Spoiler alert: yes, I'm pretty sure it is

I decided to check out the NAS this year, since I hear so much about it but never participate. It's limited in Canada, and there's not much I need at the moment anyway, put I did want to get a few simple, charcoal gray tees for fall/winter, as an alternative to my black basics, so thought I'd try.

I landed on two things- an uber basic modal tee for layering under hoodies and for casual days at home, and a slightly less basic tee for similar purposes - which of course was somehow not on sale, because me.

The modal tee is great for it's purpose - a keeper. The slightly-more-but-not-overly-interesting Zella top was a swing and a miss; the size was huge on me, and not awesome enough to pay full price AND mess around with returns, re-orders, and sizing, so back it goes (it felt a good quality, the lettuce-edge and ribbed details were nice, and the gray was actually interesting, which isn't easy for gray - it had sort of a greenish undertone which I liked - I may well have kept if the size was right).

So that's my NAS this year lol ... at least I tried and can now say I've participated in it!
