I love a cozy cardigan with a tank or silk cami
I love some flats that can be styled up (with a pencil skirt) or down with jeans. Here I styled them with all white and a cozy grey cardigan. I live in flats so I included more from the sale below. Happy Monday!

I love this combo – black and tan! And the best part? It’s all on sale! The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is in full force and now is the time to buy and secure your size. I was just telling a friend how I’m so shocked how fast things are selling out this year. Crazy. Of course, I’m a huge fan of their free shipping on purchases and returns and curbside pickup! Take advantage of both. Happy Sunday!
Cute Boots from the Sale
Booties and OTK boots are a fall must-have and it’s a great time to get them on sale. How cute are booties with leggings or jeans and a comfy cardigan?

Jeans
Don’t miss this sale without buying a pair of jeans. Here are some of my favorites!
Sweaters
I’m always surprised how much wear I get out of a good sweater in the summer and how well it transitions into fall. You can’t go wrong with a tank, sweater and jeans. Ever.
Tops
I personally love an interesting tops, because they look great with jeans and that’s all I wear. This bodysuit is uber flattering great under a skirt or jeans.
Shoes
As a stylist, I always encourage my clients to invest in “investment buys.” Well made shoes fit into that catagory such as Rag & Bone and Stuart Weitzman.
Skirts
I love pairing over the knee boots with skirts for fall. A good suede or leather skirt goes a long way.
Dresses
A love that a dress is one and done and paired easily with a wrap sandal, booties or a pump.
Handbags & Accessories
How cute is this stripe bag? I want to bring it to the farmer’s market tomorrow!
Beauty
Most of these things I already have – so I highly recommend! I’m trying Neulash for the first time as my friend told me its amazing. With so many beauty exclusives this year, it’s a great time to try a new brand or gift a friend.
Home
From sheets to bar carts to a copper poly pillowcase. The pillowcase I’ve heard great things about, these candles make great hostess gifts and I tend to buy sheets a couple times a year, always a plus when its on sale!
Jackets
It may be 91 degrees out, but if you buy now, you’ll thank yourself later. It’s a great time to stock up on a new Fall/Winter jacket.

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a great time to enjoy MAJOR markdowns on some of your favorite brands. To be honest, it’s one of my favorite times of year to not only get a peak at fall fashion (my favorite) but stock up on investment buys. It is brand new product that you can shop before anyone else. Insert happy dance. Think Stuart Weitzman over-the-knee boots, the jeans you’ve been eyeing, cashmere cardigans and cute booties. However it CAN be intimidating and even a little overwhelming, so follow along on Instagram and here on the blog in the coming weeks as I show some of my favorite looks. Let me be your Nordstrom Anniversary Sale editor. xo

Stay tuned Thursday July 13, (the first day of the sale) and the following weeks as I round up my favorites from the sale for women, children, a little men’s and home.

If you know me well, I’m not huge into overalls, but I made an exception for these flared, über flattering version I paired with an off-the-shoulder top, clogs and a small tassel bag. What do you think? A 70’s upgrade to a classic farmer’s bibs. I guess you could say I’m converted.
a hint at my video coming soon . . . Nothing gives drama like a bell sleeve top. You can’t beat the movement. I like to pair it simply – with classic jeans and chelsea boots. Don’t overthink it. Although I’m the queen of overthinking, I digress. If you like fall as much as I do, do yourself a favor, buy ahead, and marvel at the styling options. The cherry on top, is that it is just $25. Just stay away from your toddler’s cute lil sticky hands.

Q & A
1. How is it having a large family in Los Angeles? I think it’s important to know what places, and neighborhoods are more kid friendly etc. Read my post on 5 kid friendly LA.
2. When do you style outfits? Honestly, some of the best “editing” i.e. trying on, taking off, and more mixing, less matching happens when the house is quiet, the last child has gone to sleep! I can gather my thoughts, write copy, and return emails.
3. Tell us something we don’t know . . . Well, I have 250 pairs of shoes in my house, but can never find a pen. True Story.
4. Will we be seeing any short videos coming soon? Yes! Glad you asked, we filmed one last week coming soon! Eeek! I’m somewhat camera shy, so it was fun to crawl out of my shell. Meanwhile, just enjoy my short boomerangs on Instagram.
5. Where are you going next? I’m planning a trip to NYC, so comment with your must see, must eat, must drink, must everything.
6. Tell us about your week . . . My family has been in town which means we’re going to the beach, using 14 eggs for scrambled eggs in the morning and using lots of paper plates. No shame! And did I mention, there’s an inch of sand on my floors? It has been a treat seeing the cousins bond all over again since last seeing each other in January. If you think about it, its really just a short time together before they all part ways, some to different schools and a very wide 2200 miles away from each other. I get choked up just thinking about it. I am also needing versatility in my dressing since time is always of the essence as a busy mom.
Any Last Words? Sometimes you just need a $39 dress worn as a top, and laugh about all the scrambled eggs on the floor. Memories in the making.
