Hey there lovelies!

And just like that …. it’s the last day of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! Are y’all happy with the sale overall? Did y’all snag a lot of the things you wanted?

If I’m honest, I couldn’t be more excited that it’s almost over. As an influencer, I love this sale and I love covering it. It is absolutely worth all the hype that it gets but I do kind of feel that, after a certain point, it just becomes overkill. All the restock alerts on IG stories. All the Instagram post mentions. Etc. Etc. Etc. [I know those can be beneficial and if other influencers did that which allowed you to snag something you wanted …. AMAZING!] Ever since I started my blog, I’ve loved showcasing great deals and things I personally think will benefit your wardrobe but, I think covering a sale for THREE weeks and mentioning it every.single.day when almost all of the items everyone wants are barely in stock is a little much. I want to apologize if my coverage of the sale after it went public wasn’t what you were hoping for, or wanting from me, but I just didn’t feel right about forcing a sale down your throat when everything I had purchased was essentially not available. That’s not fair to y’all and I didn’t want to just keep buying from the sale just to push be able to continue mentioning to sale and tempting y’all to buy more stuff that I wasn’t really into.

Gosh … I hope that wasn’t too much of downer intro to this post, hah! I only ever just want to be honest with y’all and that’s where I’m at. I love me some Nordstrom but there are OTHER places to shop. I’m shooting some cute looks this afternoon with Miguel and I’m excited to share them all with you this week and the next. There are a variety of retailers represented and I promise you can trust that you’ll have a good buying experience from them if you are tempted by any of the items in the posts. Before we get into those outfit posts this week, and since I haven’t covered the Nordstrom Sale that much since it went public, I thought I’d do one last hoo-rah and share the 15 items that you should consider that ARE still in stock and WHY today as a final goodbye to the sale!

[1] COAT: I tried on this coat the first day of Early Access and was instantly disappointed because I absolutely LOVED it but it didn’t fit me. But, that doesn’t mean I’m not going to recommend it! It runs big so size down! It’s GREAT quality. I totally would have purchased it had I had the option to go one size down from my normal. I personally love this brown color, too, because it’s different than what you typically see when it comes to outerwear.

[2] DIFFUSER: I haven’t fallen into the essential oils craze yet but, if you are thinking about diving in, I’d say go with this adorable diffuser. It’s a neutral piece that you can add to any shelf!

[3} CANDLES: The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the best time to stock up on some of your favorite candles. Earlier in the sale, I stocked up on Voluspa and Capri Blue candles that were includes. I also purchased THIS one. I am purchasing this gold candle set. I have heard they smell amazing and am excited to add a few more candles to my collection. I like to keep a solid stock because I burn candles every night so I go through them rather quickly.

[4] HANDBAG: How adorable is this little cross body bag? I think it’ll look really nice with Fall outfits!

[5] SKIRT: Working gals!! This skirt is so chic and it’s under $50! It comes in two colors and, typically, Topshop runs true to size.

[6] BOOTS: As I was perusing the sale last night, I found these boots and they are SUCH a great dupe of the 50/50 boot by Stuart Weitzman. I don’t think these go over-the-knee but that would make them a really good option for girls who feel like that style is a little overwhelming on them. Check out that price! Such a good deal with lots of sizes available!

[7] CAMISOLE: I bought this camisole in the ivory color a couple weeks ago and finally got around to styling it! I’ll be sharing it on Instagram today, so stay tuned for that! It comes in 4 colors and are available in most sizes in most colors!

[8] CLUTCH: This clutch caught my eye last night. I love the color. I think you’ll be seeing a lot of gray booties this year so this will be a great, affordable handbag to pair with whichever one you end up opting for [maybe you should go ahead and buy #14 instead of waiting for those new gray booties to come out being that you’d have to pay full-price for those 😉 ].

[9] SUNNIES: These are my favorite sunnies from the sale! Here are what they look like on:

The full details from this outfit are HERE.

[10] JACKET: I tried this jacket on when I first shopped the sale during Early Access. I really like it. The fit is unmatched for this type of jacket. It runs true to size and is a great Fall staple to have in your wardrobe! I love that it’s lightweight compared to the previous style.

[11] SLIPPERS: I’ll be living in these when the cold weather comes in January in Florida 😉 But … you’ll [likely] be wearing them starting in October haha! I’ll be bringing them on my travels up north and abroad in the coming months, so they’ll definitely get more use than I would otherwise hah!

[12] EARRINGS: Okay, these are still a splurge but these earrings are great quality and I’m obsessed with this tangerine color!

[13] MOISTURIZER: I bought this on a recent trip before a long international flight home. My skin needed some major love. This stuff plumps up dry skin and gives it a healthy dose of moisture! So, now this stuff goes with me in my carry-on every time I travel but if you’re prone to dry skin … you should definitely grab it while it’s on sale!

[14] BOOTIES: These booties were one of my favorite purchases from the sale and I’m shocked they’re still in stock. They run true to size and come in three color options. You can see me wearing them in the photo under SUNNIES.

[15] COLD SHOULDER TOP: I bought this cold-shoulder top a couple of weeks ago from the sale but just haven’t taken a picture in it. Call me lazy if you want but, like I said earlier, I was just feeling like I had already shared enough and didn’t want to shove even MORE down your throat. I still don’t have a picture of me in it so I will share it on Instastories today! I bought a Small and it fits like an XS so I would size up! I think it’s really cute but the print / colors may not be everyone’s cup of tea!

Alright, that does it! I hope you’ve enjoyed the sale and got everything you needed / wanted! Happy Shopping ladies! xo.
