Whether you are someone who just prefers the simple basics when it comes to choosing your outfits or you’re the girl all about the thrill and flair of a great accessory, I’ll have you covered throughout the mayhem that is the Nordstrom Sale Event. Because trust me when I say, there are tons of choices and lots of amazing options.

In fact, I just combed through what seemed like thousands of products at Nordstrom for their in-store early access event. I had a giant glass of water in my hand the entire time because of this crazy LA heat, but all I was thinking about was what’s inspiring me for fall and what might be worth investing in. I really tried to sift through things and choose only the best of the best because I totally get it—I’m a busy wife and mom, and really, most of us just don’t have the time to go through every piece of clothing, accessory and makeup that’s on sale. Especially in my situation because if I wait till October when baby #5 arrives, I definitely won’t have time to shop for my fall and winter wardrobe. So, believe me, if I took the time to go to the store in person, pre-order, and then post the item, it’ll be worth your time too—I promise!

After looking things over, I can safely say I’m loving suede, shearling and a great bootie. The latter is ALL about the cut. I was telling a friend of mine, when shopping for the best booties, I look for a cut that flatters the ankle, doesn’t cover it, and sometimes a V shape, etc. I can’t wait to show you the booties I ordered as well as the style I pre-ordered. In the meantime, here’s a heads up of what should be in YOUR CART before sizes sell out.

As an FYI last years big sellers were a suede wrap skirt, wrap poncho, suede booties, cardigans, jeans, etc. If you want MORE Stay in touch via FOLLOWING me on the Liketoknow.it app “shalicenoel” for exclusive looks and first-hand finds that I’ll tell you to JUMP ON, as well as my newsletter.

Happy Shopping1

For the Lake Arrowhead Home, I also stocked up on some towels and blankets (and candles make great gifts for the kids teachers!)

 

 

 

The annual Nordstrom Anniversary Sale starts July 12, and I wanted to give you a heads up! It’s that time of the year, I get a sitter all day, shop what I like, share it all with you. Not to mention, it’s a great time to stock up on gifts for Christmas and birthdays. This year is a little different having the Arrowhead house to furnish and having a cute baby bump! I will be sure to look for items that work both for maternity and non-maternity as well as good home finds. I’m on the search for fluffy pillows, throws and candles for house guests. One of the things I LOVE about the sale is that it includes CURRENT ITEMS for fall so when the sale is over all the pieces go back to retail price August 6.

One of the overwhelming things about the sale is that there is a lot to comb through from beauty to basics to home accessories! That is why I am here to FILTER what I consider is worth your time and include when I post on the blog, Instagram and the Liketoknow.it app! So, we sure to follow me on the LiketoKnow.it app for exclusive products and outfits that will not be on the blog and instagram.

FYI NORDSTROM card members shop 8 days earlier than everyone else and get first pick of sizes and styles. It is KEY to have the card for early access to secure your size because some years I have procrastinated and haven’t been able to find my size 4 dress and size 9 heels, soooo sad.

DATES TO REMEMBER

JULY 11 Level 4 cardmembers get to pre-shop the sale in stores only.

JULY 12-19 all cardmembers get to shop Early Access in stores and online.

JULY 20-AUGUST 5 our biggest sale of the year opens to the public. Find Your Store

Why sign up for the Nordstrom Credit card?  Get a $40 bonus Note when you make any purchase with Nordstorm on your new card the day you’re approved. Yay for free money!

The biggest holiday of the summer is upon us and I have to admit, I’m pretty excited. We just wrapped up the kitchen remodel of our A-Frame cabin on Lake Arrowhead and it’s going to be so nice to have it done and ready for my family next week. Although I’m excited about family time and the cabin, I also had to get everyone’s outfit for the 4th just right!

So like I said, we will be spending the holiday at Lake Arrowhead, which means I opted for a simple white dress for myself, a blue banana dress for my eldest, polos for my boys, and overalls for my youngest daughter. I love how Nordstrom always has an awesome online selection of girls and boys clothes. My eldest is growing like a weed, so if I’m unsure about sizing I order two sizes and easily return from home. Having a large family, Nordstrom has also provided conveniences like curbside pick up. So easy! I just parked and called the number they provided and me and the kids and I waited in the car while the store associate loaded our bags. Super convenient and just another reason to love Nordstrom right? When I’m dressing them, it’s all about simplicity when you’re planning on having a low key weekend with lots of grilling and my favorite flag cake. Have you ever made a flag cake? It’s amazing! I’ve included the recipe below.

Whatever you’re doing for the holiday, I hope you have a lovely 4th of July with friends and family enjoying all the freedom our country has to celebrate.
Thank you Nordstrom for sponsoring this post!

The season of dresses all day, every day is upon us! And let me tell you, that is amazing news for someone with a growing bump (although none of these options are maternity, which makes them even better!). I love this time of year because all my favorite brands are releasing their new dresses for summer, so the time to stock up is now!
Today I’ve rounded up some of my favorites for you guys so you’ll be ready for all the summer weddings and brunch dates on restaurant patios. Of course there’s plenty of floral options because who doesn’t love floral for spring and summer? I’m also a big fan of the wrap dress, so I’ve included that style as well. I find that it’s just really flattering on any body type.
The best part of this roundup? They’re all under $50! No need to feel guilty for this mini little shopping spree! The price point is super wallet friendly and saves enough for that beach vacation. 😉

I don’t know about you, but I love a good selfie. I don’t always need the photo taken with the big camera to appreciate an outfit. I like styling pieces on the go, and as you know, my life, like yours, is very much ON the GO! I was happy to find long distressed shorts to wear this summer with a bella band, a wrap dress under $50, flattering black jeans and lots of irresistible shoes! I thought I’d share them here too on the blog. As always my shop page is open 24/7, you can follow me on the LiketoKnow.it App, and ask any questions. Happy Tuesday!
