9 Mom Friendly Fall Outfits from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

July 20, 2019 by Katie Haller

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opened to the public this weekend, and so that means the normal non-cardholders, like myself, are welcome to shop the sale.  Now I know I polled my followers on Instagram and many of them said they are not shopping the NSale and they don’t care to hear about it.  I can respect that.  I know that if you follow any other bloggers besides me, you know this sale is a little overdone.  I myself don’t typically shop the NSale, because to be honest, I don’t stop just because there is a sale.  I try to only shop for things that I really want and  I’ve been eyeing for a while.  This doesn’t mean I don’t like to browse the sale.  Every year I spend hours browsing through the Nordstrom App and other bloggers’ blog posts to see what the most popular items are.  Sometimes I spend so much time browsing and eyeing the sale that I end up buying one or two things, but I try to make sure that it’s something from my “shopping list”.  I usually pick out items that I will wear and love for years to come.

I have always loved cardigan sweaters. Lately I’ve been wearing them buttoned up, which is an easy way to update the style and wear it in a new way!
