First up, only 2 entries for the boots. I talked about them way before most of you were reading the blog. Here are the boots that I really hope come back this fall! First pair of wedge boots I’ve ever owned and I’m now a big believer! Thanks ladies for your boot entries!
Next up, the must have wedges!
Click HERE for the wedges!
And here are the contest entries for the wedges:
(oops…I just realized I cut off the head and the wedges in one of the pictures! So sorry April! I just didn’t have it in my to re-do the collage. Totally sick right now and just trying to finish this post up! At least your darling daughter still got in the picture!)
is probably the 5th or 6th e-mail I’ve received that is almost exactly
like this, so I thought it was finally time that I address it!
been following your blog since around Christmas, and I’ve bought
several things that you’ve put on the blog (Kimberly necklace, the J
Crew Denim Shirt,sequin bracelets, and most recently the denim jacket and nude flats) and
love them all! However, for some reason I just never really wanted the
wedges. I have both a brown pair and black pair of wedges that I
really like (both Steve Madden), so I didn’t feel like I needed another
pair.
are so much cuter in person than they are in pictures, and they are way
cuter than they are on the Nordstrom website. I think that must have
been why I never wanted them before. I never really realized how
freaking cute they were!
Keep up the fashion inspiration!
hard to get your shoes in the frame when you are taking selfies of
yourself in the mirror, but here are some of the times I’ve worn the
wedges.
since so many of you have said the exact same thing, I thought it would
be a good idea to finally put it out there…because if one of you
thought it and took the time to e-mail me, then I know lots more of you
must be in the exact same position!
Here are some more of your comments about the wedges:
excited to be emailing you this pic! I bought the wedges per your
recommendation a couple months ago and have worn them a TON! Every time I
wear them I get compliments on them as well…so fun. I don’t have the
other “must haves”, but have purchased several other things that you’ve
recommended (Jcrew Vintage inspired tees, utility jacket from Gap, sequin
bracelets…to name a few). I am finding myself wearing all of them ALL of
the TIME!
doing….I really look forward to reading every day!
name is Tara Crockford and I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I love
your
blog and have been obsessing over these wedges for a few months. I
finally did
it – I went online to Nordstrom and ordered them! I had to pay an extra
$40 for
shipping and border costs – but it was SO worth it! These shoes are
amazing!!!Thank you Sheaffer for introducing me to these wedges!
Have a great day!
Tara Crockford
I had another reader (Megan) pay $40 to ship the jacket to Australia,
and she said it was worth every penny too! So glad you love it Megan!
I am absolutely obsessed with these wedges!! I am not a heel person and always
pick flats if I have the choice – but these wedges are the most comfortable
pair of shoes I own. Definitely a must have!! Thanks for featuring them;
without you I wouldn’t know what I was missing 🙂

I’m the “Sandy” that Claudia Stiles mentioned in her message to
you about the beloved wedges. First of all being mentioned on your blog
makes me a little star struck. I’ve been reading your blog for months and
now constantly rely on you and Pinterest to make my fashion choices.
I had been thinking about the wedges since you first mentioned them.
We don’t have a Nordstrom within 75 miles so I didn’t want to buy them without
trying them on first. Not that I didn’t trust your word, but I’m just not
usually a wedge girl. Anyway, we are sitting out on the deck at this
party Friday night and Claudia walked up wearing the wedges. I didn’t
know her but the party was for a mutual friend. Immediately, I ask her
about the shoes and she said that she knew you. She took the shoes off
and I pranced around right there, in front of everyone, and fell in love with
the wedges. Right then and there I knew that was God’s way of saying, that
“yes, I must get the shoes”. He does work in mysterious
way!!! I came home and ordered them immediately and they arrived
today. I’m wearing them as we speak, with my running shorts and a
tshirt!!!
Thanks for your blog! I love it! Because of it, I have some
fabulous fashion ideas, new wedges and a new friend in Claudia.
Thanks again,
Sandy Carter
CLICK HERE FOR THE JACKET that is now 33% off!
perfect in every way! And here I threw it on over a comfy summer dress. Love
that it’s so versatile! And the color, fit, sleeve options & how comfy it
is….really is perfect. Thanks for suggesting it! Alana 🙂
selfies that I took of me wearing the Kut denim jacket in size XS last week.
I’ve gotta say that I was nervous about how fitted the sleeves were at first
& I almost returned it. I’m so glad that I didn’t because the sleeves have
stretched out to a perfect fit! I usually have a problem with arm sleeves being
too big & these are awesome! Also, I love that it’s cropped but not too
cropped. And, it’s the best color for summer! I’ve worn it almost daily for the
last week. It was fab for the airplane too! Thank you for sharing your find!!
entry to your must-haves contest. I ordered the denim jacket online
the day you put it up and have basically been wearing it every day!! One night
I literally played dress up in my closet and put the jacket on with every
different outfit I could think of and it looked cute with all of them! I was
annoying my boyfriend because I kept showing him how it looked with all of my
dresses. It really does work with everything!
boring but I had to take a picture before I forgot. See – it makes even a
boring outfit look cuter! I added some wedges before I walked out the door but
not THE wedges. I probably need to get those next!
🙂 thank you!
Hi Sheaffer! You were so right, this denim jacket is unbelievable. I can’t believe how light and comfortable it is. I have already worn it like 5 times, and I have tried it on with so many things in my closet and it literally looks good with everything. It is my favorite item in my closet now! It is definitely a must have and everybody needs it.
I also have the military jacket, the nude flats, and the new distressed jeans you just talked about. Love them all!
Thanks for the recs!
Elizabeth Grayson
HAVE items! You all looked FABULOUS and I am just happy that you ladies
are all thrilled with your purchases!
THIS oatmeal linen blazer! They just re-stocked and got some new sizes!
Remember, lots of the reviews suggest ordering 1 size up! I did, and got a medium.
It was good for me.
THESE sequin bracelets (that are now on sale!)
THIS Kimberly necklace
THESE nude flats
(I’ve been so happy about the feedback that I’ve already received from these!)
THESE cut-offs that are now 30% off
THESE distressed jeans that are now 33% off
(I received mine in the mail this weekend, and I like them even more than I remember liking them in store. The cuffs on the bottom are so cute and they are perfectly distressed!)
Also, totally random, but I did see these other items on sale that I thought some of you might be interested in:
LOFT is having a serious shorts event! All of their shorts are either $18 or $22!
Click HERE to shop shorts!
THIS leather jacket is 60% off.
I know it seems weird to be posting a leather jacket on July 2nd, but for 60% off I thought it was worth a mention! PLUS, GORGEOUS!
I saw it in the store but they only had it in extra large. It is beautiful in person.
The leather is so soft and it is such a pretty soft color.
THIS khaki colored utility jacket that is 60% off!
It was originally $298, and now it’s on sale for $119! There are only 2 sizes left, so if it’s your size, you might want to snatch it up. Looks like a great jacket!
THIS 2 button linen blazer is 40% off and it comes in 3 colors!
THIS collarless blazer in oatmeal is 33% off.

Mix and Match Mama says
I have the wedges. I have the jacket. You were SO RIGHT about both! I can't wait until you find my next must have item!!
Saxon says
Okay, OKAY! I've been to the Nordstrom sight several times, stalking the jean jacket. I pulled the trigger this morning after reading this post. I don't think I can live without it any longer!
Kellyann Rohr says
Oh Sheaffer you genius! I went to Nordstrom last night to pick up my denim jacket – we are going on vacation in a few days and I didn't want to risk not having it so I arranged for in store pick up. While I was there I saw the leather jacket you referenced today and it is so soft – like butter and just gorgeous!!!! I added it to my wish list and am seriously considering it but living in Florida presents its own set of reasons why it is not a must have for me. My jeans arrived yesterday via UPS and I love them. I have the wedges in two colors and other items you have recommended. You are always spot on. I am however kicking myself for not ordering your oatmeal blazer. I found it on the clearance rack last night in white and in blue and the fit is perfection. I have a white linen blazer already but I am thinking of ordering the white because it is so darned cute! Lesson learned – next time you say to get something I will. I am 45 years old and I think I have used my age as a reason not to jump when you say jump – I find myself thinking maybe I am too old to dress like your young self. Well today marks a new era – my age will not hold me back any longer. I will do as you say! You are amazing and I love your blog!!! Thanks for all you do for all of us – WE ARE YOUR PEOPLE!
Sheaffer says
Kellyann! You are too sweet!!!!! I'm so glad you are enjoying the blog and even more thrilled that you are loving all of your purchases. I'm so glad you said that about the leather jacket. I am seriously considering ordering it after hearing what you thought about it too!
Keep on reading and keep on rocking your purchases! 🙂
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Julie H. says
I have the wedges and am waiting the arrival of my jacket (UPS says today!! This is my excited face 😀 ) LOVE all your suggestions! Keep them coming
Heather says
Girl, Nordstroms needs to start paying you a commission! PS.. I have the wedges and LOVE them!
aprilparrish says
Loved seeing pics of everyone in their "Must Haves!" This was a great idea and lots of fun! You deserve a break after putting all this together! And I forgive you for cutting off my head & wedges!!! LOL!!!! 😉 Have a blessed day!
Jackie Watson says
Hi Sheaffer! I ordered the jacket and again, you are right! Love, love, love. After reading this post I am seriously considering the wedges. What's been holding me back is that I am 5'10" and I am afraid the wedges would be too tall. However, I have very little will power when it comes to shopping and most especially shoes so if you keep singing their praises or if they go on sale, I may cave. Thanks for great fashion and a great blog. I have been a daily reader since the beginning and you never disappoint!
Sheaffer says
Hi Jackie! You should totally order them! Nordstrom is so great about returns that if you feel too tall, you can just take them back! Thanks for being a daily reader!!!! I appreciate you!
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Anonymous says
I am 5' 10" as well and bought the wedges. I love them, even if I do get comments every time I wear them on how tall I am in them. But every comment has been along the lines of "You are awesome for rocking those wedges even though you're tall!" So I say go for it but prepare yourself for the attention….especially if you wear them with short shirts (and why wouldn't you?!) 🙂
Shawnee says
So I finally ordered the jacket and the wedges today!!! 🙂 I'm not a wedge person or a jean jacket person but they are just so cute on everyone so I'm hoping I love them as much as all of you!!
Sheaffer says
Yay Shawnee!!!! Please let me know when you get them and you are in LOVE too!!!!!
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Whitney of Washington says
Thank you so much for the heads up on the shorts sale at the Loft. I've been on the hunt to find the perfect summer shorts but haven't tried there yet. I'm a runner and have pretty muscular legs so finding shorts that don't make me look like a women's soccer player or wrestler, but still age appropriate (not too young, but not too old) has been nearly impossible. I'll be heading over there during lunch today!
Thanks Shaeffer! Have a great day!
Whitney says
Just ordered the wedges in patent yellow – on sale!! 9M (my size!)is the only size they have left – for $26.90!! Plus free shipping?? I'm excited to try these wedges!

I am SO excited!! Thank you so much Random Number Generator & of COURSE Shaeffer who is SO awesome! Made my day! I sent you an email, Shaeffer. 🙂
CrazieChrisa says
I'm dying to order the jacket and shoes but with all out traveling this summer it's just not in the budget. I'm hoping to try out the jean shirt and white bottoms with nude shoes this week while on vacation!
CrazieChrisa says
I'm planning to try out the jean shirt, white bottoms and nude shoes this week on vacation. Once we get get done with all our travels this summer, I'm going to save up for the jacket an shoes!!!!!!!!!
Laura Fuller says
My picture didn't make it in the wedges collage. Boo… Still love them anyway.
Sheaffer says
Hi Laura. I am sooooooooooo sorry! 🙁 I was so afraid this was going to happen. I checked my file and your entry is definitely in the file, it just somehow didn't make it into the collage. Next contest, please e-mail me directly to remind me, and I will give you 5 extra entries. (Your blogger settings are set to "no reply", so I couldn't respond directly to your blog comment. I hope you check back here.)
xoxo,
Sheaffer
kristinwithani says
So helpful to see the jacket on others. The Nordy's site makes it look funny. It looks shorter on you than I prefer. BUT seeing it on other women may make me take the plunge. I mean, free shipping…. You didn't steer me wrong with the wedges!
I've been looking for a denim jacket for over 3 years. Not kidding.
kbdesign says
I was thinking the same thing (that the jacket would be too cropped/short) but once I tried it on- I fell in love! Definitely get the jacket! I bought it on Wednesday in the store and am wearing it today. I would have worn it yesterday as well but it was too hot for a jean jacket.
Tara G. says
The whole thing just makes me smile!
Alison @ Get Your Pretty On says
Girl, you have a cult following! No wonder, these picks are so darn wearable and perfect. I am a Sheaffer devotee too, giving you a shout out this Friday for your cute cut offs. I'm on the bandwagon now!

So excited….my denim jacket just arrived yesterday, as well as some fun sequin bracelets. Thanks to you Sheaffer!!

I finally made it to Nordstrom to try on the jean jacket and I absolutely LOVE IT! I have been reading your blog since your first entry (thanks to a link via Shay's blog) and will be purchasing all your MUST HAVE items from now on! For anyone who is still considering the jean jacket- just buy it!!
