Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Happy Friday! If you haven’t heard Nordstrom is having their huge anniversary sale next week. This sale is amazing since brand new fall pieces will be on sale, and once the sale is over they will go back to their regular price. It is a great time to stock up and shop for fall/winter staples. They will also have a few new summer arrivals included so if shopping for fall items in July isn’t your thing be sure to check this section out, which I will also include in this post.

How to shop:

Early access to the sale starts July 12th. The key to gaining early access is to have a Nordstrom card. Cardholders get to shop the sale early from July 12th- 19th. You can apply for the Nordstrom card here. I recommend shopping early access since these items usually sell out super fast. I know a lot of people don’t like using credit cards for obvious reason, good news is you can apply for the card, be approved, and use your own debit card (not associated with Nordstrom). Being a Nordstrom cardholder allows you to shop early access, however, you can use any method of payment you’d like to make your purchases.

July 20th- August 5th is when the sale opens to the public if you prefer to wait. Either way this sale is going to be SO good. Nordstrom released their preview catalog about a week ago and I have already picked out some things I will definitely be purchasing. I will be linking items here on this post starting July 12th. So if you see something in the catalog you like I will have everything linked here to shop the day of the sale! Just come back to the post and click the items you want, add to your bag, and checkout FAST before its gone. Check out the catalog here. Enjoy!

Holiday Gift Guide- For Her

gift guide

How is Christmas less than 2 weeks away?!? Every year I swear time goes by quicker and quicker! Today I wanted to share a few of my picks that I think would make the perfect gift for your friends, moms, sisters, wives, or any woman in your life. These are products that I have used and loved.

1. Tula Skincare- One of my favorite skincare brands and they have the cutest Holiday sets. The one I have linked here would be perfect for someone just trying Tula, this is suitable for all skin types and their most popular products. Use code ALEXAP for 20% off your entire purchase!

2. Impressions Vanity Makeup Mirror– Just received this mirror in the mail and LOVE!

3. Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray– I have been using this stuff for years and is a holy grail product for me. This keeps my makeup in place all day and helps prevent oil. This set includes 2 full sized bottles for only $42!

4. Purity Facial Cleanser –  I use this to wash all of my makeup off every night. This is the only makeup remover that completely removes all of my makeup without a ton of product.

5. Baublebar Gabriela Tassel Fringe Earrings-– These are such a fun gift & they come in 9 different colors! Perfect stocking stuffer.

6.  Knit Beanie–– Can’t go wrong with this Faux Fur Pompom Beanie. Comes in 2 colors.

7. DIFF Eye wear–– One of my favorite pairs of sunglasses are my DIFF Jessie James Decker sunnies in the pink/gold color. Use code ALEXAP25 for 25% off any pair on their website!

8. CALPAK Luggage Set– 5 color choices and the pretties luggage set! This is such a good gift for anyone. Throw some plane tickets inside and you’re all set 😉 LOL- but really wouldn’t that be the perfect gift?!

9. Tory Burch Miller– I need a pair in every color! So perfect to throw on and are comfy!

10. Over the Knee Boot– These are currently 40% off and come in black and grey. I am in love with my black pair!

11. Perfect Roll Tab Sleeve Tunic – Hands down my absolute favorite top. I have it in almost every color and love how versatile it is. & it is on sale for less than $30!

12. BLANKNYC Suede Moto Jacket-– This is such a great jacket. I have it in the grey color but have been eyeing the spice colored one as well. The spice and the black colors are 40% off right now, which is such a good deal! Snag one while you can.
