One of my favorite posts every month! It’s DEFINITELY the most fun to prepare for!
You can find Shay’s post HERE. She highlighted lots of awesome stuff from GAP
that is great for spring.
True to form, I stuck with Nordstrom, with a little LOFT (I ended up highlighting it earlier because of the sale) and Anthropologie thrown in for good measure.
Please pay special attention to my sah-weet backpack.
the hall from our real dressing rooms, and right after we took the picture we realized we had both locked ourselves out of our dressing
rooms.
one of the sales ladies given our outfits, so we both immediately decided
to crawl under our doors.
I posted this on instagram awhile ago, but I’m not sure it ever made it to the blog.
It’s from the blardigan people.
And it’s a hoodie.
I know.
Click HERE for this little piece of Heaven on Earth.
If you LOVE the Blardigan (and if you have it, I KNOW you love it), then you will ADORE this.
I know this is hard to believe, but this hoodie is actually even softer than our beloved blardigan.
It’s also a little bit thicker. It’s FABULOUS.
#sayitaintso
Fair warning, it’s also more expensive.
And just for fun, I thought I would share the text I received from my friend Andrea on Wednesdsay:
Make sure you read her text! Hilarious!
I know so many of you feel the exact same way!
Andrea made it through the washing and is happily reunited with her
Okay, on to the regular, non-blanket like clothes from Nordstrom. 🙂
Click HERE for a simple striped v-neck.
For size reference, this shirt was a small.
I really liked this top a lot. It’s great for now, but I also think it will be super cute with white jeans in the spring. Make sure you check out the back of the top on the site, and I love how the model has it on with dark grey jeans. So cute!
must have skinny jeans HERE and wedge boots HERE
By the way….got a blog comment this morning about the boots that I thought was worth posting:
btw, true story. Got a mani/pedi yesterday. The nail ladies fell all
over my cognac wedge boots. I mean, went crazy. They had me find it on
the website, take a picture and text them the link so they could buy
them that minute. One of the ladies even tried mine on since we were the
same size. Strange experience but best.boots.ever.
Click HERE for this mixed media striped front sweatshirt.
The one review of this isn’t great, but I thought it was super cute and definitely worth showing. I really liked the fit and the color.

I LOVE IT!
And IT’S 40% OFF!!!!! Making it only $34.80!!!!
It was soooo soft, and the laser cuts make it unique!
It comes in 3 other colors (I love the coral/red) and it would be SO cute with
cuffed jeans and Converse.
Great transition piece for spring!

It comes in 4 other Springy colors and I really like the wide stripe.
It’s also 40% off….making it…..get ready for this…..$23.40!
It’s thin (which makes it awesome for layering) and also comes in grey, lime green, and coral!
For this price I’m thinking 2 is totally warranted!

This is different from anything else I have in my closet right now, and I dig it!

I have some more clothes that I tried on in a minute, but while searching for the above clothes online, I found some other things that I haven’t tried on yet, but that TOTALLY intrigue me!
Has anybody tried these next items on…or even better, do you already own and love them?
Click HERE for a really cool zip up hoodie. Just look at the cute pleated ruffle!

Click HERE for all Vince Camuto items on sale.
Click HERE for all Caslon items on sale.
Click HERE for all Halogen items on sale.
Ok, back to trying things on. I liked this cardi from Free People (whose items I either ADORE or DESPISE). There’s apparently no “Ah. It’s okay.” with Free People. You either LOVE an item or HATE an item.
Free People has some crazy stuff.
But this? This I liked.
Click HERE for super long and light cardigan.
For size reference, this was a small.
Click HERE for this House of Harlow necklace.
There is an entire collection, but this necklace and this ring HERE are my favorites! This jewelry is super on trend, and lots of Hollywood peeps are wearing it!
(bottom necklace Lucky brand from about 5 years ago)
Click HERE for this awesome infinity scarf!
The one I have on is actually a very pale pink. I’m thinking this might be my go to infinity scarf for spring and summer. It’s so light and airy!
And in case you missed it yesterday because it was buried at the bottom of the Bachelor post….

Then I headed to Anthro!
GIRLS.
I’ve turned into A TOTAL SUCKER for Anthropolgy items.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS shirt from the front, but I want to marry the back of it.
Click HERE.
For size reference, this shirt is a medium.
See what I’m talking about concerning the back?
Love it so much!
Click HERE for this top that looks kind of crazy, but I actually loved it!

It’s on sale too!
For size reference, I’m a medium in this top. I loved it with my MUST HAVE jeans and my TOMS booties!
For size reference, this shirt is a medium.
I bought the one above, but I also love this one. Especially for February!
How cute would this be for your kid’s Valentine’s Day party or a casual night out with your guy or girlfriends?!? 🙂
And there’s actually one that is more of a true red! I love both of them! Click HERE.
Almost done, but I have 2 more things to show you that I haven’t had the chance to try on….
BUT I LOVE THEM nontheless.
Click HERE for the ruffled shirts below (lots of colors available)!
I like the grey, cream, green, and copper the best.
This shirt would be so cute with my cuffed MUST HAVE jeans and TOMS booties.
And I’m sooooooo excited about this next item!
Click HERE for this camo military jacket that was regularly $148
and is now on sale for $79.95!
It is one of Anthro’s “Freshly Cut” sale items and I’m imagining it’s going to fly off the shelf.
I’m currently trying to talk myself out of ordering it, but I just know if I don’t it’s going to be one of those things that I think about 3 years from now. Like I’ll be in my closet struggling for something to wear, and then I’ll be all “DANGIT! If I only had that camo jacket from Anthropologie that was the perfect distressed color (a very muted camo), the perfect length, the perfect weight, and had the hidden drawstring to define the waist!” And then I’ll shake my fist in the air and pause for effect.
I’ll wrap it up by saying, ” How in the word did I let that perfect jacket THAT WAS ON SALE pass me by? WHY? WHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYY?”
I didn’t see this in store so I haven’t tried it on, but it has 8/8 near perfect reviews.
That’s enough to convince me.
Here’s just one review:
I never expected to love this jacket as much as I do. I was on the search for the perfect olive green utility jacket (to fill the hole in my heart where my unfortunately cheap and oversized Old Navy Jacket used to live) when I spotted her. The camo really is very muted, and I love the hidden drawstring waist.. it adds a feminine touch to an otherwise masculine piece. I tried it on and was immediately sold by the fit.
I wear this little lady constantly with light colored tunics, my COH rockets, ankle boots and vintage bracelets. She goes with just about everything, and is one of the favorite & most worn members of my closet.
So, that’s it for Shopping with Sheaffer and Shay!
Everybody have a wonderful weekend!
xoxo,
Sheaffer

Mix and Match Mama says
Oh my goodness! Andrea's text CRACKED ME UP! I have packed my blardigan for California! I totally see myself lounging in it at the hotel and then wearing it home on the plane!! I always love shopping with you friend! XOXO
Tab & Erika says
So glad Andrea survived the time away!!!! hahahahaha!!!
Julie Connelly says
Oh. My. Gosh. I absolutely LOVE & WANT pretty much everything you tried on in this post. Now I will be fighting w/ myself all day on whether to buy more shirts or not 😉 HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Jen Pogue says
I'm so happy that you pointed out the backpack that you're wearing in your silly pic with Shay. I think I had the same one in elementary school…for a minute I was a little girl excited about the first day of school! 😉 Fingers crossed that Goodnight Macaroon gets the puffer back in stock today so I can use the coupon code! Happy Friday!
Narci says
Too funny, Andrea!! I am anxiously awaiting my Blardigan's arrival in the mail! And, I had to snag that Printed tuxedo tee from Anthro–so cute!!
slip4 says
So much cuteness! BTW, the infinity scarf link takes you to a shirt/sweater instead.
SarahN says
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who is sad when the blardigan is being washed! Andrea's text cracked me up!!!
When I tried to link to the infinity scarf, a shirt popped up. Does anyone else have this problem or is it my goofy iPad? Anyhow, I'd love to check out that scarf! Thanks!!! TGIF!
(Btw- I live in a place where Old Navy is our coolest store – tomorrow I'm going to get to go to a real live Nordstrom! I can hardly wait!)
Sheaffer says
Hi Sarah and slip4! I fixed the link! Thanks for the heads up ladies!
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
Meagan @ The Clanahan Fam says
So I tried to order the puffer vest yesterday morning and they were already out of my size in the white. So I took it as a sign that it just wasn't meant to be and God was trying to tell me something. Now it's back in stock??? What in the world do I do??? 🙂 btw, true story. Got a mani/pedi yesterday. The nail ladies fell all over my cognac wedge boots. I mean, went crazy. They had me find it on the website, take a picture and text them the link so they could buy them that minute. One of the ladies even tried mine on since we were the same size. Strange experience but best.boots.ever.
Sheaffer says
Hi Meagan! Okay…I'm totally going to add your comment about your boot experience to the post today! Hilarious! I have people comment on them ALL the time too! Yes. BEST. BOOTS. EVER.
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
p.s. If the puffer is in stock. GET IT IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!!! 🙂
Leigh says
I'm loving the Anthro pieces! You've got me daydreaming about the military jacket, too….
Sasa Zoe says
Lots of information. You look great as always<3

April Parrish says
Looks like you ladies had fun shopping!
I absolutely love the ruffled black top from anthropologie. Your outfit with the cuffed jeans, this top and your Tom booties is perfection!
Have a great weekend!
Sara says
Sheaffer, you are totally influencing my eye for fashion! I bought the Free People long grey & white striped cardigan last week. It's super cute and flattering. I just knew it would be something you would like! 🙂
{Hi Sugarplum!} says
All such great stuff!! And you look cute in all of it!
ncmama says
Great stuff Sheaffer! Any chance you're planning on doing another post soon featuring work clothes? I'm a teacher and can sometimes get away with more casual items than most working ladies, but not all the time. I need some help from my go-to fashionista!
ncmama says
Great stuff Sheaffer! Any chance you are going to do another Work It post soon? I'm a teacher and can sometimes get away with more casual items than most ladies, but not always. I need some work clothes advice from my go-to fashionista!
Kim Kauffman says
First of all, that picture of you and Shay just shows how TINY you both are! And second, I love that Anthropologie shirt with the cute back so much. I want every single color! Sadly, I'm plum out of money until next month, and since everything you touch turns to gold, it will probably be out of stock by then 🙂
Amy Kleis says
I totally hear ya on the Free People clothes! You can pick it up and LOVE IT or Leave it! But the stripped cardi, I did get, cuz I LOVED IT! It is super light and super cute and super comfy! Have a great weekend!
This Gingers Journey says
Can we make it a double wedding because I want to marry that shirt too!!!! The back is AUH-MAZING! Ya'lls shopping trips always look like so much fun and I love that you divide and conquer but still meet up for some shenanigans. Oh and just an FYI, Lands End has their puffer vests on super sale! I have never worn theirs before but I went ahead and ordered one this morning. (with a monogram and everything!) Happy Friday!!! 🙂
Sabrina says
Get the jacket. You will regret it later if not. I just know it. Go buy it now.
And I love all of your finds!! Anthropologie is a new fave of mine…and so is Boden ever since Andrea highlighted some pieces on her blog! 🙂
Liz/happymommy says
Andrea's text was SO funny!!! Love that camo military jacket, so cute! And that first pic of you and Shay, hilarious…you two are just so much fun! Wish my bestie lived so close to me, sadly she is a 7 hour drive away 🙁
alison says
First of all I LOVE that you feature Nordstrom so regularly. They are my go to source for clothing, cannot live without that free shipping. Second, you look WAY better in their clothes than their models do! Things I wouldn't look twice at online are must haves once I see you in them. This is seriously my new favorite blog!
Alison @ Get Your Pretty On says
Those Anthro shirts are adorable!!! So cute with jeans.
Maria B says
Just ordered that camo jacket! Thanks for posting!
Anonymous says
What about the pants you girls were wearing in the first photo—the black and white?
Chelsie.Swanson says
I have TWO of the tops that are similar to the Must Have. You posted them before and I started adding stuff to my wishlist on Nordstrom.com and checked the list often. Then I saw that the Two by Vince Camuto
Split Neck Mixed Media Tops were on sale for $14.97 and I got the green one and LOVED it! I couldn't believe that the top went on sale for $14.97 again! So I got the black one! I wore one on Thanksgiving with the Must Have Skinny Jeans and all THREE of my brother-in-laws said I was the trendiest sister and asked me to bring their wives shopping. HA! Thanks PTMT for making me trendy 😉
Kathryn Katz says
I'm pregnant with my third child which means that I started showing… like at 5 weeks. So I'm trying to tell myself that I will still need these must haves after the baby. I just bought 4 of MixandMatchMama's fav shirts from the Gap and have your new must have in my shopping cart. I justified my recent cognac boot and puffer vest because (I'm growing a baby)… and not sure why I haven't bought one yet but I'm buying the blardigan. Thank you for all of your posts!!
