It's not very big, and it gives the impression of not many clothes (lots of open floor space)...except for the shoe department, which is nice. </p> <p>But Nordstrom online does get most of my shopping budget. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813277 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 17:40:41 +0000 Anonymous 1813277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the red sweater in pic 4. Thanks for sharing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813261 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 16:03:09 +0000 Lisa 1813261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous items here. &nbsp;My local Nordies doesn't seem to carry as much volume as they used too, and it really shows. &nbsp;Also I see so many off the shoulder and cold shoulder tops, while I don't mind some, I'd like more variety. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813255 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 15:50:33 +0000 rachylou 1813255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh woe is me, I always forget to take a pic of Lilypup, Champion Shopper! She walked this time, no carriage. Forgot that too. Her favourite is rolling on the carpets.</p> <p>I had a thought while shopping - things were looking very wearable, which is why they were maybe looking fresh. Interesting but not unimaginable. So yes... maybe arrière garde? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813226 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 14:07:55 +0000 Angie 1813226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun to see you browse in Nordies. Where is Lilypup? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813223 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 14:00:14 +0000 approprio 1813223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for this. I've been very targeted in my shopping lately so I haven't seen much of the stores, but I do have the impression that things on the street are changing for the better. I agree that the magazines are beyond help though. I grabbed a copy of Vogue's Autumn/Winter collection roundup and it's disappointing. We may well be entering the era of the <b></b>arrière-garde </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813197 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 12:40:45 +0000 Isabel 1813197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2 and 5 are awesome. I am feeling a bit like you regarding the mags. But my ennui extends to the stores and the streets too. &nbsp;There was a post about it recently on here but I cannot find the link.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have had a chance be and about a lot lately ( including two high end mall trips ) and I think that everything looks the same. Everything. I feel as if every top that I see is "cold shoulder" or off shoulder completely. TONS of lace...on everything. &nbsp;Theses things are beautiful, just not acres and acres of them. And everyone seems to be wearing the same things within certain populations around here ( prepsters in our tri-town area, women under 30 ALL in black leggings). It's kinda bumming me out. But this made me realize that the "trendy" stuff that I see are all tops...the bottoms are firmly in black leggings or running pants.</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813166 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 09:14:31 +0000 Jenni NZ 1813166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The tent dress is a SACK! I like 4 and 5, red sweater and cropped jacket. Those parking lots can be helpful with the lights, we have them at our airport. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813149 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 07:56:31 +0000 Style Fan 1813149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the olive green dress and black jacket.&nbsp; Great photos Rachy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813138 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 06:12:36 +0000 Anonymous 1813138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your photos, Rachylou. This makes me want to go check out a Nordies. I like that tunic in the first picture. The new parking lot sounds like fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813136 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 06:06:13 +0000 rachylou 1813136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The tent dress is really good Anna! My photo doesn't do it justice.</p> <p>The whole store is quite nice now. It was looking a little junky, even at Christmas just six months ago. The third floor isn't as airy, consists of hosiery and children's, but was looking better too. It had been turning into a penthouse dungeon, lol. The sort of place where you stash scullery maids.</p> <p>Of course, there was construction still going on back then. They ripped down the parking lot and put in a bigger one. They have now like a thousand parking spaces, each with a little light. You can tell from afar if a space is taken or free. Somewhat unnecessary, but fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813125 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 03:41:19 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1813125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice pics, and the store looks pretty. I like the olive dress. Does the rest of the store look like H&amp;M? That's my impression of the flagship Nordstrom here--designer departments are beautiful, but the upper floors, where I would shop, are rather uninviting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813114 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 03:02:44 +0000 Jaime 1813114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Comparative shop displays is one of my hobbies - thanks Rachy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813111 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 02:46:14 +0000 rachylou 1813111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gucci is departing </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813110 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 02:45:39 +0000 rachylou 1813110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 &amp; 3 are Lafayette. 2 and 4 are Akris (I think). The red sweater is McQueen. </p> <p>I got a MaxMara dress at Macy's for 2/3 off. I'll pick it up next Sunday. It's a long sleeve black and white check. Maybe I should have gotten the sweater instead (also on sale): I have a lot of black and white check. But it was a long sleeve dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813063 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 23:38:15 +0000 Anonymous 1813063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first pic. I like the combo of the two mannequins. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813062 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 23:34:15 +0000 Janet 1813062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the olive dress and the black jacket (of course). Our Nordies is boring -- product of a small store in a conservative market. I have to go to another location or shop online to find the most interesting stuff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813050 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 22:53:27 +0000 Gigi 1813050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't wandered around Nordie's in a while, but I saw some really unique and kind of crazy maxi skirts on their website the other day. I hadn't heard of any of the designers before. It looks like they now have a section for "emerging designers." Some of the looks were really over-the-top, like you'd see in a fashion show. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813047 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 22:48:27 +0000 cobaltblue 1813047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the wildlife photography! I especially like the olive green dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813037 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 21:39:13 +0000 Jenava 1813037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm intrigued by the red sweater. &nbsp;I have not shopped in a brick and mortar store in so long. &nbsp;I wish I had the time; a day of shopping (with a budget!) sounds heavenly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813027 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 20:42:47 +0000 LaPed 1813027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like that olive green dress. The weather this spring has left me wanting some longer-sleeved dresses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813026 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 20:41:19 +0000 Anonymous 1813026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice. &nbsp;It is very dangerous for me to wander around Nordstroms. &nbsp;I always go in with a list.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813021 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 20:35:05 +0000 annagybe 1813021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually like the long grey tent dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813015 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 20:24:05 +0000 rachylou 1813015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok. Maybe it's all about photography. I swear these items look more exciting IRL. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wandering-around-nordies#post-1813014 Mon, 05 Jun 2017 20:23:18 +0000 rachylou 1813014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My store is looking very fresh. They seem to have switched out a number of designers. I find that interesting, because I feel the mags are supremely boring. </p>
