This is my first round order from NAS. Please ask any questions about my reviews. Hope these help!
1. Eileen Fisher waxed swing jacket- I really like the feel of the waxed jacket and the fit was great. It was sufficiently light weight as that is what I was looking for. I love the dark indigo color. It did not look good with summer dresses since it is hip length with no darting - my cropped denim jacket looked much better. It did look with slacks and jeans which is not what I was looking for. So I had to send it back since it did not fill the need I was looking for.
2. Vince Breton Stripe Cashmere sweater- I loved the fit of this sweater, it is a little cropped and I did size down since it is Vince. It looked good with jeans as well as work slacks. BUT- it was so itchy that I had to send it back. I would have worn a cami with it to reduce the itchiness, but it really bothered me around my neck. So it went back.
3.Vince Ribbed wool & cashmere sweater- I loved the feel of this sweater and I love the ribbed detail. It did not itch at all. The funnel neck looked terrible on my short neck and big bust so I had to send it back. If you have a long neck and smaller bust, I think this sweater would be a great win.
4. Gentle Souls Carole zip sneaker- I thought these would be a great way to partake in the sneaker trend through the winter with warmer socks and higher shaft. The soul of the shoe is very comfortable with arch support but the toe box is a little narrow which may start to be uncomfortable after a while. The leather may also stretch to accommodate my feet. I am on the fence. These look great with a skinny ankle jean.
4. Aquatalia Franco bootie- I have several aquatalia booties that have gone the distance for me through the winter and I just got 2 pairs resoled because I love them and wear them into the ground. These fit great around the ankle but the sole was hard and a bit uncomfortable, unlike my previous booties from aquatalia. I have to say that last year I bought some higher shaft ankle booties which are not nearly as comfortable as my older booties- I am guessing they have changed their materials. So I am sending these back and will use my older booties for another season. I have the Paul green booties on order also, but I may just wait til next year to replace my booties.
