Wow, this is a weird year for me - things I thought I would love are just meh, and I'm surprised by what I've loved.
Second shipment is in ... and the results are:
KEEPING:
Classique suit - keeping the regular size. The plus size cut proportions don't work. Not what I was expecting, but we'll go with it. http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/cl.....81406?orig
Paul Green D'orsay pumps. LOVE - grey metallic and perfect height. Definite keepers. http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/pa.....archProduc
Caslon sweater in Red - LOVE, and actually worked in the petite instead of normal size. Maybe there's something to this TrueFit sizing? Will be part of team Wear next week.
Halogen flares - Finally something I love from Halogen. I was ready to give up on the brand. These are great, and I can retire my WHBM ponte pants. Still need to adjust to the cropped length, but so grateful I listened to all of you!
Kut from the Kloth Dianas. - Love the color and fit. They are long, but I think I may leave with the extra fabric instead of tailoring. (?)
RETURNING
Armani jersey dress. Nice, but not special enough for the price. http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ar.....ywordsearc
Maggie London dress. Too tight in bust, too loose in waist. Story of my life. http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ma.....ordsearch-
Melissa McCarthy coated jeans. Fit, but were pulling at the calf. Pass.

Stuart Weitzman shoes. Sooo disappointed here, but the size was just too big, and sizing down would be too small. Will look for an alternative
Bobeau cardigan - Meh, and I already kept a cocoon cardigan in round 1.
Missoni Poncho. Ordered as a wild card, but didn't love.
2 more orders to go - Battle of the Blue coats is up next, and then the final round up of casual clothes.
