I finally decided that I was going to take the plunge. Everyone was having such fun shopping NAS--I wanted to play too! So here are the items I have ordered.

KUT from the Kloth "Ana" Faux Leather drape front jacket is awesome. The fit is great and so soft. I ordered it in black.

Halogen Long Wool Blend Merino Sweater Vest--fits like a dream. A little curve hugging
when its buttoned up, but not in a super body-con way Can be worn as a dress or as a topper. Love!

Karen Kane Faux Leather trim drape front jacket--this I ordered in eggplant--have very high hopes for this one--it is arriving today.

And last but not least the Halogen Kick Flare crops--I had to try these after all the rave reviews--I am a little apprehensive since I am a curvy hour glass with muscular thighs and calves and often pants are notoriously hard to fit--but I hope these work!

Thanks to everyone on the forum for the reviews and the inspiration!
