2015 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Start Date Announced!

Mark you calendars!  The 2015 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale start date has been announced! 

The 2015 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale will start on July 17, 2015! 

If it is anything like in years past, Nordstrom Rewards card members will be able to start shopping about a week in advance of the public sale date (this is called "early access").  The sale usually runs for about 2 weeks after the official opening day.

They are doing double points for card holders for early access and for the official sale start days.

The lookbook is typically released at the very end of June at the earliest, or the beginning of July.

Merry Christmas! And Happy Post Christmas Shopping!

Merry Christmas!  I hope you're having a relaxing Christmas holiday, whether you are celebrating it or not! 

Were you nice or naughty?  Did Santa bring you what you wanted?  :)


Even though stores are closed today, online stores are open. Nordstrom is calling their after Christmas sale a "clearance sale" now.  It looks like they are going away from their time honored tradition of a "half yearly sale" and they are now doing more frequent sales. 

There were some good deals on jeans at 40 and 50% off with pretty much all sizes available.  Hudson Baby Beth and Paige Hidden Hills in Petites (which never go on sale!).

Bloomingdales and Neiman Marcus are also doing an online clearance though I'm not sure if its anything new.  Macy's is doing their "one day sale" tomorrow with online preview today. 


Happy shopping and Happy New Year!

Nordstrom Price Matching

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Have you noticed that Nordstrom is now advertising price matches throughout the site and store?  I love that Nordstrom is being proactive about meeting competitor prices to earn our business.  I know that they have been price matching for years now, but it seems like only recently they are actually advertising this policy.

As I was doing some last minute Christmas shopping today I saw that Paige Premium Denim had been price matched to 15% off and many Joie blouses were also 15 or 20% off. 

On Nordstrom.com, I'm seeing that many items are showing anywhere from 10-30% with a notice saying the item's price has been Price Matched! Here's the complete Pricing Policy.

Thank you Nordstrom for continually *earning* my business and demonstrating why you have the best customer service in retail!

Nordstrom Fall Designer Clearance

Every Fall, Nordstrom has a designer clearance sale and will take 35-50% off their high end designer apparel and handbags.  This is a great time to pick up some really nice bags for a deeply discounted price.

Here are a few picks that stood out to me this year!

Chloe Medium Dree Pebbled Leather Satchel

Chloe Medium Dree Pebbled Leather Satchel (Sale: $1,644.98)


What a gorgeous shade of red!  The pebbled leather is a little more casual, but it will hold up well vs. a smooth leather which always seems to show every little nick and scratch.  I also love that it has a top zipper to keep everything securely inside.  It is also available on sale in camel, tan and black.

Burberry Haymarket Check Flat Wallet

Burberry Haymarket Check Flat Wallet (Sale: $325.49)
Love this classic Burberry Haymarket check patterned wallet.  Personally I prefer flap wallets to zip ones, so this is right up my alley.  My only criticism is that I'm not sure if there are enough slots for all of my credit & loyalty cards. 

Proenza Schouler Medium PS Elliot Satchel

Proenza Schouler Medium PS Elliot Satchel (Sale: $1,289.98)

I love that the PS Elliot bags have a slightly different look than the PS1 bags but they are still very Proenza Schouler looking.  This one is smooth leather so I would have to be super careful wearing it and make sure to have some leather care cream on hand to buff out scratches.


Armani Collezioni Caban Coat

How gorgeous is this Armani coat?  I love the sculpted back and the minimalist front.  The mini funnel neck is also really cute.  The model's arms seem to be a little long for it though! :)

My Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Haul and Reviews!

I have done some serious shopping damage at the Anniversary Sale and I wanted to share a haul post as well as a few notes about my favorite finds.

These are my 3 favorite finds this year. The Halogen Relaxed U-Neck Tee is super comfortable and is great weekend wear. The Pleione split neck blouse and Lush Perfect Tunic Henley are great for being slightly dressier and I can wear them to work on casual days. The Lush top is quite long as it is a tunic, so it would go great over leggings.

I also loved these next few tops. The Bobeau boxy top had a nice loose shape to it. The material was also a nice weight and had some texture. The Chloe K ran extremely small, but I thought it was cute once I figured out what size I would need. I typically wear an XS in tops but I had to size up to a Medium since it was so narrow in the shoulders and arms. The teal color was especially beautiful. The Pleione Mixed Media Tunic was similar to the Lush tunic but I liked that there was the extra button and placket for a slightly different look.

I bought this Caslon Roll Sleeve Knit Blazer last year and love it to death so I bought another one in a different color to mix it up.  The Zella Live In Leggings are one of my favorite items from Nordstrom so of course I had to pick up another one.  They are perfect for wearing around the house to lounge and to wear out to the gym.  These Honeydew hipsters are so cute and very comfortable too.  I also like that they are cotton.
