Ahh its vacation time and if you are anything like me it’s all about packing efficiently (and hopefully light)! With that being said, you always want to be prepared. For me that means having one bag… yes you heard me, one bag that can do it all! No matter where you are traveling this August a crossbody is a must. In the city? Hello! Wow are you going to carry your ice coffee and take a selfie without a crossbody bag!? At the beach!? Carrying towels, coolers and chairs…crossbody all the way!
Can you believe it is the last day of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?!? Time flies, especially during the summer. Now is your last chance to pick out your must-have items at an incredible price. I rounded up my favorite picks from various categories but make sure to browse the website before checking out. You never know what you might find! This is the ideal time to get ahead of the game and start your fall shopping; You know you are going to need a new coat and a pair of boots so why not get them now while they’re on sale?!? This is also the best time of year to shop for summer gear and sunnies so make sure to check out my favorite swimsuits and coverups below! Happy shopping and I hope you find some great looks, make sure to tag me on social media so I can see what you found! (I just found this pleated skirt so plan on seeing me wearing this quite a bit in the fall and winter)!
I believe that the duster is here to stay! For a moment, I thought it might be a temporary trend but the duster is back this season! It’s actually a fab way to dress up any look. You all know how much I love a denim jacket but sometimes it’s nice to jazz things up a bit with a fun alternative such as a duster. Many dusters are light enough to wear on a summer evening and “cool”enough to wear as more of a blazer look during the fall.
Ahhh the jean jacket, another wardrobe staple since the beginning of time (well…at least since the beginning of denim). lol. This is a “Kristen must-have” (I’m wearing a jean jacket around my waist as I write this post). A white jean jacket is a nice addition to your summer/spring wardrobe. Wear a pair of blue jeans, a solid tee, pop on a white denim jacket and your ready to hit the town! Below are my favorite denim jackets currently on sale! Get them now while they are on sale. Trust me, you will be happy! The minute summer is over, a jean jacket is a great go-to when it’s a little chilly outside. It’s really the perfect transitional jacket!
West coast vibes today! Spending August in LA with the family and having lunch today at my fave place in the Malibu country mart, Cafe Habana! The best thing about summer style is it’s effortless and easy! This is the perfect casual chic meets Malibu beach outfit! Still in need of shorts? No worries! See my favorite shorts and linen/blend button ups on sale! (P.S the shorts I’m wearing are on sale for $31!!).
I am a blazer gal through and through and guess what? You can’t go wrong wearing a black blazer; a must have item in everyones closet. This is another one of those wardrobe staples I always talk about. You can dress a blazer up by pairing it with slacks or dress it down by wearing jeans and slides. The possibilities are endless but it all comes down to owning at least one good blazer. I love this blazer from J.Crew! It’s a great price point, really good quality and it will last you for many years to come. The best part about it? It’s on sale! There are just a few more days left of the amazing Nordstrom sale so make sure to make the most of it! Prime blazer weather is right around the corner so might as well start getting ready for fall! Below are my favorite blazers:
Take your outfit to the next level wearing a perfect pair of gold hoops! Hoops are my go-to daily accessory even though I do love a classic pair of diamond stud earrings. I am also all about statement earrings, especially those with a pop of color! Here are some of my favorite earrings currently part of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!
