Happy Wednesday, y’all! Today’s post is a round up of outfits, many of which you haven’t seen before.
Some are athleisure…some are from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale…and some are from Amazon. All are pieces that I think many of you might have a need for in your closet.
ATHLEISURE
Let’s start out with some athleisure.
I’m wearing this tee in the next 3 outfits. It’s just a great relaxed fit, and it’s perfect for me because I don’t like to wear fitted tops with my athleisure. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. (And full disclosure, I really don’t like to wear fitted tops EVER.)
These shorts have excellent reviews and come in 3 colors. They are super lightweight with an elastic waist, they have pockets, and they are vented. For size reference, I’m wearing a small, but I’ve ordered a medium to compare the fit because I think I might like them a bit looser. They are very flattering and of course they are super comfortable.
I know many of you were disappointed when the SPANX skort sold out in the N Sale, so these next 2 skorts are awesome options for you!
Want the look of a darling skirt with the convenience and comfort of shorts? You are going to love this skort! There are pockets on both legs and there’s a small zip pocket in the back. The inseam is 3′ 1/2″ inches, but I actually think it reads a bit shorter than that once it’s on. I happen to like it short, so it doesn’t bother me. It comes in 8 color choices, so there is something for everybody! For size reference, I’m wearing a small.

If you want some additional length, this performance skort will give it to you. In addition to being a bit longer, it also has a straighter fit and isn’t as flouncy as the skirt above. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
This skirt would be great for tennis or golf, but you better believe I’ll just be wearing it around town. Listen, a full day of errands is basically a sport. 🙂

Okay, so this isn’t athletic wear, but it’s going in this section of the post anyway.
I showed y’all this banded muscle tee a couple of weeks ago with my paperbag shorts as well a pair of denim shorts. Here it is again with an elastic waisted skirt that I’ve shown before as well. I thought these pieces were cute styled together with my sneakers from the Anniversary Sale. I’m wearing a medium in the tee (more like a light sweatshirt) and a small in the skirt (and it’s still roomy).
And great news, the tassel necklace is BACK IN STOCK! It’s from Amazon and so much fun. I know lots of y’all were disappointed when it was sold out last time I posted about it, so grab it before it’s gone again!

ANNIVERSARY SALE GOODIES STILL IN STOCK
I know when the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale first starts or when it first opens for your level to shop, it’s kind of crazy. There was probably some great items that you missed on your initial order(s), so I wanted to review just a handful of items today that I highly recommend that are STILL IN STOCK.
I get a pair of these pajamas (sometimes long and sometimes short) every couple of years. They hold up great, so I don’t need new ones every year, but I did grab the below pair this year. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
And I was thrilled when UGG sent me this robe last week! Y’all. It’s SO FLIPPING SOFT AND COZY. It’s a splurge, but my goodness it is worth it. It is SO plush and SO snuggly. I’m wearing the navy, but the “pink shell” would be better for me because it wouldn’t show all the dog hair.
LADIES.
THIS DRESS IS FABULOUS. It looks like a Zimmermann dress to me, but for a fraction of the price. I actually think it’s too much dress for me, but that doesn’t mean I don’t think it’s FABULOUS.
OH SHOOT! I just grabbed the link, and it’s sold out. I’m still posting it though because you might get lucky if you start stalking it for your size. I’m wearing a 6, but the 6 was a little too roomy on the bottom 1/2 for my liking (but I don’t think it would work for me to size down in the chest).
And you’re not going to believe this, but the sandals I’m wearing in the pic above are from Amazon. Scroll back up and check out the pic again to see how totally chic they look! They have excellent reviews, and they are super affordable at just under $55. I sized up a 1/2.
I wanted to show y’all a close up of my two favorite pieces of jewelry I snagged in the sale, and both are STILL IN STOCK.
If you were just going to get one piece of jewelry from the sale, it should be these earrings. Super lightweight, and a fun elongated hoop with the chain link design. I’m wearing them all the time, and I know they’ll be even better styled for fall.
Y’all know that I’m OBSESSED with these black Wit and Wisdom slacks. They are the best black pants EVER, but sadly, they are now sold out. 🙁 If you want to get your hands on them, make sure you are checking the site for restocks often and you just might get lucky! And remember to size down 1.
Now, since so many of y’all are disappointed you weren’t able to grab the black pants, I want to give you an option.
These particular pants aren’t solid black, they are actually a tiny little check. They are a super similar material and have a similar fit to the beloved black pants, but these have a little less give (even though they are still stretchy).
The site says they are navy and grey, but the navy is so dark it looks black to me. I’m wearing my regular size 4. These fit a bit more snuggly than the black pants, but they still have a bit of stretch. If you are somebody who is between sizes, you will probably still want to size down.

SOME AMAZON FINDS
This is a sweatshirt that I first showed y’all last year, but when wearing it around the house a couple of weeks ago I spilled red wine vinegar all over it and ruined it. (It also got allllll over Charlie, but that’s another story for another day.)
I was so sad because I love this sweatshirt and remembered that it was sold out. HOWEVER, I was thrilled when I got online and saw it had been restocked it. I bought it again because I love it that much. I’m wearing a large here.

If you don’t live in Texas, you need to know that we are having a SERIOUS heatwave. It’s been over 100 for weeks now, and there’s no real signs of it letting up anytime soon.
I’ll be wearing this adorable floral print babydoll blouse for at least a couple more months. I’m wearing a medium, but it’s still a big tight across the chest.

And now I’ve got a handful of outfits to share that are from Amazon and ON SALE.
This puff sleeve tiered dress is FABULOUS. And it’s ON SALE right now!
There are lots of prints and colors to choose from, but this cheetah really spoke to me.
It’s lightweight, great quality, and I love the fit. It’s not form fitting, and I love how it’s flowy without being frumpy at all. Wear it with sandals now, or style it with a denim jacket or cardi for fall.
And don’t forget that the bracelet stack is on sale too! I’ve been wearing it all summer on repeat!

This DARLING skirt is ON SALE! It has thousands of FANTASTIC reviews and comes in TONS of colorways and patterns. I’m wearing the “C.beige”, but I truly love so many of the options. It’s lined and very well made. For size reference, I’m wearing a small, but I’m thinking I would be a little more comfortable in the medium.

I was searching for a unique top, and I found one! And it’s currently ON SALE for 17% OFF!
This blouse has wide pleated straps and a great square neck.
I. LOVE. THIS. TOP.
The pictures really don’t do it justice. It has a super relaxed and swingy fit that I find to be very flattering. You can wear it out or you can do a 1/2 tuck.

Here it is worn out. I think it looks great with white denim and regular denim. Some sizes of the shorts are ON SALE too. They are from Democracy, so they have the AbSolution technology we’ve all come to love. They are soooo comfy and incredibly flattering. I’m wearing my regular size 4.

BEFORE YOU GO…
I got an e-mail about the CLEAR THE RACK event that just started Nordstrom Rack! Things that were already reduced are REDUCED EVEN MORE. We’re talking up to 70% OFF some items, so there are definitely some deals to be had!

That’s all for today, y’all!
See you back here on Friday where I’ll be answering some reader questions that y’all submitted on insastories yesterday! It will be fun!
