I just returned from my local Nordies. I pre-ordered the SPANX higher power panty.

Since I was oh so unhelpful in my first report from stores, the MbMJ bag is the Posh Turnlock Jazz bag. it's in the online catalog on page 21k-21l. Comes in mouse grey, cognac, electric violet, and black.

I was pretty sure that I saw raybans - at least the aviators. You may be able to call a store and check with a salesperson if you don't have a Nordstrom in your area. Otherwise, they have tons of styles that you can see and try on in the accessory pre-sale area.

i just preordered a TON of stuff today. here is what i have to report or at least what i seem to remember. my local Nordstrom had everything that was in the catalog and more. especially the shoes and handbags. there were tons!!!

aside from the mbmj satchel in the catalog there was a tote style and a smaller hobo handbag style, all in the same five colors. i preordered a black mbmj in the tote style not shown in the catalog. i really wanted the electric purple one but believe it or not i do not have a black handbag so i went with that. they had a ton of kate spade and michael kors. they have a coach hobo that you can adjust to wear as a hobo or messenger style. also tons of dooney and bourke.

i preordered the black Tory Burch romys, much more comfortable than my revas!

the scarves/wraps were REALLY nice. the Nordstrom brand ones in cashmere for $49.90 are such a steal! they are super soft and they have every color in the rainbow! they have that scarf in solid colors or a color block. i got two of those! i wanted one in every color

the clothing was not bad. the BP jackets were the cutest since they are cheap and come in different colors. if anyone needs a trench coat or peacoat they had a lot of those. they had cute jeans too. i liked the hudson's! i picked up a little BP peacoat in navy blue and one of those boyfriend blazers.

men's section, which no one has reported on yet in case you need to pick up something for your SO or dad, was pretty good too. tons of burberry polos ($65) and shirts, lacoste polos for $49, tons of t-shirts for around $19, a pretty good shoe selection. i got those black diesels for my boyfriend =] this way he won't disapprove of my shopping so much. a TON of designer denim for men.

the only section that was pretty sparse was the jewelry.

other than that, i had a fun day of shopping and running around the store with my sweet SA!

Hope my info helped and enabled some of you to get out to Nordstrom and shop!!! =]

Oh I forgot to add that there were really cute Dior sunglasses for $149 regularly $300. and a lot of Juicy sunglasses too for ~$60. oh and there were aviators but i did not check to see if they were ray bans, sorry =[

and i remember someone asking about le mystiere bras, they only had four styles at the store i went to and they did not look that good. the elle macpherson ones are really nice though. i also picked up a cute juicy sleep shirt, i believe that one was in the catalog. they also had two other juicy sleep tank tops, long pink juicy PJ bottoms, shimera sleeping sets, and a lot of the spanx.

Gatsby · Jul 8th, 2009, 05:21 AM

^^^Wow, what a great report! Thanks so much and if the scarves I'm thinking of are the ones for $49.99, that's trouble, I bought the black and the grey last winter, loved them!

newbiebaglover · Jul 8th, 2009, 08:18 AM

I did my pre-sale yesterday and have to say I was not too impressed with the shoes and handbags. Let's see if I can remember what I saw, since I only had an hour to go through everything

:

In handbags, they had a very cute mbmj clutch purse that came in electric violet and black. Don't know if it came in any colors beyond that. There were a bunch of Cole Haan bags, some MK bags in berry and black leather in the Panama style. They also had the Botkier Bianca Medium Satchel in berry, brown and another color that I can not remember now. Price on the Botkier was $396.

I was not too impressed with the shoes and that's usually my fave section! Only saw shoes there that were also in the catalog, nothing more. I only bought the MK shoes from the catalog in black metallic. The black metallic=gunmetal color. It didn't seem like they had a big selection so maybe my Nordstrom hadn't gotten everything in. I do know this was the case with a sweater I wanted to pre-sale.

The casual leather jackets were also cute but b/c I am petite and busty, they never quite fit right, so I passed. I did score a pencil skirt and blouse in point of view. They had a nice variety of black pencil skirts to choose from.

So do you guys think if I call and ask to pre-sale for the anniversary sale they'd let me? If I just walk into the store and ask them will they show me all this special loot? lol.

That's what I did! I'm not level 2. They never even asked.

ShoeLover · Jul 8th, 2009, 11:21 AM

I was there yesterday and they did not let me in. They had a book with all the names of the VIPs. They said to come back on the 7/17. This was at the Galleria (Houston).
