My orders are arriving slowly but surely. I've tried most things on, at least enough to make that intial yes/no/maybe determination.

These are things that didn't work and are going back.

NIc + Zoe multi striped sweater. I think others mentioned that this was rather blah and I thought the same. I like gray and wear it but this just didn't do anything for me.
Nic + Zoe blue/black pattern sweater. Nice and soft, cute but I don't have a great need for casual tops so I'm returning this one.
Rebecca Minkoff sweater- Staysfit showed us this one; it's a lovely color but the fit is off for me. The sleeves are very long on my t-rex arms and it's too full at the bottom.
Topshop cropped sweater- I wanted to love this. I do like the style but found it to be a bit scratchy.
Nic + Zoe boucle jacket- I liked the 'confetti' colors, it's a nice weight and the fit was good. But I don't love how it looks open; I can do better.

I am still waiting on a number of pieces, including several Angie top picks as well as plaid pants and black jeans from Lafayette 148, black pants from Eileen Fisher, an ink dress and burgundy leather boots. I'm anxious to receive everything and make final k/r decisions!
