Well, the day has finally arrived.
It’s the last day to shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
It’s the last day to shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
UPDATE 1:00 p.m. (due to technical difficulties):
I decided to add a handy dandy little widget here with what I think
are the VERY BEST DEALS that are still available in the sale.
are the VERY BEST DEALS that are still available in the sale.
So, after 3 weeks of following this sale, we are in the FINAL HOURS!

If there are any items you’ve been on the fence about, it’s time to get off the fence. One way or another, make a decision. Either press purchase, or kiss the items good-bye and be okay with it!
I don’t know about you girls, but I am EXHAUSTED!
Dang! Marathon shopping really takes it out of a person. 😉
The sale this year was AWESOME, I got tons of great items at a DEEP discount, but man was it exhausting! I had a last minute panic and place another small order last night, but I can say that I’m now officially done, and that feels good!
I’m very happy with all I got, I feel like a made good decisions, and I have a good solid base of items to start fall with!
Yay me. 😉
Thank y’all so much for following along and shopping along side me during the last several weeks.
For those of you that like me wanted to make one last go round, I am highlighting things today that are still available.
.
Click HERE for the top.
The grey is sold out, and the oxblood almost is too, but there seems to be plenty of stock in the navy! I think it would look awesome with regular ol’ denim, grey jeans, and black jeans!
For size reference, I’m wearing an x-small.
During Sale Price: $58.90/ After Sale Price: $88
Seriously, check out the back on this baby!!!!!
LOVE!

I’m not typically a heel person, but these spoke to me.
They said, “You don’t need us…but look how pretty we are.“
If you ARE a heel person, I’m pretty sure they are saying “Make me your mommy.”
They are totally sexy, but they are very comfy and not too high at all (2 1/2 inches)!
And the heel kind of looks like it’s croc.
Click HERE for the heels.
I wear a 6 or a 6 1/2 depending on the shoe, and the 6s were perfect for me.
During Sale Price: $ 89.90 / After Sale Price: $129.95
Okay, y’all.
This next picture has SEVERAL favorites in it.
And one of the favorites really surprised me.
When looking online yesterday morning after the sale went live, THIS vest caught my eye.
So I wanted to find it when I went back to the mall yesterday and see what I thought in person.
Well, LOVE.
Insulated Vest HERE.
During Sale Price: $72.90 / After Sale Price: $109
I absolutely adore the puffy collar that conceals a hood.
I agree with the sizing recommendation to order a size up. I’m wearing a medium.
Other items in the picture are THESE ZELLA LIVE IN LEGGINGS (YES!) and THIS NIKE PULLOVER, also both part of the sale.
When I was at Stonebriar yesterday the Zella stuff was flying off the shelves. Click HERE for all Zella for women that’s included in the sale! And I got several messages yesterday from readers telling me I needed to try THIS ruffle back jacket from Zella because it’s so flattering (make sure you size one size up).
During Sale Price: $96.90 / After Sale Price: $130
Are these comfy?
Well, they are from UGG.
Nuff’ said.
They are VERY comfortable, and they have lots of great detail.
It says they run small, but I didn’t find that to be the case.
I’m sometimes a 6, but more often a 6 1/2, and the 6 1/2s were perfect for me!
I like these with jeans, but they would be FABULOUS with skirts and dresses.
Click HERE for these boots.
During the Sale: $199.90 / After the Sale: $299.95
And if you’ve been following the blog for awhile, you should remember THESE fringe scarves.
They are $12.90.
And they make perfect gifts.
And that’s all I have to say about that.
Click HERE.
I am LOVING this new designer that Nordstrom just started carrying.
This picture does not do their sparkliness (it’s a word) justice!
These pieces are all very delicate and sweet. And seriously sparkly. So SO pretty!
Find all of her jewelry HERE.
These are the Kendra Scott Rayne necklaces available in the sale.
You can find all of the Kendra jewelry HERE.
The left 2 are silver, the middle one is gunmetal, and the right 2 are gold.
I got the turquoise and gunmetal.
I feel it goes with everything.
Need proof, see what all I paired it with in yesterday’s post HERE.
Another TOP PRIORITY item that is going to sell out quickly:
There are still pink and turquoise available!!!
Click HERE for the studs.
During Sale Price: $24.90 / After Sale Price: $38
They come in these great little boxes, which are of course awesome for gift giving!
And I have a sneaking suspicion people are going to be buying these babies in bulk for gifts.
At such an amazing price of under $25, I’m thinking they will be gone after the first several days of the sale.
If it’s not a blardigan Christmas, maybe it’s a GLITTER STUD Christmas!
Again, click HERE for the earrings.
I like the front of this years shirt even better than last years, but you need to know that it’s quite a bit longer in the back. Like almost weird long. I ended up going home and ordering a petite and liked the petite on me so much more (I’m 5’4″).
Click HERE for the shirt.
Again, I only recommend black because the other colors show too many wrinkles.
You for sure need to size down in this shirt. For size reference, I’m wearing an x-small petite.
During Sale Price: $37.90 / After Sale Price: $58
How cute is this next outfit going to be come fall?!?
I’m not going to lie, these pants make me feel SASSY.
I think the details are great, and they are super flattering.
multi-strand necklace (I got the olive.) /
And now for a close up of the moto jeans.
Aren’t they cool?
During Sale Price: $79.90 / After Sale Price: $118
For size reference, I’m wearing a 27, which is true to size for me.
Now…this might get confusing….
Their size chart says the 27s are a 6. I’m not a 6, I’m typically a 4. So, I ordered the 26s (since they say they are a 4) at first, but I found them way too tight.
If I were you, I would order based on the inches, not the size equivalent. Hope that makes sense!
Also, I’m 5’4″ and these are a perfect length on me…not sure if they will be good for tall girls.
This next outfit has this awesome faux leather jacket!
I recommend the patterned blouse instead because it doesn’t show wrinkles at all, and I can’t say that about the solid colors. I do suggest ordering down a size in the blouse (both solid and patterns). I’m wearing a regular x-small.
THIS BLOUSE IS GREATNESS, and I think those with office jobs will find it especially versatile! I love my pink and grey, but it comes in 2 other colors as well!
For size reference, I’m wearing a small in the blouse, so I would say it’s true to size. I’m wearing a medium in the cami, so I would suggest sizing up 1 size.
When she picked it out in the store, I didn’t love it.
I thought it was a little too Brawny paper towel guy.
HOWEVER.
When she tried it on, I died.
IT. HAS. POCKETS.
I know.
I died.
Penny died.
We all died.
flannel shirt WITH POCKETS / jeans (not in the sale, but AWESOME!)
During Sale Price of shirt: $49.90 / After Sale Price: $78
And I’m wondering now if it would be long enough to wear with leggings?
#ibreakforpockets
How great does she look in this outfit?!?
Everything about it is flattering!
The colorblock and the close fit of the sweater along with the wide waistband of the pants all work together to really define her waistline!
I mean y’all, she walked out of the dressing room with the biggest grin on her face and exclaimed “Look! I’m skinny!”
She looked and felt amazing in this outfit!!!!!
Sweater During Sale Price: $58.90 / After Sale Price: $88
Pants During Sale Price: 48.90 / After Sale Price: $74
Remember Elizabeth? A reader’s mom that Penny and I met while shopping?
She was wearing the Michael Kors trench that Penny had tried on (and I had tried on), and we all loved it!
Look how darling Elizabeth is!
And get this, I was struggling with the belt on the coat, and I looked at Elizabeth and saw how she had hers just knotted up and it looked perfect!
Elizabeth was so wise. 🙂
If you don’t have them, remedy that now.
For size reference, I have a SMALL in these leggings but only wear them with tall boots (b/c they are way too long for me to wear with flats).
I have the black and the grey, and I know many of you have the espresso also!
I’ve had them for over 2 years now, and they still look AWESOME. Especially the grey ones. I would say that the black have faded a bit, but I’ve washed them soooooo much. And I don’t hand wash them. I just throw them in the washer and dryer with everything else!
They don’t sag, they wash perfectly, and they suck you in without making it difficult to breathe.

boots sold out, but there is another pair of over the knee boots in the sale
This top is very sheer, so you will definitely have to wear a cami under it. I love it with jeans, but it would also be great for the office with THESE black pants (in the sale with great reviews!).
During Sale Price of blouse: $65.90 / After Sale Price: $99
For size reference, I’m wearing a small (so it’s true to size).
This next picture is prompting me to talk about MY FAVORITE EARRINGS.
Yes, AGAIN.
Because I couldn’t love a pair of earrings more.
Yes, they are kind of expensive for what I usually pay for earrings, but they are worth every penny.
floral embroidered sweater / earrings / similar jeans with great reviews / booties (size up a 1/2 size)
For size reference, I’m wearing an x-small in the sweater, so I suggest sizing down.
During Sale Price: $58.90 / After Sale Price: $88
This might look like a sweatshirt, but it’s definitely a sweater, and it’s crazy soft.
I really like this tunic with jeans.
Even though it’s long enough to appropriately cover your crotchal region ;), due to the slits on the sides (see online picture) I’m not sure it would work well with leggings.
It might be a little too revealing of an upper thigh.
similar jeans with great reviews / booties (size up a 1/2 size)
During Sale Price: $49.90 / After Sale Price: $98
For size reference I’m wearing an x-small, so I would suggest sizing down.
And fyi, I don’t think I’ve made a big enough deal out of the fact that MY FAVORITE EARRINGS are in the sale!
And look at this sweater coat on Tana!
How cute is she?!?
During Sale Price $98.90 / After Sale Price: $148
Tara says she loves it and that it’s so soft and cozy!
Next up, a great little dress!
I’m showing it here both as a tunic (with jeans) and a dress (just with bare legs and booties).
And you won’t believe the price.
During the sale it’s ONLY $38.90!!!!!
For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
Many of you asked for jacket options, so I tried on several leather jackets!
#iamtoplease
I thought THIS one was great.
For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
I loved the mixed media (it’s leather and suede), it’s a great cut, and it has a lot of style!
During Sale Price: $219.90 / After Sale Price: $328
I also got requests for scarves!
I loved THIS one!
During Sale Price: $29.90 / After Sale Price: $48
THIS Cole Haan snake print crossbody is awesome.
I mean, how cute would it be with everything you are wearing this fall??!!?? 🙂
During Sale Price: $145.90 / After Sale Price: $218
Click HERE for the bag.
Love THIS leopard coat!
I’m wearing an x-small, so I would definitely suggest sizing down.
During Sale Price: $99.90 / After Sale Price: $150
Long cardis and ponchos are ALL OVER the place this year.
Here are some to check out that are all very inexpensive right now!
ALL SHOWN ARE UNDER $40! The middle one is the one that looked like Kaitlyn’s cardi from Monday’s Bachelorette episode. Please note that I’m wearing a small in the middle cardi. I couldn’t even get my arms through the sleeves in the x-small!
The ones on the left and right are very thin, and the middle one is quite a bit thicker.
My UGG boots from last year were one of my very favorite purchases last year. I wore them constantly. Out doing errands…to dinner…to the mall….running Carter to school….even just around the house when my feet were really cold! I ADORE them.
And here’s the deal, I think I like these even better!
The lace up back is too cute!
Click HERE for the boots.
During Sale: $129.90 / After Sale: $184.95
And here’s another great long cardi I tried on!
The cardi is soft, it’s a great length, and I feel like it could be the blardigan’s cousin.
It’s VERY BLARDIGAN-ish!
For size reference, I’m wearing a small….but I tried on an x-small afterwards, and I liked the fit of it even better. Just a personal preference.
I’m wearing a medium in the cami, so size up.
