WHAT I BOUGHT AT THE NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE

My Size Reference: I’m short (5’1) and I typically wear size 0P/25 jeans, XSP/XS in tops and dresses.

Wit & Wisdom Jeans

LOVE these jeans!!  They’re by Wit & Wisdom and made with that ab solution technology that fits and flatters and comfortably tucks you in.  They have a high waist and a cool, sloping hem.  Plus, the light blue color is pretty! Only $58! I’m wearing a 00

SWEATER VEST

I like this cable knit vest worn alone with jeans, shorts, a skirt or pants, but in the Fall and Winter, it will be easy to layer a long sleeve shirt or button down underneath.  I’m wearing an XS.

RAILS TOP

This is the solid Rails top I ended up getting this year.  I love the color and gauzy texture.  It looks great with dark denim, white and also black.  You can also wear it now with shorts.  It fits TTS, I’m wearing an XS.

PINTUCK CAMISOLE

This cami has a delicately pleated v-neckline that looks dressier under blazers and cardigans than a typical cotton tank. It fits TTS and you can adjust the shoulder straps.  I’m wearing XS.

SPLENDID TEE

I actually got this perfect v-neck tee at a previous NSale, but I love the quality, fit and shape.  It has a feminine fit and a slightly lower dipped v-neck, and it’s super figure flattering on. I’m wearing XS.

FAUX SUEDE JACKET

Three cheers for this buttery soft jacket!  Ali-Shaun and I both got it and it gives you that perfectly chic look while still being incredibly comfortable.  I’m wearing an XS, but plan to exchange for the XXS for a more fitted look.

BAREFOOT DREAMS LONGLINE CARDIGAN

Holy Barefoot Dreams!  I’m CRAZY for this white cardigan and Jordan has already tried to steal it from me!  I tend to like this style over the regular circle cardigan because it’s a little bit lighter weight and comes with the tie belt.  Fits TTS, I’m wearing XS.

ZELLA 7/8 LEGGINGS

You can’t go wrong with these Zella high waist leggings.  They’re everything you want from a legging, including moisture wicking fabric, smooth seams that won’t irritate your skin, side pockets and a little waist pocket.  You can machine wash them and also squat without wondering if you’re undies are showing!  They fit TTS, I wear an XS.

HOODED PULLOVER

Zella’s long sleeve knit tees are in heavy rotation in my closet, but this style with the hoodie and thumb holes is new (for me).  It feels wonderful on your skin and comes in four colors- the pale pink I’m wearing, navy, grey and black. I’m wearing XS.

BOOTS & SHOES

UGG BOOTS

We both bought these relaxed style UGGs that are so comfy and the perfect option for when you want a flat UGG, but don’t want to wear the fur lined ones. They fit TTS.

DOLCE VITA SNEAKER

I got these sneaker for a casual cool look when I don’t want to wear boots and it’s too chilly for flats.  I accidentally ended up with the wrong size, so I need to exchange them.  I’m considering switching to the white but I haven’t decided.  They fit TTS.

NIKE SNEAKERS

These Nikes are a training shoe as opposed to a runner.  I have ran in them a few times though and they did okay.  They aren’t as cushiny as I’m used to in running in, but they’re nice and lightweight and breathable.  In the future, I’ll probably wear them more for weight workouts and classes – as they’re designed for. They fit TTS.

NATORI ROSE T-SHIRT BRA

I got two more of my everyday bra that looks great under t-shirts.  There’s no seaming or lace on the cups, so they lay super smooth and undetectable under even your thinnest tops.  The lace shoulder straps keep it pretty, but they’re also a comfortable width.  They fit TTS.

MULTISTRAND NECKLACE

This necklace is so pretty in person – 4 delicate strands on 1 clasp and there’s tiny bits of bling in it!

WATCH STRAP

Y’all! I’m so crazy for this gorgeous Michele apple watch strap!  I chose the black and it’s STUNNING! I love how it dresses the watch up, but looks good also worn casually!

  1. Your nails look so pretty! What color polish are you wearing in that last photo with the Michele Apple watch?

    1. Thank you! I just got them done, but I got a dip powder so I don’t recall the name, there was a number and I’ll try to find it when I go back. This color is very similar to my favorite Lisbon Wants Moor by OPI.

    1. Thanks Kimmy! That bracelet is a cherished gift from my Grandma Nola- I’ve had it for years, it’s traditional Hawaiian jewelry and says my name on the other side. I wish I had a link for it!
