Ok, so my initial order from Friday just came in. I just got some staple pieces, nothing too exciting, but I'm pleasantly surprised that I really like all of it, and nothing has to go back!

1 & 2: Halogen Crewneck Sweater in Ivory Cloud and Black (I ordered the black two days after my first order, and it showed up today as well). They are soft, and fit really nicely. Slimmer fit, but not fitted. Looks really nice tucked in too, because they aren't bulky - light weight, but cozy. The cuff detail is really nice and adds a little something to an otherwise simple top. Thinking about ordering another color. Runs tts.

3: 1.State Pintuck cami in Ivory: The pintuck detail in nicely done, and the cami is lined, so not see-through at all. I have a black one from 1.Sate that's very similar, so I knew what to expect. Runs mostly TTS. I got my usual XS, but an XXS could work too probably.

4. Hunter Short Adjustable-Back Rain Boots: I was surprised by these - they are heavier than I expected, but not overly so. The cushioned insoles were a nice surprise. They are way more comfortable than I thought they would be. I'm pretty much a true 7.5 and purchased a 7 - they have plenty of room if I wanted to wear a thicker sock. I also ordered a pair of Barbour rain boots (not from Nordstrom) that should be here today. Gonna compare and see which one I like best.

I got a pair of the Natori girl briefs to try. Sized up to a Small - I always size up in undies. They seem pretty nice and are comfortable. Don't know if I would want to pay 20$ each time, but I like the sale price, so I think I'm going to order a few more pairs.

Husband's Saxx boxer briefs as as expected. He loves that brand. Still waiting on his Vince polo to arrive.

Ordered the North Face Winter Warm leggings last night, so I'm eager to try those. I love fleece lined leggings for hiking in the winter, and these look like they could be a little less bulky than my fleece line leggings from Athleta.

Still debating on whether I should order the North Face Acropolis Parka in grey.

If any of you are on the fence regarding the All Saints long sleeve tee! Definitely get it! I just received the white one which in large so it would slouch more off the shoulder. It came directly from All Saints in a really cute sage green box, shirt wrapped in tissue. The tee is so incredible soft and so slouchy! It fits very large but that's the look I'm going for. I just order one immediately in black, the very last medium since there was no more larges. But that's okay, I don't mind having a slightly more fitted version since the quality is amazing! https://www.nordstrom.com/s/allsaints-rita-oversize-one-shoulder-long-sleeve-tee/5495650

They're both cute!

If you live someplace where it rains enough, then yes! Definitely! Always nice to have more than one option.

I am in CA and have no need for the two pair of rain boots I have now. It's been so long since I have had to wear them that I don't even know where they are! :P

I live in SC, and let me tell you - at this point, I might as well live in FL. Lately, we've gotten an afternoon storm almost everyday. Definitely the rainiest year and a half that I can remember. So I do have a need for 1 pair...but 2? Probably not. Wondering if I should keep one for rain and one for mud? That kind of sounds dumb in my head too, since you can just hose the one pair off. oy vey.

Alright, first-world problems you guys. The Barbour rain boots were just delivered and welp...I can't decide. Barbours are olive green with black trim (hard to see in pic) and the Hunters are obviously black with a gray buckle. The Barbour boots hit about 1/2 inch lower on the leg than the Hunters. Weight is about the same. The Barbour boots have a super cute tartan plaid lining, and are slightly easier to get on/off. Hunters have a little more cushion inside. Sizing is identical (both 7's). Would it be weird to have 2 of the same style? :giggle:Any opinions?

I have a pair of Hunters with the side buckle and it bothers me that it snags on things (tights, for example). If you need extra cushioning you can switch out the default insole for one of your choice.

Oh that's good to know! Wonder if the same could happen with the buckle on the back? They don't fit close to my leg, but of course when I walk, they move back and forth. I should try them on with leggings and see what happens.

It happens when I sit with my legs crossed and then I move or uncross them. It’s usually cold when it rains here in CA, hence the tights for winter.

Send some rain to us in CA! We need it so badly!

I think you can get away with two. Always nice to have an extra pair handy just in case!

Keep checking! This was in my original 3am Friday the 16th order and was the only cancellation. I got a notification from the app the next day that it was back in stock so I ordered it again and it has shipped. I should receive it on Monday.
