(Blouse, sweater and skirt are all AT, so thankfully the&nbsp; &nbsp;tights and booties are not). Shown is the plum sweater; I also have worn the black which is crisper and dressier, a bit, but I liked the lower contrast today. The lace skirt hopefully will see more days with sheer hose but I wanted to have it in rotation, hence fleece tights today).</p> <p>What do you think? </p> <p>Also: tale of Nordstrom's great customer service. After I worked on the oxblood leather jacket collar some more, I decided to make a go of it. However it had gone on sale, which was not long after I bought the second jacket,&nbsp;although that&nbsp;&nbsp;was not the one I&nbsp;planned to try&nbsp;to keep. (Are you confused yet?) The SA gave me a price adjustment, yay! But then I got the notification of my returned jacket, and it was only credited at the sale price, it seemed, which put me back to square one.</p> <p>So back to live chat again. It turns out the price adjustment was made on the returned order, hence the&nbsp; &nbsp;credit return appeared to be only partial. So she figured all that out and prepared the "real" price adjustment for the original order.</p> <p>I am blown away by all of this. Yes, I felt the price adjustment was appropriate but still, I do not take for granted this customer accomodation. Nordstrom's has my number for sure.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
