EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT!!!

Hi friends!  It’s a super exciting day over here and I couldn’t wait to share more of this with you!  There’s been a few sneak peeks on Stories and a mention on my blog, but today, I finally get to officially announce that I’m partnering with 8 wonderful bloggers and Gibson Look to launch a special holiday collection at Nordstrom!

As I type this sentence I can hardly believe it’s true!  

I’m both humbled and amazed to be part of such an exciting collaboration.  When I started blogging 8 years ago, I never dreamed that this is where it would lead me.  I’m 100% aware that it’s only because of your readership and support that these opportunities come my way, so from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!  I love and appreciate you more than you know.

ABOUT THE GIBSON X GLAM HOLIDAY COLLECTION

Now, let me tell you a little bit more about what you can expect from the dazzling Gibson x Glam collection!  We will have everything you need to get ready for a holiday party, girls night out, date night, office extravaganza, or fancy holiday photos!  I know we all love a chance to dress up once in awhile and this collection will be perfect for outfitting you from head to toe so you look all fancy and feel super cute!

The collection will launch at Nordstrom on November 12, so mark your calendars!  I’ll be sharing more along the way, so be sure to subscribe to my blog via email so you get first dibs on all the news and spectacular pieces!

THE COOLEST PART

One thing that is unique about this holiday collection is that each of us gals got to have a special a piece named after us.  What that means is that when the collection launches at Nordstrom, there will be an item called “The Megan”.  #saywhat?!

I chose this piece and style with YOU in mind and I hope you love it as much as I do!  It’s something that will be flattering on everyone and can be dressed up or down.  I cannot wait to hear what you think about it when I get to show it to you!

But honestly, I’ve seen and tried on the entire collection and every.single.thing is something you will want!  It’s all really good!

The BLOGGERS PARTICIPATING

It’s so fun to be doing this collection with a group of my ‘real life’ friends.  We chat on the daily and I wouldn’t want to do blogging without them!  The only person I haven’t met in person yet is Rachel, but we also are texting buds, so I can’t wait to meet her in person!

I’m flying to LA this morning to shoot the collection so it will be awesome to all be in one place for a change. I’ll be sharing my trip to LA with you on Stories, so you can see the behind the scenes!

GIBSON CLOTHING LINE

I know you guys are Gibson fans too, but you might not know that there is a real (fabulous) woman behind the line, Suzie Turner, that founded it in 2008.  She is just wonderful in person and so bright and fun and innovative.

And in case you need a refresher of her clothing line, she is the genius behind this happy Summer collection with my friend Cassie . . .

You have to check out the Maroma halter top that’s now out in new FALL colors! I’m a huge fan of the “beige red, black dot” color.  It would look great worn now with black jeans and tan booties.

And of course, Gibson is also known for all of their cozy goodness!

Gibson Twist Front Top

This pink front twist top is built with a faux mini front tuck, so you instantly get that look without having to worry about whether you got that tuck right! 😉  The scarf is an old fave in a new color.  Aren’t these soft pastels pretty for Fall?

Gibson Tie Sleeve Sweatshirt

The sweatshirt with the tie sleeves built right in is always a fan favorite.  It comes in more colors, but the grey and pink are my faves.

I’m still wearing mine with my fave boyfriend jean shorts!

Gibson Cowl Neck Top

Isn’t this cowl neck split top adorable?!  You can wear the split in the front or in the back, the tag is on the side! It’s in their signature ultra soft material that you just want to snuggle in all day!

Gibson Tunic

The comfy tunic that I wore in my Bedroom Reveal is on sale for only $35 and comes in several colors.  These similar AG skinny jeans are also priced matched right now, 25% off.  I always get my AG jeans on sale- they are worth the splurge!

  • Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2017 – Dressing Room Review Part 1

    Hey friends! I’m sure I don’t have to tell you twice that it’s an exciting day for all of us fashion lovers!  I know y’all are just as excited about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale as I am! And I’m so happy you’re here to shop with me!  #itsmorefunwithfriends!  Cue the champagne, cheers and confetti!!!  I actually did have mimosas while I shopped the sale early yesterday and can I tell you- shopping is even more fun with a little side of bubbly! #youknewthat! I think they wanted to get me drunk so I’d shop my face off.  As if I needed liquid courage for that! I hope you are at home or work (shh, I won’t tell!) shopping online, because I’m sure the store is crazy packed today and I wouldn’t want to fight the traffic or dressing rooms today of all days!

    And, if you aren’t quite sure what all the fuss is about, it’s okay, I’m happy to fill you in! The Nordstrom Anniversary sale is THE SALE with all the NEW fall fashion goodness that is just released, but at slashed prices for three weeks, then they go up to full-price.  The things that are on sale now are the things you will be itching to wear the minute the slightest hint of a cool front hints- and actually even a few things you could get away with wearing now.  The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens today for cardholders, (get a card here and shop today) but don’t worry, if you don’t have a card, you can start shopping next Friday!  Mark your calendars to come back here, because I will have more to share!

    At the store yesterday, I found so much to share with you that I’m breaking it into two posts.  I’ll be back tomorrow with the second half.  This post is already super long, so I tried to keep my commentary brief and informative!  Maybe go ahead and pour yourself that mimosa, I’ll wait . . . . .

    Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2017

    Top (XSP) ⋅ Boyfriend Jean Shorts (size down, 24) ⋅ Sandals TTS ⋅ Halogen Leather Cuff Bracelet $38 now, $59 after sale

    First up, I’ve been aching for a new pair of jeans and was specifically excited to try the much-loved AG skinny jeans.  I’ve read the rave reviews about this quality, designer jean with a flattering fit, so that’s one of the first things I reached for! This pair is with a raw hem delivered and will make you look like a skinny mini!  They fit TTS, but of course were a little long on me.  The alterations lady actually said I could just cut the hem at home with scissors so that’s what I plan to do.  Her only tip: be sure to cut a straight line!

    This off-shoulder top sure ups the game on your grandpa’s flannel shirt! It’s super soft and cozy, and the off-shoulder/long sleeves are an awesome combo.  I tried on XS and it fit fine, but the petite would probably be better. It also comes in pink and I think I need that one too! You know I’m going to recommend my all-time favorite strapless bra and I couldn’t believe our good fortune when I saw the PERFECT T-Shirt bra included in the sale.  Remember the one I was giddy to find that’s wireless and seamless with good lift.  Yep, it’s on sale for $39, $60 after the sale.

    AND, my very favorite seamless panties that stay in place all day and are ultra comfortable, so much so that you’ll forget you’re wearing them.  Those panties are in the sale for only $13, $19 after the sale. I’m thrilled to see more colors like pink and aqua- they only had tan, black and brown before.

    Two by Vince Camuto Off Shoulder Plaid Blouse $58 now, $89 after sale ⋅ AG The Legging Raw Hem Ankle Skinny Jean (25, TTS) $149 now, $225 later ⋅ B.P. Tale Slide $49 now, $80 after sale

    Of course I was anxious to try on boots and booties, but this suede slide is one of the pairs of shoes I loved the most.  It fit the most comfortably and the suede is buttery soft.

    Right away I was smitten with the cowl neck sweater vest.  The waffle fabric is thick and the baby pink is really pretty.  It’s got small v-cuts on the side and isn’t the pocket a fun detail? A tight turtleneck isn’t usually my thing, but I love the looser cowl neck style.

  1. Congratulations! This is an honor 100% deserved for how hard you work and your infectious positive attitude 🙂 Can’t wait to see the collection, especially your piece!

  2. Megan — All of the Gibson items say to hand wash and lay flat to dry. Do you find that to be necessary? I have such a hard time making a commitment to that level of care for clothing. Congratulations on this new collaboration!
