lusts for the week…….

the colors in this mara hoffman wrap are so gorgeous.
great multi-wear piece for under $100 !

// MARA HOFFMAN WRAP //

I am soooo in love the shape of these blouses.
It’s so different but still so cute.

// PRINTED TOP // WHITE TOP //

you know I love a cheeky graphic tank.
it’s appropriate to wear tanks all about drinking cocktails in workout classes, right?
right.
I especially love the Mimosas All Day and the Champs Drink Champagne!
also, all are under $20!

mimosas all day // champs drink champagne
good ~~vibes~~ drinks // tan lines tequila + tacos // sunshine mixed w. a little vodka
drinks well with others // no work tequila tank

// BLUE DRESS //

Two great Fall jacket options for only $100 !
both come in several colors!

// FAUX LEATHER // FAUX SUEDE //

that’s all I have for today.
I’ve been staying up way too late watching the Olympics,
but last night was an especially great night to do so!

lusts for the week……

I’m a little all over the place this week. For once, instead of tons of dresses,
I have lots of tops;I’ve been loving perfectly priced basics to pair with shorts or white jeans now and transition into fall in the coming months.

you know I can never resist an open back. ever.

PINK & GREEN // STRIPED

all of the shells below are on currently on sale.

a little bit of leather somehow seems to be my cold weather weakness.

ONE // TWO // THREE // FOUR

Some silk tanks in solids, all with a longer in the back look that I love and with a perfect price point.

ONE // TWO // THREE // FOUR

and lastly,
some v-neck tee and tank options !
the navy tank comes in other solids but also an adorable striped.

ONE // TWO // THREE

Ok sorry. I’ve been all about the tanks and tees lately.
on to other things……

the three booties below are all under $100 and available in ALL sizes

peep toe booties // cut out booties // western bootie

I ordered this shift dress from the Nordstrom Sale in the pink and the green to try.

It seems like the perfect dress for now and for later, so I’m hoping the fit is flattering!

// SHIFT DRESS //

This sweater is one of the softest sweaters ever, and I love the built in chambray layer underneath for the effect of layering without the bulk.

The Joie sandals are on SUPER sale, and also come in different prints and colors!

LAYERED SPLIT HEM SWEATER // WHITE JEAN SHORTS // FLORAL FLIP FLOPS

all three items fit either larger or smaller than usual so see below :

for the sweater, go down a size – runs Big

for the shorts, go down a size – runs big

for the flip flops – definitely go up a whole size! I luckily read the reviews and a size up fits great.

You can also find them in solidsgold/white/black HERE.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

My purchases from the Nordstrom Sale all arrived yesterday!

I’ll share some of my favorites below.

I know the sale is everywhere and all people are talking about but seriously there is so much good stuff to snag its nuts!

The only perfume I wear is Tory Burch and it was perfect timing with the sale since my roller-ball travel bottle is on its last few uses.

I love when her things come in such pretty packages because I can use the pretty box for something else.

I’m also in love with the reversible belt – it looks great with white jeans now and both the grey + black will work great with fall items.

{ reversible belt } // { two perfume boxed set – save $95! }

As I said in past posts, I am obsessed with these BP Booties.

I got them in two colors to decide which I liked best. (HELP? which are cuter?)

{ BP Booties }

order half size up ! run a little small !

These look a lot like the Rag & Bone knock off booties I wore out from so much use, but with how much wear + tear my boots would get in the Chicago weather I never could justify spending the Rag & Bone price. You can get 4 pairs of these BP booties for the price of one Rag & Bone pair!

** these do run slightly small now that I have tried them on!

If you can, order up a half size! **

The other pair of booties that I love so much are these Peep Toe’d Pretties.

{ vince camuto open toe booties }

Plus, these are something I can wear sooner rather than having to wait for the cooler temps!

Kristin Cavallari is always wearing her open-toed booties in the warmer months with skirts, shorts, and dresses.

when the temps cool off, I’m excited to wear them with my favorite white jeans which are always a steal (and right now on sale even more with 40% off!!) and this adorable lace sleeved sweater.

{articles of society jeans} 40% off! down to $32 // {open toe booties} // { lace sleeve sweater}

The lace sweater is a great transitional piece for fall all the way to spring.

On my TimeHop App this picture popped up today — my sweater purchase from last years Nordstrom Sale!

I have worn this sweater probably 30 times – super flattering with the layered look and the cut.

This years version is below and I love it with the chambray layer underneath.

No doubt you can wear it over and over again!

{articles of society jeans} 40% off! down to $32 // { layered split hem sweater }

I haven’t had a pair of workout shorts since my Nike shorts that I rocked on a daily basis throughout college and in all the years since. I still have them & wear them (and they still look like pretty darn good!)

I normally wear leggings for working out, but now that I’m in this hot summer heat I have been wanting an extra pair of shorts for my outside walks when I’m sweating my buns off.

Even at 7 AM it gets too hot for the leggings.

These Zella shorts are such a flattering cut, and I love any workout tank that is slightly longer in the back and perfectly not-too-tight-but-not-too-loose. This one is just that and has a cute cut-out back too!

{ zella open back tank } // { zella athletic shorts }

tank runs a little loose so can go down a size if you want!

I’m off to debate some purchases, especially the booties and which ones to keep for fall!

I want them all!

July 18, 2016

Today I’m sharing more favorites from the Nordstrom sale catching my eye.

See more of my picks from the NSale with boots + bags + more in this post!

one of my absolute favorite beauty products ;

-this has made my lashes so much thicker and longer. a must for me.

:: neulash serum :: save $100 !!

:: open front cardigan :: // :: hooded color-block sweater coat ::

:: OTK boots :: in three colors // :: tory burch boots ::

somehow leather skinny pants become as much of a staple and as easy to wear as jeans – I wear mine constantly in the cooler months with long tanks and heels for night or an oversize sweater with booties.

:: leather skinny pants ::

the perfect carry-all at the perfect price!

:: oversize drawstring tote :: only $35 , comes in several colors too!

:: navy anorak :: // :: double breasted peacoat – only $38!!! ::

these make such great gifts for so many occasions.

perfect Christmas gifts for mother in laws and sister in laws when you aren’t sure what to give

:: barefoot dreams robe :: // :: ugg blanket ::

the perfect option as your go-to LBD for occasions where you don’t want to show skin but still look polished and put together

:: black sheath dress ::

:: faux leather jacket :: under $75!!!!! // :: RL collarless cape ::

the expandable longchamp bag is my other favorite travel bag (but you all know this one is hands down “the one”) – it’s perfect to fold up when not using and expand to its full size for carry-on’s or weekend trips!

:: longchamp expandable bag :: // :: tory burch hobo :: // :: rebecca minkoff crossbody ::

:: cowl neck shift dress :: // :: bow neck a-line dress ::

:: sleeveless cowl neck sweater ::

Last years version of this sweater was my best NSale purchase. I wear it constantly in the fall + winter (and spring in Chicago!) and get so many compliments – so comfy and flattering because it doesn’t add the bulk of actually layering a button down underneath.

:: layered split hem sweater :: in three color options

:: north face quarter zip :: in tons of colors // :: open back tank ::

I’m hoping some of the items I snagged last Thursday will arrive today!

I’m off to an 8:00 AM Global Entry Interview at the Atlanta Airport because for some reason I thought “why do TSA pre-check when GE is $20 more?” and for some other reason I never did TSA pre-check when I should have which was when I was flying two weekends a month in years past. I’m a moron.

Should be a fun Monday morning 🙂

July 14, 2016

EVERYONE!!!!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!!!!!

For those with a Nordstrom credit card or debit card,

the early access to Nordstroms big sale starts TODAY!

For all others, the sale opens up July 22 and the prices go back up on August 8th.

There are so many good booties to go around this year that it’s impossible to narrow them down. Luckily, if you’re anything like mem those get the most wear probably out of anything in the fall, so they are worth it.

And my Target pair broke just in time for me to snag some new rag + bone knock offs this year!

SHOES

ONE // TWO these R&B always go fast! // THREE // FOUR

FIVE // SIX love this pair in brown too! // SEVEN

Hunters are my favorite addition from last fall. And with the boot socks, I wore them all winter long in the snow.

I love the lace up heels too – they look so much more expensive than they are.

ONE in two colors // TWO // THREE

FOUR // FIVE in three colors

The grey sweater with the lace sleeves will be the perfect throw on and go sweater,
and I love draped sweater coats in the fall so much.

long cascading jacket // lace sweater also love this one // lace detail dress // open cashmere coat

perfect time to stock up on the designer jeans for a much better price!

AG ‘the legging’ jeans // paige skinny jeans // rag & bones jeans

ONE // TWO // THREE

There are so many more great purses, and a lot of Tory Burch still available!
This cross-body style is perfect and comes in several colors

I also love this tory burch reversible belt in two different colors

and these tory burch dillan sandal are on super sale too!

Delicate bralette’s are the perfect thing to wear with my summer tanks that plunge down a bit lower now, and then all into fall and winter under cozy sweaters.
and I can’t resist delicate gold jewelry with small studs. With chokers making a come back this simple style is my favorite way to embrace the trend.
Tory Burch’s perfume is my go-to scent. It smells amazing and I get so many compliments on it. This regular + travel size combo saves you $85!!

honeydew bralette // nadri collar necklace // TB perfume set, $210 value for $125

:: FITNESS ::
Asics are always my go-to for sneakers now (my best friend is a physical therapist and swears by them. when I tried them: no surprise, she was right; now that I’ve switched I won’t go back) and Zella’s leggings and tanks hold up so well despite constant wear and constant washing in the laundry.

OMBRE LEGGINGS W STRIPE // ZELLA TANK four colors and the cutest key-hole back

ASICS SHOES // ZELLA ZIP UP JACKET // ZELLA CROPPED LEGGINGS

They have so much more Zella on sale than I had anticipated which is great! Lots of different jackets, tanks, and leggings options to choose from.

If black or solid workout leggings is more of your style than the prints,
I also love these black cropped zella leggings for a go-to
and of course their traditional zella live in legging cropped and their zella live in ankle length

For a bit more coverage than their tanks, I love their zella tee in several colors too
Their ‘daylight’ track shorts are the perfect length and come in three colors for the sale.

I normally never look at the mens items too much but this vest popped right out.
Kip has a Gap puffer vest that he wears constantly. I love this dressier version with the leather detail for him to wear this fall!

:: quilted vest with leather detail ::

and one of my most favorite items, that isn’t part of the sale,
but snatch it before it’s gone :
my insanely amazing TRAVEL BAG!
This thing was a lifesaver for our trip to Italy last Fall.
this ALWAYS sells out in the cognac leather so fast, snatch it while you can!
I’ve had so many friends get this bag after I raved about it and they love it just as much as me. best purchase ever.

:: sole society mason travel bag ::

I woke up early to snag the BP Booties which look just like my favorite Rag&Bone pair and also the peep toe booties.
Some new workout tanks from Zella and a pair of the shorts are also items that will get heavy use.
there are so many great fall items that I’m filling up my cart more before the sizes disappear like I know they will!
