In case this helps anyone else in the final day of the sale, I thought I'd post my experiences with NAS this year. I feel really good about my haul, and want to thank everyone for sharing their experiences, and Angie for her comprehensive picks and expertise.
Hits:
Pikolinos...wow, are these comfy, and I have picky feet. I had been looking for a burgundy bootie for a while, so I am thrilled these work. Not 100% sold on the tassel, but it's removable.
Rag and Bone Dres...I *think* these are keepers. The waist is perfect but I am a bit concerned they will stretch out and it's been too warm to wear them around the house. I really, really want these to work because I am mad about the color...so rich.
Vince Camuto striped crew neck top....Fits great, loved the stretch. Light weight but I'm running hot these days so I think it will be fine in cooler weather.
Halogen peplum hem blouse...Loved this immediately. Skims the bits, nice shape over pants and skirts, and in my favorite color . Heavier weight than I thought, and the cuffs are a nice detail. This will work with many bottoms in my wardrobe.
Betsey Johnson ponte fit and flare...for my petite daughter. Wow, fits her like a glove. We'd buy a second if the other print were more different.
Lafayette 148 sheath dress...I had been looking for a "little black dress" to replace a cheaper one that had seen better days. This is it, love it...a perfect fit.
Misses:
Michael Kors trench....I really, really wanted this to work. I ordered it in petite and regular, but the waistline didn't hit in the right spot for me, and I found the belt fidgety. I didn't like the removable liner, either...I found it too warm and constricting.
Marc New York leather jacket...The ink color is much darker in person, almost black, which I didn't want.
Haven't received yet:
Halogen kick flares...I'm hopeful these will work. I'm 5'4" but I never take petite pants since my legs are long so fingers crossed the length will work. Hopefully I can style them as well as everyone else here.
And then, just because my size finally came back in stock, I ordered these CoH slim straight jeans that I had put on my wish list a while ago. I cleaned out my denim collection recently, and am looking to rebuild. These have to be perfect, however, because they're really spendy for me. I should get them next week, along with the Halogen kick flares.
