Nordstrom Cardholder Perks: Triple Point Rewards

September 21, 2016

_129486691File this post under the “Shopping Wisdom” tab.  As a Nordstrom cardholder (and there are several options available: retail, debit, and visa), the most significant perk is that you earn Nordstrom “notes” or money towards future purchases.  Ordinarily you accumulate one point for every dollar that you spend; receiving a $20 note for every 2,000 points.  However, there are several shopping events throughout the year where you can earn bonus points.  September 21-25 is one such event, when you get triple points on every purchase you make with your Nordstrom card at Nordstrom, The Rack, and on HauteLook.  Basically Nordstrom is paying you to shop in their store!

In anticipation of triple reward days, I have been storing my most lusted after items in my “wish list” – waiting to purchase during this event so that I can get more money back (I plan to apply the notes I earn towards my Christmas list – see, I’m thinking of others!).  I’ve shared this trick in the past: I “wish list” items online and revisit to check if they have gone on sale and confirm that it is something that I still “must have.”  Then, during these types of events, I simply move the items that are on the top of the list into my shopping cart and I’m done.  New clothes, accessories, and make-up refresh on the way to my home and new notes for the bank!

Curious what’s on my wish list?  See below.

Anniversary Sale: My Shopping Cart

July 17, 2016

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale StyleCurious what went home with me from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?  As you may imagine, my closet is pretty well stocked, so I use this sale as an opportunity to buy pieces that I wouldn’t ordinarily pay full-price for (but lust after year-round).  Therefore, I’m looking for unique and quality pieces that will augment my existing fall wardrobe (remember, the Anniversary Sale is new fall styles?!)  This entire look is styled with pieces I scored from THE sale of the year.

Anniversary Sale Saddle Bag

Anniversary Sale James Perse Dress

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Rebecca Minkoff Purse

And a bodycon dress?? I guess it’s a slippery slope (you can see my first one here).  However, you don’t have to reserve such a dress for after-hours, although it can easily be paired with heels for a date night look.  Instead, I’m adding a utility jacket and donning sneakers.  Especially given that this dress is a versatile cotton jersey knit, it’s easy to wear as a casual daytime ensemble with the right accessories.

Have you shopped the Anniversary Sale?  What are you waiting for? The sale opens to the general public this Friday, July 22nd (current “Early Access” is reserved for Nordstrom cardholders).  Inventory is selling out fast and prices go up August 8th, so don’t wait!

Like what you see?  Shop thru my blog; you get great styling advice and sale picks and I receive a small commission from your purchase.  See, shopping is good for both of us?!  Thank you. ~Jenn

Friday Favorites: Flannel Fashion

September 25, 2015

_11125200(1)

Hopefully you have been following all week as Kirsty and I have had fun styling plaid flannel shirts in some classic and some unexpected ways.  To finish out our week of fall flannel, Friday Favorites is featuring…you guessed it, more plaid!  But don’t be lured into thinking that this is as simple as a classic button-down shirt.  Below you will find several of those; in addition to awesome outerwear, cozy over-sized scarfs, and lady-like skirts all constructed in soft material and lots of checks!

Outfits: Grey Dress Triad

October 21, 2014

This is a story of three friends who trade texts and photos with outfit ideas, dinner plans, and parenting struggles.  And, these three friends also share a common love for a grey jersey dress.

Now, mind you, we don’t share the dress – we each have our own dress.  And we each have very unique styles, which makes this post all the more fun! Keep reading to learn how each woman has styled her dress based on her own aesthetic and fashion favorites.

4way gray dress 4
Kirsty
Personal style: eclectic, boho, comfortable
Fashion favorites: lace, slouchy necklines, great shoes, mixed metals, vintage jewelry, toe cleavage, hats, red lipstick, and big hair
Fashion rules to live by: “I love the juxtaposition in personal style: fancy & laid-back, edgy & girly, moto with lace. These contrasts are what create your own look.”

Kirsty pairs her ruched dress with a contrasting tough-gal, moto vest with varying textures; adding interest and making her look unique.  Just when you might expect a moto bootie, Kirsty then adds a lace-up pump – a perfect combination of sweet and tough.  To top off her neutral outfit, she adds just a hint of color with her aqua earrings…her personal design. And don’t forget the red lip!

Vest: Zara (similar, similar)
Heels: Sam Edelman
Earrings: Lucia K (Kirsty’s jewelry)
Lips: MAC Kiss Me Quick

P1090601
Jacqueline
Personal style: classic, preppy with an eye towards current trends
Fashion favorites: stripes, navy, patent leather, skinny jeans, pattern-mixing, all things nautical
Fashion rules to live by: “An updated purse or shoe can make any staple piece look current.”

True to her personal style, Jacqueline adds a little edge to her otherwise lady-like ensemble.  The structured bag has studs and the peep-toe booties are a fun trend to try instead of a tried-and-true pump.  Finally, she then adds a twist to a classic navy jacket and scarf combo with a leather moto-style jacket, and a leopard and skull patterned scarf.

Jacket: GAP, last year (similar, similar)
Booties: Halogen
Purse: Rebecca Minkoff
Scarf: Alexander McQueen

P1090675
Jenn
Personal style: edgy, sophisticated yet casual
Fashion favorites: denim, suede, zipper detailing, leopard, studs, leather accents, layered accessories, black and grey, texture
Fashion rules to live by: “When it comes to accessorizing, the more the better! Accessories make an outfit unique and bring a look together.”

In an effort to create a casual look, Jenn pairs her jersey dress with wedge sneakers, a plaid flannel shirt, and a baseball hat.  To keep the ensemble from being too sloppy, she then adds a structured, mini cross-body bag and layered, delicate necklaces.  This look says she’s ready to tailgate…in style.

Shirt: Treasure & Bond (similar)
Hat: Madewell
Purse: Milly
Sneakers: Splendid
Glasses: MICHAEL Michael Kors
Necklaces: Nordstrom

Each day I’ve intended to post here. I greeted t Each day I’ve intended to post here. I greeted the new year feeling inspired with a renewed intention for my account; to share with you the goodies I love, wear, try. Unfiltered and honest. That’s what I’m here for. But then...2021 arrived feeling much like her older sister, 2020. Instead, I’ve avoided a lot of social media; choosing to tune into various news outlets and into my family. So, HERE WE ARE. A post proving that I got dressed yesterday, wearing some of my new favorites (these @flamingosshoes white boots!) and steady stand-bys (year 2 wearing this @notmondaymercantile beanie on repeat). I took the kids out after school to run a couple of errands and connect with a business I love to support; we made plans for a spring share. Man, it felt good to get out! And now, I’m posting early before I’ve read the morning news. So, it’s happened.

Please stay safe, remain respectful, and true to yourself. Social media is a beautiful way to connect, create, and inspire...but can also be a dangerous rabbit hole of misinformation and an opportunity for people to behave in a way they ordinarily wouldn’t in person. Off my soap box. Have a lovely Friday!#wordsfrommyheart #realoutfitgram #flamingosshoes #whiteboots #notmondaymoments
Happy New Year my dear friends! I’ve missed you Happy New Year my dear friends! I’ve missed you all but enjoyed a nice long break. Heading back home after some snow time and I’m feeling re-energized (for now). Isn’t it funny how a change in the calendar can make you feel different? Are you a “new year, new you” kinda gal or more indifferent? I do like a good reset. Even though we’ll be doing more of the same early this year, I’m feeling more optimistic. For now. Cheers to 2021!

Also, posted in stories a nearly identical photo of us from last January at the top of @schweitzer_mountain. While the photos look the same, it’s fun to think that we now are Sandpoint homeowners! A positive outcome of 2020. #newyearonthemountain #snowbest #schweitzermountain #skifamily
Snow plus a Christmas sweater...I’m checking all Snow plus a Christmas sweater...I’m checking all the boxes this year. Thinking of everyone not able to spend time with loved ones this year. I’m so grateful for our little family but really missing my parents, siblings, nieces and nephews, my in-laws.  Over a year seems far too long to be apart; but we all need to continue to be safe. It matters. #christmassweater #christmas2020 #staysafestayhome #vintagesweater
Let’s make merry! Although holiday traditions ma Let’s make merry! Although holiday traditions may look different this year; we have an opportunity to get creative and share in new experiences. Like the new-to-me homemade marshmallow recipe, @thekirstyfiles and I have the pleasure of bringing to you in partnership with @pacific_place. We encourage you to invite a few pals to a zoom date, pop a bottle of bubbly, and create these delicious confections together. I promise they’re relatively fool proof (I pulled them off!) AND a sugar-high afternoon spent with friends (even virtually) will be sure to get you in the holiday spirit! Tune in to Pacific Place’s IGTV or YouTube to see the full tutorial, including my gaff when my marshmallow began moving into the “hard ball” territory (note: this recipe does require a candy thermometer and the ability to read it!). Cheers to making the most out of holiday 2020! #homemademarshmallows #pacificplaceseattle #craftingtogether
Ooooh...how I love a good shopping day with a frie Ooooh...how I love a good shopping day with a friend. The belly laughs, chit chat, and groans (as we tried on a number of jeans) provided the escape from reality that I needed. Sometimes you don’t realize just how much you miss something until you get to enjoy it again!
.
.
Other things I love? Soft luxury cashmere, designer denim that fits like a glove, and packable hats (yes, packable!). All can be found @willaseattle; a small, women-owned boutique located in the heart of the Queen Anne neighborhood in Seattle. Be sure to check out our stories as @thekirstyfiles and I share holiday-perfect gifts for your sister, mother, girlfriends...yourself! Lucky for Kirsty and I, our husbands also know the lovely owner, Liz (and she has our wishlists on file)! 
.

Also very near and dear to my heart, Willa is the epitome of shopping local. The shelves are stocked with unique, small business designs; including many Seattle businesses. When you shop local, you not only support your community but also curate a look all your own!

Continued chronicles of dressing stylishly for you Continued chronicles of dressing stylishly for yourself, aka #stayathomestyle. Sure, 2020 may be the year of the sweatpant (combined with a sleeping bag-like coat, as seen here). And yes, a mask chain is this year’s hottest accessory. BUT I still take care to actually get dressed each day. And while lipstick may no longer be a part of my daily routine (I mean, was it ever??), it’s still important to be pulled together..if only for my own mental health. And even if no one else sees it but the grocery clerk. #whatmamaworemonday #sweatpantsseason

On the eve of Black Friday sales bonanza, I hope t On the eve of Black Friday sales bonanza, I hope to inspire, remind, urge, and even beg you to ignore all of the crazy cyber sales that have been creeping into your inbox for the past week and instead SHOP SMALL this holiday season. Yes, perhaps it’s less convenient and even less of a “deal” but this pandemic is putting an even greater strain on the small and local businesses that are the absolute life blood of our communities. And, in addition to supporting an entrepreneur and neighbor, you’ll likely find more creative, individual, and unique gifts for your loved ones by shopping a small business.
