Well guys, I went back for round two of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale - early access goes until July 19! Here's what I got mostly under $45 with the exception of the shoes. After I placed my initial order, I got notified that both the Topshop rose cardigan and the Kut step-hem jeans were sold out (BUMMER), so I decided to fill in the gaps and scoop up a few more items. I'm still tempted to get a new coat for the season - which pieces are you loving this year??

Lots of you are asking what my favorite budget buys are for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale so I wanted to dedicate a post to this cardigan! I never really used to buy things in multiples until I discovered it. But let me tell you, it is THAT good. Checks all the boxes: Comfy, cozy, and looks good with everything.

The 2018 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Access kicked off today for cardholders and I just placed a HUGE order! But, I promise it won't scare you or give you a serious case of FOMO.

Wondering if you can wear denim overalls and not look like a toddler? The answer is yes! Sarah Jessica Parker shows us how it's done, pairing her overalls with a simple top, then cuffing her jeans just enough to show off her Swedish Hasbeens. While you'd probably get a lot of wear out of the real-deal clogs (as does SJP), I found a great dupe for half the price. The actress completed her look with a leather backpack for a day of sightseeing in Rome. I'm feeling inspired to give this look a try for my own summer outings, too!

Hope everyone had a great 4th of July holiday week! This week I'm inspired by getting outdoors and scooping up summer styles on major sale. Enjoy the summer while it lasts!
