August is already in full swing, but I’m sure some of you still have weddings to attend! Dressing for a wedding can be difficult, as there are so many different rules and etiquette to follow. The categories below cover the majority of wedding attire dress codes.
Pardon my recent hiatus, but Summer is a doozy and it’s already August! I can’t even deal. This month is a busy one for me and probably, also for the rest of you. I am in no way ready to say good-bye to Summer, BUT I have added a few items to my wardrobe from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale that I can wear now AND in the Fall. This is going to be my last post about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale this year and it’s a good one. I’m sure you have picked up your most-wanted items, but I’ve rounded up items that are still in stock AND under $100, including my perfectly-fitted Halogen No-Closure Blazer and Chelsea28 Lace Top.
Ok friends, I hope you are not sick of hearing about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale yet because it ain’t ending anytime soon! But fear not, I have been hard at work preparing the BEST blog post for you. And by hard at work, I mean shopping, returning, more shopping, etc.

Manolo Blahnik 105 mm BB pumps
Prada Saffiano Cuir tote in Cammeo (Prada store can find it for you – but the leather tote is also a favorite)
This look is FINALLY up and it’s a good one. I adore this Ann Taylor Paper Bag Skirt, which comes in both chambray and seersucker. The material is comfortable and does not wrinkle much. I also love the bow! It’s a great paper bag waist style, without being too much of a paper bag! This skirt is currently on sale at Ann Taylor, with an additional 50% off. That makes it less than $40! There are a few sizes left online, but I always recommend popping into the Ann Taylor stores. At least around the DC and Virginia area, the Ann Taylors are always stocked. My favorite one is at Market Common Clarendon.
The day is finally here! It’s pretty much Christmas Morning when the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale rolls around. If you have never heard of/experienced the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, let me give you the deets. Every July, Nordstrom debuts Fall items, including exclusive designer pieces, home furnishings, and beauty sets, made especially for the sale. The items are discounted throughout the sale and they go back to full price when the sale ends. While it is sweltering in the DMV these days and I CANNOT even begin to think about how Summer is wrapping up and the Fall is nearing, I love grabbing some Fall fashion staples at a great price.
