Dana: I'm glad you found them too and hope you love them!!!
I hear you on the thin in store selection. My local Nordies feels emptier this year. One of the SA's in the shoe department said they hardly have any inventory in the stock room whereas last year it was full. She said that so many people shop online that it makes sense for them to keep product centralized. As for me, I want my cake and eat it too, as I love the in store shopping but often hit the order button online...
She also mentioned that Nordstrom bought trunk club so perhaps they see that model as the future of retail...
