NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE PRODUCT REVIEW No. 2

Topshop Stripe Sweater Dress, only $42.90
What a cute and comfortable dress! It’s not exactly sweater material, but it’s thicker than you’d expect a normal shirt dress to be, so you don’t have to worry about it being see-through. It pairs perfectly with the vest, and would be cute with a utility jacket over it, as well.
Wearing Size 2 (US 0)
Topshop Faux Fur Vest, only $89.90
Okay, so I was almost certain that this vest would sell out during Early Access but, to my surprise, it’s still mostly in stock. My only guess is that it’s because they anticipated there would be a large demand, so their supply was ridiculous. I say that because the quality of this vest is impeccable. I can’t imagine a lot of people returned it after buying it. The faux fur color is beautiful and the faux fur material is soft and cozy. It has pockets and an amazing ‘right on’ fit. I highly recommend this. It’s a little pricier than most items but … it’ll last you quite a few Fall / Winter seasons. You gotta think about that! 😉
Wearing Size 2 (US 0)

BP. Trott Bootie in Chocolate Leather
So, I tried on multiple booties in the store that are included in the sale and, honestly, am surprised to say I felt like these were the most comfortable. Not to mention, the style is “THE” style most gals want for booties. So, you get everything you want with these. The taupe sold out pretty fast, but this chocolate color is super cute. It doesn’t really look like chocolate but I like it. I was on the hunt for a purse that matches, and found this adorable Michael Kors satchel that I think would work well. 
Wearing my normal size: 6.5
Dreamers by Debut Cowl Neck Sweater, only $27.90
I’d wear this with leggings and over the knee boots everyday in the Fall if I could. It’s SO. PERFECT. And the price …. I mean, you can’t pass it up. It’s selling out fast. Hurry!
Wearing XS.
White Denim is here. Not on sale. 

The North Face ‘Mossbud’ Snap Neck Pullover, only $62.90
The North Face ‘Gig Harbor’ Vest, only $79.90
If you live in a super cold climate during the Fall / Winter months, I can imagine you stock up on the quality cold weather product brands like Patagonia, The North Face, Columbia, etc. Even though I live in Florida, I always end up in Colorado for a good bit of time to make stocking up on some new items worth it. I always love The North Face s fuzzy jackets and pullover’s, and I’ve been waiting for something to come out in this color again. I used to have a zip-up in this color and my ex-boyfriend’s dog chewed off the zipper, lol. Anyway … The sizing they have listed on the website is a little off. I’m wearing an XS in both products and they fit me perfectly, but I am typically categorized as 00. So, be aware of that when you’re buying. The vest comes in some other fun colors, as well.
Wearing XS in both.

Lush ‘Perfect’ Roll Tab Sleeve Tunic, only $27.90
Tunics are a must for me in the Fall. Cold weather, honestly, makes me super lazy in the ‘getting ready’ department, and an easy tunic / legging / boot combo is always my go-to. This is a Fall staple that you need to stock up on now while the prices are so good!
Wearing XS.

Joe’s Jeans Curvy Skinny Jeans, only $119.90
These jeans fit me so well. I’ve had a lot of issues finding good jeans lately. I’m always looking for good pairs and these are great. I need to take them to my tailor to have them shortened but, other than that, I highly recommend them. Haven’t had any issues with the dark dye bleeding on lighter material. I also haven’t washed them yet, but I’m super crazy about washing dark jeans with dark, old t-shirts so if the dye does bleed it doesn’t matter.
Wearing size 23.

Halogen Relaxed Slub U-Neck Tee, only $15.90
This top is amazing. It’s light weight and comfortable. Comes in a million colors. I’m wearing the gray and white stripe one.
Wearing XS.

BP. Long Textured Open Cardigan, only $31.90
I’m ALWAYS cold when I’m indoors. Always. Long cardigans are my ‘go-to’ when leaving the house because they’re easy to get on and off, and are usually just what I need to be comfortable. These are great in the Fall, too!
Wearing XS.

Halogen Cashmere Turtleneck Sweater, only $89.90
Can’t beat cashmere, especially when it’s on sale. It’s not cheap but when you’re going out into the cold you’re going to be so happy you decided to pull the trigger anyway. I love this pretty blush color. Wearing XS.

Nordstrom Floppy Wool Hat in Light Tan [also have it in Heather Gray], only $38.00
This hat isn’t included in the sale but thought it was a great accessory to stock up on now, before it’s “all the rage” and everyone is trying to get their hands on one. It’s always a good idea to stay a little ahead of the next season’s “must have” items.
One size.

Not to best deal, but I just really liked the colors in this plaid print. Overall, very comfortable. Not many sizes left.

Fish isn’t on sale or available to be bought … but how cute is he?? He’s pouting in all these pics because I made the bed and he was REALLY wanting to cuddle in it hahah 😉

Lush ‘Perfect’ Roll Tab Sleeve Tunic, only $27.90
Tunics are a must for me in the Fall. Cold weather, honestly, makes me super lazy in the ‘getting ready’ department, and an easy tunic / legging / boot combo is always my go-to. This is a Fall staple that you need to stock up on now while the prices are so good!

Street Level Vegan Leather Pocket Tote, only $31.90
This tote is amazing. It’s not real leather but it’s a pretty legit faux, and it fits a lot of stuff and will go with a lot in the Fall / Winter months … and the price! I mean … it’s just too good!

White Denim is here. Not on sale. 

BP. Stripe V-Neck Pullover, only $24.90
Sometimes these kinds of sweaters annoy me and this one is really no different. I don’t like the band around the waist. I tried to get a bigger size to see if that would change my mind but to no avail …. I would advise going with the other two options I linked in the widget below the photo. I have this $15.90 option. It’s super comfortable, and cute. I don’t have this one [same price as the one I’m wearing] but think it’s super super cute. Should’ve gone with that one instead of this one.
Wearing Small.

BP. Long Textured Open Cardigan, only $31.90
I’m ALWAYS cold when I’m indoors. Always. Long cardigans are my ‘go-to’ when leaving the house because they’re easy to get on and off, and are usually just what I need to be comfortable. These are great in the Fall, too!
Wearing XS.

Vince Camuto Leopard Print Scarf, only $38.00 [not on sale]
This item is a part of the sale. I came across it at my local Nordstrom and thought it was too cute to pass up. I lost my favorite leopard scarf last year when I was visiting Colorado, and have been looking for a good replacement. I found it in this one. Highly recommend.

Steve Madden Fringe Heels, only $86.90
These will put some sass in your step! They are so cute on [see here] and easy to walk in. Can’t beat that! Dancing may be another story … Stay tuned 😉 Also available in tan and red.
Sonix Seashell iPhone6 Case, only $35.00
Not on sale … just super cute! 

BP. Plaid Shirt, only $24.90
Okay. This is one of the only plaid tops that is this big of a steal and still in stock. I personally love both color options but opted for the navy blue because I feel like I always choose ‘gray’ WAY too much in the cold weather months. The material is comfortable. It doesn’t feel like paper, like some cheap button-up’s do.
Wearing XS.

    I got that long BP knit sweater in the ivory color, but you just made me want the green (even more than I already did!). Kinda want the burgundy too… I finally get my purchases tomorrow, and if I have enough returns, I am going to get that Lush tunic in at least olive, but maybe the pale pink color too. I need more stuff to wear with leggings. I also bought great jeans in the sale and I am so excited!

    I can't resist that furry vest any longer. It looks sooo much better on you than the online Nordstrom photo! It looks like a real rabbit or mink fur vest! I must have it. I also ordered that 1-inch curling iron and a 2 more pairs of those Zella leggings- thanks so much for posting these deals because I didn't notice them when I looked by myself on the website!
