So, my "style" has reverted a bit to easy and comfortable. I have 2 children and they take a lot of my morning, and I need my clothes to be comfortable and easy. I have a "uniform" of black or navy trousers, and either a sweater (in the winter months) or a top and topper in the summer months. I only do sweater or knit jackets and cardis.

I love the way dresses and skirts look I me, but I don't choose them at this point in my life. Shoes must be practical and comfortable, all the more so after breaking my foot and ankle this winter.

I kept all of this in mind during my NAS shopping.

My picks were:

Lots of bras in an assortment of sizes to see which works. I learned the hard way my size sells out fast, so if I'm off a little, I may not be able to exchange.

There was a lot to sort through this morning, but I found having a pretty clear idea of what I would and wouldn't wear kept me on track. There were a lot of beautiful pieces, but not necessarily things I would wear at this point in my life.

Happy hunting!
