The Nordstrom Anniversary sale is here! 🛍️ Do I l The Nordstrom Anniversary sale is here! 🛍️

Do I love this sale? 
Yes? 
Am I going to be sharing a 100 must have items from the sale that you need to shop? 
No!!

I browse this sale every year and create a wishlist! When it comes time to actually shop, that’s when I narrow down my purchases and decide what I actually want. Some years I buy something and other years I skip it. 

I will say that when I do buy something in the sale, it ends up being one of my favorite things and gets worn or used all the time. These are some of my favorite things that I own and love that are included in the sale this year!
