I may ask one for help next year at the store further away. The one in my store is really nice and she ordered a lot for me last year but even the items I brought home I returned or have hardly worn.<br /> I'm looking forward to shopping my closet, and making new outfits.<br /> I think this year is the antidote to last year's NAS, and maybe I'll find balance next year.<br /> And I do reserve the right to contact the Stylist. I think I may use her during the year.<br /> I did try on maybe 30 items. Some for size information.<br /> Obviously not a small or classic pair of hoops, but a fun summer impulse purchase. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trip-to-nordstrom-with-encore-department#post-1830438 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 22:52:47 +0000 teatime 1830438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for the Navabi tip, its a new site for me looks interesting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trip-to-nordstrom-with-encore-department#post-1830329 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 19:14:00 +0000 Angie 1830329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Putting in a big plug for Navabi.com. Their plus sizes are amazing,&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trip-to-nordstrom-with-encore-department#post-1830313 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 18:21:20 +0000 bridgie 1830313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the dress and earrings.&nbsp; Perfect for a hot summer day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trip-to-nordstrom-with-encore-department#post-1830310 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 18:10:15 +0000 Barbara Diane 1830310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Computer ate my reply so I'll add more later. Dress looks completely different on me. I'm wearing it on my shoulder and with the tie wrapped twice under my bust for an empire look. I wouldn't have even tried it on from the find.<br />My earrings are blue with silver beads. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trip-to-nordstrom-with-encore-department#post-1830206 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 14:53:40 +0000 Kirstjen 1830206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know the feeling of not feeling the plus size love at Nordstrom, but this is, I think, where having a personal shopper helps. &nbsp;They gather stuff from throughout the store &amp; I've always been amazed at what straight size stuff fits. &nbsp;I need bigger on top due to my bust &amp; apparently I also have a very broad back. &nbsp;Who knew???</p> <p>Anyway, I hope you share a pic or link of the dress. &nbsp;And hoops are, IMO, just a great basic earring, as long as they are not huge. &nbsp;If they're huge, then they are only for fun. &nbsp;But you need a few things that stretch your sense of personal style &amp; also things that just make you smile, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trip-to-nordstrom-with-encore-department#post-1830192 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 14:40:39 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1830192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like a nice day. I was rather meh about the plus selection at this year's NAS - lots of basic silhouettes, jeans and dress pants and basic tops, etc., but nothing that made my heart go pitter patter or seemed like an epic bargain. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trip-to-nordstrom-with-encore-department#post-1829916 Wed, 26 Jul 2017 22:30:30 +0000 Angie 1829916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Barbara, the frock and hoops sound lovely. Care to share the Finds when you have a moment? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trip-to-nordstrom-with-encore-department#post-1829828 Wed, 26 Jul 2017 19:56:16 +0000 Barbara Diane 1829828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I made a rare trip into the city Monday and along my route was a larger Nordstrom to check out plus NAS options. The selection was limited but I asked the SA if there were styles there earlier that were no longer there and she said no. I ended up buying a full price dress that fit many but not all my boxes. The big one was a very lightweight but not see through print in saturated colors with ELBOW length sleeves. The con, why put any wavy horizontal lines on this print! But we have had many days over 95 degrees this summer, and I am glad to have this option. Also bought a pair of fun hoops that were on clearance.. Hoops are something I don't normally wear. </p>
