Overall a Good Outfit

September 29, 2017

I’ve owned these overalls for a couple of years now, but only this season have I received several compliments on them. Even one of my closest friends (you know the type – who may roll their eyes at your overalls and say endearingly: “only you can pull these off”), complimented these bibs. And it’s true, I’m seeing gals rocking overalls all over town (and outside of the playground!).

Skinny leg, oversized, cropped, and even shorts – there’s an overall for everyone. In particular, I’m loving them paired with fitted and flirty of-the-moment tops. I’ve been coveting an oversized pair that I saw on a a woman on the street; perfectly worn with a fitted off-the-shoulder top and casual sandals. I should have stopped to ask where she found hers. This outfit was inspired by her look.

And this top?! If this isn’t a throw-back to my youth, I don’t know what is?? I’m pretty sure I owned a lace-burnout fitted shirt like this one back in high school yet (as most things now), this one is just better. So good in fact, I also bought the black! Stay tuned…I have plans for this one with oversized denim and a bomber jacket. It’s also in my suitcase to be worn this weekend with a pair of wide-leg, flowy pants. Fitted but not too much…just right!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: Top Picks

July 13, 2017

The clock has struck midnight and bloggers, die-hard shoppers, and “Nordy girls” alike have begun scrolling feverishly through the Nordstrom site to claim their deals on must-have fall fashion offered at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. It’s only THE shopping event of the year. Sale prices on fresh-finds for the new season – yes, fall merchandise in July. But the prices are the compelling reason to be searching through racks of sweaters and coats during the summer.

This sale is the time of year to refresh both your winter coat and underwear collections. As always, I’m interested in designer denim, cozy knits, and stylish footwear. Occasionally a coat (or two) and this year a dress. Yes, I’ve already shopped in Seattle’s flagship store and below is a sampling of what I have tried and tested to be the very top picks of the sale.

Denim: Because Nordstrom is the destination for designer denim, I’m always curious to see what’s on-trend for the new season. Still lots of uneven and raw hems. And while skinnies still reign supreme, I still love with all of the differing silhouettes like “mom jeans” and cropped flares.

AG Jeans

Outerwear & Knits: I’m always looking to score cozy layers and warm knits for the new season. Especially if it includes a pink fur collar! Note: both of these items made it into my shopping bag.

Derek Lam 10 Crosby

La Vie Rebecca Taylor

Tops: This year continues to be all about the details. From embroidery to ruffles, there are plenty to choose from.

Rails

Halogen

Caslon

Shoes: While fall may be all about the bootie, I was particularly impressed with the selection of fashion sneakers this year. And the love of the mule or slide continues into the new season. Also, look for luxe fabrics like velvet and suede, as well as rich detailing like embroidery or floral prints.

Jeffrey Campbell

Treasure & Bond

Steve Madden

Beauty: Many beauty counters participate in the sale. I’m looking for my favorite brands like Charlotte Tilbury (who offers many color exclusive to the sale) and I seriously stock-up on Supergoop sunscreen.

Super Goop

Ouai

Accessories: Don’t overlook the assortment of sunnies, watches, and fashion jewelry. A favorite always includes Gorjana’s colorful gemstones. Also scope out handbags, in particular, I am loving all of the bright florals and colorful small crossbody bags.

Anniversary Sale: The Remaining Gems

July 22, 2015

If you have been following along the past couple of weeks, you know that I am Lovin’ the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale selection this year. The shopping has been intense – I’ve been there nearly every day shopping with clients and finding the very best pieces to highlight here. While much of the inventory is out-of-stock, there are still a few gems to be found. Remember quantities are very limited and prices go up August 3!

Women

Sam Edelman Zip Back Plaid Shirt

This shirt is so flattering on – I had nearly every single one of my clients try it on! The zip in the back is completely unique and gives the shirt a more fitted look. Size are limited – snap this one up before it’s too late!

Dolce Vita Bootie

The perfect slip-on, flat bootie for fall. Hitting right at the ankle, these pair well with jeans and skirts alike!

Rag & Bone Skinny Jean

The color and cut of these skinny jeans are spot on – just as you would expect from Rag & Bone. Wear this fatigue color as you would a neutral (like grey and black); it pairs well with just about everything in your fall wardrobe.

Rebecca Minkoff Backpack

I have been eying this backpack throughout the spring and summer – I can’t believe the sale price?!

DVF Silk Romper

This romper (yes – it is shorts), is a flirty twist on a DVF classic wrap dress. With the quintessential geometric print, it is classic yet totally on-trend.

Men

AG Slim Straight Jeans

The perfect, dark denim classic, straight jean – I should know, my husband may be my most difficult “client.”

Ted Baker London Zip-Up

This zip-up jacket is so easy to dress up and down. In particular, I love the color-blocking detail on the back.

New Balance 515

You had me at retro sneaker. Worn with shorts now and paired with your favorite denim in the fall, you cannot go wrong with a classic New Balance tennis shoe.

Kids

Tucker + Tate Jeggings

My daughter lives in jeggings. So easy to pull on and so comfy – the pink and purple pattern definitely scored points as well.

Vans Classic Slip-On

I want these for myself (no big shocker there!). Classic Vans at an awesome price.

Patagonia Vest (baby girls)

Such a cute color combination, I’m only sad they didn’t make them in bigger sizes.

Junk Food Star Wars T-Shirt

I couldn’t resist this one – we have some serious Star Wars fans in my family. And graphic tees make back-to-school so much more fun.

I hope you’ve enjoyed my sale selections. Which are you favorite? What did you bring home? I would love your feedback. As always, thanks for reading! ~Jenn
