In the Mood - Shopbop Fall Event of the Season

Hey ladies! I'm a little late sharing all of the details for the Shopbop sale this year.  Today is the last day of the sale, but don't worry because you have until 12am PST to shop.  This is the sale that I usually focus on picking up higher priced items that I wouldn't normally grab because of the great savings.  Right now you can save either 20% off your order of under $500 or 25% off your order of $500+ when you use code: STOCKUP19 at checkout.  

I own a few of the items listed below from previous Shopbop sales and some of them are back and on sale.  My Karen Walker sunglasses were a big splurge for me a few years ago and they have been my go-to sunnies, lots of cute tops, designer jeans, Tory Burch sandals and designer handbags are all included.  Let me know in the comments if you are able to snag any thing good.

Here are a few items that I'm loving that are all under $100!

Here are a few splurge-worthy pieces that are worth taking a look at during the sale!

Check out all of my picks below with a few details on the ones I own!

In The Mood: My Nordstrom Anniversary Purchases

Happy Friday everyone! Today  is the day!  The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is officially open to the public.  I’m sure most of you know that this sale is the best time to stock up on some great fall essentials.  If you’ve had your eye on a particular item, there’s 3 reasons why you shouldn’t hesitate to add it to your shopping bag.  First, Nordstrom offers free shipping and free returns, so if you’re on the fence about an item or it doesn’t fit correctly, just return it – pretty simple.  Second, your size and favorite colors are selling out fast.  Hopefully, Nordstrom will continue to restock their inventory, so don’t give up if your item is no longer available. I’m definitely keeping my fingers crossed for a few items to pop back up that are still on my wishlist.   And finally, the sale ends on August 7th and the prices will go back up on August 8th.  The only thing worse than seeing an item that got away is seeing it get away at a higher price point.  Don’t let this happen to you ;)

I wanted to share with you a  few of the things I’ve bought so far and most of them are still in stock online.  I’m anxiously waiting for my items to arrive, so I’ll start taking pictures of everything when they get here.  Check out my shopping bag and let me know what are some of your favorite #NSale picks so far.  Are you planning on shopping the sale this year?  Have you bought anything yet?  Let me know in the comments below! 

Also check out some of my previous posts about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale for more ideas: #NSale Fall Favorites Under $50, #NSale Fitting Room Reviews, #NSale Early Access Must Haves and Guide To Shopping The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.  Have a great weekend and happy shopping friends!  

In The Mood: Guide To Shopping The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

We are only a few days away from one of my favorite sales of the year - the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. 

WHAT’S THE NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE?

I have to admit, two years ago I didn’t really understand all of the fuss over the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, but now I’m completely hooked. 

The Anniversary sale is Nordstrom’s biggest sale that they offer only once a year.  They add brand new fall styles to their inventory and mark it down for a limited time.  So you can shop for next season’s on-trend fashion picks right now for seriously discounted prices.  

The prices at the Anniversary Sale are typically the lowest we will see on select items from brands like Rebecca Minkoff, Rag & Bone, Joie, Treasure & Bond, Zella, Nike and so many more.  And once these items sell out, they are generally gone because Nordstrom will only stock a limited quantities for the sale.

WHEN CAN I SHOP?

The Anniversary Sale officially starts July 22nd and it ends on August 7th.  However, if you are a Nordstrom cardholder, you can shop the sale early from  July 14th through July 21st.

Not a Nordstrom cardholder? If you don’t want to miss out on some good deals, then I highly suggest you register for one now. You have the option of choosing between opening up a Nordstrom credit card or opening up a Nordstrom debit card. I personally chose to open a Nordstrom debit card because I don’t have to worry about paying off another bill and I can still earn points. You can click HERE to get your own. 

HERE’S A FULL LIST OF IMPORTANT DATES:

July 14th | Early Access for Nordstrom Cardholders Only

July 22nd | Anniversary Sale Open to the Public

August 7th | Last Day to Shop

August 8th | Prices Go Back to Full Price

WHAT’S ON SALE?

As I mentioned before, there are select items on sale from brands like Rebecca Minkoff, Rag & Bone, Joie, Treasure & Bond, Zella, Nike and so many more.  If you want more details, then check out some of the items that are going to be on sale in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2016 Catalog HERE. Keep in mind, the catalog only shows at least half of the items that will actually be on sale! 

I love this sale because it’s the best time to start thinking about my fall wardrobe.  Here are five things I’m hoping to add to my closet this fall: a lightweight jacket or sweater coat, a pair of over-the-knee boots, a classic pair of skinny jeans, a neutral handbag and a timeless piece of jewelry.  Can't wait to start shopping!
