I went Downtown Portland today for icon sneak peek. They had things out but I wasn’t allowed to browse. My stylist was allowed to pull things for me and I was able to put a few things away to be rung Monday. They already were out of sizes for something’s so I’m sure that many people are doing the same. I am Icon and was last year also and I went on the first day and lots of stuff was out of stock and had to be ordered. Now I know why!

My stylist also pulled some things for me but she said the style boards can't be sent to me until the sale goes live at midnight tonight. So the question is do I stay up to midnight to make sure they don't run out by tomorrow morning??? I'm not much of a night owl :sleepy:
I really want the Longchamps Large travel bag and I know it will sell out online.

Was she paid to shill fast fashion? The brunette looks around my age and I haven’t worn Steve Madden since college.
I just thought this was funny :biggrin: I'm in my mid 30's and will still wear Steve Madden, but I remember it as a teenager too (so 20+ years ago) and back then it seemed perceived as a cheaper brand, now it seems much more expensive and bloggers show "Steve Madden dupes." Like why does anyone need a dupe for a Steve Madden shoe when it's already a dupe for a designer brand usually? I will get them only on a really good sale, but there are some cute and comfortable styles.

Same here. She is going to send the style boards for the things that were not in store at midnight. At least I’m on the west coast :-)

Sorry! Hope I didn’t offend you. As I’ve gotten older I’ve become less concerned with trends and I also find SM to be very uncomfortable. For a while I shopped the higher end Steven line.

I too am enjoying what I know will be my last year as an Icon and my stylist pulled a bunch of items for me. Nordstrom brands haven’t even gotten to the US yet (still on a ship maybe?) so they’re hoping they come in at the end of the month. But she has pulled most of my wish list in my size so I lucked out maybe because it’s a bigger store.
 
I'm having the same problem with sizing. I'm going by the size charts for the items I'm interested in. I've noticed that XXL measurements are smaller than the 14W-16W measurements. Assuming the clothing is true to size, I'm just going by my measurements. I was thinking about buying both sizes but don't really want to.

I decided to order the XXL in the sweater and the 1X in the blouse due to the stretch/nonstretch factor. I always have so many returns during the sale and I’m trying to avoid that this year so I’m only ordering one size to start with. I don’t think any of the items I want are going to be hot sellers and there’s nothing I can’t live without.

I‘m a night owl anyway so I’m staying up to put my order in when it opens. My SA said he’s texting style boards at 3 am Eastern. Wonder if he’s staying up or if he has an automated way to do it?!
 
Also I'm a little confused because in Erin Busbee's Nordstrom preview she says not to invest in skinny jeans anymore and to invest in relaxed fit jeans, which look more on-trend and more modern but the Miller girls are giving us this? :confused1: View attachment 5134293

Hi

I agree with Erin and would not invest in skinny jeans. I live in Europe and the shift away from skinny’s is visible. Wear the ones you already own but I wouldn’t buy more. I don’t follow influencers but I have seen Erin through this forum. She seams to be good . I have young nieces and when I bought baggy jeans last Christmas they loved them. They don’t were skinny any more.
