I’m waiting for the rest of my NAS orders to arrive before trying things on.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390875 Wed, 16 Jul 2025 08:54:27 +0000 Jenni NZ 2390875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha, I did the same as Sal and immediately checked the NZ price! (which shows for us on the Nordstrom site). It’s even worse than the Canadian price! Our dollar is not worth much. I also think it’s poor quality to finish blouses with just some elastic in the sleeve. I refuse to buy them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390857 Wed, 16 Jul 2025 02:01:53 +0000 Peri 2390857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that was a bit crazy. It caught my eye but at that price the temptation went away quickly!</p> <p><b>Firecracker</b>, interesting about NAS offerings being lower quality. I didn't know that, but it's done for outlet stores so it might very well be done for NAS on some things. I will never forget the sweaters I returned last year because they smelled so bad. Those were definitely made cheaply.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390856 Wed, 16 Jul 2025 01:08:04 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2390856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nodding along with a lot of the responses here. I'll add: I'm guessing they made it out of polyester specifically to offer for NAS, too. I've noticed lesser quality construction or materials on NAS offerings by manufacturers I know. The AGL ballet flats are an example that stands out in my mind. Materials and even the sizing ran differently on the NAS versions.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390854 Wed, 16 Jul 2025 00:55:36 +0000 JAileen 2390854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I assume they made a mistake and it’s actually silk. &nbsp;Still too expensive! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390853 Wed, 16 Jul 2025 00:40:02 +0000 Sal 2390853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had to check it out</p> <p>Sale price NZD 516.44<br /> After sale NZD 771.25</p> <p>Needless to say I did not click buy….. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390852 Wed, 16 Jul 2025 00:23:36 +0000 Jaime 2390852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. I would have assumed it was silk at least, and still not worth the money.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390846 Tue, 15 Jul 2025 23:35:42 +0000 cat2 2390846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is odd. The VB site has a similar blouse that’s silk on sale for less than that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390844 Tue, 15 Jul 2025 23:31:14 +0000 kkards 2390844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If Angie hadn’t said she had seen it, I was going to suggest that they had accidentally listed the fabric as poly, but it was silk. Because they have the same silhouette blouse (different pattern) on the Veronica Beard site. &nbsp;<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="https://veronicabeard.com/products/hickory-silk-blouse-dove-multi">https://veronicabeard.com/prod.....dove-multi</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390843 Tue, 15 Jul 2025 23:14:40 +0000 Irina 2390843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, the Birkin bag is the first, original Birkin, Jane’s own bag.

I even considered it but like yourself I was puzzled by the price. I’m not sure what beyond the label makes it so expensive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390833 Tue, 15 Jul 2025 21:27:53 +0000 LJP 2390833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Even more hilariously , its after-sale price in Cdn $ is $630 . That is the most outrageous price for a very basic looking blouse . Craziness . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390830 Tue, 15 Jul 2025 21:08:04 +0000 SW Ann 2390830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, come&nbsp; on!! It's the name on the label! LMAO </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390829 Tue, 15 Jul 2025 21:03:16 +0000 Angie 2390829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Added the Find!&nbsp;</p> <p>It's a mystery to me, <b>Peri.</b> Expensive blouse at the NAS price too - for polyester that you have to dry clean. &nbsp;It's a very pretty blouse - I've seen it! But overpriced in un-compelling fabric. It's banking on the status of the VB brand to elevate it. Like you, I'm not convinced ;)&nbsp;</p> <p>Prices are going up. I can see it happening across non-sale brands already. Whatever you can get at a good price that's awesome for your style - good idea to get it!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390826 Tue, 15 Jul 2025 20:51:42 +0000 Joyce B 2390826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with you, the print is nice but for the price it should be a silk blouse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390824 Tue, 15 Jul 2025 20:50:03 +0000 gryffin 2390824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Peri - Honestly I have no idea. It’s polyester! It’s a very pretty blouse and lovely color and pattern. For that money it should be silk. I’m a huge VB fan but I only own their blazers and a few pairs of matching pants. Generally workmanship is excellent, fabrics, buttons, tailoring with the sale/final sale price. Other than the scuba jacket I’ve never paid full price. But that blouse it’s really hard to justify that price even on sale. I hope it drops and you can get it reasonably. Super nice but yeah, not worthy of its price in that fabrication imho. Sad. Lovely </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-makes-this-blouse-300#post-2390819 Tue, 15 Jul 2025 20:25:14 +0000 Peri 2390819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't get Finds to work anymore...it always says to go log in, but I already am. So here's a link: &nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.nordstrom.com/s/hickory-floral-paisley-top/8291708?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;breadcrumb=Home%2FAnniversary%20Sale%2FWomen%2FTops&amp;color=427"><a href="https://www.nordstrom.com/s/hickory-floral-paisley-top/8291708?origin=category-personalizedsort&#038;amp" rel="nofollow">https://www.nordstrom.com/s/hi.....t&#038;amp</a>;</a></p> <p>I'm curious because I really like the color, print and style, but...it is $300 at the sale price and $448 after the sale. What details can possibly make a polyester blouse cost that much? So it's from a pricey brand/designer, but still. I'd understand more if it was a tailored jacket or dress, but what about a blouse justifies that price?</p> <p>Has anyone seen this? Any insights? Is there something about it that makes it worth that?&nbsp; </p>
