To get myself ready for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale this year I decided that I was going to be very intentional about what I purchase. The past few years I've gone a little overboard when it comes to the biggest sale of the year. I ended up with so many great things, but honestly it was way more than I needed and my closet still was left with a few holes. So this year I'm taking a different approach to shopping in general and really focusing on intentionally buying the right things and not just buying because something is cute, looks good on me, and is on sale. To know exactly what I need to shop for, I've purged my closet trying on clothes I haven't worn in months (thanks Covid-19), if not years, and deciding if I truly love how it looks on me, checking for any imperfections likes snags or stains that would stop me from ...

How to Dominate the 2020 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
Alrighty, this is not my first rodeo! I have been shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale for the past few years and feel like I have a pretty good handle on things, including best practices for shopping the highly anticipated 2020 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. This year is the first and probably only year where shopping in store is not even going to be an option depending on where you live in the country. Our indoor malls have shut down again in most areas of California. I believe some Nordstrom's are still doing curbside pick up ... Read more...
Date Night Style: Faux Leather Pants
I haven't worn faux leather pants in YEARS! My first pair was from the Gap, way back when I was still a high school student. The closest I came to faux leather pants was a pair of paperbag waist faux leather shorts I bought for NYFW a few years ago and my faux leather mini skirt that I am obsessed with!! I bought these pants pre-quarantine and got them just in time for our family trip to Disneyland. I did get to wear them on that trip, but they've been sitting patiently in my closet ever since. I decided to wear them the other night ... Read more...
Smocked bodycon dress + One Day Sale!
I had my sights set on snagging this smocked bodycon dress as soon as I saw the preview for it. The multi-color floral print and ruffle details at each of the sections is beyond darling. Not to mention the ruffle hem and tie straps. Pretty much everything about this dress was calling my name. It was a limited quantity drop from Target for their summer designer dress collaboration. I know I've shared a number of the dresses I scooped up during the release and since purchasing them back in June, I have been taking any excuse to dress up ... Read more...
Dip Dyed Top and Mom Jeans
I feel like it's been a while since I've shared a casual mom uniform with you and so today I wanted to share this look which has been on repeat since I bought this dip dyed top and mom jeans. They're both too good not to keep sharing over and over again! While the color of my top has been sold out, there are new color options that are super good. I'm loving the Rosewood ombrรฉ as well as the Sea Blue ombrรฉ. But honestly all the colors are great! I did want to mention that while the dip dyed top is long sleeve the material is light ...

Since this is where my focus has been the past few months, I figured I ... Read more...
