Listen up, Stitch Fix lovers, there’s a new service in town and they’re a force to be reckoned with! They go by the name of Fashom. They’re a wallet friendly styling service with handpicked clothing right to your door! Free shipping + returns and NO SUBSCRIPTION! Make sure to sign up through the link below for $10 off your first box. For each box ordered, Fashom also donates $1 to Second Chance Rescue NYC.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Sign up here –> https://invite.fashom.com/ZQpArQTXC0 and fill out a styling profile. You can even video chat with your stylist to communicate exactly what you want! The styling fee is $20 but goes towards your purchase (first styling fee is free!)
  2. Your stylist will send you items to review and you’ll then pick the five you want sent to your door.
  3. Try on your items. Keep what you love and send back the rest in the prepaid envelope enclosed. Keep 3 or 4 items and receive a 25% discount. Keep all 5 items and receive 30% off the entire box!

I requested a box full of fall/leopard print items and here’s what I got: 

Natural Life Dolman Top – $38 & Just Black Skinny Jeans – $60

71900927_1245153215687448_6435350727404552192_n.jpg[Mules]

Love X 2!!! I immediately fell in love with this dolman top and pair of distressed black jeans. I was so excited to see a pair of Just Black jeans included because they’re one of my favorite denim brands out there!

VERDICT: Both Kept!


Naked Zebra Dress – $42

71547078_1245152829020820_9001525250755657728_n.jpg[BP ScarfBooties]

This dress was so lovely!!! Easily dress it up for Fall or wear it alone in the warmer months. Unfortunately, I’m just not a dress person and can’t see myself reaching for it so back it went.

VERDICT: Returned.


Le Amis Leopard Cardigan – $42

72623092_1245153482354088_9030331695194177536_n.jpg[MulesTee]

For those that know me, know that I’m obsessed with leopard print!! My closet is seriously looking like a scene out of the Lion King these days. This circle cardigan was clearly a no brainer.

VERDIT: Kept.


Mittoshop Leopard Skirt – $43

71941034_1245155872353849_730590287990095872_n.jpg[Mules]

This leopard skirt was too cute! I don’t know when I would wear it though so unfortunately it went back.

Verdict: Returned.


FINAL THOUGHTS: My entire box would have cost $229 but with the 30% discount, the total would be $160. I ended up keeping three items for a total cost of $108 with the 25% off discount. Overall, I’m very pleased with this service. I found them to be affordable, good quality, and listened to what I had asked for. Has anyone else tried this service? What do you think?

Amazon - Hits & Misses (3)

I’ve been doing a lot of shopping on Amazon these days because one word…prime. Free 2 day shipping (and now some items have one day shipping!) and returns is really a no brainer. Now, clothes shopping on Amazon can be so hit or miss. I like to call these either an #amazonwin or #failazon. I’m rounding up my most recent Amazon purchases into these two categories and hope it helps you with all your “prime” shopping.

#Amazonwin

Criss Cross Top // Vince Camuto Booties

Amazon Fashion{Top (size up, wearing size small) // Jeans (TTS) // Booties (TTS)}

“Criss Cross will make you jump jump, the Dad Mac will make you jump jump” Kriss Kross anyone? I have a serious obsession with all things criss cross (including the song!) This is a for sure winner in my book!


#Failazon

Raincoat

68388436_1203876649815105_7162865728616398848_n.jpgRaincoat

This raincoat is absolutely adorable and it’s only a fail because it was too long on my 5’1″ shrimpy frame. 


#Amazonwin

Plaid Top //  Vince Camuto Booties

Amazon FashionPlaid Top // Jeans // Booties

For some reason, plaid flannel tops are hard to come by this season. Usually there’s a cornucopia to choose from (how do you like that fall word?) but, I haven’t seen much this year. So, I turned to amazon and loved this one even though I look like I’m about to cut down a tree.


#Failazon

Leopard Dress

Amazon FailsDress

Welp. So many bloggers look adorable in this dress but it was a like a circus tent on me 🙁


#Amazonwin

Pumpkin Top // Vince Camuto Booties

69205422_1206703876199049_8576516289533575168_n.jpgTop (size up, wearing size S) // Jeans (TTS) // Boots (TTS)

This pumpkin tee is just perfect for all those glorious fall activities!


#Failazon

Jumpsuit

68367275_1205370236332413_346868001275904000_n.jpgJumpsuit

Somebody put this genie’s leg back in the bottle. #yikes


#Amazonwin

Kimono

IMG_8377.JPGKimono// Jeans (TTS)// Necklace // Boots (TTS)

Umm, if this kimono doesn’t scream FALL than I don’t know what does! Love, love, love!


#Amazonwin

Dress

69863118_1225057384363698_2320972972111691776_n.jpgDress // Wedges 60% off! TTS)

This dress is drop dead gorgeous!!! It’s already on sale and there might be an extra coupon to clip as well. I’m wearing this in an xs which is a size down from what I normally wear in dresses.


#Failazon

Faux Fur Vest

IMG_9279.jpgFaux Fur Vest

This was another one I wanted to work so badly but it was just too big on me. I have narrow shoulders so the sides “poofed” out a bit more than my liking.


#Amazonwin

Leopard Cardigan

70118541_1221336131402490_2252271413979250688_n.jpgCardigan // Tank (TTS, wearing xs) // Jeans ( TTS, wearing 4 petite) // Booties (TTS)

This cardigan was “spot on”. It was the perfect length for my 5’1″ frame and the spacing of the spots was perfect! Size up. I’m in a small and normally wear xs.


#Amazonwin

Crossbody

IMG_8410.jpgCrossbody

Perfect color for fall and super affordable! What more could you ask for?


#Failazon

Leopard Top

IMG_9292.JPGLeopard Top

I look like I’m about to ask Al Bundy for some money in this top. Normally, I’m all about the leopard print but this one just didn’t do it for me.


#Amazonwin

Camo Tee

70754618_1225041227698647_1798301591359455232_n.jpg

Tee (TTS, wearing xs) // Jeans (size up, wearing 6 short. 25% off!) // Sneakers  (TTS. On sale in most sizes!)

My love for camo isn’t slowing down anytime soon!


#Amazonwin

Boots

69214744_1213695782166525_5037786098911150080_n.jpgBoots

Guys, these boots are not only adorable but they have a zipper to hold your credit cards!! So comfy too! Make sure to size down 1/2 size.


#Amazonwin

Necklaces

IMG_9291.JPG

You guys. This pack of necklaces includes EIGHT necklaces for a steal!!! Now, they’re obviously not the best quality but for this price, they’ll do just fine.


#Failazon

Magnetic Liner/ Lashes

lash.PNG

I saved the best (or worst?) for last. These magnetic lashes/liner though…no, just no.


Aaaaand there you have it! Don’t be fooled though. My fails may be your wins and my wins may not work for you. We’re all different and that’s the beauty of this World!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
{TopShortsSandals}

It’s Christmas in July! The Nordstrom Anniversary is my absolute favorite sale of the year and it’s approaching faster than a Kardashian can get divorced. I’ve learned a lot about this sale over the past couple of years so, here’s everything you need to know including important dates, tips, and tricks for shopping the sale!

*This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, please see disclaimer*


IMPORTANT DATES

2.PNG

The sale begins for Nordstrom cardholders on July 12, 2019 at 12:30 pm EST and will be open to the public beginning on July 19, 2019. I know that some people don’t like credit cards but in my opinion, it’s worth signing up for in order to get early access. Things go FAST and many items will be sold out by the time the sale is open to the public. Last year things weren’t restocked for public access so having a card is key.  It’s important to note that you don’t have to actually USE the credit card in order to get access on July 12, you just need to have one. Prices will go up August 6.



SIGN UP FOR A NORDSTROM CREDIT CARD

Capture.PNG

Right now, if you sign up for a card, you will receive a $60 Nordstrom note (which is free money) when you make a purchase upon approval. This is $20 more than last year! You can spend ANY amount and still receive the note!  Since shopping early is the only way to ensure you’ll get the items you want, having the card is key! Sign up for a card here.

IMPORTANT INFO

  • The items that will be available for sale are all NEW women’s fall items! The sale will also include home decor, kids, mens, jewelry, and beauty!
  • You will be allowed to use your “triple points” days during the sale.
  • Popular brands that are typically part of the sale include Barefoot DreamsCaslon, BornVince CamutoHalogenUgg, Blondo and much more!
  • The catalog is available to browse browse now but I never find the catalog very impressive. The catalog mostly shows high end pieces and the sale typically includes much better/ more affordable items. Browse here.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale



TIPS & TRICKS

  • Shop early! It’s best to shop as soon as the sale goes live which once again will be July 12, 2019 at 12:30 pm EST.
  • Nordstrom does not save stock to be released throughout the sale but you can keep checking back for restocks on popular items as returns come back.
  • Shop online! The stores can be crowded and the selection can be extremely limited. More importantly, who likes shopping while wearing pants anyways? #notthisgirl
  • Hit “checkout” immediately! Since everything is free shipping, I suggest checking out every time you place something in your cart in order to avoid the item getting sold out.
  • Most importantly, follow me on facebook! I will be posting like a mad woman throughout the sale. I also plan on ordering a bunch of items to review and post styling ideas. Make sure to follow me here. I will also be doing several giveaways throughout the day 🙂

Second to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, the half-yearly is the happiest time of the year! This is the magical time of year when the bigwigs decide to take pity on us shoppers and slash their prices up to 75% off! The sale can be overwhelming so I dug through an obscene amount of pages (#ineedalife) and put together a few top picks separated into categories.
