Ok here are some pics. I will say this coat is kind of itchy. But I do t really consider that an issue because I wouldn't be wearing a tank or short sleeves with it. The pink is REALLY out of my comfort zone but I though would look nice with all the black I wear. But after looking at these pictures I’m reminded why I haven’t added it to my Cladwell app just yet. It’s a cocoon coat and I think I really don’t like them. I prefer vents to allow a better flow to the coat when you walk. I think it makes me look bigger then I am. And lastly the ”buttons”. I think it really cheapens the coat. Ugh. Do I really talk myself out of everything? :annoyed: Oh and this is the twelve. As you can see the sleeves are too long.

**edited to add the last two photos to show I really am not as big as the last few shots with these different coats make me appear. It’s amazing what a different length will do to you!

Well, my Rag & Bone Dean coat is here... And it fits AND I really like it!! I'm so confused since I tried on a size 8 in store and the shoulders felt tight, but this size 4 I got fits just fine??? I'll post photos soonish!

Oo I can’t wait to see it!

I just got this today:https://www.nordstrom.com/s/allsaints-ridley-funnel-neck-wool-cashmere-sweater/5098727
I’m not sure how I feel about it. I got it in a medium it’s not right on me but the sleeves are supposed to be snug and that is fine. The complaints on it are in regards to the feel of it which I think is fine, it feels fine I’m not sure if I’d say it feels expensive I have to touch it again but it’s not scratchy but not super soft either. It does have bat wings as many like to call it. When I raise my arms it does come up a bit to my stomach. I will say what is nice about it is the way it looks from the side which isn’t frumpy, from the front is does kind of look that way but I tried it on with pajamas and I look like poo so we will see I’ll try again later. Atm I’m very uncertain because at the price it’s not a love yet but also not a heck no.
Also a lot of my stuff is shipping out today I’ve gotten like three shipping updates. Not the coatigan though yet sadly I keep looking and hoping without much luck.

As a Canadian shopper, I finally made it to the store yesterday and actually tried things on. So fun after missing the in-store experience last year! I have a few more things coming in the mail but some things I loved yesterday that haven’t been talked about as much:
  • Jenny bird century necklace - gold plated, so shiny and pretty!
  • Open edit set of 3 hoop earrings - not real gold but perfect chunky hoops for fall/winter sweaters
  • Nike react phantom run flyknit 2 running shoe (longest name ever?) - I’m a big fan of lace-less slip on sneakers and these are really comfy
  • Bb dakota Nashville tie belt jumpsuit - I grabbed this at the end and I think it’s my fave item from the whole sale. Comfiest more flattering casual jumpsuit I’ve ever tried. I’m between S and M and definitely needed an M in these
  • Caslon cowl neck hatchi tunic - I didn’t intend to buy turtlenecks this year but these are sooo soft and light and flattering. Picturing them as perfect for working from home this winter.
  • Vero moda karma v-neck sweater - so stinking nice and flattering, bought it in all 3 colours. Will also be a work from home staple for me.
  • Longchamp leather bag in gold beige - I guess their leather is a love it or hate it thing but I personally love the slouchy light leather.

Alright, here is the Rag & Bone Dean wool blend coat. This is a size 4, I normally wear a size 6 now in most things, but sometimes 4's can work too. I'm glad I got the 4, as it does fit a touch large. I can definitely still fit a sweater underneath for when the cooler weather comes. It is unlined, but feels comfortable and is not scratchy. It's a pretty army green blended color, I like it. I also like the length. I am 5'10 and it stops just above my knee with is nice. I do wish there was more than one button though, I feel like wind will really break its way into this coat.

I will wait until my other coats arrive in the mail to make my decision on what I will keep. I'm guessing I'll keep this and the Harris Wharf coat I found on sale this morning, or it will be this and the Vince camel cardigan.

Also, I am wearing bottoms, they are shorts. I wasnt bothered to get dressed for this try on lol so please dont mind that!

Ohh thank you!!! I noticed that on Nordstrom, I think they had the sizing misprinted. They claim an IT 40 is a US 6, but every other site says that an IT 40 is a US 4. Then I read that people thought the coat fit small. So this morning I ordered both sizes that were in stock (an IT 40 and IT 44) so I hope that a) both ship and b) one actually fits lol.

I wear an Italian 40 and I am a US 4. If anything it would be a small 4 definitely not a 6....

Right that's what I read as well! So I'm glad I was able to order the 44 as well, because I don't think the size 40 will fit me all that well based on what I read. I found a review where a girl mentioned wearing a size 2 usually, but instead she got a size 4 (or IT40) in this coat and it fits way better. If I'm ever to wear a 4, it would have to be a larger 4 lol.

I saw the Vince coatigan in person at my store and although it was cute, I had to pass. It runs very large. To give you an idea of how large, I’m typically a M and tried on the XXS for kicks. It still looked oversized on me. The dealbreaker wasn’t the sizing, but the pilling! It’s more like a sweater and already started pilling on the rack. Pass, pass, pass.
The biggest surprise of the sale for me was the Caslon water resistant leather lug sole boots. For $60, they’re pretty amazing and they’re cute on!

I'm up to the 21st on shipping so I guess that's pretty good. Nothing life changing I'm waiting on, so I am able to wonder at the randomness of it instead of stressing about it! I do have an order of three Hanky Panky boy shorts (from the 19th) that aren't part of the sale but were buy three and save. They just cancelled one pair and the other two are still getting ready. Which I was only buying three for the price so really they're doing me a favor.
