Anyone else finding that in general, a lot of items they are getting are pretty poor in quality? The only items I've been 100% good with are socks, underwear and a couple shoes/pieces of clothing. The rest just seem poorly made. I know that a lot of these items are made just for the anniversary sale (and it's obvious when you google the style name and nothing comes up except for on nordstrom). But that isn't an excuse to make poor quality items! You'd think that store-exclusive items would be made well, so it's a bit of a disappointment. I feel bad too that I'll end up returning probably 50-70% of the items I got due to quality or crappy fit.

I have been pretty happy with my purchases so far.

Also.. Is looks like Nordstrom is removing reviews? That or something is glitching. I wrote a few poor reviews for some items and they have not been loaded even though I wrote them 3+ days ago. Also I remember a poor review being posted under the Reiss Leah coat and now its vanished... Odd.

I wrote some reviews last week and 2 of them were 3 stars and another mentioned a product being itchy. All up there still.

Anyone still have an order pending (“Getting Ready”)? I saw the Vince Camuto Tweed Jacket briefly pop-up on the website and purchased it. I still think they might cancel it though since stock is so limited

3 items
1)the bdg flannel shirt I love, but I think I need to size down to medium & of course OOS.
2) the free people sweater I wanted from day 1. This thing is huge & heavy in a medium, returning
3)saw this adidas hoodie on an influencer I follow, the sleeves are darling & not even pointed out online! Really cute, but not sure if keeping, SOFT!
Please excuse my mess!

I don't think the quality is poor, per se. But definitely many items are made specifically for the sale (I am looking at you, Zella, Treasure & Bond, etc...) and the quality is aligned to the price more so than full-priced items in many cases.

I feel like I buy a ton and end up sending quite a bit back because of fit issues which I think can fall under the quality category.

Most of the items I have sent back were due to fit and non-flattering on my frame and body type. There has been like one or two things that I was like will this hold up or the material was meh. The things that I have decided to keep seem to be good quality but you never know until you wash and wear them.

I didn't by any accessories this year, no scarves or purchases, no jewelry.

I find there are a lot of items I already have or have something similar so I feel like I don't need a duplicate so I have purchased less this year because of that reason.

That tub looks like it provides many restful peaceful times after long weeks.

So I finally got my first order in. The zella amazing crew neck. I have last years and ordered the blue and pink this year. The blue feel like normal and the pink has a tech material to the outside.

Also ordered the Caslon Miller boot. Runs large and the back flap came off when I pulled on it to get the boot on.

on a weird note, this was also in my box

Lol I’m so confused. My box was sealed. Is this something they sell in their restaurant? It was not refrigerated so I have to throw it out but that was a fun surprise. Lol

I think I’m going to return the zella sweatshirt in pink. I think that material runs a little smaller and I’m not sure I like the fabric. It seems like it would get stained rather easily. Disappointed as I like the color but it’s just not the same

Oh dear... As tempting as it may be, I dont recommend eating it That is SO random, how can that even happen lmao.

Just a comment about quality. I buy Zella leggings at every anni sale. I found the ones I bought this year (black cropped) are the same in thickness and quality as the ones I bought 2 years ago. However, I do buy one size larger than I need to because I hate to fight with my clothes, especially in the morning when I tend to work out! . I find that that the leggings always stay up at the waist. Just my experience…

Some poor employee is probably wondering where their lunch went lol.

 

[pixiejenna]

So I got a pair of silk pants which I feel like they run a tad big and I could probably size down. But more importantly they’re way too long. I feel like nearly a foot too long for me. I have never owned silk pants and wonder if it would be worth it to get them hemmed or am I better off just doing a return. I’m afraid that if they hem they they might botch it and not look right.
