I tried on a bunch of jeans and some cardigans last night at Nordstrom.

I liked this Vince bouclé cardigan for cool nights and even workwear.

Disclaimer, these jeans aren’t on the NSALE, but I LOVED these soft thin denim jeans with a slight wide leg. I couldn’t purchase these fast enough.

This Open Edit off the shoulder top comes in black and white. I want both colors.

This under $50 bracelet makes for a great gift!

I wish I had this Isabel Marant sweatshirt last night in Newport Beach! It was chilly.

Myers cropped tee is a bestseller and a chic shape.

Which is your favorite?

It’s that time again… the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is HERE! 

I look forward to this sale every year—it’s like back-to-school shopping for grown-ups (but way more fun). Early Access is happening now, and it opens to the public July 12, so get those wishlists ready, girls! I broke down all the important dates, how to get the Nordstrom card if you’re not already a cardholder, and listed my top picks — click on the images above.

Quick tip: If you’ve had your eye on anything from brands like AG, Vince, or AllSaints—don’t wait. These deals don’t come around again until next year.

On a more personal note—Reid’s had treatment all week, so we rented a house in Orange County to be closer to the hospital. It’s been such a gift to cut the drive time and sneak in beach walks, smoothies, and some peace in between appointments. Always looking for silver linings and little blessings in the hard stuff. 

Let me know what you’re shopping—need help finding something? I got you. Just shoot me a DM.

Hope, Healing & Chemo Days

by Shalice Noel
written by Shalice Noel

Hi friends,

A lot has happened since I have written in this space. I’ve written this blog post in my head while washing dishes, walking the dog, and even driving home from treatment. I’ve been thinking about you and all that I need to update you on. I love when you send me verses, and tell me that you are praying.

4 words: the surgery didn’t work. 4 dreaded words. On May 14, we had scheduled an IR appointment to oblate 3 tumors in Reid’s liver. We had a zoom call before with the IR doctor to go over the procedure. It seemed non-invasive, calculated with little to no risk, using a needle and CT scan and it almost sounded too good to be true. Until it was. What the doctor explained as an outpatient procedure, with only a minimal possibility of staying over night for observation, became a long procedure (3x as long as they said it would be) with a prolonged stay and some complications afterwards. Just 4 weeks later, I’m here to report that 2 tumors grew since then. That is a very fast growth. But we are doing all we can do to mitigate the growth.

On a positive note, Reid is attending an integrative oncologist for 4 weeks in San Clemente for low dose chemo and supportive IV infusions. He is overall feeling good and tolerating the low dose chemo well. Praise!

Have you heard of brachytherapy? It’s a targeted form of radiation where tiny radioactive seeds are placed directly into the liver, aimed right at the tumors. This focused approach helps minimize damage to the surrounding healthy tissue. It works by damaging the DNA of cancer cells, making it harder for them to grow and divide — while sparing healthy cells as much as possible. The best part? It’s typically done as an outpatient procedure, meaning no long hospital stay.

I understand you will have lots of questions of which you can add to the comments and I’ll try to answer them as best I can.

Asking for prayers today—that this chemo does what it’s meant to do: kill every last cancer cell and stop any new tumors from forming. In the meantime, we are driving A LOT and praying for strength in this season. I’m so incredibly thankful for the loving environment surrounding Reid’s treatment, the kind and attentive nurses, and the surprising energy he’s had lately. We’re clinging to hope, leaning on faith, and so grateful for your continued love and prayers. 💛

My Current Obsessions: Beauty, Wellness & A Little Fun

by Shalice Noel
written by Shalice Noel

Happy Friday, friends!
In between laundry, Reid’s anti-cancer protocol, and driving kids around, I’ve been meaning to share my current top 5! It’s a mix of beauty, wellness, and just-for-fun essentials I keep reaching for.

  1. Liquid collagen – because healthy hair and joints are always in style.
  2. Amazon sunglasses – under $20 and look designer. Trust me, I’ve tested more than I’d like to admit.
  3. Face tape – don’t knock it till you try it. Instant lift, locks in your serum and lotion, no appointment needed.
  4. Sour gummies – only 3g of sugar and somehow still addicting.
  5. Red light therapy (aka my Lume Box) – my skin’s new BFF. I use it while answering emails or watching a show. Lumebox gives you a discount with this link! Red light therapy (RLT) reduces inflammation, helps muscle recovery, increases collagen and heals wounds more quickly. 

Have you tried any of these? I’m genuinely obsessed. We’re headed into the mountains this weekend for some fresh air, dirt trails, and a little digital detox. What are you up to?

Collagen is back: I Lost Half My Hair After Giving Birth—Here’s What Finally Worked

by Shalice Noel
written by Shalice Noel

Happy Friday, friends!

The collagen we know and love is officially back—specifically, LIFE and TRIM! 🎉

Use [this link] to order and feel free to share it! It’s the same trusted formula with 7 patented ingredients and 13 powerful superfruits—just with a fresh new home.

Some of you have followed my hair journey. I’ve always struggled with hair thickness, and after giving birth to Levi, I experienced significant postpartum hair loss. If you’re going through something similar, Life might be a game-changer—it’s their best-seller for a reason.

Check out my before-and-after photos below—I’d love to know what you think!
And of course, reach out with any questions about ordering.

Father's Day

Making Room for More: Time, Grace, and Grilling with Dad

by Shalice Noel
written by Shalice Noel

1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5 // 6 // 7 // 8

Father’s Day is almost here, and lately we’ve been leaning into more — more family time, more fireside chats, more date nights, more rounds of Dutch Blitz, more dinners around the table, and slowly checking off our SoCal bucket list. Why? Because cancer treatment is tough, and honestly, so is adulting. We’re learning to cherish the in-between moments.

As for Father’s Day plans? We don’t have much set yet — probably grilling out, a little pool time, and soaking in the sunshine. Simple feels good right now.

Whatever your plans look like, I hope they’re meaningful. And if you’re shopping for a special guy (or just curious), I’ve linked Reid’s favorite picks below — tried and true.

1 Silk pajamas

2 Best dad ever mug

3 Solo stoves are all the rage! Reid has wanted one for so long!

4 When in doubt, give a photo book! Love this personal touch.

5 Eames chair in black – has been on Reid’s wishlist for as long as I can remember

6 So many benefits to organic underwear!

7 Men’s polo that Reid loves! The fabrics and fit set them apart

8 This Melin hat is all the rage! My boys love it too

Summer Simplified: The Ultimate Capsule Wardrobe Guide

by Shalice Noel
written by Shalice Noel

1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5 // 6 // 7 // 8 // 9 // 10 // 11

1 Love these brown slides! Can be dressed up or down, true to size and has a 1.75″ heel.

2 Relaxed wide leg jeans are a must. Get your hands on them before they’re gone. I sized up. Under $60!

3 Relaxed boyfriend tee made in LA! Size down.

4 $15 cotton tank that goes with EVERYTHING

5 Emerald blazer I love for that pop of color. I get so many compliments when I wear it.

6 Flowy pants for school drop off

7 Linen shorts are versatile and flattering. Hello flattering pleats! Add a belt and enjoy the breathable fabric.

8 Chic cuff bracelets. I personally love the ivory one. Comes in a set of 3.

9 Midi slip dress and only $50!

10 Mom shorts for the win. I love these and wear them daily! Size up! They run small.

11 Pumps that look like Manolo, but are a fraction of the price!

Summer’s here, and the temps are rising—enter the 11-piece summer capsule collection, aka my sartorial life raft. Think effortless linen, elevated basics, and that one breezy dress that makes you feel like you vacation in the South of France. It’s giving “I planned this look,” but secretly it’s the third time this week I’ve worn those high-waisted shorts. Timeless? Absolutely. Boring? Never. This capsule’s doing more heavy lifting than my iced coffee habit, and honestly, we love to see it. Oh, and if Audrey Hepburn taught us anything (besides how to rock cropped pants and oversized sunnies like a boss), it’s that classic style never goes out of season—black, white, and a dash of grace, always in stock. Keep it simple. Which are your favorites?
