Europe has sales twice a year. Australia too?</p> <p>Tam, Nordies always stocks lightweight stuff at the NAS too. The US has states like Florida where it seldom gets cold, AND, they want you to be able to wear your sale items now too. So bear that in mind when you shop. You'll be able to shop for your dominant season no problem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas/page/2#post-176317 Sat, 26 Jun 2010 06:31:46 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 176317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tam - I was just going to say the same thing about Boden - not on sale in the UK! See this post is just doubly unfair for those of us not living in the UK! Next year I am seriously considering a trip to the USA in July!</p> <p>(Saturday morning winge over...) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas/page/2#post-176283 Sat, 26 Jun 2010 02:52:57 +0000 yublocka 176283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't wait to hear how pre-selection goes from Angie and all you others lucky enough to have a card. NAS last year was my first time ordering from nordstrom online and I've been hooked since! Autumn clothes are totally weather appropriate for Australia now too, which makes it dangerous although I really should focus on my dominant summer season shouldn't I?</p> <p>Argh why has Boden USA gone on sale and not Boden uk (the one that ships to Australia). I'm still lusting after the easygoing silk dress.</p> <p><a href="http://www.bodenusa.com/en-US/Womens-Dresses/Knee-Length-Dresses/WH193/Womens-Easygoing-Silk-Dress.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.bodenusa.com/en-US/.....Dress.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas/page/2#post-176224 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 23:45:06 +0000 Angie 176224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES!</p> <p>Speak to your favourite sales assisrant, Kari.

Somehow I missed that memo. How do I go about arranging to do this? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176139 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 19:04:30 +0000 agrace 176139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, I'm so happy you are going to get shorts like that. You will look fantastic in them and I will wear them vicariously through you b/c I adore the look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176119 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 18:28:29 +0000 Maya 176119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Easier said than done! I wont spend though... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176118 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 18:27:09 +0000 Angie 176118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya, stop looking at the Boden sale.</p> <p>Michelle, you can count on our NAS suggestions seeing as last year was such a success! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176110 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 18:16:23 +0000 Maya 176110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>...of all the rotten times for Boden to start their sale.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176105 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 18:10:52 +0000 Angie 176105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I forgot to answer your question, Maya. It's my other sister in law - not Greg's sister. My brother's wife. </p> <p>Hope we all find fab stuff at the NAS. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176093 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 17:59:35 +0000 Maya 176093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm probably not going to look for either the cardigan or the vest there for that reason. I like the Express short shorts, though I'd rather they had pleats, so that one is still up in the air. I'm mostly interested in boots and a blazer of sorts (strong shoulder or tailored boyfriend...either way). I'm not happy with my boot collection at all and since I wear them for 8 months out of the year, that probably isn't good. I'd be happy to come away with 2 killer pairs of boots and nothing else. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176080 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 17:15:51 +0000 Carole 176080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh boy, I can't wait. I have always felt so overwhelmed with that sale in the past, but this will be my first NAS after finding YLF so I'm anxious to experience it with some of my newly acquired shopping skills, and hopefully some suggestions from you, Angie!</p> <p>(I have been a really good girl lately, have kept shopping to a minimum in expectation of this sale) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176070 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:56:52 +0000 Angie 176070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll formalize my NAS report back through a blog post on 16th because that's when I can link to the stuff online. But I'll be preselecting with clients untill the 9th so I'll have a very good idea of what's available in all departments. </p> <p>I really hope it's a good sale. Two years ago the sale was good, but last year the sale was killer. And I did major, major damage :0(</p> <p>Also, remember that if you score two or three killer items from the sale, you've done really well. This is a sale about quality and uniqueness - as far as possible! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176066 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:44:50 +0000 Maya 176066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's what I thought Angie. I'm okay with waiting, but you will have to report anything you find that I should know about :)</p> <p>Have fun with your sis in law! is she the one in today's blog post? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176063 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:32:47 +0000 Lisa 176063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maya-ok good, I can handle 3 weeks of waiting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176059 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:20:10 +0000 Angie 176059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Megan, you can read about the NAS here, and click through some of the links too: </p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/2008/07/17/nordstrom-anniversary-sale/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2008/07/.....sary-sale/</a></p> <p>I'm preselecting on the 6th. And will have my uber stylish Sister in law from London here on the day the sale starts on the 16th. She wears a size US14 or 16 and I can't wait to dress her and see what she picks out. We are going to have so much fun! </p> <p>Maya, you need a Nordies card to pre-select. The Seattle flagship (where I preselect) is very strict about the fact that you need a card to preselect, but I remember last year that there were YLF forum member preselecting without cards in less strict branches. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176058 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:14:24 +0000 marianne 176058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am looking forward to NAS, too. I'd join in on the ban, but realistically I won't even be able to do any shopping until then anyway. I literally have gone into stores only a couple times in the last 2 months, each time for 20 min. I hope you guys feel sorry for me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176054 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:09:11 +0000 Rosie 176054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176053 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:08:32 +0000 Maya 176053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's ok Rosie. I'm not much of a bag lady anyway! I don't get as disappointed by bag loss as I do by clothing or shoe loss. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176052 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:08:06 +0000 biscuitsmom 176052@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Its great to hear about the NAS! I desperately need new Fall clothing and after hearing such nice things about Nordstroms here, Im anxious to check it out! Now all I need to figure out is how to get some serious shopping money.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176049 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 16:00:42 +0000 Patience 176049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with you, Maya. I'm pretty much set for summer and while I don't need much for fall and don't have a list a this point, I'd like to have a few pennies available in case I find something special that's warm fallish appropriate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176048 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 15:58:41 +0000 Rosie 176048@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ummm, Maya, I guess I won't tell you Mat and Nat is on sale at RueLaLa today! </p> <p>I need to be on a shopping ban until NAS. I want to continue weeding out my closet to see what I really need and want. I also want to save some $$ to make sure I can have the right clothes and shoes to pack in a carry-on for my trip to Italy in September, not to mention the shopping there! </p> <p>July 16...not nearly long enough!! Ack!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176045 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 15:39:49 +0000 Maya 176045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>NAS starts July 16 Lisa. Not a long ban at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-176039 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 15:33:22 +0000 Lisa 176039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll join in on your ban Maya, now that I found white jeans I am set for summer. Umm, just how long is this ban going to be? A month? And I agree, 4 season dressing can be a pain in the bum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-ban-until-nas#post-175985 Fri, 25 Jun 2010 12:25:28 +0000 Maya 175985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I won't be preselecting anything.
