Moody Picks – Best of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Today is the day! I know that you’ve been patiently waiting until the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opened up to everyone and it’s finally here! I can’t wait to see and hear about all of the goodies that you all find during the sale.  I ended up buying most of my items online, so I can’t wait until I get them in my hands.  I’ll be sure to post a review of everything that I’m keeping sometime next week.  I’ve already shared some of my favorites from the early access sale here. But I wanted to focus on a few key pieces that you certainly can’t pass up for the fall like this Topshop Double Breasted Cotton Trench, this Frye Melissa Tab Knee High Boot and this Hinge Stripe Cape.     

Don’t forget that the prices will return to their normal rate on August 3, 2015.  So grab a few things if you can while the prices are discounted.  Check out my previous post of my top 12 favorite summer and fall picks from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale here.

Moody Picks – Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: Top 12 Favorites

I previously wrote about my excitement for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale HERE, but I wanted to add a quick follow up post. I finally had the opportunity to shop in the store on Sunday and boy was I in for a real treat.  I had no idea that early access sale items were going to be sectioned off within the store. It was helpful to see all of the sale pieces in a designated space. And all of the sales associates were super friendly and accommodating. I found so many other great finds and I tried on a bunch of clothes. I didn’t get everything I tried on the other day because my bank account wouldn’t have liked that. So I wanted to share with all of you a mixture of some of the goodies that I bought and some that I sadly left behind.  I created a list for both summer and fall – so check them out below!

Don’t forget that the Early Access Sale runs until July 16^th for cardholders and the sale will be available to everyone else from July 17^th thru August 2^nd. If you don’t have a Nordstrom credit or debit card, I encourage you to sign up for one here.  Or start adding your favorites to your wish list and get ready to shop in 3 days when the sale officially starts. What are some of your favorites?

Moody Style – A Shifty Summer

I’m still pretty excited that I snagged this Lilly Pulitzer for Target shift dress a few months ago.  And no, I wasn’t one of the lucky ones to purchase this dress online or in the stores on April 19th.  Fortunately for me I travel for work every week, which allowed me to literally stalk every Target store that was within my reach. And my diligence paid off when I walked into a Target one morning and I noticed one of the team members hanging a full size run of this dress on a rack.  I quickly ran over to the fixture and she explained to me that a shipment just arrived and the workers discovered a random box of Lilly Pulitzer items. I immediately grabbed two sizes and headed to the fitting room to try them on.  I absolutely fell in love with this little number!  It’s perfect for any occasion and it requires minimal accessories to complete the look.  All of the details in this Lilly shift truly make a statement all on its own.

Dress: Lilly Pulitzer for Target Shift Dress (sold out online, but you can try

to find one on ebay. It’s the ‘Upstream’ print) (similar here and here)

Earrings: Purple Peridot Amour Earrings;

Necklace: Kendra Scott Rae Long Pendant Necklace;

Watch: Coach Boyfriend Bracelet Watch (similar here);

Bracelet: Kendra Scott Arden Station Cuff(similar here);

Bracelet: Target Pave Stone Link Bracelet;

Shoes: Nine West Mean-To-BeTwo-Piece Ankle Strap Sandals

Moody Picks – Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: Early Access

I’m super excited because the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is finally here and just in time to save big on brand-new fall arrivals. Known by fashionistas as one of the best sales around, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale offers discounts to some world’s top designers. The sale starts July 17, 2015 through August 2, 2015; however, if you are a Nordstrom Rewards member you can beat the crowds and start shopping today with the Early Access Sale. 

The Early Access Sale starts today and runs until July 16th allowing you to get the styles and sizes that you want before everyone else. But you have to act fast because the sizes will sell out and the prices will return to their normal rate on August 3, 2015. If you don’t have a Nordstrom credit or debit card, then I encourage you to sign up for one here.  During this sale all cardholders will receive double point on all purchases, which will get you one step closer to earning a $20 Nordstrom Note (another added cardholder bonus).

I’ve picked out a few of my favorites so far that I would love to add to my wardrobe.  I didn’t buy much at the Half Yearly Sale, but I plan to make up for it with this sale. Are you going to check out the sale?  If so, what are some of the things on your list? Also don’t forget, Nordstrom always offers FREE shipping and FREE returns on any item you purchase, so start shopping!
