Thanks for all the fab suggestions. I tried on a bunch of stuff but nothing really wowed me too much. I ended up buying 2 BP camis for layering, a black Caslon long sleeve layering tee, 6 pairs of Nordstrom tights (3 black, 2 grey, 1 purple to try) and this Hinge scarf in the fuchsia color: <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/hinge-leopard-print-eternity-scarf/3195906?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=303" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/hi.....ltback=303</a></p> <p>So I just stalked up on some basics. I didn't buy mediocre stuff just because of the good deal and I'm proud of myself for that! Last year I went nuts and bought stuff I didn't need... this year I know better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-would-you-buy-at-nordies-if#post-420667 Mon, 12 Sep 2011 01:00:02 +0000 Sveta 420667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey, Marianna, what did you buy?

(Thanks.) Yes, I guess it's a good idea to see what's on "your list" or what wardrobe needs you have at the moment. Happy shopping. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-would-you-buy-at-nordies-if#post-420516 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 20:02:07 +0000 Laurinda 420516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd limit myself to leather, and something that was a treat/splurge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-would-you-buy-at-nordies-if#post-420482 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 19:25:15 +0000 catgirl 420482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A leather skirt.

Boots? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-would-you-buy-at-nordies-if#post-420468 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 18:58:18 +0000 Jenava 420468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marianna, I only bought two things so far; the lace classiques blouse and leather pencil skirt from NAS.</p> <p>But I also try to stock up on BP. camis and cardis during the sale...and don't forget hosiery! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-would-you-buy-at-nordies-if#post-420377 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 16:40:04 +0000 MsMary 420377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the Halogen cardigans. I have this crew neck (which is really almost a scoop neck) in several colors:</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/halogen-crewneck-cardigan/3133151?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ha.....sultback=0</a></p> <p>And I LOVE this new v-neck, which I bought at the NAS in three colors (the purple magenta is to die for!):</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/halogen-deep-v-neck-merino-wool-cardigan/3189217?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ha.....sultback=0</a></p> <p>I have this Hinge print blouse and love it.

Chicago gets cold in winter. How about a blazer or sweater? You probably already have some blouses and tanks that you can layer under them from AZ. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-would-you-buy-at-nordies-if#post-420336 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 15:14:00 +0000 Mac 420336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wait... you're back in Chicago, now?

Like boots or a leather jacket or a trench or something statementy?<br /> If not, and if it were me, I'd maybe find a super-versital blazer that I could use to smarten up any work outfit throughout the dominantn seasons. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-would-you-buy-at-nordies-if#post-420294 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 14:01:47 +0000 Laura 420294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great pendant necklace! You have to see the metals in person to find out which one looks best. You should also look at some flats from Classiques or Halogen ... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-would-you-buy-at-nordies-if#post-420284 Sun, 11 Sep 2011 13:37:13 +0000 ButterflyLady 420284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that necklace (and am excited that Nordies ship to the UK now!) - what sort of colours do you wear in clothing?

I always get overwhelmed when I have an opportunity like this and end up buying nothing, or buying what I don't really need. So far I'm thinking about getting a long sleeve Caslon layering tee. Haha. I feel like I should take advantage of this opportunity and get some good deals for fall.</p> <p>Will you help me brainstorm some ideas and post some links? I will be at work from 12-6 and I need to purchase today! Will be checking the forum from my phone throughout the day for ideas! Thank you. </p>
