I thought of something to cheer us all up.
Make sure you read to the end to see what I got!)
(Plus, do you know what’s better than buying yourself things at good prices? Buying other people gifts that look like they are more expensive than they actually are. Right? Just keeping it real.)
Everything on this post is at Anniversary Sale Prices!
Or maybe you need to buy a Christmas gift for a family member who just had a baby!
Get the initial of the baby’s first name!
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
(all of the below necklaces are also available in silver)
Here are some other sweet little necklaces.
BELIEVE With All Your Soul, WISH with all Your Imagination, LOVE with all your heart
Any guy will do.

I always love the Beauty Exclusives available during the anniversary sale,
and they did not disappoint this year!
Laura Mercier brush set and case HERE
Bobbi Brown set HERE
Trish McElvoy set HERE*
*This set is absolutely incredible. The sale price for the set will save you almost $200!

And you guys know how much I love my Clarisonic.
Look at this version!
Isn’t is DARLING?

And I talked about this bracelet earlier this week or last (can’t remember).
I am sooooo happy that I got it for myself, but it would also make a great Christmas gift!
Click HERE for the bracelets! Such a good price!
Maybe you want to give some designer jewelry?!?
Kendra Scott earrings (these sold out, other anniversary sale KS pieces HERE)
Michael Kors bracelets HERE
And y’all.
Do you know about Voluspa candles?
They are fabulous (just check out the reviews)!
Nordstrom put together these different candle trios at a reduced price of $40 (this size candle is normally $16 each). And the anniversary sale price is $29.50 for all 3!
You could give the set all together, or you could even separate it out and give it as 3 different gifts!
They would be great to have sitting at your house to hand to that neighbor or friend who unexpectedly stops by with a Christmas gift. (It’s happened to all of us, right?)
Click HERE for the candles!
A couple of more ideas:

And finally, I saw this…and I felt like it was made especially for me.
Too bad I saved the picture earlier in the week, and then when I went to find it on the site again for this post. I couldn’t. 🙁
If somebody finds it, please leave the item # in the comments so others can find it too!
Okay, so I know you are all just dying to know what boots I got.
You all know I bought the wedge boots (HERE) already, and I was now just trying to decide on a black riding boot.
I walked in thinking I was 98% sure I was going to walk out with the Michael Kors beauties I fell in love with last week.
Well. I totally surprised myself and ended up going with the Ecco boots.
Wait for it…….IN BROWN!
I know.
The center picture shows a good shot of what color the brown is. It’s a nice rich “espresso” brown. It’s a deep brown (but not too brown), and you can totally tell that it’s brown.
The pictures of me in the boots are a little misleading. I have a different size on each foot, and 1 is black, and 1 is brown. The lighting was weird where I was trying to take pictures of me in the boots, so it’s hard to tell the color difference. In real life, it’s not hard at all.
The brown is a true chocolatey brown, and the black is a true black.
The MK boot, although I still LOVE it and think it is SO gorgeous, ended up being just a little dressier than I wanted it to be.
And the Ecco brown boot was such a rich and pretty dark brown (where my wedge boots are a much more cognac brown), so I was okay with having 2 pairs of brown boots.. Plus…the sole (which you can see from the top) is black, which I loved. I figured I can wear these Ecco boots with anything I wanted to wear with brown boots….
as well as with just about anything that I would wear with black boots.
Click HERE for the Ecco boots!
I’m very pleased with my purchase!
Well…..I hoped you ladies were inspired to start your Christmas shopping early!
Come back tomorrow for a joint Pinspired Linky Party / Bachelorette Recap.
And come back Friday for the contest collages and for the $100 contest winner!

First of all,I am giddy with excitement that summer is almost over! And second of all, I'm about to have Andrew get our trees down from the attic because this mama wants to decorate for Christmas! This post was so fun!!! I'm singing Jingle Bells right now. I love shopping for Christmas in July :)!
Kimberly says
I see a lot of things I want for Christmas presents! Love the initial necklaces.
Beth says
Awesome idea for Christmas gifts!!! Yay! I'm kind of over shopping for myself but for other people- that's a different story!!!
aprilparrish says
Great ideas for Christmas shopping! Love your new boots!!! Enjoy!
Lisa Rogers says
Wow! A second pair of brown boots! You know, I TOTALLY get it. I was geared up to find a pair of black boots during the sale and just couldn't seem to pull the trigger. My old black UGGS are ready for burial in the back yard with the pets and haven't been worn in close to two years. But I haven't really missed not having a wearable pair of black boots, or at least I didn't last winter. I think you'll enjoy having both pairs of brown boots. Also, my Zella pants (I went with the "move" version) came yesterday. I put them on, wore them the rest of the day, then threw them in the washing machine so I could wear them again today. They're that great.
Sara says
I ordered the Miz Mooz wedge boots in black! I tried on the brown ones in the store and I loved them, but I already have several brown boots and no black, so I hope I love them! My Nordstrom didn't carry the black ones.
Kim Kauffman says
I can't hardly think about summer being over! Summer doesn't normally start here in the Pacific Northwest until after the 4th of July…plus having had a baby has made me be stuck inside more than normal. So saying goodbye to the sunshine and hello to the RAIN, RAIN, RAIN (October/November through April/May makes me sad! I do LOVE Christmas though!
Lauren says
I love all your picks! I was trying to find things for Christmas gifts, but my credit card hates me right now thanks to the Anniversary Sale! I ordered a few of "the shirts" in petite and regular sizing to see how they'll fit! I can't wait to get them! They looked so cute on you and I know they'll look great with my new boots. Loving those ecco boots! I definitely think they're more versatile than the MK ones!

OMGosh, I wrote up my Friday post yesterday and put that MK watch in it and completely blamed you for being the devil on my shoulder telling me to buy it. 🙂 You're bad for my budget in a really good way!
Jennifer says
I couldn't live without my Clarisonic!! Best invention ever!!
Elvira Gratereaux says
Loved the bracelets! definitively working on my christmas gifts list right now to catch some of these deals! awesome post!
Susan Jeffries says
I love all of it – the initial jewelry is my favorite, and the make up, and the boots! How would I pick? Maybe I will just send you money and you can Christmas shop for me;) Blessings. Susan
Shelby says
I just had to get on here and thank you for sharing about those gorgeous Miz Mooz brown boots! Mine came in today, and I would never have known about them if not for you, since we don't have a Nordstrom here! Thanks so much!!! 🙂
Jen Pogue says
I love the initial necklaces-I'd totally buy one for myself if I didn't already own several. 🙂 Now, I'm trying to think of who I can buy one for…hummmm. Those brown boots you got are so cute!
Ashlee says
For the cz earrings what weight would you suggest before they start looking fake? We don't have Nordstroms in Oklahoma so I can't run and look at them myself 🙁
Also I just wanted to tell you the must have shirt was out in the red and I needed it (it looks perfect to wear to OU games) and so I just kept checking it and it came up for a few minutes last night and I snatched it up! Thanks for doing all the leg work for us!
Mary E. says
I made the same decision on the boots! Awesome call!
Mary E. says
Sheaffer, how do you pre-treat and care for your boots? thanks!
Sheaffer says
Hi Mary! I don't do anything! Maybe I should look into that?!?
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Mary E. says
I have no idea! Was curious because this is my first pair of "nice" boots
