Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Guide 2020
Happy Monday and Happy Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Day! The biggest sale of the entire year is here and I’ve narrowed down what you should pick up! Since I have a feeling we will be continuing to stay home a lot through the fall and winter I’ve focused on cozy pieces to keep you cute and comfy all winter long.
Cardigans
Starting off with cardigans, including the infamous Barefoot Dreams cardigan. This year they’ve added a cute leopard print!
Tops
I focused on cozy tops that could be worn with leggings for around the house or could easily be dressed up with jeans for when we do get to go out!
Lounge and Intimates
Lots of cute pajamas to keep you cozy! I also had to include my favorite intimates to stock up on. The Chantelle undies are the best for working out and won’t show lines through your leggings. And I usually pick up a new Natori bra during the sale. I also had to include a cozy Ugg robe. I got one last year and it’s my favorite purchase ever!
Coats and Jackets
I’m loving all of the cozy plush jackets as well as some longer styles and a cute blush rain jacket!
Boots and Booties
These Vince Camuto booties sold out last year and I wore them a ton. I also have the Marc Fischer booties that great to dress up or down. And it’s a great time to get a pair of Hunter rain boots at a discount!
Shoes
Lots of cute sneakers, flats, and heels to get you through the winter!
Accessories
I love a felt hat for fall. I also included the straw hat I’ve been wearing and the most adorable Coach bag!
Beauty
There are lots of great beauty options and its the perfect time to stock up on your faves! I tend to go for the devices and bundles that are at such a great price!
That’s it! Card holders with Icon status can start shopping today. Tell me what you have your eye on in the comments!

Now that we are in July it’s also the comfiest way to beat the heat. Here I’ve rounded up some of the white dresses I’m loving below.

Red, White, & Blooms // 4th of July Styles
Outfit details: Dress, sandals, sunglasses, tote We don’t really have any plans for the 4th this year. In years past we’ve had low key holidays at home, family time up north, or a day at the lake. No matter our plans I always like to dress in something that at least gives a nod to the holiday! Today I’m rounding up the styles I have my eye on for a festive 4th of July weekend!

The Summer of the House Dress
A few weeks ago I read an article about the return of the house dress. I am totally on board for this trend! I love throwing on an easy breezy dress in the summer. Sometimes someone will say something about me being dressed up and I’m like, “I literally put on one item of clothing!” Ideally a house dress is cool, flowy, and has POCKETS! Comfy and cool enough to nap in while being put together enough for a walk around the block. Here I’ve rounded up ten of my current favorite house dresses!

Gingham for Spring
My love for gingham will never die and I especially love it in the spring. This gingham blazer is so versatile and I was so excited to add it to my wardrobe! Here are three ways I love it styled for spring.
For work this style looks great paired with a white cami and paperbag waist pants. You can look trendy while still looking put together enough for the office. This blazer is also super stretchy and comfy for a long day at work.
For a date night I love pairing this blazer with a white midi skirt and espadrilles. It’s nice to have something cute to throw on for chilly spring date nights.
Probably my favorite way to wear this jacket is dressed down with a pair of white denim. The fabric is really stretchy and you can easily push the sleeves up for a more casual look.
Thank you to Paige6 for sponsoring this post and gifting me this jacket!

Spring Fashion With PinkBlush
Spring is right around the corner and we started to see some signs of it in Milwaukee this past week! I’m excited to bring out my denim jacket, dresses, and wedges. I wore this outfit this weekend even though it was still pretty chilly outside. I’m just too excited for spring fashion!
I love this new dress I received from Pinkblush. They have lots of cute non-maternity styles in addition to their great selection of maternity and nursing wear. I loved this button down pinstriped dress with pockets and paired it with my denim jacket to keep it casual. Add some wedges, a straw bag, and sunglasses and you’re ready for spring!
This beautiful dress was gifted to me by PinkBlush.Â
