Valentine’s Day is right around the corner – do you guys have big plans? If so, there are so many gorgeous new dresses and pantsuits out right now. Although I can’t really squeeze the bump into most of the new styles, I can dress up with a new pair of heels and earrings still! (And a new bag, of course. I’m loving the fresh spring options from The Daily Edited.) See below for a few ideas for your February date night outfits!

November is finally here, so I thought this would be the perfect time to share a few affordable fall fashion must haves. Before going on an unnecessary shopping trip, I browse collections of my favorite brands and retailers, which I know offer the best trends and staples at lower and opening price points. One of those retailers for me has always been Nordstrom. Despite Nordstrom’s high-end reputation, I’ve always found its trend department to be budget-friendly, shop-able, and stylish. (The best part is you still get the premium customer service.) One brand that keeps me coming back to Nordstrom is Topshop. With a variety of silhouettes to pick from and new styles dropping daily, it’s always an exciting brand to shop. Keep reading to find out what I’m loving from Topshop this fall.

The months of August and September can be a little overwhelming to browse because you aren’t sure what season to buy for! Today, I’m chatting about the best transitional dresses to wear during these in-between months – one of my personal favorite pieces to wear daily. It’s easy to get caught up in fall sweaters, but don’t forget that we still have almost two full months of summer heat! Dresses are one of the best pieces to wear as we go from summer to fall because you can easily swap your sandals for booties and a scarf later.

With the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale going live to the public TODAY, things are sure to start selling out even faster. I wanted to go ahead and round up items in two BIG categories that tend to be stocked pretty heavily. The denim and cardigan options in this year’s sale are EXTENSIVE, and it’s easy to get overwhelmed, so I’m breaking them down one by one in this Nordstrom sale round-up below!
Ps. Don’t miss my NSale try-on session post + my NSale shoe guide!
If you love a good cozy cardi, then this year’s Nordstrom sale was made for you! SO many cardigans on sale in a rainbow of colors that it’s so hard to choose just one! Here’s a rundown of my favorites this year:
• The Madewell Ryder cardigan is back this year + it’s always a bestseller. Super soft, runs TTS. Last year I got it in brown and the blush one this year has my name written all over it!
• I think I’m the last one to jump on the Barefoot Dreams bandwagon, but omg it’s so good! I bought myself this ivory Barefoot Dreams cardigan + 2 more as gifts!
• Another option worth looking at (and is still in stock) is this Free People chunky knit cardigan. This cardigan was so popular last fall, I am so surprised that it’s included in the sale!
One main denim trend that I’m seeing this year is CROPPED denim. It’s everywhere in the form of skinny jeans, raw hem jeans, and even flare jeans. Other things to look for are high-waisted styles, distressed denim, and classic dark washes.
• Obsessed with these button-front Madewell jeans! Run TTS
• My pick for budget-friendly denim is this BlankNYC skinny jean. Run TTS
• Best distressed goes to Free People. Note: the light wash runs TTS and the dark wash runs small.
I hope I prepped you enough with this post about Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale because Early Access is in full swing! One of the first things I like to stock up on are the beauty steals and deals. I spotted so many great products included in the sale and have a feeling they won’t last on the shelves. In today’s post I’m sharing a TON of my picks that I currently own and use on a regular basis. (I’ll also be posting a full IGTV video recap on my Instagram too!) I recommend shopping now, so you can mark everything off your list and update your beauty routine. Keep reading for the best beauty buys in this year’s Nordstrom sale!
I’m always looking for ways to keep my hair looking its best, and I leave it to the right products to help me achieve that. Brands like Aveda and Drybar have always been favorites, so I’m definitely stocking up on both of those! Also a favorite is Alterna, and there jumbo bottles are included in the sale!
I’m a true product junkie, so I’m really excited to see so many makeup sets exclusive to the sale – so you don’t want to miss out. With brands that rarely go on sale, like Charlotte Tilbury, Laura Mercier, Nars, and Lancome in the mix, it’s your chance to splurge on luxury makeup without regret.
Skincare products can get super expensive, so I like to take advantage of the sale to test out high-ticket skincare brands. I have my eyes on picks from Kate Somerville and Lancome. Plus La Mer is topping my list of sets to try.
Even fragrance is on sale! From Jo Malone to Chanel and Viktor & Rolf, grab your most-loved scents. You can pick between full-sized sets or rollers – such great gift ideas!
If you have ever considered trying a professional-grade styling tool, this is the time! Quality heat tools are important so you can minimize damage and keep your hair healthy. Nordstrom covered the full spectrum of haircare tools in their sale with pro-quality blowdryers and irons – I use my T3 heat tools religiously!
There are so many new innovations in the skincare world that I’ve been meaning to try. I actually picked up the NuFace’s Facial Toning Device, and I’m also really interested in the microneedling set. My skin needs all the TLC it can get after all this traveling.
