I love everything and you certainly have a great sense of style, so cute and interesting. Love the shiny shoes. Looks like you're set for spring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569566 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 21:12:26 +0000 Alicia 569566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And Im so excited! I influenced someone! That's never ever happened before! Whoo! Happy fashion dance! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569564 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 21:11:37 +0000 Alicia 569564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have 30 days to return. The capris were the only alteration I would make. Length and maybe something with the waist. Looking at pic #1 I see the muffin top for sure! They are stretching out a bit. It's crazy how they can be a little tight in the front yet have a gap at the butt! It's like that with all my pants though. The pink shirt prob isn't the most flattering with these capris. But $19!!! And they fit everywhere else. As good as any other pants of mine. </p> <p>The cobalt blue ones I'll keep at their length. Maybe a tiny hem at the bottom. The 8 and 9 I can take back to the loft easily.</p> <p>Yeah, I have bra fittings very often actually. Only at Nordstroms. They carry the big bras and I trust only them. The one I'm wearing needs to be replaced but it's ok for hanging out at home for now. I had to choose between that and a enell sports bra this month. Enell won out! </p> <p>I think I might prefer the sperry's in silver as well. Weren't on sale but still. If I like them better than it might be worth it.</p> <p>I tried on NYDJ for the higher rise but didn't really care for them. Maybe it was the ones I tried on but they made my ahem, rear view, look weird. </p> <p>Yes, I'd love Angie's take and definitely can wait for her. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569530 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 20:42:01 +0000 Suz 569530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Alicia, how long can you hold onto these items before making a final decision and/or altering? Because my thought is that you could start a new thread on the length issue when Angie gets back from Chicago. She is really helpful on this. So how about you decide which pants to keep after wearing them a bit, and then leave the hemming until late next week? </p> <p>Denim jacket looks great! </p> <p>I would return the T in 8/9; it does not do you justice. </p> <p>Also, forgive me if I am being too forward...have you had a bra fitting and new bra recently? The reason I ask is that the fit of tops can be quite influenced by that and if you are buying up a lot of new things you might want to make sure the girls are getting the lift they need! Angie always advises this as a first step along with hair and glasses (for those who wear them) in a style refresher. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569433 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 19:10:58 +0000 Kirti 569433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the cobalt jeans too! And the denim jacket </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569401 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 18:55:25 +0000 rae 569401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The denim jacket, cobalt jeans, and shoes are my favorites from this haul! I am too over confused on pant fit to even touch the capris issue, lol. The length does look good rolled up, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569378 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 18:27:56 +0000 Laurinda 569378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm no expert on fit, but I wanted to thank you for posting #3 - I found it inspirational enough to get out my jean jacket and white capris. </p> <p>Sincerest form of flattery, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569375 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 18:27:14 +0000 christieanne 569375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just chiming in late to see your purchases. Looks like you had a good outing at Rack right off the bat.<br /> I am loving your bright color choices! I'm horrible at deciphering rises and fit in jeans and such so will stick with what I know.<br /> Denim jacket - I can rarely button my jackets similar to you so keep that.<br /> Red blouse - keep. You could layer a cardigan or jacket over it too.<br /> Light sweater - very versatile pick! keep<br /> I like the Kut cobalts - and you are going to make into a crop pant? I wasn't clear on that.<br /> Sperry's - I want the same shoe but in pewter or silver. Like ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569331 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 17:35:17 +0000 Alicia 569331@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol. I do the muffin tuck too! Hopefully they will stretch and then the tailor can work some waist magic. Just wondering if I should go right below or right above the knee</p> <p>Thanks everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569256 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 16:19:28 +0000 Anonymous 569256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Arghrrrr.... Great price and the white ones look real good with the jean jacket. I would wear them around the house for a bit. As they expand, I am sometimes able to tuck in my muffinnage LOL by pulling them up a bit.<br /> I definitely like the shorter length but let's see what the others think </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569254 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 16:17:19 +0000 Meredith1953 569254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Alicia,<br /> I really like the denim jacket and the white capris that are rolled up. The longer coblat skinnies are such a great color too! I also like the slouchy sweater in #7. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569241 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 16:05:31 +0000 Alicia 569241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Noooo! Not ticked off at all!!! I appreciate it immensely! I would like a higher rise for sure. I just hate to give up on them because they were clearance kut from the kloth for $19! Maybe the nordies tailor can help me adjust them a bit</p> <p>Below the knee length or should I have them cut to right above?</p> <p>Love all the opinions. Thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569231 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 15:56:16 +0000 Jem 569231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the red top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569226 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 15:55:04 +0000 Anonymous 569226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, I understand , believe me, I have the same EXACT issue. That is why I suggested a longer rise. It does help me a lot!<br /> The important thing is that you like them. I am not an expert, no one here is, with the exception of Angie. As usual, please take my opinion with a grain of salt and I'm sorry if I said anything that ticked you off!!!<br /> Angie will not be too active in the forum this weekend. She is off to Chicago. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569205 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 15:36:43 +0000 Alicia 569205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm always going to have some dreaded muffin top. Unless I pull them up under my armpits! Which I can't stand. Hmm. Got to be a happy medium. Any tips Angie?</p> <p>Red top ok? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569202 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 15:34:52 +0000 Alicia 569202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are actually loose at the waist. Not in front but in back. I think once they stretch I can get the back nipped. Then they won't slide down when I sit. </p> <p>What does everyone think of the rise? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569193 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 15:26:33 +0000 Anonymous 569193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the jean jacket on #3. I am not sure if not being able to close it is limiting. I really don't mind, as long as I'm not using it as outerwear.</p> <p>About the capris #1 - #5. I think the rise is too low for you. Is it almost as if I want to pull them up. I definitely liked the rolled up length better. Are they tight at the waist? I am not sure if it is the picture but I think they are a tad tight which can lead to muffin top issues. I definitely like #3 with the jean jacket, it gives you a nice waist definition.</p> <p>The color on the raspberry top is really nice on you. I would love to see it paired with a white cardi or cropped denim jacket. </p> <p>Do you own the cobalt jeans and striped top or are they K/R also?</p> <p>I can't see the jeans too well as the pic is a tad blurry. They look good as far as I can see.</p> <p>I like the sperrys and I would wear them myself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569190 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 15:24:11 +0000 kellygirl 569190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great haul! The capris look great at the rolled up length. They are really cute on you! My fave is outfit 7. I think the Diana's look much sleeker than the cropped loft cobalt jeans. Top Siders are adorable and perfect for your climate! I'm not crazy about the striped tee in 8/9--I think you should return that and get something more fun.</p> <p>ETA: I never button my denim jacket. Yours look cheeky and cute as is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569176 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 15:09:10 +0000 Jem 569176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You had a successful day at the store! I actually like almost everything. I think I like @2 rolled better. The jacket looks good to me. I don't really like the pants in #8, they are too short. I'm not sure about the Sperry's. I've been looking for some, too, but haven't decided which style I like. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nordstrom-rack-haul-opinions-please#post-569170 Fri, 16 Mar 2012 15:00:45 +0000 Alicia 569170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok first time at the rack and here's what I got. Pic 1 is kut from the kloth capris.<br /> There is a pic of regular length and one where I rolled them up. Also a pair of white ones, same style. They are in pic 3, along with a Kut from the Kloth denim jacket. There is no way I can close it over my bust but if I got one that would, it would be enormous on me. (F cup) Is this ok? And what do you think of the lengths of the capris?<br /> Pics 4 and 5 are just a cute little top. I wouldn't wear that bra with it!<br /> Pic 6 is my Kut from the Kloth Diana skinnies in cobalt. Also in pic 7 with a slouchy light summery sweater on top. Thought it might be cute with a bright cami underneath. Or over a sundress.<br /> Pic 8 is a t from the loft and my cobalt skinnies from the loft. Do you like these or the Kloth ones better? I need to hem the Kloth ones.<br /> Pic 9 is loft top with the Kloth skinnies<br /> Pic 10 are some gold sperry top siders. I saw Angie posted something similar on the white skinnies blog post. What do you think? Tied, of course. Too grandma? They feel a little slidey on my heels but the next size down was too tight on my toes. Maybe heel grip pads. </p> <p>Please give me opinions on what to keep or return! I'm also worried that the capris and pants will stretch and be saggy. Any advice? </p> <p>Thank you! Also advice on accessories would be great. Not my strong poing at all! lol </p>
