#pressyourlifealertbuttonifyouhaveto
And start dreaming of what you would buy with your $1,000 gift card!!!
AND JUST AS FUN…
Start thinking about how amazing it’s going to be to call the two other ladies you are going to give the other  $1,000 gift cards to to let them know IT’S TIME TO GO SHOPPING!
FOR FREE!

Now, before we even start today:
A big ol’ joy filled THANK YOU to Nordstrom for sponsoring this post and making this giveaway possible!  THANK YOU NORDSTROM!
*****

So what are we talking about today?
Sunglasses!
Specifically, Shay and I are sharing our love for our Ray-Ban sunglasses.
Last week we met up at Starbucks to wrap up all the details for the amazing giveaways this week, and we were both wearing our aviators.
Um, hello picture.
 I have to say we felt very bloggerish (act like it’s a word) taking a selfie – with our sunglasses on – at Starbucks – with red cups in hand.  
All I needed was a blanket scarf and a pair of rock studs to have
 been FULL ON FASHION BLOGGER.  🙂
#where’sablanketscarfwhenyouneedone


We both love our aviators, and we also love the fact that both of the ones we own are being price matched right now for 25% OFF!!!
But you know what I love even more than our sunglasses being on sale?
This girl right here.
Shay is the one who encouraged me to start this blog and she is one of my biggest blog cheerleaders!
Doing this blogging thing alongside each other has made it so much more fun!
Love you Shay!
Shay’s glasses HERE (62 mm Blue Gradient) / 
my glasses HERE (58 mm original gold rim)
And several have asked..Shay’s infinity scarf is HERE!

So here’s my deal with sunglasses.
Until earlier this year, I had never owned a pair of sunglasses that cost over about $25.  However, I have several friends (including Shay) that were big fans of Ray-Ban. So when I did a post highlighting sunglasses this summer, I splurged on a pair for myself.  The simple and classic aviators were what made the most sense for me and my splurge.  See the post HERE.
I got THIS pair (with the gold rim), and I love them.

I love my classic black and gold pair, but I do think that the fun mirrored (and colored) shades kick up the fun factor several notches.  I also love the wayfarer options.

Here are some other shapes and sizes from different brands that I think are cute as well:

**************************************

So, since I was being all fashion bloggery (again, just act like it’s a word), I thought I should take some close ups of all my accessories as well.

And I know I told y’all this yesterday, but for those of you that missed that post:
I feel it’s my civic duty to let you know that my watch…the one that I wear in 98% of all my outfit pictures….is being price-matched.

double wrap leather watch 
drusy bracelet (on left) / pyrite bracelet (on right)
 leopard booties (order 1/2 a size up) / baby blardigan

And my leopard booties?  They deserved a close up as well.
I mean, really y’all.
I get compliments daily on these babies.
#meow
baby blardigan /  similar jeans from same maker / leopard booties (order 1/2 a size up)
watch  / drusy bracelet (on left) / pyrite bracelet (on right)

And here’s the rest of the outfit
Simple, but cute.


AND OH SO COZY.
baby blardigan / similar white tee / multi glitter studs / crescent moon necklace (only $20!) /
similar leopard belt/  similar jeans from same maker / leopard booties (order 1/2 a size up)/
watch (25% OFF!)
Size References:  I’m wearing an x-small/small in the baby blardigan, and the jeans are true to size. 
Again, order 1/2 a size up in the booties.
If you are new here today and have no idea what a blardigan is (the yummy sweater I’m wearing), click HERE to see my post on Wednesday where I tell you every single thing you would ever need to know about this little piece of heaven.
And like I mentioned on Wednesday, it is THE ABSOLUTE BEST GIFT to give pretty much any lady on your list.  Last year I gave one to my sister, sister-in-law, mom, MIL, and a grandma!
And they all LOVED it.

*********************************************************************
In addition to talking about my sunglasses today, I have two other recent finds to share with you ladies.
I have been on a COGNAC CROSS BODY MISSION.

I’ve been looking for a cognac crossbody bag, because the one I carry from Sole Society (that I get asked about by y’all every time I carry it – the one in outfits #6 and #7 above) is sold out and is not being re-stocked.

(I even called the company directly to check.)
I am really enjoying my bag (I carry it a lot when shopping at the mall, at the grocery store, anywhere it helps to have both arms free)…and I wanted y’all to have a good option too!
Well, I found THIS one last week.
And I love and adore it.
And I knew many of you would love it too!
Click HERE for the bag.
MUST HAVE shirt HERE (size down) / necklace sold out / watch HERE (on sale!) /
similar jeans from same maker / leopard booties (order 1/2 a size up)

And I couldn’t wait another minute to show this to y’all!
You know how I had the printable to be used with the $8 and $10 BP stud earrings for the beginning of school teacher gifts?
WELL.
Check this one out that Andrea whipped up for Christmas.
You put the earrings on the tree LIKE ORNAMENTS!
You can put on one pair, two pair, or three pair!
Just right click, “save as”, and then print off.

Look HOW DARLING it is printed off and ready to go!
I used the $8 crystal stone studs HERE and the $12 (or 2 for $20!!!) faceted stone stud earrings HERE because I like how sparkly both of them are (love the emerald and navy too)!
These of course make wonderful teacher gifts…but they also make great sister, daughter, best friend, etc… gifts as well!

Here are all of the sparkly options:

**********************************************************
And you know I HAVE TO (it’s like gravity) report on awesome sales when they are happening….so here goes.
Nike for the whole family is ON SALE HERE.
North Face for the whole family is ON SALE HERE.
TONS of Michael Kors watches are being priced matched or on ON SALE HERE.  Some of the watches are up to 50% OFF!

    I love your blog and your giveaways are amazing! I've been wanting a blardigan forever and finally decided to go for it this Christmas, but I can't pay full price and every time they go on sale they sell out before I can get my hands on one 🙁 Do you know if they will go on sale again some time before Christmas?

    I am speechless! No words with come out of my mouth. I would love the skinny Uggs, the amazing jeans you blog about, my first Blardigan, etc. To be able to gift two special people with gift cards would be an amazing gift by itself. Thank you Norstrom, Sheaffer and Shay.

    Awesome giveaway! PTMT introduced me to the greatness of Nordstrom and I love it!! I am approx. 3 hrs. from a Nordstrom store but free shipping and free returns make Christmas shopping a breeze. I would LOVE to give my daughter and daughter-in-law a Nordstrom gift card for Christmas. Both are so deserving! Merry Christmas!
