The Transitional Dress

We love to plan out our lives in agendas and iPhone calendars, but what about our wardrobes? We want to take advantage of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale while it's still here, and the best way is to plan ahead - get pieces now that will still be wearable as the seasons change. 

Meet the transitional dress. If you have a few in your closet you know how valuable they are! These are the dresses you can wear in the summer and then throw on a denim jacket or a pair of leggings and enjoy in fall, too!

Check out these sale dresses that you'll be wearing for months to come!

A Backyard to Live In

Hanging out on patios may be as outdoorsy as you get, and we totally understand. We've created a guide to make that the most awesome experience ever - your backyard will be the envy of the whole neighborhood. Check out our picks for the perfect patio for outdoor fun!

Gather Round

Let's start with the obvious - everyone needs a place to sit! A great table and set of chairs are a must for outdoor entertaining. 

Hanging Out

Want to get a little creative with your seating? Add a hammock to the mix! Hammocks are super popular these days and give off a relaxed vibe.


Warm Fuzzies

When the weather cools off, that doesn't mean your patio days need to be over. Keep a cute basket full of warm blankets by the door to bust out when it's 'smores season.


Feels Like Home

Bring the inside, outside! Add some charm and to your space with outdoor rugs and pillows.


A Little Extra

String lights, outdoor glasses and speakers create and even more festive space!

First things first: Check out our amazing offer from GMA Deals & Steals! Our pave initial necklaces are only $14!!! They are sterling silver or 14K gold fill with real CZ stone pave...and yours for 65% off!

Bags are like friends...each one is unique, has its special purpose in your life, and you can never have too many.

And it's great when they are under $150, too.

Ok, that part of our analogy doesn't quite fit. But the point is this - all of these bags from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale are under $150 and all of them are begging to be a part of your wardrobe:

Wrap me up....in a discounted sweater


Amy is my name and ponchos and sweaters are my game. 
Seriously, it's almost embarrassing how many I own and how often I wear them. 
During the Nordstrom sale each year I buy ponchos and sweaters with the likeness of chipmunks storing nuts for winter. 



I am obsessed with this and while it's discounted by $125, it's' still pricey. 
Still, I may "need" it.

DEAL ALERT! 
Everyone single one of you needs a long cardigan. It's ideal for those days you need to pull it together but don't want to make much effort. 
You simply can't beat this price AND is comes in 7 colors.

Could this be any cuter? I think not. And, it's only $64 during the sale. 
Plus, it comes in 3 colors...but the blue and ivory are my faves.

Speaking of stocking up, here is a round-up of more favorites.
