My experience with both items is that they ran a bit smaller in the chest and maybe through the shoulders than J. Crew, but not extremely so. The only thing I remember with returning the Kasson is they don't give you as long to get the item back to them (4 weeks, maybe?) which isn't the end of the world, but just something to be mindful of.

Have you purchased anything from this F/W collection?<br /><br />Wendy, the Yoshi sweater looks great! I saw it on the "Grechen's Closet" blog. Very flattering in spite of being so oversized. I really love the black-red colour that they've just released.

It's a little more than I tend to spend on one piece, but could be a workhorse. I'm trying to buy less quantity, more quality.

Everything I've purchased has been high quality and well made. I love that the garments are made in the USA. I'm trying to find past season items that I missed out on before I knew about EF. The minimalist cool girl chic vibe really appeals to me. I find sizing to be close to J. Crew though some things are intentionally oversized.

I'd been staying off of their site for my own safety, but of course when I looked the other day there was a pair of sale shoes that were love at first sight. When I went back to buy them the next day, they were gone. I've checked back a few times, but no sign of them so far. Is there anyone here who follows the ebb and flow of Anthro a bit more closely?shopgrrrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05256902910449845128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-17972291792117290772015-10-21T02:53:11.132-04:002015-10-21T02:53:11.132-04:00Madewell has some new arrivals!

I was happy to see that the new Vancouver Nordstrom is carrying Madewell items -- an extremely paltry selection, but nice to have the option to see or purchase certain items without being subject to Borderfree!Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12599893377335361408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-56065931351745523112015-10-21T02:23:05.485-04:002015-10-21T02:23:05.485-04:00For anyone interested in Emerson Fry, they are hav...For anyone interested in Emerson Fry, they are having a great moving sale on their sweaters -- 35% off using the code EFSweaters1015. Terms: Not to be used with any other discount. Does not apply to previously place orders / previously discounted items. Order must be placed by 11:59PM EST on Sunday, October 25.<br /><br />I'm interested in the Long Wool sweater -- either the triangle version, or the solid in black, however, I'm always unsure with this type of oversize fit, as I'm pretty short at 5'3. Just love the apparent quality of the wool, and the cozy look of this sweater!Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12599893377335361408noreply@blogger.com
