So much fun! Thank you, Angie! I am not sure what I am in the market for other than weatherproof boots and basics (bras/ camis), but surprises await!!!

I thought of Brooklyn and Sally immediately when I saw the jackets! Really love the VB jacket but wonder if sleeves will be alterable (since long is the opposite of good for me -- though narrow is good).

Love the sweater in 3 and blouse in 5. And I think I see a puff sleeved shirt? I don't normally go there but might....for the right Edwardian one.

I would love to know more about the taupe jacket in photo 2!

Only thing I am thinking about what I may want or need for winter is maybe a couple of sweaters as mine are mostly old. That one with the flowers in 6 is calling me.

Thanks for sharing the pictures, Angie. I personally am into the olive anorak with faux fur trim, but lots of intriguing and beautiful pieces here.

I have a last long session with a client tonight, ladies. But I will begin to put stuff in Finds late tonight. If it's a NAS Find, it means it worked well on a client. That should give you a head start.

Ooh a Pendleton coat? I need a new one

Thank you, Angie!! Looking forward!

Omg that metallic moto jacket tho

Angie, that is so generous of you! Thank you for the work that you do for us.

What a great little teaser!
Hmm, should I go swimming in the morning, or go straight to the computer to browse your Finds?? Decisions, decisions!

Delurked, in my experience Aquatalia runs slightly narrow. I've found the best fit by sizing up half a size.

Thanks Beth. I have a pretty narrow foot, and if I recall correctly, think they are a brand that makes 10 1/2. That's the size I expect to go with if they have it.

And thanks for the finds too Angie.

The Veronica Beard jacket does run true to size, as Angie said. The fabric is not knit but does have some stretch to it. There are no button in dickey cuffs so the sleeve length alteration should be easy. The dickey is a creamy white color. There did appear to be a problem with the zipper on the dickey of one of the sizes I tried. A little sticky. It wasn't the size I needed fortunately.

The jacket is FAB! The stripes give it kind of a David Bowie-esque vibe. Enjoy!

Hi Nicoleb! i remember you...you had the cutest outfits and it was really fun to read your posts. I love how NAS brings out the old timers...

How was Lafayette in the designer section?

The black coat with insets reminds me of one I have (vintage Claude Montana ) The orange patterned top toward the end caught my eye. Looking forward to your coverage as a loyal subject Queen NAS!

The olive coat with whitish fur and the striped sweater are calling my name. Thank you so much for any information you can give. Any sweater dresses worth looking at?

Angie--I know it takes time to make and update these posts--thank you! If I make purchases, I promise to do it thru finds!

Thank you Angie! Up early because of thunderstorms with Sophie. I love that olive cropped military jacket. I think you said that was Levis. I will watch for it. Perfect for me.

I just browsed through the online offerings and already collected a ton of stuff Lots of gorgeous items, WOW!

Angie, I think you mean this coat?
> VERY tempting for sure!-)

Thank you tons for all the info and updates!

inge--love the colors of that coat....was tempted this morning, but...need to keep telling myself i dont really need more coats (repeat to myself....dont really need more coats)

Thanks so much for the preview Angie!! I was wondering in your travels if anyone had tried on the two vince coats. The black cashmere sweater coat (looks like felted wool to me) and the reversible gray/black hooded double faced wool cashmere coat, how do they look on? The black/gray is very dramatic is it too much? Thanks so much. My gut is they may both be gone before regular sale begins.

ooh and the leather sleeve coat looks similar to the elie tahari that I bought on your rec a couple of years ago which is fab

graycats I have two of the VB dickeys. I thought there was a zipper problem but then worked fine when I did not have them on. I fought if I held the left side slightly above the base and pull straight down they zip easily. Maybe it's a weird zipper glitch but otherwise move smoothly but almost returned for that reason. Hope that helps.

Angie - thank you for all of your help every year with this sale. I'm off with my MIL and niece for our annual shopping extravaganza. My daughter and SIL both have to work this year. I mainly need jeans and sweaters for my extremely casual, (dog walking in all weather) lifestyle. I've seen some cashmere sweaters online and I hope they are as nice in person. My daughter purchased the Blondo moto boots online at 6 am based on all of the previous recommendations for the brand on YLF. She is so excited for them to arrive!

Oh I can't wait to see what pieces make the final cut. I see embroidery is still going strong and it's lovely! I also see lots of fun sleeves and will be very curious about the fits on them. I'm hoping there will be some nice olive and blush pink colors this year, because the catalog had lots of grey's and I'm more interested in the olives, tans, browns, and blush pink for this year. And of course blues, can't forget blue. Have fun shopping Angie and try to get some rest when you can, I know it's a busy time for you.

Looked through the finds and found a few goodies - mostly lingerie and accessories. Thank you! But - no dresses?? Is this not a good year for dresses? *sob*

Angie, thank you so much for the Finds! I have been browsing yours and comparing to the catalogue.

I am interested in those Blondo moto boots. And -- OY -- a very expensive Burberry coat!

Collecting Finds so far, not buying yet.

Fabulous to have reconnaissance from the Front! Thanks, Angie, and lots of energy coming your way!

Oh decisions decisions. I have a pile of stuff in my online cart right now. I'm hesitant about fit on all of it. I'm wondering if I should try to head into my store this afternoon to try on anything I can before pulling the first trigger.

Actually, I already pulled the first trigger. I went on the hunt for a pair of blush Nike flyknit sneakers last fall, but they didn't exist then. As soon as I saw these in the catalog I knew I'd order them first thing in the morning.
