Because of the neckline and voluminous fabric, I would size down or err on the smaller side of your normal sizes.</p> <p>A friend I shopped with bought that first Max Studio dress in brown. It seemed like a good day dress, if you don't mind sweater dresses with short sleeves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/potential-nordstrom-rack-purchases#post-266552 Wed, 15 Dec 2010 12:02:53 +0000 Mellllls 266552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thanks ladies! they opened a nordstrom rack by my home recently and i received a gift card. to be honest, the store just overwhelms me...i've never been a nordstrom shopper (i know, i know it's a sin). anyway, i need to use this gift card (it was a promotional one when they opened and it expires soon) but i walked around there yesterday and couldn't figure out what to buy! also, at this point, there isn't anything really i need (besides a winter coat, and i didn't see any that i liked). so i guess i was just looking for ideas...i want to get something great with this gift card because i so rarely shop at the store. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/potential-nordstrom-rack-purchases#post-266510 Wed, 15 Dec 2010 08:19:53 +0000 AJ 266510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need to check out that skirt at my store.

Wardrobe workhorse for sure. Doesn't wrinkle and is machine washable.

How can I help? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/potential-nordstrom-rack-purchases#post-266411 Wed, 15 Dec 2010 04:01:44 +0000 Queen Mum 266411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought the first dress in purple and ended up returning it mainly because all they had in the store was a large and when I got home I realized it looked a bit sloppy on me. It did seem a nice quality knit though.<br /> If they are still available in January I might give the medium a try. I do remember thinking if I were to keep the dress I'd get rid of that drawstring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/potential-nordstrom-rack-purchases#post-266391 Wed, 15 Dec 2010 03:17:26 +0000 Sveta 266391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think Laura bought that Karen Kane dress during NAS and then returned it...<br /> Kari, I love this skirt on you!<br /> Also that long sleeve tee is in YLF store:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/store/2010/10/26/caslon-rib-knit-tee/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/store/20.....-knit-tee/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/potential-nordstrom-rack-purchases#post-266388 Wed, 15 Dec 2010 03:14:06 +0000 Mellllls 266388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thanks kari! that skirt looks great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/potential-nordstrom-rack-purchases#post-266379 Wed, 15 Dec 2010 03:05:58 +0000 Kari 266379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Melllls, I have a very similar Michael Kors ponte knit skirt. I think mine is the previous year's version in a different pattern, sans zippers and with different curved seaming than the one that you linked to.<br /> The skirt ran a bit large, but I initially thought it was too small and tight on the lower thighs. Then I realized that the little threads they use to tie the back slit of the skirt together needed to be cut, and once I did that it had a more flattering pencil skirt silhouette.<br /> On mine, there is a lining underneath the skirt, and the knit is fairly thick, so I don't really have to worry about which undergarments to wear under it. Something to consider if you are looking at knit skirts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/potential-nordstrom-rack-purchases#post-266377 Wed, 15 Dec 2010 03:00:51 +0000 Mellllls 266377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>has anyone seen/own/tried on any of these? i'm hoping to make a nordstrom rack trek soon.</p> <p>sweater dress--<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3128430?origin=category&#038;resultback=179" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/31.....ltback=179</a></p> <p>ponte knit skirt--<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3105289?origin=category&#038;resultback=256" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/31.....ltback=256</a></p> <p>dress--<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3101460?origin=category&#038;resultback=160" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/31.....ltback=160</a></p> <p>long sleeve tee<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3145077?origin=category&#038;resultback=1353" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/31.....tback=1353</a></p> <p>flats<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3143959?origin=category&#038;resultback=185" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/31.....ltback=185</a> </p>
