It's only partly honest to say the weather's been too cold...I'm still not sure about the look on me and am perhaps too swayed by their high comfort factor. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653911 Mon, 02 May 2016 19:17:00 +0000 Barbara Diane 1653911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I commented before, but my problem items seem to be the ones worn only once or twice. I keep them for more dressy occasions, which are rare. I may start wearing them when I usually would dress more casually.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653896 Mon, 02 May 2016 18:59:24 +0000 Elle 1653896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are not alone. &nbsp;I have four things, three past their return date (oops). One is a long black blazer bought for an interview that never happened but might be useful in the future. Two are body con long sleeve t's (fortunately on &nbsp;sale) and I don't feel body con anymore. &nbsp;I may wear them under (way under) things. &nbsp; The final is a cobalt blue sweatshirt which I bought at the end of the season and should wear next fall. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653837 Mon, 02 May 2016 16:31:58 +0000 milehighstyle (Linda) 1653837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Only the spring items I've purchased and can't wear yet BECAUSE IT KEEPS SNOWING.&nbsp; It's supposed to get up to almost 80 degrees later this week so fingers crossed.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653779 Mon, 02 May 2016 14:03:37 +0000 texstyle 1653779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a few things - a Pleione top I bought nearly two years ago and have yet to wear (it was one of those "just in case" items and it was obviously a mistake).&nbsp; A tencel denim shift dress that may read too "country" now that I've already removed the tags. A lovely charcoal jcrew blazer that was always just a bit too classic dressy for my real life but I still keep thinking I will wear the darn thing. I'm sure there must be one or two more things but I can't think of them right now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653770 Mon, 02 May 2016 13:48:21 +0000 Janet 1653770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Still have tags on the Anthro pants in peach and mint -- I've worn the blue ones. Not sure if I'll commit to the others yet, but our weather also turned cold again so opportunity to wear them has been limited.</p> <p>The dresses below still have tags on. The tee dress is waiting for warmer temps. Actually, right now they all are. </p> <p>Sandals are being evaluated. I like them but want to make sure they're comfortable. </p> <p>I don't take off tags until the first wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653715 Mon, 02 May 2016 11:08:34 +0000 Style Fan 1653715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love Bonnie's maxi skirt.&nbsp; I am trying not to buy much these days.&nbsp; Saving up for a very expensive Sarah Pacini summer sweater. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653709 Mon, 02 May 2016 10:49:07 +0000 April 1653709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to say nothing, but then I remembered a certain elegant, ladylike dress from Badgley-Mischka that was purchased to wear to the Kentucky Derby, but then we didn't go because the horse we were invited to root for ended up not qualifying.</p> <p>I returned my gigantic hat, but loved the dress too much to send it back. &nbsp;<br />Plus, Angie says it's okay to keep occasion items on hand for when an occasion arises. &nbsp;They're not meant to be worn all the time, they're more like wardrobe security blankets, meant to stave off last-minute, "I have nothing to wear" panic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653697 Mon, 02 May 2016 09:41:10 +0000 Summer 1653697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Aida,</b> " I like to let new pieces marinate a bit ".&nbsp;&nbsp; Yes, that's <i>exactly</i> what I do, too, only&nbsp; I've never managed to articulate it so aptly.&nbsp; Glad I'm not the only one!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653680 Mon, 02 May 2016 08:56:24 +0000 Staysfit 1653680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A pair of grey lightweight wool pants.

I bought a pair of sandals this winter that I just wore for the first time the other day. And I ordered a navy dotty dress from Ann Taylor for my parents' anniversary party that I'm 75% sure I'm keeping, but I've left the tags on for now because I haven't tried the whole ensemble with shoes yet.</p> <p>Once I decide to keep something I take the tags off and wash it, so I might have some washed but not worn items - I don't think so but I don't really keep track of such things. And I might have some out of season items put away in my storage bins, but usually I clean things before I put them away, so probably not. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653635 Mon, 02 May 2016 04:09:19 +0000 rachylou 1653635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm changing out my closet right now and I found something else ... a pair of dark caramel culottes in a drapey fabric. i think I got that the end of last summer and didn't get the opportunity to wear them... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653563 Sun, 01 May 2016 22:36:22 +0000 carter 1653563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not as many as I thought but still more than I'd like. 2 pairs of shorts waiting for Summer. One pair of white jeans in the wash-several-times-before-hemming cycle. Two tops I bought a couple weeks ago. One pair of navy slacks I bought last Fall but never wore. I will fix that soon I hope. Only one guilt-inducing item: a gorgeous turquoise silk sleeveless blouse that I bought earlier this year. It was too big in the arm holes, but the next size down wasn't available. I thought an easy alteration on the shoulder would make it perfect, but now that it fits I'm not so sure I love it on me:-( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653556 Sun, 01 May 2016 22:17:16 +0000 Anonymous 1653556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a few although I have been trying very hard not to buy off season or too dressy. There is a sort of polka-dot button down from NAS with long sleeves. It was too hot to wear when I bought it, then I just wasn't reaching for buttondown shirts. I have a swim suit that has never been worn bought several years ago when I lost a lot of weight and thought I should have one. I even bought a cover-up for it. Then I have a fairly recent purchase of a long black EF jersey skirt. It was on sale and seemed the sort of thing one should have. I should see if it is still returnable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653550 Sun, 01 May 2016 22:05:06 +0000 Lyn D. 1653550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes- my Japan purchases.<br />A beautiful culotte in lined wool and a shawl-neck coat </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653545 Sun, 01 May 2016 21:58:03 +0000 Sal 1653545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing right now. &nbsp;I have not made any new season purchases that I am yet to wear.</p> <p>I am one of those people who wear a new piece as soon as I can, even if I am overdressed for the occasion. &nbsp;</p> <p>Our exchange policies here are not as good as some places so if I am unhappy with something I decided in a couple of days.</p> <p>I did make two off season purchases last winter - one which became a great summer addition and one that was worn once and sent on the way. &nbsp;I don't like thin tees, so I am not sure why I bought it (disappointed in myself). &nbsp;They both sat unworn for about four-five months though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653534 Sun, 01 May 2016 21:47:37 +0000 Angie 1653534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing!&nbsp;</p> <p>Although I haven't worn these sandals yet - the tags are off.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653530 Sun, 01 May 2016 21:44:56 +0000 catgirl 1653530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Two pairs of shoes - these Docs and a pair of Frye boots I shamelessly copied after seeing them on a character in Orphan Black. Trying to make a decision. Can boots be stretched vertically? They are a little shallow for my high volume feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653529 Sun, 01 May 2016 21:44:11 +0000 kkards 1653529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>3 things....2 are outside my normal comfort zone, and I'm still trying to decide.....and one which should be me, but is still unworn, so I'm suspecting I should just retun it....and I have one item that the tags are off, I've worn and realized I should not have. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653510 Sun, 01 May 2016 21:03:51 +0000 Aquamarine 1653510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just one blouse and a pair of sandals. It hasn't been warm enough for me to wear either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653507 Sun, 01 May 2016 20:58:44 +0000 Barbara Diane 1653507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think I've cut the tags off, but not worn, a few items. An EF thin wool sleeveless too short to wear as a dress item-bought on sale at the outlet and not returnable. Trying to forgive myself as I was trying to stretch myself. Maybe I'll figure out how to wear it next year. And a fancy for me top that is too small now.&nbsp;<br />I tend to return the items I don't wear, although sometimes later than Nordstrom would prefer.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on/page/2#post-1653502 Sun, 01 May 2016 20:31:09 +0000 retailgirl 1653502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too many things to count! I work in retail and I found a few winter things on sale that I'm saving for next year. I recently lost some weight and replaced my basic pants in a smaller size, and they're waiting to go to the tailors for hems. I have some shoes that I need to break in, but it's always easier to choose the old ones that are comfy. I know I buy too much but it's my hobby, I could have worse vices! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on#post-1653499 Sun, 01 May 2016 20:14:59 +0000 JAileen 1653499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have three dresses and a blouse. Oh, and a pair of shorts and two pairs of crops. The first two dresses I bought at the end of the season last year. The third one I nearly wore at Christmas time. Now that it's warming up I'm sure I'll start wearing the first two. I bought a white denim jacket to go with the first one. I hope it will look ok..</p> <p>I just bought the shorts and crops and will wear them shortly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on#post-1653494 Sun, 01 May 2016 19:50:30 +0000 Contralto 1653494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Two pairs of shoes, actually -- one the Steve Madden Petty boot in cognac, and the other Steve Madden Gigi sandal also in cognac. &nbsp;The first one I should wear -- the second is waiting for summer/new pedicure! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on#post-1653492 Sun, 01 May 2016 19:44:27 +0000 Aida 1653492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely not alone Deborah! I usually have a couple items with tags on; I like to let new pieces marinate a bit, and also buy a few things off-season. Right now I've got 4 pieces with tags on: orange kick crops, white/gray puffer vest, yellow floral tunic, and white cropped straight jeans. The first two were off season purchases, and the second two are waiting for alterations ;)</p> <p>I also bought an oversized denim jacket on final sale which ended up being just too oversized. Planning to sell that one.</p> <p>PS that printed jacket is gorgeous!! I'd be wearing that one right away. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on#post-1653487 Sun, 01 May 2016 19:08:43 +0000 Cassie Lyons 1653487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A deep purple, wavy, fitted mid-thigh pencil skirt.<br />A black 3/4 sleeve shirt with a large flower print.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-hanging-in-your-closet-with-tags-still-on#post-1653482 Sun, 01 May 2016 18:58:54 +0000 Gail 1653482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm off the top of my head without even looking I have a few items:<br />Vince silk shift dress from last summer, I need to have the right occasion and tanned legs that hasn't happened yet.<br />A denim dress, need the same thing<br />The WHBM back asymmetric hem dress , not sure if it is really me and struggling with shoes that look right for it.

I bought the cap-sleeve version at NAS last year and have had a couple opportunities to wear it, but haven't. </p> <p>I also have some items that I've worn a handful of times that I thought would be much more useful than they are. Most aren't a year old yet, so I guess their utility might still be proven.&nbsp; Mostly fairly plain light sweaters&nbsp; that I thought I'd lay under or over, but are a little too simple to wear alone and not quite the right weight or length the layer with in AZ. </p> <p>I also have some much-loved favorites that get worn less in my new climate but hopefully will serve me well on many trips home for years in the future. </p>
