I absolutely love The Anniversary Sale at Nordstrom. It is an excuse to update my closet at bargain prices and just an overall happy feeling to be able to score the items (hey sometimes it feels like you won the lottery when you get the most wanted items). Here, in Canada, our sale dates do not align with the US market so we had to wait a few days before we could shop. Although this kinda sucks, at the same time, it allowed me to watch all the reviews and make my list based on what I saw on real people and their honest opinions. After speaking with my SA and learning that we are getting much less inventory than the States, I was still able to buy most of the items on my wanted list. I’m sharing below what I got and how I styled it.
Treasure and Bond V-Neck Sweater in size Small. Colour Oatmeal. FTTS. I’m also wearing jeans that are included in the #Nsale - WIT & WISDOM Ab-Solution Skinny Jeans - wearing size 4. These do stretch out so I’d size down. Perfect for Petites. And of course - how could I say No to the Steve Madden Booties. Surprisingly pretty comfortable and FTTS.
Free People Natasha Ruffle Sleeve Top. Size Small. Colour Black. FTTS - a bit of a tight fit though.
Reiss Penny Rib Split Sleeve Dress. Size Medium. Colour Oatmeal. It is slightly big on me, but maybe it will go down a size once I put it in the dryer
VINCE Merino Wool Blend Longline Cardigan. Size Small. Colour Grey. This definitely runs big - so size down. I would have if an XS was available to purchase. Having a bit of mixed feelings about this one - not sure if I’ll keep it.
Barefoot Dreams CozyChic Lite Circle Cardigan. Size X-S/S. Colour Carbon/Black Heather
Skincare and make up items
Coola Suncare Home & Away Pina Colada. I’m a fan of their creme line so I’ve actually never tried the spray sunscreens by this brand but I’ve read good reviews so looking forward to use these on my upcoming vacation.
Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm. I saw enough of reviews to decide to purchase this cleanser. As if I don’t have enough already 😂. I used it for the first time last night and I’m pretty impressed with how soft and hydrated my face felt in the morning.
Bobbi Brown Full Size Crushed Lipstick and Gloss Set. I got this for my mom as she really likes her Bobbi Brown lipsticks.
Items I’m waiting on to get delivered.
Natori Cherry Blossom Convertible Underwire Bra - I bought the dark grey in store and absolutely loved it. Ordered the other two colours as well.
Longchamp Le Pliage Expandable Tote in the Gunmetal colour. I used to be a fan of the Le Pliage Totes but I find that the wear and tear on these isn’t as great as many praise. The corners rip after a year so you end up wearing a tote with little holes in its corners and to me, that’s such a turn off. I got this tote for travel purposes so I’m not sure if I’ll actually keep it. Still deciding….
Voluspa Maison Set of 5 Tin Candles. I’ve been a long fan of the Voluspa candles but I haven’t smelled any of the ones included in this bundle. Hopefully these smell as amazing as their Santiago Huckleberry scent.
Zella High Waist Studio Lite Pocket 7/8 Leggings - I tried on size S in store but they seemed too small and I’m not sure why I didn’t just try on size M in the store but decided to order M online and see how they fit.
Kids and Baby Items I got
1. Uggs Kids’ Classic 11 Glitz Bootie
2. Nordstrom Chloe Mesh Flat. Great value for indoor school shoes.
3. Treasure and Bond Kids’ Diamond Quilted Puffer Jacket. Looks very chic on.
Not pictured but also came home with me
Nike MD Valiant Sneaker. I was a bit hesitant about the colour, however these look so stylish on our daughter and she absolutely loved them. I reordered these in a bigger size for when she outgrows her pair.
Tucker +Tate Kids’ Animal Ear Hoodie. I’m not 100% I’d recommend this, as I find that the quality of these hoodies is not so great but they are so cute!!
Nordstrom Assorted 3-Pack Fitted Crib Sheets. These are such a steal! You end up paying $12 for one sheet and the quality seems great. They are not buttery soft but soft enough!
Lastly, what I didn’t get as it sold out
Of course, the barefoot blanket 😂. But maybe this is a blessing in disguise as the price on this blanket is insane. Is it really worth it? 🤔💁♀️
