I read the reviews on the Zappos link and went with a M. I'm usually a 4/6 so hopefully they'll be OK. I figured you have a little give with leggings and maybe I'll get a little extra length.
My order has already shipped!

Loving your finds! I am shopping vicariously through all of you. This thread made me wish I had a place to go where I needed clothes and lived someplace where I could wear fall/winter clothes before mid November.

Thanks to the Nordstrom anniversary sale and some lucky finds at Nordstrom Rack I've collected several pairs of AGL ballet flats over the last few weeks. So comfortable and cute.

I got this dress at the Nordstrom sale. It was a great deal, and is SO comfortable and flattering. Great addition to my work wardrobe! I'm 5'2" and short waisted, so I am always excited to find a dress that I don't have to alter.

I haven't done much shopping for fall yet, but I did order a few things from Gap (while I was also ordering a few items from Athleta last week)
I ordered these pants in olive...

And these jeans, in "vamp red"...

Still waiting for these to ship (although I got the first part of my Athleta order)
Other things I have picked up in the past month or two (taking advantage of end-of-summer sales, since I don't need much in the way of winter clothing)
This peplum shell in burgundy...

My order finally arrived. The purple short sleeve cardigan is my favorite item. It has taupe buttons, which would not be my first choice, but whatever. The color is very pretty and good for fall, IMO. The length is good on me, long enough that it goes past the widest part of my thighs. I got a medium, which is my usual size and it fits correctly. I think it would be cute open over preggo belly.
The jeans are a bust. The stitching on the front pockets is super unflattering. So bad that I don't even turn around to see how the butt looks and they are already packed up for return.
The pale blue sweater is fine. Nothing special, but a decent basic sweater. I bought a large because the reviews said it was fitted and I was hoping for something a bit slouchy. The fit is fine, though the sleeves are actually a bit long--unusual for me since I am 5'7".
The tourquise long sleeve t-shirt is also fine. A very pretty color. The fit is kind of boxy, but I was hoping for something pretty relaxed so I'm fine with it.
Hooe that helps,
Catherine
