As I mentioned on my Barbour jacket thread, that order didn't go through, and the item is out of stock now, at least for the time being. Suddenly I realized I had another issue--I opened a new Nordstrom card and used it to buy this jacket--but now that order was refunded (or likely I was never charged in the first place). The new card came with a $20 note for a purchase of $100 or more, but that had to be done within a day of using the card. So I called Nordstrom and the customer care associate took care of it--she called credit card services herself and extended the period to a week, suggesting that I could try to get the jacket when the sale opened to the public on Friday.

But I couldn't resist pulling the trigger on the other goodies that were in my cart--these Aquatalia booties and the Rag & Bone burgundy jeans. I *think* these are going to be top picks, based on Angie's feedback in other threads, but I guess I'll see. The other thing I threw in was a bottle of the lingerie wash. Other than that I might consider getting a pair of faux leather leggings/pants, and a sweater tunic if Angie recommends any good ones.

And of course the jacket! I actually have no short fall coats, so this would fill in a big hole for me.
