Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Picks 2017

July 16, 2017 by Mackenzie

Hello friends & happy Saturday! It’s that time of year – the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! If you are a Nordstrom Card Holder, definitely start shopping now before it opens up to the public (things tend to go out of stock!). Over the years, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has always been an early back-to-school shopping outing for my family. It’s such a great time to stock up on pieces for the upcoming season- at an awesome price! Even though I am not going back to school this fall (which is the strangest thing to say out loud), I am especially excited about the sale this year. San Francisco is pretty chilly, and our summer feels like fall most of the time. Most sales tend to be end-of-season, but it’s nice that Nordstrom does their big one right before the season starts. The selection this year is stellar, and I have already ordered a few of the pieces from the sale!

Without further ado, here are a few of my favorite picks from this year’s sale:one. satin ruffle hem romper / two. embroidered crossbody bag / three. suede mules / four. high neck midi dress / five. spot strappy jumpsuitsuit / six. military jacket / seven. ruffle bell sleeve blouse (ordered this in the black and the blue) / eight. ripped denim jacket / nine. tie front blouse / ten. embroidered chambray shirt / eleven. bell sleeve blouse / twelve. stripe bell sleeve top / thirteen. over the knee boots (just ordered this exact pair!)

The big trends this year definitely seem to be bell sleeves/ruffle sleeves, anything and everything light pink, and booties. I ordered this long sleeve blouse in two colors (which will be perfect for work!) and these amazing, suede over the knee boots. I am so incredibly excited to get them in the mail very soon, and I know will get tons of use out of them all year! Tomorrow I am heading to the Nordstrom store in Palo Alto when my mom gets in town, and I can’t wait to browse the selection in person. This is definitely the time to stock up on basic essentials that you will wear and love all fall!

Let me know what you’ve been eyeing from this year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!

Shopbop Sale

April 12, 2017 by Mackenzie

Hello & happy Tuesday. I don’t usually blog on Tuesdays, but today is an exciting day because Shopbop is having a HUGE sale right now, which will be open to the general public tomorrow (cue fireworks/confetti/balloons/etc.). Though it’s opening to everyone tomorrow, you can already start shopping the sale today! With the code “EVENT17“, you can get 20% off all orders under $500 or 25% off orders over $500 (both full price and sale pieces!) until Friday. This sale is definitely a great time to stock up on the spring/summer staples you have been eyeing (especially things like neutral sandals, denim shorts/jeans, accessories, and graduation dresses.).

I love Shopbop because they have such a great variety of pieces from a ton of my very favorite brands like Free People and Sam Edelman. I wanted to share a few of my favorite Shopbop pieces that are both in my wardrobe and on my wish-list. I decided to include my favorites- all under $200. If I had to pick just one single piece from Shopbop, it would definitely be this embroidered Free People dress. I own it in blue, and I plan on asking for a second one this April for my bday (torn between the black and the cream). It is available in four gorgeous colors and is so versatile. I wore mine 10+ times this summer, and it is definitely my favorite/most-loved dress in my closet!

Let me know what you have been eyeing from Shopbop lately/what your faves are!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!

July 21, 2016 by Mackenzie

Hello friends! The yearly Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a shopping addict’s favorite time of year. For me specifically, it’s the best time to get some last-minute summer goodies & stock up on fall time essentials. Summer is my favorite clothing season, but as fall approaches, I can’t suppress my excitement for autumn shoes- specifically booties. I headed to the Nordstrom in Palo Alto on a mission to find these booties (pictured above). And boy, do I love them so, so much. They are not only comfortable, but I find myself pairing them with everything from flowy shorts and breezy swing dresses. Come fall, they will be the perfect with my long sleeve rompers and denim basics.

Here are some pieces from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale that I have been loovvinngg:

reversible bikini top // elisa pendant necklace // off shoulder chambray dress // twist front top (love it in black) // over the knee boots // ‘avery’ crossbody bag // ankle leggings

Along with my new fave kicks & wish-list picks [definitely did not mean for that to rhyme lol], here are some of my other Nordstrom Anniversary Sale pieces I have had my eye on:

1. tropical yellow pillow, yellow accent pillow, pink pillow | 2. NARS cheek palette | 3. flamingo pool float | 4. “happy camper” graphic tee | 5. chestnut suede booties, cutout booties, taupe booties (pictured above)

Good morning! It’s a super exciting Tuesday because today is the start of the HUGE Shopbop sale, where you can get 25% off tons of things (both sale & full price) on the site with the code ‘INTHEFAM‘. There are so many great pieces on the sale this year, and it’s a little hard to resist snagging some new goodies for your spring wardrobe.

This is one of the best times of the year do some prime online-shopping. I already have those evil eye stud earrings and that tropical romper in my cart! I’ve been eyeing (no pun intended) those Karen Walker sunnies for months now, so maybe the sale will finally be an excuse to finally pick them up. Also, can we talk about all the gorgeous shoes on Shopbop at the moment. From everyday metallic lace up sandals to stunning heeled sandals, the options for spring are truly endless. I’ve linked some of my favorite pieces from the sale below. Let me know what your coveted Shopbop pieces are.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Wishlist

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 / 11 / 12

Y’all. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is here, and I am in love. Lately, I have been a little obsessed with matching pajama sets- so I couldn’t help but add these two pairs to my ‘wish list’ (especially the one with the doughnuts!! Does it get any cuter?). I was so excited to see that my fave Rebecca Minkoff ‘ Mini 5-zip’ purse was live on the sale- in five fabulous colors! My personal favorites are the Ash and Latte, but I could see the Port being gorgeous for the fall. I was also excited to see the Clarisonic brush up on the sale! It has honestly made the world of difference in my skin, and I would highly, highly recommend picking one up while it’s on sale. The shoes this year on the sale were rockin! From Tory Burch sandals to fun fringe heels, there were tons of options to suit every style and occasion. I also loved these classic riding boots that come in both black and brown. I will let y’all know what I end up purchasing from the sale, but for now, this is my wish list!

Let me know what your favorites from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale are! Hope you all are having a great week!!
