I don’t think it’s too early. Mine is a toss up from the Celine Glasses and the Reiss Cardigan.

I didn't order as much this year. Mostly I picked up some more underwear and socks, and then restocked some body wash and lash serums. I think the two new items I purchased this year are my favorites: osea set and the reiss cardigan. If I had to pick just one I think I'd go with the sweater.
I'd definitely buy it for that clearance price!
I have a few but happy with everything I bought. The Sam Edelman Double Breasted Teddy Coat, Zella Compass Pocket Cargo Joggers, rag & bone Retro Runner Sneaker, NIC+ZOE Shaker Stitch Cap Sleeve Zip Cardigan and Zella Amazing Fleece Full Zip Hoodie. But happy with the other items I got as well.
My favorite accessory I got was the Versace sunglasses. I liked the clutches I got, but I returned them since I already owned those styles.
My favorite clothing item ended up being this All in Favor dress because it's very flattering on me. I love the brightness of the blue one, and I love an awesome summer dress.
And my favorite items from the NAS are the beauty items. This is my first time trying Tom Ford and I am in LOVE. I also ended up getting the Electric Cherry during the Beauty Bash.
My mom and I love the original Valentino Born in Roma, so we were excited to try the intense version. It's one of our new favorites.
Lastly, this Airstrait Hair Straightener wasn't part of the NAS, though I tried it out with the Dyson rep during the Beauty Bash and I fell in love. Dyson is so pricey, so I never tried any of the their hair products, but wow, I couldn't stop touching my soft silky hair (and no frizz!) that day. I talked about it so much that hubby says I should just get it because it'll be a great investment piece.

Can’t pick one but ones that standout are BFD lounge set, osea body oil set, AG black wash Farrah bootcut crop jeans, and FP cropped cotton cable knit sweater.
I have my favorites for this year (and a few more items are on the way so more may be added).
* Dusen Dusen robe
* Faherty hoodie
* Paul Green Shay loafer
* Zella Getaway high-low dress
* Natori bliss perfection bra (this is a known favorite as it's pretty much the only bra I've worn for the last 5 years)
* Reiss cashmere black/camel cardigan
Things I've returned so far:
* Olukai flip flop (tested in my home more and they hurt my toes)
* Olukai convertible sneakers (felt weird seam inside shoe which irritated toe)
* Zella skort (I at first loved this but then thought logically about how I'd never wear it)
* Vince camuto leopard sleeveless top (said to size down, tried a size small and it was so tight across my chest and armpits that I couldnt even do the button up behind my neck so I didnt even want to bother with the medium after that)
* Zella relaxed slub long sleeve shirt (too frumpy)
* Barefoot dreams lounge shirt and pants set (got in a medium which fit okay but I tried it on again and wish the bottoms were a bit longer and that the rise was a bit higher)
* Allsaints Elora leather jacket (size 8 was too tight in the arms and shoulders while size 10 flared too much in the body)
* Cinq a sept jewel blazer and pants (material was cheap and the pants fit terribly)
* Allsaints frieda cargo pants in black (way too thin)
* Frame two button flare jeans (too stretchy, gapped in the waist)
* Re/Done "can you not" t shirt (I liked this but for the price, I didnt need it and already have many graphic t's)
I don't plan to keep anything that isn't a favorite other than my Zella anya zip sweater (which is something I needed). If I'm spending this kind of money, even on sale, then I gotta love it lol. I'll see if any items stand out from the rest once everything is here. If I fall out of love with anything in the next month then it will be returned.
I am still waiting on some Eileen Fisher, Reiss and Nordstrom branded items.

Yes, this is what I am definitely planning to do as well, return items that are not loves that I may pick up later if they go on deeper discount. I know I definitely get swept up in the NAS and FOMO. But, I really have enough clothes, accessories, and beauty items that I need to be realistic about. I also need to purge my closet soon and get rid of clothes that no longer fit, that are no longer my style, and that are just not loves anymore. I admit I have an addiction to those good deals, but there will always be good deals.
Next set of Z&V finally showed up! (Shipping across the country is so f***ing slow!). Love both of these - front of black hoodie is hard to see but it’s a standard kangaroo pocket with strings at collar (I always remove the string). I love that the skull is partially hidden by the hood. It’s a nice thick high-quality sweatshirt. The LS tee is sooo soft. I took pics tucked in and not (not that I would wear it with my sweat shorts!).
All my Z&V things are favorites! I will try to get to the outlet when I head to Santa Clara for TAY SWIFT this weekend!!

Yeepppp I have done closet overhauls several times in the last few months and have donated or sold MANY things. I still have a lot I want to clear out. Before I cleaned up, I wore maybe 5-10% of my closet, where now I am at probably 20-25% of my closet. Some stuff is hard to get rid of because I have that whole "sunk cost fallacy" issue. I don't understand how it happens either. I never seem to have enough items to pick from when I go on work trips where I need business outfits for 3-4 days in a row, yet I have SOOOOOOO MUCH lounge or dressy clothing, lots which I never wear.
I'm also only keeping things that I 100% love. I have a closet purge on my to-do list but sometimes it feels too daunting.
I really need to be better about getting rid of things that are just not working for me anymore for one reason or another.
I think I got it this year too, first time I’ve been able to snag it! (If it ships of course). Will def last me all year, I’m thrilled as someone who has used this product for a long time.
These are one of my favorites & totally unexpected from the sale! My daughter was able to snag them at her store when she returned last weekend
Pixie, check out the GA website. The same jeans are likely there and can sign up for new customer discount
I got my Mother Dazzler ripped jeans! Theyre cute! I am not used to mid rise, however these sit well on my hips, and they are the perfect cropped length for me woohoo!
