I'll join the rest of you on the bench. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/support-group-for-non-nas-shoppers#post-376563 Fri, 01 Jul 2011 02:18:39 +0000 rae 376563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Marley! I'm sorry you'll be missing an event you normally look forward to. Sounds like it is as much about bonding with your sisters as it is about clothes. </p> <p>My mom used to get me early b'day presents at the NAS - got an awesome leather vest one year. But I've sat out the years since, because we had a huge falling out and haven't spoken in almost 2 years. I *could* go myself, but what I consider a "high ticket" item is more like $100, and in that case I can usually find better deals online and stretch my Fall budget further. It's still hard to miss the sale, though. :T</p> <p>But hey, at least you and I can look forward to some bonding and "shopping" at the summer swap party! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/support-group-for-non-nas-shoppers#post-376556 Fri, 01 Jul 2011 02:06:11 +0000 Mo 376556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe I will have to restart some yoga practice I have let slide. Ooohhhhhhmmm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/support-group-for-non-nas-shoppers#post-376552 Fri, 01 Jul 2011 01:55:00 +0000 Queen Mum 376552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>well, since in just the past 5 minutes discovered radiator fluid leaking from my car...<br /> I can't even THINK about cheating ;-)<br /> I guess our mechanic's wife will be enjoying the sale in my place.</p> <p>I'm glad to see that we have a growing support group. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/support-group-for-non-nas-shoppers#post-376548 Fri, 01 Jul 2011 01:44:16 +0000 Laura 376548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Marley, that sounds painful. Sort of like an addiction you need to break. I recommend lots of tea and cupcakes while you're at that monastery - anything that brings you comfort! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/support-group-for-non-nas-shoppers#post-376518 Fri, 01 Jul 2011 00:28:33 +0000 Kate 376518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm in too! I'm thinking that I'm going to be SYC for the rest of 2011. I need to spend a bit more time thinking about my rules, but I'm definitely out for the month of July, which means I'm out for NAS. Hopefully we can be strong together! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/support-group-for-non-nas-shoppers#post-376508 Fri, 01 Jul 2011 00:18:05 +0000 Isabel 376508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in, Marley. I don't need anything and my body is changing so much with what is going on that I just don't want anything new. And for the first time in my life, I am overwhelmed by the size of my wardrobe. </p> <p>Yes, hiding in the woods on a "camping" trip is always helpful !!! ; 0 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/support-group-for-non-nas-shoppers#post-376503 Fri, 01 Jul 2011 00:02:57 +0000 Marley 376503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, NAS has always been a MAJOR event in my life for many years! Usually, it is going on when my sisters are out visiting me and we spend several days at the NAS - enabling each other to buy lots and lots of stuff!!!! This year my sisters aren't going to be here (sob) and I really don't have any money for NAS - so its out for me - and I honestly am not sure what I'm going to do with myself! Over this past week I've got phone calls from 5 different SAs (from 3 different stores!) and also a call from a personal shopper that I used a few years ago. None of them can believe I am sitting this one out - I felt bad when I told them - sort of like I was letting them down - because I have always had so much fun with them! I think I need to leave town the next couple of weeks - perhaps go on a wilderness camping trip or to a monastery for some self-reflection and meditation! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/support-group-for-non-nas-shoppers#post-376496 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 23:56:03 +0000 Laura 376496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't worry about it for a second! I see NAS as a great opportunity to pick up some basics that I've worn out in the past year (i.e. stockings, socks, bras if I'm really lucky) and then fish around for one or two killer items. If I don't find those items, then I'm pretty much out too.</p> <p>Angie makes NAS fun, in my opinion. Before I found YLF, I could have cared less about NAS. So I'm just here to enjoy, whether I get 2 items or zero </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/support-group-for-non-nas-shoppers#post-376488 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 23:47:49 +0000 Medicechic 376488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm out too. Never been to a NAS. Mo don't feel bad, I don't know what I'm missing either. Closest one is 2 hours away. Off to shop my closet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/support-group-for-non-nas-shoppers#post-376485 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 23:41:17 +0000 Mo 376485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am out, but I honestly don't know what I'm missing because I've never lived closer than 90 minutes from a Nordstrom in my life! I am also strapped into my $125/mo budget. Pretty sure that wouldn't get me very far. It will be hard to see all the fab finds. We'll just have to get creative in our closets to distract us!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/support-group-for-non-nas-shoppers#post-376483 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 23:38:13 +0000 Marley 376483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need one - BAD. I know that Kim has declared that she is skipping the NAS this year. I am also. Anyone else out there? We need to band together, because the next couple of weeks are going to be KILLER (and I don't mean in Angie's "killer" terms!) Who else is there? Are Kim and I the only ones who are going to "deprive" ourselves this year? (sob!) </p>
