Trendy Wednesday - Nordstom Anniversary Sale



Have you had a chance to take in the wonders of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?  What is it about this particular event that sends me into a tizzy?  Maybe it's the idea that they have things on pre-sale that makes me feel the need to scoop something up right-now-this-very-second-no-waiting so I don't miss out on something later.  Or maybe it's that incredible surge of excitement I get when I click "Add to Cart."  Or maybe, just maybe it's my philosophy that buying something on sale is a REALLY REALLY great financial habit.  You see, I'm not buying something as much as I am saving our little family money.  Right?!  Do you think this way too?

If you do, then the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is just the place for you!  Here are a few of the things I have on my wish list!
Ugg Australia Belted Cardy Visor Cap
I love hats, and this one looks comfy and warm and dare I say it's cute as a button.

Karen Kane Cowl Neck Top
I think black and charcoal make such a sophisticated combination.  This top is simple and would look great with jeans, but the cowl neck adds a little dressiness that makes it work appropriate too.

Calvin Klein Shoulder Knot Sheath
This dress arrived at my doorstop just the other day, and it is so elegant.  The bow at the sleeve adds a youthful touch.  I think it might be my "first day on the new job" dress.

BCBG Side Zip Leggings
It looks like leggings will remain in this season, and if that's the case, these are a perfect addition to your fall wardrobe.  The zipper detail is fantastic!

Miss Sixty Harper Boot
These boots remind me of legwarmers draped over a pair of tap shoes which makes me happy inside.  I love dance inspired ensembles, so these are right up my alley.


Steve Madden Brushed Wool Snap Toggle Coat
I'm not in the market for a new coat, but this one makes me wish I was!  Plaid is going to be huge this fall, and at a great price, it's a fun way to get into the trend.

Citizens of Humanity 'Morrison' Super Stretch Slim Bootcut Jeans (Dark Poseidon Wash)
I love getting a new pair of nice jeans.  These are to die for.  The darker hue and the seeming detail is very trimming.

Cole Haan Air Georgina Boot
Swoon!  These are gorgeous!  Even on sale they are pricey, but gracious, they're just so darn pretty!

Happy Anniversary Nordstrom.  I'll celebrate to that every year!
