Anyone do any shopping in the early rounds? What did you buy? Did they come already? If so, what’s the verdict? If you are of no status, like me, what’s on your wish list? I’ve looked at a few blogs for inspiration but not much has jumped out at me.

I picked up sneakers for DS1, Caslon T-shirt’s for me which are going back, a pair of jeans that may go back. I’m waiting on a leopard top and leaopard sneakers. We’re not going out much so I didn’t have the usual desire to shop.

https://www.nordstrom.com/s/adidas-s...ig-kid/4591312 Too big - going back.
https://www.nordstrom.com/s/caslon-l...-shirt/4023505 In several colors - didn’t like fit - going back.
I got some cute button fly Madewell jeans that I love (and already ordered a backup pair). I ordered a Theory trench that I'm still waiting for, a Madewell tote, a Nars lip set (super cute in person!), new adidas sneakers for myself & my son. I'm forgetting some stuff - I bought too much!
nope. Moved house and have a larger closet than before and realize how many pieces of clothing I have and yet I wear the same 20 things :)
I shop the NAS like it's the Olympics every year, but just don't need much this year.
Apparently, between storms in Iowa and Chicago, there are significant delays. There was looting in Chicago as well, so it's been a tough sale for Nordys.
I'm only an Influencer level, but my favorite Ts sold out the first day for the Icon's and have not been restocked. I'm sad about a $12 tshirt, but will get over it!!
Supposedly they haven't recieved as much stock from suppliers due to Coronavirus, so there is so much that sold out early.
Basics:
Restocked bras and underwear for the year (I buy the same thing, so easy to reload)
Home:
Nest candles https://www.nordstrom.com/s/nest-fra...-value/4924864
Soft blankets for my kids (these are in the sale every year, but first year buying these) https://www.nordstrom.com/s/nordstro...-throw/3564757
Ordered on 8/10 but haven't shipped yet (Now sold out so I might be SOL):
Best casual T https://www.nordstrom.com/s/bp-sleep...e-save/5201191
Zoom meeting top- https://www.nordstrom.com/s/vince-ca...nt-top/5677113
Elevated T - https://www.nordstrom.com/s/vince-ca...ar-top/5609904
Best workout bra - https://www.nordstrom.com/s/wacoal-c...ts-bra/5128004
Big Splurges:
AllSaints sweater
https://www.nordstrom.com/s/allsaint...weater/5612774 (Military green)
- So far I think I am keeping. Beautiful drape, very oversized I ordered Med and am about 30lbs overweight. Only downside is that sleeves are on the longer side and aren't very fitted at the cuff, so don't push up well. Still deciding on if that's a deal breaker, but otherwise goregeous. If not for the sleeve thing, I'd order in the fawn color too.
Tiny cross body

Haven't recieved it yet, but it is shipping!
I ordered on 8/10, and wave #1 has arrived:
Keeping:
6 pairs of Natori Bliss girl briefs underwear. These are my favorite bikini underwear.
Natori Cherry Blossoms bra. I have been a huge fan of Natori Feathers bras for years so I tried this one and I actually think I like it more than the feathers one so I ordered 3 more in the colors they still had in stock.
Beauty Blender set: 2 blenders, and mini blender cleanser. This was a good buy for me and will last me about a year.
Returning:
Naturalizer knee high wide calf boots: I am returning these. The shoe part fit fine, but I didn’t think the calf was wide enough.
Longchamp Le Pliage tote:
Just didn’t like it. Seemed very overpriced to me. Funny thing is that I had been looking at this style of bag for years and thought the small to large capacity would be awesome, but the bag was just completely underwhelming. I have two 10+ year old nylon bags from Kate Spade that have zippered inner pockets and lining and I love them so maybe I was expecting some of that as well and this bag was just nylon with nice leather straps. If it had been $59 like the Tumi bag (that also slides onto to a carry on luggage) then maybe I would be keeping it, but for a basic nylon bag (that just happens to fold up nicely) I just didn’t see the allure of it. I thought about ordering the Tumi bag now, but decided against it because I am not traveling anywhere.
Natori Feathers bra: see Natori Cherry Blossom bra.
Still waiting for:
Hanky Panky thong underwear
Gibson twist pullover in blue, green, and black
Beyond Yoga yoga pants (these are out of stock as well, but at $59 they are amazing (they are normally $99)....I have been living in these since I started working at home....never thought I would spend this much on yoga leggings!)
Spanx Midthigh shaper short (a must for me when wearing dresses)
I bought a few things after all. I am still waiting for the Gibson twist pullover. I bought one last year and really like it. None of my stuff has arrived yet so no reviews.
I bought 3 Caslon t-shirts because they are my go-to. I was happy to get black, grey and berry. I know to get a small vs my typical medium in those.
Zella 7/8 leggings (will be normal length for me since I'm short). I am looking forward to full length leggings with the leg pocket.
Vans slip ons for dh
Natori Bliss Perfection bra. I thought I bought another one too but I don't see it in my history. I was buying things fast and furious due to sell outs.
Since I couldn't get the Gibson shirt, I got this in navy https://www.nordstrom.com/s/madewell...rd-top/5159010
These Sofft slip ons in pavement. I am not sure about them but I was intrigued enough to try them https://www.nordstrom.com/s/sofft-so...-women/5357472
Finally, I took a trip back in the time machine and bought some boot cut jeans. I used to love boot cuts. I think I bought a pair last year too but didn't wind up loving them so we'll see https://www.nordstrom.com/s/wit-wisd...lusive/5601177
Fewer things than usual this year, as I’m only wearing scrubs to work currently instead of business wear. Need just a few cute, comfy weekend outfits though. I’m feeling like oversized sweaters + leggings/skinny jeans + chunky boots will be my weekend uniform.
I don’t have a Nordstrom CC so I haven’t received anything yet.
I also bought the All Saints Tara sweater in military green. https://www.nordstrom.com/s/allsaint...weater/5612774
I also ordered the Vince striped sweater but it may be too short (I have a long torso) so may return. https://www.nordstrom.com/s/vince-st...weater/5598718
I’m still debating on the All Saints Rufa sweater in khaki green. https://www.nordstrom.com/s/allsaint...weater/5549794. I like the color better but the fabric blend isn’t as nice and it may be a little too chunky. I know I have a green sweater problem :)
I may order the Nordstrom cashmere cowl neck sweater in Oatmeal. Ive liked cashmere from that line in the past but not sure I need another sweater. https://www.nordstrom.com/s/nordstro...llover/4952841
I got the same Zella pocket leggings, and my wild card are these leopard print Dr. Scholls boots. https://www.nordstrom.com/s/dr-schol...-women/5658516
I missed out on the Fresh lip balm set I wanted and the Paula’s choice BHA liquid that I use. Oh well.
Same here. I have not bought a piece of clothing since covid started. However, we just bought a new house and spending plenty on that.Quote:

I feel so luxurious spending $250 total on 3 pairs of Beyond Yoga leggings, but I figure they are my new jeans. I just had to order a replacement of the Asics running shoes I bought in April because I have worn them out with our daily walks. Regular shoe wise I bought a pair of Tieks and a new pair of Birkenstocks.Quote:
