so excited! My list is long and my budget cannot really match it but this is my list in the order of importance:<br /> -boots and other footwear<br /> -premium denim jeans<br /> - trench coat<br /> - jackets<br /> - whatever else catches my fancy ( if I have any funds left)<br /> I really need to concentrate on basics as I am severely lacking the fundamental pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-183311 Wed, 14 Jul 2010 01:45:59 +0000 Sparky 183311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What I still would like (I already ordered a few things):</p> <p>bras and panties ~ some are in the NAS sale!<br /> a classic, simply styled leather jacket (love the Lafayette 148 one on page 12 but beyond my budget)<br /> a cardigan in a color (all I have is black, gray and white)<br /> skinny jeans</p> <p>I started that other thread on the catalog. It's true there are some great ideas and a few wish lists there, but they're kind of buried. Thank you for starting this thread, Rosie! It's so helpful to see how people are approaching their autumn/winter wardrobes this way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-183307 Wed, 14 Jul 2010 01:41:50 +0000 Maya 183307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OTK boots, tweed Sanctuary shorts, and elasticized flats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-wish-list#post-183291 Wed, 14 Jul 2010 00:49:23 +0000 Rosie 183291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taylor, that sounds like a fabulous idea!!
