Tip: skip the tees and tanks and go for the items you won’t regret this fall, like boots, jackets and investment buys.

The wonderful sale is finally upon us! Click on the images to shop and let me know in the comments if you have any questions. Scroll down for what I don’t think is worth it on the sale. Read on and let me know what you think in the comments.

Flare jeans

Coats and Jackets

Skincare and Makeup

Have you tried Gucci Westman’s line? I would definitely jump on the “highlight stick duo,” was $50 now $40.

Bags

I didn’t find a ton of bags or accessories. I am mainly obsessed with the Kurt Geiger belt bag!

Home and Luggage

Note: Beis has 360 turning wheels! I love a good wooden cutting board (no pfas from the plastic ones)

Mens

Loving the crewneck tees, Faherty hoodie and AG jeans that fit like a glove.

Boys

Levi wants Jordan’s for his birthday, so I’m hoping he will like these Nike Court?

Socks

I really want these Barefoot Dreams socks now!

Sneakers

So many fun sneakers on the NSALE, get extra pairs as Christmas presents!

If you buy one pair of heels . . . THIS PAIR

Boots

Workwear

What I don’t think is worth it in the NSALE

Every year when I shop the NSALE, I tell people that there is a strategy to the sale. Don’t just buy something because it is on sale. Think investment buys and wardrobe builders. The below however, didn’t seem worth it. Do you agree?

Barefoot dreams cardigan

It’s there every year in the same driftwood color, I’m over it. And at this point, you should already have one.

The Versace watch is over the top, and not a classic choice IMO.

the Levi’s denim jacket. It’s the same price as in store, so if you need one, get it but don’t stress because it’s not much of a discount.

MOLLY walnut trouser jeans

HOLLY high waist flares

ROSIE coated denim fits tts.

The MIA shown above. fit tts.

The Nordstrom sale is a great time to invest in fall pieces at discount. This year, I’m consentrating on investment buys. No tees or tanks, but mainly items like elevated boots and denim at discount. I hope to be YOUR guide for the Nordstrom sale. Lmk what you’re looking for! Or you can email, mgmt@shalicenoel.com.

It is no secret that I am sucker for good denim and get butterflies in my stomach when I arrive at the Nordstrom sale and get to comb through all the denim selection. This year supply is no exception. So many great brands and fits to choose from. Here are some of my highlights from the sale. Don’t forget to add these to your wishlist! These will sell out quickly!

Have you interviewed for a job in the last couple years?  How did that go?  With work from home still a thing, it seems the Virtual Interview is the current trend.  Reid just went through a series of Zoom interviews, so we thought it would be useful to share some interviewing tips and I’ll share what I would wear considering; you are on camera and not in real life.  The interviewing dynamic is much different than in person, so prepare wisely to smash that interview.

Five tips to consider on a Virtual Interview

1)    Whiten your teeth.  The Virtual Interview positive is you don’t have to worry about stinky breath, but make sure you smile often and don’t have your lunch stuck in your teeth.  They should only see your pretty white smile.  Whitening Strips

2)    Apply face tanner water and then apply some serum to make your skin glow and radiant.  The Water by Tan-Luxe

3)    Look the employer in the eyes and do not look into the camera. 

4)    Sit with good posture, chin up and hands in your lap. This is what I believe is the downfall to the virtual interview; you lose the importance of body language. Remember to lean into the camera when something interests you as you would at a conference table. 

5)    Keep a cheat sheet in front of you, to remember names, key messages, or anything else you don’t want to forget in the heat of the moment.  Don’t forget a water bottle as well.  If you are talking a lot and nervous, you will want to prevent dry mouth.

Five tips on what to wear for a Virtual Interview

1)    Do not wear stripes.  Choose something solid. 

2)    I always recommend a feminine power suit with a flattering neck line and tasteful jewelry.

3)    Wear your hair up to show your jaw and neck line.

4)    Wear your power shoes if it makes you feel better.  If not, wear slippers.

a.     (caution though…Reid wore shorts in the interview and they asked about a drawing against the wall.  He naturally got up to show it to them on the screen and revealed his shorts and slides with socks!!!  It may have worked to his advantage in this situation.  They got a chuckle and put everyone at ease on the call.)

5)    Nude lipstick. You don’t want too bold of a color.

5 Vests I’m loving

Denim vest how fun is this? Can be paired with the peasant top.

Double Breasted Vest – a classic

Single breasted waistcoat – menswear tailoring with a feminine edge

Ivory Sleeveless Double Breasted Vest – I’d pair with cropped skinny pants

Stripe Gray Vest – to pair with white pants or white jeans
