But I'm also super-picky when looking at higher end items so I've got to love them to keep them!</p> <p>@UmmLila - I tend to either wear suit bottoms, or have a couple standard Ann Taylor separates that fill the trousers need. I did think about the Halogen kick flares, which I bought in black last year, but I find they don't really work for my office (I'm in front of customers most days so need to be more formal). </p> <p>@frannieB - thanks for the note on the plan. NAS sale can be overwhelming for me... at one point I had 145 items on the wishlist! So I had to really think about what I'm trying to do, not just what makes me go "oooh!!!" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/placed-the-big-order#post-1827513 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 00:44:36 +0000 frannieb 1827513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful choices and a well thought out plan. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/placed-the-big-order#post-1827511 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 00:41:13 +0000 Thistle 1827511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful choices! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/placed-the-big-order#post-1827499 Sat, 22 Jul 2017 00:03:27 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1827499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good choices!

I'm also continuing my trend away from black clothing, and focusing on added detail in pieces. I'm on team Order More, Return Quickly so expecting at least half of this to be returned. </p> <p>Outerwear:<br /> Goals: replace a 10yo wool winter coat. Find a new casual coat for fall. (Ok to be 2 separate items)<br /> Options: Pendleton, Tahari, North Face</p> <p>Work Clothes:<br /> Goals: find 1-2 polished, colorful jackets. Add a print and at least 1 new color in layering tops. Consider a new skirt to add variety. Add new workhorse dress for conference season<br /> Options: Classiques in Red or Blue. Tahari leather jacket, classique red print top, halogen scallop top, Vince Camuto dot print skirt, Ellen Tracy dress.</p> <p>Casual clothes:<br /> Goals: add 1 sweatshirt, 1-2 sweaters. NO CARDIGANS! (Too many in closet), and 1 pair of jeans<br /> Options: Caslon or Halogen pink sweatshirts, Nordstrom signature red sweater, EF green sweater, Caslon sweater in ivory, Wit and Wisdom jeans</p> <p>Shoes:<br /> Goals: Replace last year's Vince Booties which were eaten by the dog. If budget allows, replace tall black boots.<br /> Options: Paul Green, or Vince Camuto booties. waiting on tall boots for after round 1.</p> <p>Wild cards (these are taking the budget space usually held for a suit)<br /> Halogen cashmere wrap in gray. I spend a lot of time on planes and in meeting rooms where I can't predict the temp. This is to add to the big scarves I travel with.<br /> Le Pliage bag. I passed on this last NAS for budget reasons, and have watched for it since Christmas. If the red works, I can retire an aging red bag and upscale at the same time! </p>
