Highlights: Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Currently Listening: Four Kicks -Kings of Leon

Every July Nordstrom hosts its annual Anniversary Sale which introduces all their Fall and Winter merchandise. Exclusive Nordstrom shoppers get the opportunity to pre-sale all of their must have items in the beginning of July to assure they will have their hands on the newest "it" items long before the leaves start falling! I visited Nordstrom earlier this month and I got to have a sneak peak, but I was only impressed with a few pieces...

First off we'll take a look at my favorite shoes from the sale:

The only thing I bought from the entire sale were the Trouve ankle boots in a faded black color that was not pictured online. The tan color above was super cute too, but I do not have a pair of black boots so I decided to get a timeless color rather than a trendy one.

Next the clothes!

My favorite piece from the entire sale was the Line 'Logan' Patchwork Knit Cardigan. I cannot even begin to explain how unbelievably comfortable it was not to mention the absolute cutest cardigan I have ever seen. Why you may ask did I not just purchase it if I cannot stop raving about it? Well only reaching a height of 5'2 the cardigan overwhelmed my tiny frame and frankly didn't look so stellar on me for spending $230 of my hard earned money.

Lastly Skincare and Beauty Products...

I was most excited about the NARS 'Hopelessly Devoted' Set because I was never a huge fan of Orgasm Blush by NARS but I have recently discovered Deep Throat Blush. Deep Throat, despite the raunchy name, is a beautiful light peach with gold reflex which is perfect for my pale skin tone. Even though I have been looking for this exclusive duo for a while now, I could not fathom spending $53 when I don't even want the two lip glosses that are included. I have heard only great things about Mario Badescu's Drying Lotion from not only my favorite YouTube beauty gurus but a few of friends. However I didn't purchase the set, but I can recommend it from its great reviews! I have been wanting the Clarisonic Mia as well as the Clinique 3-Step Skin Care System for a while so I am going to ask for the Clarisonic Mia for my birthday in September and buy the 3-Step Skin Care System with my money in the next few weeks before the sale ends!

What were your favorites from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale? Comment and let me know!
