Just submitted my NAS order! Thoughts?

I just submitted my NAS order - I'm excited! I wish I could get to the store in person, but it just won't work out till at least next week. I had my cart heaping full of items, but one can only do so much. So here's what I ended up with:

http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....5&P=3
and

I think those eyeshadow shades will look lovely with my new haircolor and that grey dress.
Crossing my fingers that things work!
I'm "watching" a leather jacket, skinny jeans, and two other dresses. Hopefully they'll still be around when I get back from my trip.

Great picks -- Kristen & I both tried the LAMB jacket and it was truly great with the ruffles contrasting with the menswear-type fabric. I love that you scored some new make-up too! I'd forgotten all about the cosmetics department in the NAS flurry to find clothes ...

I have that dress in my cart at the moment as well. I'm trying to imagine different ways of wearing it, but I think the fit is lovely and will be great on you. Looks like some great scores! I love the jacket! Can't wait to see pics of them on you!!

I LOVED that jacket and wished I had even one appropriate place to wear it, and I was very much considering trying that dress in blue. AND I was eying that MAC kit, but the Sweet Tease color set.

So, um, you got everything I wanted but couldn't justify getting after the rest of my haul. I look forward to enjoying them vicariously through you!

Awesome Kristen. There were things you got that I would die to have, so we can just live vicariously through each other. If the items I got don't work, I'll definitely go back to the drawing board. There's so many lovely dresses it was just too hard to decide.

Great choices! That blazer is really cool with those ruffles, and the sheath looks so sleek. Can't wait to see you model them

Wow, superb choices Sarah! I cannot wait to see you model the L.A.M.B. jacket! I was secretly hoping you would get it Now I can enjoy this NAS purchase vicariously through you

Very nice choices. Angie tried that dress on when we went to the NAS. She is wearing it in the pics I posted. I thought it was a lovely fit. It's a beautiful well made dress and so versitile. What color did you order?
This knit fabric that seems to be prevelant this year is so good for it's stretchability and non wrinkle properties.

san, I ordered the grey dress. I'm so hesitant to spend more on something in a color that I haven't tried in person. I'm so disappointed that I can't get to a store. I have more items that I want to try, but won't be able to until next weekend at our store. I hate ordering tons of things online without trying them.
Anyway.
I wanted a leather jacket this year really bad. I haven't had one in the past few years. But, I told myself earlier this year that I'd rather have a really cool pair of brown boots. I couldn't reconcile what color jacket to wear with those boots, so I have opted to wait a bit.

Quick question, if I ordered this morning, how soon do you think I'll get my order? I'm afraid because I ordered it (without thinking) but I'm going to be out of town and I dont' want it sitting on my doorstep for two days.

One more question, I want to try these:

http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....hoppingbag
http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....veforlater
(can't decide which color)
Do you think any of it is worth me trying (ordering online) or do you think these may be available after a week. I have no idea how quickly the NAS items go... I can't keep everything, but I'm sure not everything I ordered will fit me perfectly. Any tips or advice?

Sarah!!! I WANT that jacket, I'm going to be jealous for the rest of the evening;-)
The dress is fantastic too, I just know you'll look stunning in it.

I just saw your last reply.
What a fun dress and that's a pair of really cool jeans!!

WOW, I LOVE that leather jacket! I would go for the grey one, but maybe that's just personal preference.

Sarah,
I love your choices!!
I also ordered that dress in blue and am hoping that the color will work for me, I hope it is not too bright. I ordered a jacket very similar to the one you are considering from nieman marcus and was disappointed in the brown, it was muddy in comparison to the picture. I cannot find the link. I think the grey would be lovely on you!

If you want the leather jacket, maybe it's best to order it now. It seems that leather jackets are selling like hotcakes at NAS.

Kristen tried on that dress, and the pocket placement was a little tricky on her because they sat right on the widest part of the hip.

Sarah, I like the grey for the leather jacket. I think it would be unique and versatile.

Can you have someone lookout for packages while you're away?

Wonderful choices, Sarah. I saw the dress on a couple of the sales ladies at Nordies today (many of them wore NAS goodies to be "live ads" and it worked quite well :-)) and it's fab. And I believe that Angie bought that jacket; she told me about it yesterday and I saw it in person this morning, it's absolutely gorgeous and I'd wear it in a heartbeat. Enjoy.

I returned my LAMB jacket. The sleeves were too short on the smaller size. Oh well! I've got killer loot and I hope the jacket works for you, Sarah :0)

Oh, yeah, the pockets were tragic on that pink dress, so be warned!

I would grab the leather and jeans now -- things at my store were selling like hotcakes last night, and they were wicked slow at the pre-sale.
