Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Haul+ new obsession!


If you have been reading fashion blogs and looking at Instagram lately, you have probably been seeing A LOT of Nordstrom Sale posts and people's personal picks!! Today, instead of showing you my absolute favorites from the sale... I'm going to show you what I actually bought. Of course, I would love a Tory Burch bag or pair of Tory Burch boots, but I bought what I really needed and loved. Let's get into my purchases:

1. Jeans
My wardrobe is transitioning right now! I wore a uniform everyday during high school (not so cute!), so now I'm left with literally 2 pairs of blue jeans. So I thought buying nice jeans while they are on sale and FIT would be a good idea. Plus, Finding jeans that fit my big thighs/butt and proportionally  small waist is always hard. I swear I had a sisterhood of the traveling pants moment....every pair of jeans I tried on fit. I bought 3 pairs of the 'Reese' Jean and one of each of the other pairs!



Halogen Distressed Girlfriend Jeans (reg. 74) // Kut from the Kloth 'Reese' Stretch Straight Leg Ankle Jeans (Encouraging) (reg. 79.50) // Wit & Wisdom 'Super Smooth' Stretch Denim Skinny Jeans (Dark Navy) (reg. 64)


Size & Fit Guide- My Experience:
Halogen Distressed Girlfriend Jeans- I sized about 2 sizes down!! They fit perfectly though!
Kut from the Kloth 'Reese'- I sized one size down from my usual size.
Wit & Wisdom 'Super Smooth'- True to size (for me)!


2. Boots
Love the price and the looks of my NEW Naturalizer all leather boots!
Naturalizer 'Jennings' Knee High Boot (available in brown & wide calf too!) (HERE)
Wide Calf (HERE


3. Rainjacket- (this wasn't on sale BUT I thought the price was great)


My NEW OBSSESSION IS Ebates!! It's a cash back program for online shopping! Of course, I had heard about places like this before (personally always thought they were sketchy), but I was watching a youtuber who was like "if you shop online you HAVE to use this". So I checked it out and next thing you know I have a $25+ check in my mailbox...pretty easy way to get money...even though let's not forget you had to spend some to get it haha! I just thought I'd share the link (HERE)! If you online shop ALL the time like me (i seriously need help haha) you have to check it out!!
