At the time I'm writing this post, there are already 35,819 Instagram posts with the hashtag #nsale - that's right, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale kicks off today (to the general public, cardholders got early access) and the fashion blogosphere is in a frenzy to shop and capitalize on this annual event. Truth be told, I've never shopped the sale. Nordstrom came on the scene sometime when I was a teenager and when we'd take the trek up to the north shore of Chicago to the fancy mall, I always felt like an outsider and Nordstrom embodied everything I didn't have (ya know, like money). I know, I know, cue the violins, right? Poor me.
But a lot has changed since then, I'm a grown a$$ woman, dammit, and I can and will shop at Nordstrom. I will not be left out this time, ladies! I may be slightly intimidated but I'm heading to my nearest Nordstrom store to check out the deals...here's what I'll be looking for, but who knows, being 21 weeks pregnant may effect what I ultimately purchase. Join me on my consumerist adventure via Instagram. I promise to report back and share my experience and what I bought here on the blog. And if you've shopped or plan to shop the sale, let me know what you're loving/buying, too!
