Summer into fall wrap top and jeans

OK, can I just tell you how much I love love love this wrap top! It’s so comfortable, and I adore the volume sleeves and dramatic side tie. Sleeves with volume were all over the fall 2018 runways in New York, and this top embodies the trend perfectly; at a fraction of the price of a top from a runway designer. Love that!

Wrap tops and dresses are inherently flattering. This top goes beyond the basic wrap top by featuring a dramatic tie on the side. I love the exaggerated ties which enable me to make a sizable side bow.

Of course, I need to give these jeans a shout out! I have been wearing them non-stop, despite the warm summer weather. I love the tulip hem, and the seams are slimming. The denim fabric is extremely soft too. I could live in them! If you’re tall, they act like a cropped jean, if you are short like me, they hit at the ankle and look like a slim boot cut. Love that! (I am 5’4″ for reference)

I know I have droned on about these boots already, but seriously, they are sooooo comfy! The stacked heel hits in the right place for ample arch support, and the split shaft allows air to flow. This makes them great for early fall when it’s still warm outside, but we all want to rock those fall trends.

This is definitely an outfit I love for the fall season; and foggy summer days. It’s an effortless look which looks like it took some effort! It can be amped up with pumps for an evening look, or paired with flats for a very casual look. Love the versatility!

Cozy cardigan sweater for fall 2018

fall 2018 outfit ideas fall sweater sale deals affordable popular nordstrom anniversary sale items

wearing: bold hoop earrings / lipstickcozy cardigan sweater / black tee / black handbag / Chanel fall nail polish / high waist classic jeans / split shaft ivory booties /

OK, it’s crazy hot outside; so no, I did not wear this past my driveway. I did, however, wear the outfit without the sweater for the day. I photographed the outfit with the sweater so you could see my favorite new fall sweater in action!

This cozy sweater is part of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, and it is on major sale for a limited time. The price is crazy good! It’s super cozy, and will be a fabulous go-to when temperatures cool down later this year. I can’t wait to reach for it every morning when the fog is blanketing the Bay!

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens up to the public today, so you too can snag this sweater for the fall and winter seasons! The price is right, and it’s so soft and cozy-you won’t regret it!

I’m also loving these booties. They are super comfortable, and can be worn now, as well as throughout the fall season. They are a great way to incorporate a little bit of the autumn  season into your wardrobe now.

Lastly, I need to give these jeans a shout-out. They are a classic denim style which I love; plus, they are on sale for a crazy good price! The high waist is modern, yet the fit is classic. I love that they are cropped; since I am 5’4″ the hemline hits me right at the ankle and I don’t have to worry about hemming them. They look cute with the hem down, but I also like how they look slightly rolled up; especially with flat shoes. If you are looking for basic jeans for the fall season, at a great price, this is your pair!

So where are you fall? I need some cooler temperatures because I want to start rocking my new fall pieces from the sale!!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale fall 2018 dressing room diaries

wearing: on Dawn: blazer / blouse / jeans / On me: dress (sale price under $60!!) /

Dawn from Fashion Should be Fun and I stopped by the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale for fall 2018 yesterday, and we had so much fun! We tried on a ton of clothing, and checked out all the accessories in person. I feel like this year the boots and the jeans are the star categories of the sale. I ordered two pairs of jeans, which I am waiting to receive, and I purchased two pair of boots; with more on my wish list. It’s hard to justify buying a ton of boots-although I do wear them often during the fall and winter months. . .so. . .I could buy more. . .mmmmm

My favorite part of the 2018 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has to be the boot selection. This year there are sooooo many boots, it is really hard to decide which ones to pick! I ordered the black pair shown above and can’t wait to get them! They are classic-with a twist. Love that!

These are all the boots I saw in person an fell in love. How I wish I had a money tree in my backyard so I could buy them all! Which pair is your favorite?

I loved this pretty green top! It has short sleeves which are perfect for warm fall days. The front twist is flattering and comfortable. As you can tell from the photo, this fabric will need some ironing; but other than that, it’s a cute top for daytime wear! It also works well with a black pencil skirt for the office or trousers. I love pieces which are great for both work and play!

Dawn is rocking this fabulous fall trench coat! As you know, trench coats are the IT coat style for the fall season, so this is an amazing find during the sale. The mixed fabrication combined with the body conscious fit, makes this trench coat a must-have! Can you believe it’s priced waaaay under $100 during the sale! This is such a great steal!

So Dawn and I loved these casual tops for fall. They are both cool weather tops, so they will be great for late fall when temperatures start to dip; or the fog decides to roll in! The sweater Dawn is wearing has a loose, relaxed fit which is great with jeans. The long sleeve tee I am wearing has an early 1990s vibe with a button up boat neck and dropped shoulders. The only thing missing are the shoulder pads! ha! It comes in multiple colors and the fabric is really soft. I plan to pick one up, just can’t decide on color yet. Which color do you like?

Here is what I bought so far during the sale:

These are the pieces I tried on, but haven’t purchased-yet 😉
