My fall shoe capsule this season continues to offer comfort and support for my planter fasciitis. I love these sneakers because they come with arch support, and I can save my orthotics for my workout shoes. Not only do these sneakers offer support, they are currently hot on the streets! Love that!

These black and white sneakers, also known as “Pandas,” are extremely popular because the black and white color combo is classic and can be worn with most outfits. They are definitely the sneakers I reach for the most often! I have moved my high tops and mids to the back of the closet for the fall season since I am not a huge fan of crunching up my jeans or pants over the high-top portion of the sneaker. I will pull them back out in the spring when I switch back to shorts, casual skirts, and casual dresses. I love my low tops in the fall season.

Loafers are classic, and also hot for the fall season. You cannot go wrong with any classic pair you have in your closet. Pull them out from the back and rock them this fall! I have had this pair of loafer slides for so many years I have lost count. They are perfect for fall! Love!

Boots are always hot for fall, and this autumn season is no exception. Look for western style boots, metallic boots, and classic lug soles. This pair of lug sole boots is available every fall and winter seasons. If you don’t have a pair yet, what are you waiting for? They look fabulous, offer comfort, and work wonders in ice and snow. Love that!

How many times have you looked for a pair of sneakers, and then not been excited about the available colorways? This has happened to me so many times! Over a decade ago, Nike started letting customers customize sneakers through their website. The original service was known as “Nike ID,” but has since evolved into “Nike by You.”

Every once in awhile I have gone onto Nike’s website and customized sneakers for myself. The last time I did this was in 2017, so it has been awhile! Normally I would customize a pair for either the gym or running. This time around, I wanted a neutral pair to wear as a street sneaker. I decided to customize a pair of Nike Air Zoom sneakers, and I love the result!

The Nike Air Zoom sneakers, which frequently appear on their website, often have a wavy design on the side. It gives off 1970s vides and offers a colorful look. I wanted the arch support and comfort of the Air Zoom, without the retro design and eye-catching colors, so when the Nike by You Air Zoom was offered in two designs, the wavy version and this woven version, I decided to customize the woven version!

The woven Air Zoom has a fresh look to it, and I love how Nike weaves fabric with leather. It has a nice texture and a modern look. I mixed a couple neutral hues and created a sneaker I can wear all year long, with pretty much anything. Love!

So, while you are putting your fall wardrobe together, and having trouble finding the right sneakers, check out Nike by You! There are several types of shoes you can customize, and Nike rotates the styles you can customize. Have fun with it!

Best of Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2022

Best of Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2022 from top left: black handbag / casual belt (under $50) / hairdryer / statement earrings / yellow sweater / moto jacket / henley sweater / black boots / street sneakers / split shaft boots /

The annual Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is here! Today, Nordstrom’s big spenders get to start shopping the sale early. Tomorrow, Ambassador level customers are able to shop the sale, followed by Influencer level shoppers on July 9, and the general public on July 15. Basically, if you have a Nordstrom credit card, you will fall into one of the first three categories-and chances are, you already know where you fall!

This sale can be very tempting, but if you are not careful, you will over-shop. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a combination of summer items, year-round basics, and pre-fall merchandise. You won’t find anything trendsetting or groundbreaking in the sale. This is a sale which is ideal for stocking up on basics, and necessities you might need right now, or anticipate needing in the fall season. Remember, the real fall merchandise will hit stores in early August, and throughout the month. This is pre-fall and not a reflection of incoming trends.

Before you make your shopping list for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, take an inventory of your closet. What do you have from last year that still works? What is your wardrobe lacking? What basics do you need? This sale is a great time to pick up underwear, socks, workout clothing, and basic fall needs such as neutral boots, sneakers, and classic sweaters.

There is a lot of merchandise to go through in this sale! It can be overwhelming! Plus, when you go in store, there is total chaos. Shopping online is the best way to score what you want from this sale, and also maintain sanity. Who wants to shop with the vultures? Not me! I’m shopping this sale from the comfort of my own home, in my slippers. Love that!

So, without further ado, here are my favorites from the sale; in addition to what is featured above. To shop, go to the scrollable shopping widget below the collage and click on the photo of the item you are interested in. You will be taken directly to that item.

Happy shopping and stay fabulous!
