One more bit of housekeeping.
I’ve started a new feature……if you go to the tabs at the top of my blog and click on “SHOP WITH ME“, I now have many of my very favorite items featured there. They all link you directly to the site where to find them, and I will be adding new favorites all the time!
There is also a feature where you can pin directly from that page. SO FUN!
Click HERE to see it.
On to the post…
Today I am highlighting lots of fabulous products….
some I own and you have seen many times before….some I just got….and some I am about to own! :)(Because let’s be honest, if I don’t own it yet….it’s just a matter of time.) Ha!
***************************************************************
**********************************************************
I immediately started searching for them, and of course I found them at Nordstrom!
I have linked to some of my favorites:
Click HERE for the basic model. I think THESE are great and would be so cute with shorts and a basic t-shirt. There is a plain wedge HERE, but currently there aren’t many sizes left. There is also a bit spiffier of a wedge HERE. This one is my favorite. I like the colors and the fact that it has a little bit of a wedge to give me a little bit of height.
And listen. Sanuks aren’t just for us ladies.They have a men’s line too that includes both flip flops and shoes! Although Sanuk claims that they are not shoes. Here’s what they say: They’re not shoes. (They’re Sandals.) Unlike stiff shoes our patented sandal construction allows your feet to bend and flex the way nature intended. Walking with this natural motion strengthens your feet, enhancing both your balance and your performance. It’s like yoga….for your feet!
Check out all of the male celebrities wearing them!
I will be talking about these again on my Father’s Day post that is coming soon, but I thought I would go ahead and throw it out there now in case you wanted to get a head start. Wouldn’t these be a great Dad’s day gift? Tell me what dad wouldn’t want to get THIS pair of beer cozy flip flops. Or HERE is another pair of flip flops that I think look super cool. Love the neutral color and the frayed look. Or if you are more interested in the shoes sandals in the celebrity collage above for your man, here are some options:
I think THESE (looks like a boat shoe to me) and THESE (love the laces on this pair) are both awesome. My man is definitely going to be getting a pair of Sanuks.
They also have them in kid’s sizes! Click HERE to see them for the entire family.

I mentioned this earlier this week, but my beloved military jacket is now 40% off!
TOTAL SCORE you guys. They are sold out of the green, and they only have 2 sizes left in the khaki. Click HERE. Don’t have your size? Click HERE for all of the military jackets on sale.

I’ve never talked about undergarments on the blog before, but that’s going to end today.
You’re welcome. I was actually on the hunt last week for a really great shape-wear tank. I had ordered one that I thought I was going to love, but it didn’t live up to my expectations. So, I returned it hoping to try some others on and find one that I did love. Sadly, I didn’t find any true shape-wear that worked for me, but I did find two other things that I think soooooooo many of you will be interested in.
1) THIS bra.
Have you ladies ever owned a really nice bra? I never have….UNTIL NOW! The most I have ever spent on a bra has probably been about $35, and that was either at VS or GAP. Well, THIS bra was 40% off , so I totally splurged and bought it. It’s the most expensive bra I’ve ever owned. (Regularly $70, on sale for $42.) It’s also the most comfortable bra I’ve ever owned.
And the most well crafted. Not to mention the most life changing. Not even kidding.
This bra really is a game changer. I’m guessing that maybe all really nice bras are potentially game changers?!? Is it weird that I have so much love for this bra?
#causeidolovethisbra
It’s Natori, and I tell you something, I don’t think I will ever buy a non-Natori bra again. If you don’t like THIS one, click HERE for ALL of the bras on sale. There are lots of great bras between 40-50% off right now! So, you can get a REALLY nice bra for a really great deal. As much as I love this bra, I still can’t see me ever paying $70 for a bra…so I guess I will just watch the sales! $42 is do-able! And I know this sounds weird, but if you don’t have one, you should totally treat yourself to one. Your boobies will thank you. Heck, your boobies will thank me.
2)THIS spaghetti strap camisole, and THIS sleeveless tank.
Both are made by Shimera and both are FLIPPING AWESOME. They aren’t shapewear, they are just tanks, but they still give some of the coverage (and a tiny bit of the tightening) that I was looking for. You know, just the right amount of coverage…a tiny little bit of control over my tummy region, but I can still breathe and don’t get stuck trying to take it on and off. I happen to be a fan of the whole breathing thing. I got two of the spaghetti strap tanks (one white and one nude).
The reviews are phenomenal (and there are 164 of them!).
While reading through them, THIS one was my favorite. You HAVE to read this review.
I purchased two of these camis several months ago and I just went online and ordered four more. They are long enough for me (I’m 5’9″), wash beautifully in the machine, and hold their color and shape even with multiple launderings. The price point is worthy of stocking up and I adore all the colors available. I even wore this cami to my belly dancing class yesterday and it stayed down without having to constantly tug on it. Once again Nordstrom comes through!
PEOPLE! SHE EVEN WORE IT TO HER BELLY DANCING CLASS AND IT STAYED DOWN!
Now THAT is a testimonial!
Here is another review:
Bought 2 and immediately ordered 2 more. They are so soft, smooth and comfy but still help hold everything in! They are a little long but being tall, I like that. The best thing about this tank is that it stays in place, over or under any other garment-where you position it is where it stays. Love them!
Would it be excessive if I ordered like 14 other colors? EVERYBODY NEEDS AT LEAST TWO OF THESE WARDROBE STAPLES. Shimera has tons of great products. I’m totally going to be trying their underwear next.

I have so much to say!
1. I am buying those yogurt bars TODAY!
2. The picture of the people wearing the yoga flip flops made me laugh out loud! So funny!
3. Why didn't you pose in a bra? I totally think you could have rocked the bra on your site. I'm demanding you take some bra photos for us :).
4. Are you wearing that shirt I want in the Hunter Boot picture? I love it so much. I might steal it from you. That wasn't a joke.

I have to tell you that I finally bought a silver MK watch that I've wanted for almost 2 years! I'd forgotten about the Nordstrom sale until you reminded us yesterday. I went there & the watch I've been wanting was on sale! I can't wait to get it in the mail!!!
Melissa Chapman says
So I bought the putty wedges last spring – I love them!! So comfy, just wore them to DC and walked everywhere in them!! And of course I'm a sucker for a good deal, so I'm thinking about getting them in yellow…think I'd be able to wear them with more than I think I could?? I don't normally buy fun colored shoes cause I never know what to wear with them 🙂

I have worn Sanuk flip flops for about five years now and LOVE them! Between them and North Face, I can't put my feet into any other flip flops! My only warning about them is if you're out in the sun where it's really hot, keep them in the shade because they soak up the heat and can feel pretty mushy, almost melted if they've had too much sun time.
Heather Donaldson Herwig says
I bought "the" wedges in putty. Came in the mail on Wednesday. Love them!
Elizabeth says
Funny you mention Natori, because I have been wanting to check out this bra for a while: http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/natori-zen-134020-contour-cami-bra/3058142?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&contextualcategoryid=0&fashionColor=SANDSTONE&resultback=1534&cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-searchresults-_-1_5_C
I thought it would be perfect for low cut shirts or even dresses, but I think I need to try it on first. If anyone has tried this one, let me know!
Betsey Gabela says
Your tootsies will LOVE Sanuk flops! I was introduced to these several years ago when a family member gave a pair to my then 4 year old son for his birthday…..I finally gave up that battle of convincing him to wear anything other than his "soft" flip flops that summer. We have purchased new ones every year and now the whole family owns at least one pair!
aprilparrish says
Those frozen yogurt bars look delicious, can't wait to try them!
Love the new bra! I also normally do not spend a lot on undergarments, but may have to change that. Love the tanks also!!! Have a great Memorial Day Weekend!
aprilparrish says
Almost forgot- Love your jeans paired with your Hunter Rain Boots. May I ask what brand are they? Look like Miss Me??? Which is one of my obsessions!!!! They look great regardless! 🙂
Alison @ Get Your Pretty On says
Sanuk flip flops are THE BEST! I'm picking up some of those Yoplait bars this afternoon with my groceries, thank you very much.
Amy says
Why am I so not surprised that Matthew McConaughey wears yoga mat/beer coozie flip flops?
Elizabeth says
I decided that I have to plan better for the next sale so I was tweeting with Nordstrom and they said the next one is in July, here are the details: http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/anniversary-sale?origin=keywordheaders
That gives me plenty of time to save and figure out what is on my wish list.
I also went back and bought the military jacket in the Rose color. Thanks for all of your great picks!!
kim harrigan says
Went and got the Sanuk flip flops today haven't left my feet since I got home. Love them.
Jenna {Real Simple Girl} says
First of all, I've got to try those Yoplait frozen yogurt bars! Have you only tried the caramel honey flavor, or any others, too?
I love that there are so many great sales happening this weekend! I need to do some last minute shopping for my vacation next week, and I desperately need some short-sleeved basic tees and tanks to wear with shorts!
One more thing… can you tell me where your red top that you're wearing with the blazer is from? And where the pink top is from that you have on with your Hunter boots? LOVE both of those!! Have a great Memorial Day weekend!
Polly M. Bell says
Really loving your blog! Great post!
Team Seghs says
How have we never talked about my sanuks? they are my replacement for TOMS since I just can't CANT wear them as cute and charitable as TOMS are (and you know why). Dave wears sanuks and we call them his "dad shoes" and i tell ya when he wears those I think he looks extra yummy.
And I think I THINK I may FINALLY pull the trigger on my oatmeal blazer now…and lastly– EVERY TIME IT RAINS NOW I THINK OF HOW CUTE YOU MUST LOOK SPORTING YOUR CUTE HUNTERS : )

Hi Scheaffer! This is a great post. I absolutely love the Nordstrom military jacket. I would buy it but it is sold out in my size. Anyway, because of this post I've been searching for a military jacket that is similar to yours.
I am a petitte girl and came across this boys jacket:

I purchased a XL in the store and it fits great 😉

It is sad how fast I can order something that you recommend – Nordstrom has all of my info saved so I seriously think it took about 6 seconds to order those Sanuks – can't wait to try them!
You look AMAZING lately, whatever you are doing keep it up – you look awesome – so freaking skinny!!!
BonBon Rose Girls Kristin says
I can't get enough of Greek yogurt. Must try those!
