The Nordstrom sale is in full swing, if you haven’t checked it out yet, you can see my favorites from the sale online here.

As we move through the summer season, and look towards the upcoming fall season, we are continuing to see plenty of neutral hues with pops of colors, and a few fun prints. It will still be a season of investment dressing, so continue to steer towards classic styles, high quality, and proper fit.

Suede is gaining popularity for fall, which it always does, but this year it just seems more inviting. Maybe it’s the soft, comfort factor we get from suede. Look for handbags, footwear and clothing items in soft suede.

Western boots are still hot as well as 1960s styles with lower heels. Another upcoming trend to watch is art deco. Think dropped waists and occasional touches of fringe. Although, that isn’t for boots. With a dropped waist, you will want a short heel and simple, smooth leather. Mary Janes will work too! More on that next month. . .

The Nordstrom sale is in full swing, and it’s a great time to pick up a few pre-fall items to refresh our wardrobes. You can check out my picks online here.

In nail polish news, summer nail polish has been flying off store shelves, and it seems “limited edition” will continue into the fall season. Dior and Chanel will introduce new collections in August; I will keep you posted! The common theme we are seeing for summer and early fall is pink! So, stay tuned!

Continue to invest in neutral hues. Pops of autumn color will emerge in the next month so you can round out your fall personal style.

Nail polish is hot this year! As soon as Chanel released their summer nail polish, the collection sold within days. Thankfully there are still a handful of colors left online here. But, if you love a color, snap it up now because they are selling fast!

It’s amazing how popular nail polish is in 2026. I am not used to nail polish collections selling out within a week after being introduced. It isn’t just Chanel selling out, Hermes and Dior have had sell outs as well. If you have trouble locating a color, let me know. I can try and locate it for you in stock; of course, no guarantees. If you see a color you love, snap it up right away!

In addition to nail polish being hot, the anonymous handbag, investment dressing, and heavier fragrances are all hot right now. Yes, that’s right, heavier fragrances. I have even heard rumors that leaving a fragrance trail behind is coming back in style! It was how we wore fragrance in the 1990s, and it seems to be making a comeback. Think gourmands and woody fragrances.
