SHOE FINDS:

I’ll be honest, I wasn’t too impressed with the shoe selection in store. I was hoping for more booties in different styles but they had a few repeats of last years booties, which I own and love but I didn’t want to buy another pair of the same shoe.

These booties below are a new addition and love the chain detail!

Steve Madden Cedar Chain Bootie

I always try to get a few pairs of sneakers during the sale as I love having some options for when I’m running around with the kids. Love the color of this Adidas pair.

Adidas PureBoost 21 Primegreen Running Shoe

And these are a great sneaker to pair with the casual looks above but I also think they would be cute worn with dresses!

Chuck Taylor® All Star® Lift Platform Sneaker

I will be sharing more soon as I ended up placing an order online as well!

Your Ultimate Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2021 Guide

Post author By tiffany
Post date July 12, 2021

One of my favorite events of the year is almost here! The Nordstrom Anniversary sale officially starts on July 28th but if you are a Nordstrom card member, you get early access to all the deals. There are different days that card members get access to which I will outline later on but if you are here to find all the best deals to add to your wishlist before the sale starts, you are in the right place!

What is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?

The Nordstrom Anniversary sale is unlike any sale! Instead of putting things on sale that are at the end of the season, they introduce all brand new items but all at a special sale price! The sale only lasts a few weeks where you can snag the deals but after that, everything goes back to regular prices.

Who can shop the Anniversary Sale?

Anyone! It’s not limited to a special group however, they do like to reward their Nordstrom cardmembers with early access. And within the card holders, each status gets to shop at a different time. Here’s an easy look at when you are able to shop depending on your cardholder status.

If you are not a Nordstrom Cardholder, don’t worry! If you sign up here and get approved, you’ll be placed in the “Influencers” status and can shop on July 16th! You’ll even get a $60 bonus note when you sign up!

How do I know what status I am?

If you are a Nordstrom Cardholder, go ahead and login to your account and it will let you know your status and when you will be able to shop.

Here is what mine looks like:

Where can I preview what’s going to be on sale?

Even if you can’t shop yet, you can see what will be available during the sale! Browse the preview and start saving items to your wishlist so that when the sale is open to your cardholder status level, you will be prepped and ready to add to cart and buy!

Fall Outfit Ideas | Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2019

Can I preview the items in my local Nordstrom store?

Yes! At the Nordstrom stores around me, they will section off a special area in each department where you’ll be able to browse the pieces.

In some areas, I’ve heard that they will check your card status before you allowed into the area, however I noticed that in my area, they let anyone browse but they couldn’t buy unitl they checked their cardholder status. So it may be different for each store. The best way to know is to call ahead and ask if you’ll be allowed to browse the Anniversary Sale pieces even if it’s before the date for your cardholder status.

What to buy from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2021

Each year, I always recommend making sure to snag sweaters, jeans, leggings and booties from the sale, and this year is no different! A lot of fab finds to get and these will be the best prices to get for the season!

Women’s Clothing Picks:

I always make sure to shop for items to build an easy fall wardrobe. This includes cardigans, sweaters, tops and leggings that I can mix and match. I also always get a new pair of pajamas each year!

#1 | #2 | #3 | #4 | #5 | #6 | #7

#8 | #9 | #10 | #11 | #12 | #13

Shoe Picks:

#1 | #2 | #3 | #4 | #5 | #6 | #7

Beauty Picks:

Don’t miss all the beauty deals as well! This is the time where I stock up on my favorite perfume, lotions and skincare tools. It’s pretty much the only time of the year that you can get sale prices on many of these items!

#1 | #2 | #3 | #4 | #5 | #6

Kid’s Picks:

And of course, don’t forget the kids! It’s a great time to get all those back to school looks. I always stock up on jackets, vests and rain boots for the girls.

#1 | #2 | #3 | #4 | #5 | #6

#7 | #8 | #9 | #10 | #11

If you’re curious, you can see what I bought at the Nordstrom Anniversary sale last year and some outfits that I paired together as you will see a lot of similar pieces this year as well.

And check out my top tips for shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale to make sure you get what you want!

Spring Fashion on Amazon Live! (a new way to shop with me)

Post author By tiffany
Post date April 11, 2021

So excited that there is a new way to shop with me: Amazon Live! I’ve never done livestreaming before but I wanted to try it out as I thought it seemed like such a great way to connect with followers and be able to shop together.

screenshot of Amazon Live with tiffanyish

What is Amazon Live?

Basically, brands and Influencers host livestreams where we share products (all sold on Amazon) and you can shop and buy as you watch! You can also chat with us while you shop.

Why did you start doing Amazon Live?

I’ve been a blogger for over 10 years now and I’m so used to sharing my finds through my blog and my instagram. It’s always been done through words and photos and as much as I love it, it’s definitely not that interactive.

I used to get a lot of emails from readers but now it’s all through instagram DM’s or Facebook messages. A lot of the messages I get are about where to buy a certain item that I showed on my instagram but it often turns into chatting as well which I love!

It’s been fun connecting through those avenues but at the same time, sometimes I get so many messages that I get behind and it may take a few days or more for me to get back to everyone.

Since I shop on Amazon so much, I have always shared my favorite finds or purchases. Everything from Amazon Home Finds, Amazon Fashion Finds, to Baby and Kid Essentials on Amazon.

Through the affiliate platforms that I use I can track what are my best sellers and what isn’t selling so I know what my followers and readers are looking for.

My data showed that most of you were shopping more on Amazon!

When I looked at my numbers and reports for my business, I noticed that I had a huge increase in Amazon sales this past year. It’s very understandable since we are all at home a lot more and ordering online more than ever!

Combining the shopping aspect with connecting live with my readers and followers just seemed like the perfect next step in my business which is why I decided to jump into livestream shopping!

Watch my Amazon Live Spring Fashion Finds

Click the link above to watch my livestream. Everything that I mentioned you will find in the carousel underneath the video. You can shop, browse and buy right there!

I plan on going live every week so you will see new livestream videos and I will be sharing everything from home finds, to more fashion and kid’s items as well!

Follow my Amazon shop

The easiest way to stay up to date with my livestreams is to FOLLOW ME ON AMAZON! Just head over to my Amazon shop and click the gray “follow” button next to my name. You can always get updated with my latest finds and favorite purchases on my Amazon shop as I upload there weekly as well!

If you click on the photos there, you can see that everything that I’m wearing will be linked and you can shop, browse and checkout like normal.

The best Amazon Spring Fashion Finds

You can head over to watch the livestream to see everything that I shared.

Below are a few of my favorites from my Amazon spring fashion haul!

Spring Maxi Dresses for Petite women

I’m on always on a hunt for maxi dresses that fit me (I’m 5’2″) so I was so happy to find these and more!

Always a fan of good basics and I found some great tops and jeans on Amazon! These are great for spring and will transition easily to summer!

I like to have a few go-to dresses for the warmer weather. It’s nice to have a dress that you can wear for any event that you are invited to. And of course a few casual dresses that I can just slip on and go!

Ruffle Dress and Pearl Sandals

Waist Tie Dress and sneakers

Must have sandals on Amazon

With the warmer weather, I’m happily putting away my boots and ordered up some great sandals. They are all extremely comfortable and I can’t wait to wear them more now that the weather is finally getting nicer!

Bow and Floral Sandals for Spring & Summer

6 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE SHOPPING THE NORDSTROM SALE

Nordstrom Surprise Sale! (25% off everything!) Here’s what to buy

Post author By tiffany
Post date March 20, 2020

With all of the craziness going on in the world, a little bit of online shopping is keeping me somewhat sane. Nordstrom does not do big sales (they are famous for their Anniversary Sales!) so 25% off is pretty rare and I had to share my favorite buys this past season that is all on sale now!

Everything linked in this post is 25% off or more. This is a limited time sale so make sure to shop now!

What to buy at the Nordstrom 25% off sitewide sale

This top is actually a bodysuit which I love for high waisted jeans. No worrying about tucking and untucking and everything stays in place. These jeans are so flattering for everyone.

Button Front High Waist Jeans

Lace Dresses on sale

A pretty lace dress is a staple in my closet. They always come in handy when I need something for a dressy occasion and don’t want to buy something new. You can find mine here and here, for less than $70 right now!

This maxi dress was one of my top sellers when I shared it the first time. It’s so comfy and a perfect dress to dress up or down. It can go from casual beach to dinner party easily!

I’m such a fan of this dress I have it in the short dress version as well as the bralette!

Stock up on shoes and boots

I have worn these wedges for years and they still look great! They go with everything and basically all what I wear on vacation or during the summer. They come in so many colors and are really comfy to wear for hours.

Even though winter is over soon, now is the time to stock up on boots since the prices are so good! I’ve been wearing these all winter and have found all of them to be so comfortable and keep my feet warm.

Get the details to this look on my winter to spring transition post

Lots of great Nike sneakers are on sale! These are my favorite and highly recommend them, especially if you have a little one to chase after!

Women’s Nike Shoes Sale

Whenenver I see a sale on leggings, I stock up! I have “home leggings” and “workout leggings”, so I actually wear leggings a lot! LOL! I work from home so I spend most of my time in something comfortable and then I can head to after school pick up in them too.

Favorite leggings for at home and working out

Strollers and car seats on sale

It’s so hard to find a good stroller that is lightweight, easy to fold/unfold and easy to maneuver but this is it! This stroller is our absolute favorite. It’s a great everyday stroller but also small enough to travel with.

Cybex Mios Stroller

It’s not often when these brands go on sale, so it’s a great time to get a new carseat or stroller if you are needing one.

Winter 2020: Capsule wardrobe essentials for moms

Post author By tiffany
Post date January 15, 2020

I shared my Fall 2019 Capsule Wardrobe for Moms a few months ago, so I thought I would do a version for Winter capsule wardrobe essentials! I am all about finding good pieces that I can get a lot of use out of and creating a capsule wardrobe really makes you think about what styles you can mix and match to create a ton of different looks.

As a busy mom and entrepreneur, I love outfits that can easily transition to everything I need to accomplish in a day. Typically, I look for basic items with feminine details and mainly stick to neutrals with the exception of some color/prints added for variety. Check out my Winter 2020 capsule wardrobe essentials for moms below!

TOPS

When it comes to tops, I am a sucker for feminine details, so when searching for capsule wardrobe essentials I try to find tops that are amped up versions of basics with feminine elements like a puff sleeve or pop of pretty lace.

SHOP #1 | #2 | #3 | #4

DRESSES & SKIRTS

When it comes to dresses and skirts for the winter, you have to be a bit more practical as you are most likely dealing with cooler temps. A sweater dress is always an essential for me and can be easily dressed up and down. I also love this fun leopard printed midi skirt – it would be so cute paired with a sweater and booties!

SHOP #5 | #6 | #7 | #8

SWEATERS & JACKETS

Sweaters and jackets are one of my favorite parts of the season – I love all of the cute layering options! This year I have been really into sherpa jackets as a cozy layer and this cashmere cardigan is so gorgeous and would get plenty of use.

SHOP #9 | #10 | #11 | #12

PANTS

A good pair of high waisted skinny jeans, trousers and faux leather leggings are my wardrobe essentials almost year round. Just add a fun pair of leopard joggers for when you’re in mom on the go mode.

SHOP #13 | #14 | #15 | #16

SHOES & ACCESSORIES

And I saved the best for last…the shoes and accessories! Classic, quality styles are always my go to. These nude booties are SO good and go with everything. These golden goose sneaker dupes are under $100 and a must have for all my stylish mamas. And this black/leopard tote is perfect to take you from carpool to cocktails.
