My Nordstrom Sale Finds

Happy Hump Day Ladies!

My amazing grandmother would have been 93 today...she was truly such an amazing woman, and every day I miss her!  I know she is up in heaven having one hell of a party today!


Happy Birthday Granny!!!


So, hopefully y'all have scored a few things from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!  I was super excited about this sale, and if I am being honest, I was definitely disappointed this year with the inventory, or lack there of!  The one thing I was really wanting to purchase was the Barefoot Dreams bathrobe, so I jumped online first thing in the morning, the day the sale opened up to cardholders, placed my order....and well it has been about two weeks and I still don't have it...and I don't think I will get it.  I was immediately notified it was on backorder...how does that even happen so quick..lol?  It was supposed the ship last week, then they told me July 30, now they are telling me...they don't know.  I really wanted this bathrobe, and I am slowly coming to terms with the fact that I just may not get it!  Other than the bathrobe, there was only one other thing I had really wanted that wasn't available.

I have received everything I ordered, and decided to keep it all...I really loved it all!

I was unsure about these earrings at first, but after having them I am really starting to love them!  Thank you to my friend Heather for encouraging me to give them a chance:)  These are at such a great price, and they would make awesome holiday gifts!


I had originally wanted these little gold Kendra Scott earrings in the larger size and when I went to order them they were unavailable, so I went with the smaller version....and I LOVE LOVE LOVE them!  They are a great size and super lightweight...sadly they are no longer available either.  I am so glad I snagged them!


It's no secret that I am all about comfort!  These pajamas are fabulous.  I ordered a pair last year from the sale and still wear them all the time...and these are just as awesome!  They are still a bit pricey, even on sale, for pajamas, but they really do hold up well and are super soft!  These leggings are pretty much sold out in this pattern, but you can't go wrong with any of the zella leggings...especially when they are on sale!


I was really disappointed that these Lucky booties were not restocked.  They seemed to have sold out super quick!  I got mine in the brindle color and they are perfect! I read all the reviews and most people said they were TTS...I found they ran a little on the larger size.  I normally wear an 8, so that is what I ordered, but I am thinking I could have gotten these in a 7.5.  I am going to keep them and make them work because they really are so cute!  And this dress...this little striped dress for under $25...why why why didn't I order like 3 of these!  I ordered my normal size, medium, and it is definitely roomy, I probably could have sized down in this, but I didn't and it's fine!  It is so cute with my shoreline Converse, some flip flops and booties!  It's a great dress to wear now, and into the cooler months with a denim jacket thrown on!  It is one of those outfits where you look pulled together, but it isn't clingy and tight and you can just be comfy!  If they restock this dress I will definitely order at least one more! 


Last week I went to put coffee in my favorite striped Kate Spade travel mug and the lid was gone...just disappeared.  No doubt one of the boys used the cup and God only knows where the top is now...but I was mad!  I ordered this new mug and I am loving it!  We have tons of travel mugs over here, but I like a cute girly one!  I may pick up a few more of them..they are such a great price and would make great gifts throughout the year.  How fun to give this cute mug with a Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts gift card!


So last year I bought the blardigan, and it was soft and everything that everyone said it would be.  I loved it, I really loved it...until it started shedding...everywhere...everytime I wore it.  I was super disappointed, but I wound up returning it.  Now I have MANY girlfriends who have them, love them and never ever have a shedding problem...so I think maybe I just had a defective one:)  I ordered my mom the cocoa ombre one for her birthday last week, and she LOVES it!  Anyway...I had my eye on the baby blardigan, it was sitting in my shopping bag, and after reading how much everyone loved theirs, I decided to order it, and I am glad I did because of course the indigo is only left in a size L/XL as of the time I am typing this post.  I went back and forth between the grey and the indigo and wound up with the indigo because the grey was sold out...and I am so glad it was...I am LOVING the blue!  And it really is so fabulous!  I cannot wait for the cooler temps to start rolling in...I will be wearing this thing ALL the time...in my house to lounge in, with my leggings to drop Olivia off to school, with my jeans to go shopping and run errands...I will wear this all the time, I already know this!

I have my eye on a few more things, but I can't say there is anything else that I MUST have.  Like I said I will probably pick up a few travel mugs to keep in my closet as gifts to have on hand.  I may grab another pair of the pajamas..I know they are pricey, but they are awesome, and living here with warm weather like 11 out of the 12 months I will get lots of use out of them!

If your orders have arrived and there is something that you are just loving, please let us all know.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

  1. I ordered two more pairs of PJs, but I will say that mine from last year got a hole in the wash. 😕 I am returning some boots I ordered, but keeping some booties, Spanx faux leather leggings, and of course my PJs and Zella workout gear. When I shopped in person I got the BEST leather jacket. I'd been looking for one for years and finally found one I loved $150 off. Yippee!

    2. That baby blardigan is a WIN WIN! I got the indigo and LOVE IT! I decided to NOT bring it to the coast, because I could be wearing it at night but I wanted to save it. LOL .....and I also love my NOLA capri work out pants. They are awesome. I thought the sale was kind of lacking too and a lot of stuff is ALWAYS on every year. But what do I know. I am not a fashionista AT ALL!
