I feel like I did really well in this sale. The things I thought I would want or like weren't always the same as what I kept but I've found that I'm all the happier for it. I had a lot of difficulty with shoes this year and returned probably 7 pairs due to sizing issues. I was disappointed that the P448's didn't work out for me but I do love the Rag and Bones I ended up with. I also love the Aquatalia Colbie bootie that I bought and am happy they are weather proof and stain resistant. They are so well made I'm sure I'll have them for years. Tomorrow I should be receiving the Born black suede mule which had good reviews for comfort so I'm hoping they work out too. I would love a shoe I can just slip on and go. I also just ordered some brown boots by Joseph Seibel but was confused on sizing so ordered two different sizes. Somehow I ended up with 4 coats/jackets but living in Michigan you really need a variety of weights and lengths for the ever-changing weather. I purchased quite a bit in beauty and some bras and pj's. I really didn't order much in clothing but the two sweaters I bought I really like. The one final item I'm debating is a sweater by Vince https://www.nordstrom.com/s/vince-wool-cashmere-rib-tunic-sweater/6851647?origin=wishlist-personal that I'm positive I've been influenced by many of you in this community. I was hoping to see additional reviews on the sweater so I would have a better idea as to which size to order. I know someone on this thread said Vince sweaters run large but this sweater doesn't look oversized (which I prefer) so I'm trying to decide. Outside of my own purchases I really enjoy coming here and seeing what everyone else buys or returns. I know it was mentioned earlier and I agree that this community is really great to participate in and I look forward to it every year.

I bought that Vince sweater and I really love it. It is more fitted like it is shown in the pictures. I went with my usual size. Hope that helps and that you like it if you get it!

I would have purchased the cardigan but did not because of the v shape on the back of the neck. It's such a small detail but it bothers me for some silly reason.

Thank you that does help. I watched the sales associate video which seemed to suggest you could wear two different sizes. Like your true to size for tunic and one size down for fitted. I even checked at Neiman Marcus for similar styles and did their true fit size calculator but thought it might be too small. I guess it's because I'm not familiar with their sizing that makes me so unsure. I did order the sweater last night. I thought of ordering two sizes (I might still) but I'm kind of tired of returning. I thought I could always exchange it if still available and if it's not then it's not meant to be. Glad you love your sweater - I'm looking forward to it!
 
Help! I ordered these. Might be too small, but need to at least TRY them, because…

Oooh! I love quirky stuff like this! This is totally the kind of thing that I would’ve worn in my office days and been reprimanded for… and I’d be like “they’re black heels, they’re business casual, men wear ties with coffee mugs and donuts on them… is there a particular employee handbook that you are referencing when you say these are not appropriate?”

Or maybe you’re joking about buying them but I love them :lol:

… And in addition to every day you can wear them on Halloween as part of your sexy mouse costume.

Oh they shipped, so I’ll be able to try them soon! I work with creatives, so wearing these to our quarterly in-office meetings is a-ok. Also plan to wear them to Target, the grocery store, dentist…. YOLO!

My July purchases this year were the basics: moonlight pjs, eye cream, workout tees, jeans, baking pans, cheese wedge shoes… :coolio:
