Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2018

[againstandforward]

Hi guys, I am new here, just don't know of a better place to ask myy question. I've seen the 0% APR on AS purchases mentioned here, so where do I see if I qualify for that?

Following up on my final purchase. Picked up the UGG milana in sz 7.5 black suede and Clair in sz 7.5 black leather. The Clair flat is slightly tighter and more narrow. I do think that both will stretch out with wear. Having trouble debating which one to keep now.

I like the look of the suede one better. However I think the leather one will wear better over time. Also a side note if you have pets you should go for the leather pair, black suede will attract all the fluffs.

I just received the Madewell Ryder cardigan in blue heather. Pics later. I didn't see a single influencer mention this cardi. I can't say enough good things about it, a very soft acrylic blend, you can wear anywhere including after work out. I regret not buying more colors.

I purchased this one too in the pink. I agree, it is wonderfully soft

My duplicate red jcrew ruffle trim dresses arrived yesterday, and as annoying it is to have duplicates, I'm glad I have two because one of them has uneven piping in the midsection! It wasn't sewn in properly so one section twists upwards a bit. The piping in the other one is sewn evenly The material is a lightweight tropical wool. Runs TTS. Not sure if the ruffles are too twee and if the tailoring does anything for my figure. The navy arrives today so I'll compare and decide what to keep, but the red with defective piping is def going back.

J crew seems to have a quality control issue. I did the same thing with a chambray jumpsuit. The 1st one arrived with broken belt loops. The 2nd arrived with spotty wash on one leg. 3rd one was the one!

Really, what were the negative reviews about? Everytime I try to read reviews on the Nordstrom site, I lose interest because so many people just post things like A+++++++ (like a canned ebay review) because Nordstorm incentivises reviews with prizes.
To me, the only thing that should be noted about this cardigan is the size- I bought a Large and it is huge, it is about 36" long and 24" across if you lay it flat and measure. The fabric is 56% Nylon, 30% wool, 10% alpaca and elastane, so a mixed blend, I guess this isn't acrylic, not sure how to characterize the fabric. I might send it to someone which is why I'm not modeling it. It doesn't seem like it will pill but it is definitely soft, sort of spongy? Hard to describe.

I know about reviews- they were not the reason I did not buy one- I bought so many cardis last NAS that I have not even worn I had to impose a ban on myself from bringing anymore into the house (although I did cave with the BFD hooded number with the stripe!). I wanted to ask for real life input about quality because I would like to get one- they are very popular and look divinely cozy and easy to wear. I love the color you chose as well.

Kicking myself for not splurging on one of these- how are those who bought the JP shrunken military liking it? I have it on my watch list hoping it will get marked down:

That promotion is over unfortunately. You had to sign up before AS started.

 

[againstandforward]

Thank you so much for your reply! I thought it would turn on automatically, because I qualify for it. I did not realize I had to sign up for it. THis is my first year shopping the AS and having a Nordstrom card. Now I have to return $1000 worth of items that I bought considering the 0% APR.

So I have definitely overspent on the sale. Still trying to purge through my items to see which ones I want to chance for further markdowns later. I decided to return my MCM pink backpack. As much as I love the color and size, I was able to pick up two Chloe backpacks at 60% off thanks to my SA. So I know that those are definitely better deals, but the pink backpack...

There’s no loop. Based on personal use the zipper hasn’t opened but the one I have is from the NAS 5 years ago so quality could be different. Haven’t used my new one yet. My cheaper laundry mesh bags with the loop open in the wash, funny enough.

Mine from Amazon, the loop is long enough to encompass the whole zipper and a smidge more. They never open.

Has anyone noticed their Nordstrom card balance does not show alll their NAS purchases? I just looked at my card balance and 2 or more purchases I made (late in the sale, after multiple cancellations)- have not cleared to my account. I wonder if they are so screwed up they need to reconcile some accounts manually? I routinely had 4 orders for the same thing until I finally got one.

On my list as well. Comments please from those who own it.

I got one last year and I thought it wore well. It is oversized, I sized down.

@nikki626 yes I needed to size down too. Reminds me, I need to return the larger one

This is beautiful- I hope you will keep us informed (or write a review online) about how this wears. I was so tempted but some of the reviews scared me off. I have not had pilling issues with acrylic myself- it is the wool I am more concerned about pilling. Next year I will keep this in mind and try one. Hope it give you many years of warmth!

It's cute! I always worry abt acrylic pilling.

I bought one last year and it’s held up really well! No pilling that I’m remembering, and I wore it a ton. I bought a pink one this year, so hopefully it’ll also hold up well!
