Oh yay! I haven’t seen the reiss cardigan pop back in any size even once. I’m so happy you got one and it fits! I love oversized cardigans. And that stripe!!

If anyone is still looking for the barefoot dreams lounge set they have the blue and the almond available in almost all sizes. Either it's a restock or everyone returned at the same time.
All this talk of pop backs strangely has me craving Pop Tarts! I'm glad everyone's shopping is largely successful. All my items are received by now. I didn't buy much clothing, mostly beauty, shoes for the family, a blazer and shirt for my hubby, and underwear. I even got my new baby puppy a winter sweater. I feel very content..well, until I review the bill. My only possible returns might be the Trish McEvoy makeup brush collection. They are very nice, but very expensive. So this is not a need, but a definite want.
More items arrived from my NAS haul:
Rails Ellis Organic Cotton shirt in Rose Sand Ivory, kind of a gauzy material— Didn’t really like the fabric; felt like I would snag it on something. This is going back.
The Spiritual Gangster sweatshirt in oatmeal heather (goes with the sweat pants I received earlier, or just with jeans) — Love! This is a keeper.
Two pair of PacSun Carpenter pants (100% cotton, so no stretch); the material is thick almost canvas-like. I ordered my usual size of 27 and couldn’t even zip them up. I think I would have to order two sizes up to fit. These are going back. Although, I did like the off-white color of one of the pairs. Oh well.
BP zip hoodie 100% cotton, green dune, in a combined size of small/medium. Way too big. Sleeves hung to my knees. Returning.
Led Zeppelin T in small. Just a fun graphic tee. Love. Keeping!
The Monica Vinader sterling silver heart charm necklace. Dainty, but seems like good quality. This is a gift, so keeping.
The Longchamp toiletry bag in black. This is bigger than I thought it would be. Seems to be well-made. On the fence on this.
Nordstrom stripe oversize cotton poplin shirt in blue and white stripe. Seems to be good quality. Pretty long, covers butt. On the fence on this, too.
More items arriving tomorrow.

Holy crap. Just snagged the Reiss cardigan I’m medium! Let’s see if it ships.
Fingers crossed for you!
Okay all the stuff I ordered on first day of Influencer shopping has arrived. None of it will be going back. But I was careful in this order there were no maybes here. So if you all are interested here's the list of what I got:

Bombas assorted 6 pk ankle socks (2pkgs)

Annnnnd just like that it’s cancelled.
I know. It’s a bummer but the stalking continues!
Received the Rag & Bone Retro Sneaker in the grey denim and these are an absolute return. I didn't realize the tongue was left unfinished and all I can see is the cheap foam along the edges. For $150 sneakers ($250 full price 
), the least they could have done is finish the edges!

I think these are a bit different because it is all recycled materials (or mostly).Received the Rag & Bone Retro Sneaker in the grey denim and these are an absolute return. I didn't realize the tongue was left unfinished and all I can see is the cheap foam along the edges. For $150 sneakers ($250 full price
“Recycled polyester textile and leather upper/recycled polyester textile lining/recycled rubber and walnut shell sole”
Maybe, but I checked the other ones in the sale (the suede ones), and they also have the exposed foam on the tongue. I just can't justify that much money for a product that is unfinished.
Montgomery Mall is a hit and miss, but I would give it a whirl. Sometimes during the sale things will pop up on the anniversary racks as returns of ”sold out items” that you can snag, and sometimes there is nothing much. Every time I return something, I will browse around. The fun is the looking and who knows…..
As for Tysons, they usually do have more selection. I don’t mind the traffic, but be aware that they are constantly working (for years now it seems)on the stretch of 495 between the American Legion bridge and the Dulles toll road, so it backs up practically every single day, sometimes backs up all the way to Montgomery Mall. Most days I can get there from my house in 1/2 hr even when it backs up a little, but that said, it can be a royal pain on some days, 45 minutes maybe and I only go between 10-2, I would never go during rush hour.
All but 1 of my orders has now shipped! Yay!
