The rest of my order should arrive by today, but I thought I’d start posting if it might save y’all some grief.
1. The Wit & Wisdom pants run BIG. I thought I was being smart when I ordered P2, P0, and 0, although in no universe am I a 0. The hips puffed out in all three plus they did not hold me in as supposedly they are supposed to do. I reordered in 00 and P00 so I guess these pants run bigger than even NYDJ.
2. I thought this cropped blazer looked a little weird in the stock photos but thought it might work for 5’ 1” me. Nope; it IS weird and I’m not exactly sure what build it would flatter.
3. This puff sleeve jacket is very flattering on me. Runs TTS but the sleeves are cut slim but the style doesn’t suggest you’d want to wear more than a light layer underneath. The bracelet length sleeves are just the right length on me. The long length of the jacket gives me pause however.
4. The silver sneakers come in half sizes!! I think I’ll keep these in a half size up.
5. Oops! Rykas on sale but not part of NAS. Never tried this brand. I also reordered 1/2 size up also in Wide.
6. This is a funnel neck which means it has as much fabric as a turtle but you have to fold it to the inside to make it lower.
7. This vest runs TTS. Quality is fine but not exceptional, but the price is also good. I seem to have collected a lot of white/cream bottoms, so this is a step to winterize them.
8. I am a sucker for sweater dresses and their kindred spirits, especially if they have pockets. It’s not the most flattering style on me, and I will take pics with various footwear options when it’s cooler. This dress runs TTS. I also ordered a size which I do if it’s available, but it didn’t look as good.
The booties, slingbacks, and boring sweater are supposed to be delivered today. And my annual order of lingerie wash.
