I posted my Nordstrom Anniversary Sale buys earlier, but it's been too hot to wear most of them. It's actually still too hot, but I did it anyway at night once the temperature was cooler.

1-2 Hinge blue and black lacy sheer top. Toyed with returning this as it isn't something I'd wear during summer but I wondered if I'd be too cold in it in fall, but I think it will be ok. Still keeping tags on it. Really lovely piece. Best with a black or navy camisole underneath; may work with my long sleeved black scoop neck tee that I use for layering.

3 Bellatrix drapey black vest

4 Halogen black and white "bubble" sweater

5 Vince Camuto black and white striped bandage knit top

6 Vince Camuto animal print pencil skirt

7 Kut from the Kloth fabric and pleather drapey chocolate jacket and Steve Madden chocolate quilted-heeled, double gold zippered booties

8 Halogen magenta wool coat. This photo doesn't do it justice, but it was too hot to keep on and try again.

9 Splendid boyfriend robe in purple

10 Bellatrix faux wrap turquoise top

This is a pretty thorough haul, and I'm very pleased since I hadn't bought more than a couple pieces since the start of 2014, and was feeling quite uninspired. NAS got my creative juices flowing a bit more.

I also stocked up on some other holes and needed items in non-NAS orders that will be coming in the next few weeks-duplicating a pair of these jeans that are wearing out, two pairs of knee high boots to try, a patterned faux wrap dress, rose gold wedges. You can see the additional pieces in the finds attached to this post. I'll report back when they arrive. My intention is that, aside from allowing some flexibility during the Seattle meetup in September with Inge, my clothing shopping will be done until 2015.
