The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is in full swing, and I am patiently waiting my turn to shop. If you haven’t checked out my “Best of” post yet, you can read all about the best of the sale here.

I plan on snapping up the yellow sweater, golden boots, and earrings shown above. The sale this year is a mix of summer basics, pre-fall items, and closet staples. I usually recommend stocking up on closet staples during this sale, but for me personally, I don’t need anything. Therefore, I plan to grab a couple pre-fall items to kick off my fall capsule wardrobe which is still in the planning phases.

Golden accessories have been a hot trend for a couple of years now. For the fall season, it looks like we will be seeing even more golden handbags and footwear. I am loving the handbag shown above as it comes with two straps and it is just the right size for daily use. The boots from the Nordstrom Sale seem perfect for fall too since they offer a golden tone and classic boot silhouette. The wooden heel makes them a little bit casual, which is just my style. Love that!

Hobo handbags and small handbags are still flying off store shelves and will remain hot as move through the remainder of 2022 and into 2023. Look at a change as we move into 2023 on “how to wear your handbag.” Shoulder bags are starting to go back to being worn over the shoulder as we move away from wearing them cross body. Keep that in mind as you adjust your straps! I am having a hard time with it! haha, I love wearing my bags cross body. It really is convenient. We shall see if the trend takes off, or if consumers are stubborn and continue to wear their shoulder bags cross body. What are your thoughts on this trend?
