I have tried to be very careful this year with NAS purchases - only buying what I think will be real workhorses. One decision I made after my first NAS was to avoid buying anything with wool in it - even the nicest merino or wool blend or cashmere sweaters end up not getting much wear because I find it hard to figure out how warm or cold my office is going to be on any particular day.

Here is what I got so far - waiting for a couple more items as well as a larger size of the Halogen skirt. All opinions welcome, and since most items still have tags attached, feel free to suggest if anything is not up to par and needs to be returned.

1 - Halogen seamed skirt and Frye Veronica boots. Still need to figure out if the Fryes will loosen in the toe box - the fit in the toe box is pretty tight. I ordered the skirt in the next size up to see if the slight wrinkling in front will be improved.
2 - Vince boatneck (not really NAS but on sale) and "eurosneakers" (Josef Seibel Caspians). I had these sneakers on my wishlist for about a year and finally bought that using NAS price.
3 - 4 - more striped Vince boatneck.
4-5 - Adam Tucker me too slipper flats.
