UmmLila - It was to be expected that Nordstrom would eventually get a bit more strict with their return policy in these cases, don't you think...?
Joy - Ooooh, I love them too!! (and perfect timing, I've been thinking of starting a "brown capsule", and these looks are quite inspiring)
gradfashionista - Lots of interesting stuff there!
Liz - Brilliant find! I'll be spending quite a bit of time perusing the site
Thanks so much, ladies, for these marvelous links.
