Good job by passing stuff that did not make your heart sing.</p> <p>To be fair, I have a hunch that the stuff you would have liked most was already gone at the beginning of preselections. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unimpressed-by-nas-but-fab-fall-finds-abound#post-392961 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 00:35:20 +0000 Marigold 392961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Decisions decisions! I agree that it's better and wiser to go for the things that make your heart sing, even if they're not a part of the much spoken-about NAS. There are so many beautiful choices everywhere and you have a great taste </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unimpressed-by-nas-but-fab-fall-finds-abound#post-392956 Thu, 28 Jul 2011 00:30:18 +0000 Freckles 392956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good choice to return and look elsewhere. You already have a list of beautiful items that interest you. Good luck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unimpressed-by-nas-but-fab-fall-finds-abound#post-392908 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 23:12:45 +0000 Heather 392908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Auburn, I am loving the fall J.Crew collection, too!!! Can't wait to see your new acquisitions!</p> <p>Bravo for discernment! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unimpressed-by-nas-but-fab-fall-finds-abound#post-392892 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 22:32:34 +0000 AJ 392892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, trust your pitter patter instincts!</p> <p>Luv the Tibi dress! In fact, the colors inspired me to SYC and I came up with #1! I would not have thought to pair olive green with a forest green then add a dash of pink. </p> <p>The J crew capris color combo inspired #2. However I'm thinking it looks a bit like an airline stewardress. : P </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unimpressed-by-nas-but-fab-fall-finds-abound#post-392847 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 20:51:20 +0000 RoseandJoan 392847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ETA I thought you may like this<br /> <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/video/2011/jul/15/high-heeled-loafers-video?INTCMP=ILCNETTXT3486" rel="nofollow">http://www.guardian.co.uk/life.....NETTXT3486</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unimpressed-by-nas-but-fab-fall-finds-abound#post-392845 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 20:39:57 +0000 RoseandJoan 392845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So wise to pass on items you do not love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unimpressed-by-nas-but-fab-fall-finds-abound#post-392836 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 20:19:28 +0000 modgrl 392836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did you get that Jcrew skirt in orange? I love it! My fever pink seamed skirt would love another neon addition to the closet. </p> <p>Too bad about the first trina turk, but I know what you mean about not being that excited about everything at the sale. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/unimpressed-by-nas-but-fab-fall-finds-abound#post-392824 Wed, 27 Jul 2011 20:04:26 +0000 Auburn 392824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really tried with this year's NAS but just wasn't all that impressed. I kept gravitating to items and then realizing they weren't part of the sale.</p> <p>I came home with a few items, most of which are going back after further reflection, including this Trina Turk dress (<a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/trina-turk-spirit-dress/3181261?origin=category&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/tr.....sultback=0</a>) and this Burberry jacket in black (<a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/burberry-brit-single-breasted-trench-with-removable-liner/3180330?origin=category&#038;resultback=157" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/bu.....ltback=157</a>). </p> <p>The main reason for the returns is that I'm seeing fall items at other retailers that make my heart go pitter patter and I know THAT is where my money should be going.<br /> Like this dress (for work and play) instead of the Trina Turk one:<br /> <a href="http://www.shoptwigs.com/aurora-easy-dress-in-black-tibi" rel="nofollow">http://www.shoptwigs.com/auror.....black-tibi</a></p> <p>Or this one:<br /> <a href="http://www.shoptwigs.com/meyer-dress-in-turkish-blue-viada-tory-burch" rel="nofollow">http://www.shoptwigs.com/meyer.....tory-burch</a></p> <p>And then there's pretty much everything in the most recent J. Crew catalog, including:<br /> -The serge pencil skirt I already have (and love) in gold now in a rainbow of fresh fall colors (<a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_feature/NewArrivals/skirts/PRDOVR~47314/47314.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/womens_fe...../47314.jsp</a>)<br /> -These wool capris that I can dress up to make office appropriate--loving the dahlia, in particular (<a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_feature/NewArrivals/pants/PRDOVR~49398/49398.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/womens_fe...../49398.jsp</a>)<br /> -The oodles of fabulously bright cashmere<br /> -A new take on loafers (<a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_feature/NewArrivals/shoes/PRDOVR~49158/49158.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/womens_fe...../49158.jsp</a>)</p> <p>Well, you get the idea. Eye candy everywhere! So for now, I'm assembling my NAS returns and finalizing decisions about what I really want for the fall. Anyone else feeling less than smitten with NAS? And/or finding fab items elsewhere? </p>
