anniversary sale Archives - Page 4 of 4

Ok guys, it’s here! The 2017 Nordstrom Anniversary sale and I gotta say there is so much great stuff! I’m not going to be able to share all my picks just yet but my first strategy is to always grab the best stuff under $100 as those items sell out the fastest. I always buy tops, sweaters and boots at this sale so I’m rounding up the best of the sale, all under $100 on this post. If you are a Nordstrom cardholder, go ahead and add them to cart and don’t even hesitate or your size may get sold out. If you don’t have a Nordstrom card, don’t fret! You’ll still have a chance to get these deals when the sale goes public on July 21. Sizes will definitely be limited so you’ll want to shop them as fast as you can. If you see anything you like now, bookmark it or pin it to your pinterest board so that you’ll remember what to buy and grab it as soon as the sale starts! Now onto my picks…

I’m not even gong to sit here and describe all of these. If you know me and my style, I love tops with cute details that can take your casual outfit to the next level. All of these are so cute and under $55!

1. EYELET RUFFLE TANK
2. TIE FRONT SWEATSHIRT
3. BELL SLEEVE SWEATSHIRT
4. RUFFLE COLD SHOULDER TOP
5. TIE SLEEVE TOP
6. STRIPE OFF THE SHOULDER TOP

I never miss out on buying booties at this sale. They are always the first things to go in my size so I’ve loaded up my cart. I just think booties are the most versatile shoe and look cute with jeans and dresses. I’m particularly loving the Cutaway Bootie. It comes in so many colors, I can’t decide!

1. LACY CUTOUTS BOOTIE
2. STUDDED BOOTIE
3. CRISS CROSS STRAP BOOTIE
4. SHORT BOOTIE
5. CUTAWAY BOOTIE
6. ANKLE BOOTIE

Moving onto sweaters… We all can’t live without sweaters in the fall and winter right? I stock up on cute basics but also sweaters with a twist that you can dress up. And guess what? The lace back striped sweater that everyone went crazy for last fall? It’s back! In new colors! So excited, it’s one of my most favorite sweaters ever!

As you can see I love oversized sweaters. They are just the best in the fall to pair with skinny jeans or leggings.

I’ll be back with more picks later on as I have more time to browse the sale (and will get some in store pics, when I can!) Go shop the entire sale HERE. Happy shopping!

I’ve been out of town for most of July – if you follow along on Instagram you may know that I’m spending most of my time out in Silicon Valley as part of the 500 startups accelerator program. I promise to write more about that whole experience later but first things first, the Nordstrom Anniversary sale! I’m sure most of you know about it, if you haven’t already shopped it. Funny enough, I usually am an online shopper so you would’ve thought I bought everything online but because of work and being in 500 Startups, it’s just been too crazy for me to even browse online so I actually went in store this weekend. It’s been a little hard on me as I spend M-F without seeing my husband and daughter so try to maximize the weekends with them when I’m back home. They both came along on my little shopping trip and they were super patient and sweet to me as I tried everything on.

So a quick recap of what I brought home with me. If you aren’t a Nordstrom cardholder you’ll have to wait until July 22nd to grab these so I’d suggest bookmarking anything you have your eye on! But if you are a cardholder – go get them now!

Shop the post here and click through to see everything I tried on!

This sweater is so simple and cute. Love the lace detail on the sleeves and it’s really comfy and warm too.

LACE DETAIL SWEATER (wearing an XS)

Reg. $78 Sale $49.90

I LOVE faux leather leggings for the fall. I wore mine so much last year that the knees are totally worn in. So I was planning on buying another pair this year and happy to find these in the sale! I will say that they fit a bit loose for leather leggings but I didn’t want them to be too tight so I went with my regular size of XS however if you want them to be more fitted, I would suggest to size down.

FAUX LEATHER LEGGINGS (wearing size XS)

Reg $79 Sale $52.90

If there is one thing that I have a lot of in my closet besides jeans it’s bow blouses. I just can’t resist them. I loved the color of this one and the bow sits really nicely on. Some of my bow blouses, the bow looks weird no matter how I tie it so I like the look of the ribbon bow, it’s simpler and doesn’t matter if it’s perfectly tied or not. I came home and ended up ordering it in the ivory too! The fit is a bit looser than I normally like so I may not end up tucking it in, but plan on wearing it a bit more casual like with the leather leggings so I think it works not tucked in.

BOW BLOUSE (Wearing XS)

Reg $58 Sale $37.90

Hard to take a pic with the phone in my face so wanted to show you the close up of the collar/bow.

Polka dot cardigan – I mean, how can I not? I liked the length of this one, I really don’t like the cardigans that hit just at the waist as those make me look even more short waisted. I love the gray with the black dots, I tend to wear cardigans a ton in the fall and I think this will go with everything!

POLKA DOT CARDIGAN comes in 12 colors! (Wearing XS)

Reg $78 Sale $49.90

And lastly this super cute blush colored blouse with bell sleeves. I love wearing statement necklaces and for work my go-to look is a simple blouse with a pretty statement necklace. Such a cute simple blouse that is perfect for work or going out. I find that this brand runs slightly big. I took an XS in this but if you can, I would suggest to size down.

BELL SLEEVES BLOUSE (Wearing XS)

Reg $68 Sale $44.90

I felt like I got a good amount of stuff but for some reason didn’t see any cute jeans while I was there and ended up looking online and ordering these. I didn’t have a chance to stop by the shoes but got these ankle booties online as well and looking forward to seeing how they look in person.

And if you have a little girl too, I have to mention they have some great sales for kid’s shoes right now! Stocked up on these cute UGG boots for my daughter. They are a lot cuter in person, they are scalloped with little eyelets at the top. as well as these fun floral pair. I love dressing my little as much as dressing myself and can’t wait to pair them with a little dress like they styled this little girl, so cute!
