Hey Lovelies! I spent the entire night perusing the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale for beauty products I want to add to my makeup bag and ended up with so many products in my cart Le Boyfriend made me delete the cart and pick my top 10 items.  I snuck one more in for good measure though.  Even though I get a lot of products from beauty brands, there are a few of them I have not worked with but itching to try.  For fall, I am leaning toward neutral makeup with a soft, subtle glow.  My makeup picks are leaning towards that fresh off a vacay glow. Most of my picks aren't really on sale but I couldn't help but snag them.

I have heard great things about the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation and I love that it comes in darker shade for women of color.  I tried the a few Charlotte Tilbury product and fell in love. The Matte Revolution Luminous Modern-Matte Lipstick formula is to die for and I can't wait to try the Glastonberry shade. I've only tried Tom Ford nail polishes but I can't wait to get my claws on the Cream & Powder Eye Color in Paradiso. I'm drooling over the glittering gold shimmer.

Hourglass has been a favorite of mine for a few years but I have never tried the Mineral Veil Primer. I've been reading good things about micro-current facials but these can run upwards of $200 per session at a facialist.  The NUFACE® 'Trinity®' Facial Trainer Kit + Trinity Eye & Lip Enhancer Attachment is a definite splurge, however, it makes sense to try the at-home micro-current treatment because financially it's more feasible. Check out more of my favorite beauty lust list below, including items from Le Labo, Deborah Lippmann, GlamGlow, MAC Cosmetics and Laura Mercier.

There are only three (3) days left for early access shopping for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.  I hope card holders have been grabbing the unbeatable sales deals before the sale opens to the public.  Again, this is your chance to nab pre-fall merchandise at steep discounts. I know it's only July so the thought of cold weather wear is far out of your mind but c'mon this sale is unreal.

I created my wish list of coats and dresses I'm lusting after. Make sure to check those out here and here.  Now here is my list of accessories to fill in the gaps in my closet.  I really need some over the knee boots and a block heel sandals I can wear for evenings out so the Dolce Vita Hendricks Studded Heel fits that bill.  Shop my picks below.

It's no secret! I'm a sucker for dresses.  In fact, I didn't have any pants in my closet until this summer when I got some NYDJ jeans (that I live in) and some rompers from Eloquii.  Dresses are my go to simply because they are effortless and I don't need to think so hard about coordinating my outfits.  With that said, we're in the thick of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Access for card holders and I am eyeing some dresses that will fill in the gaps in my closet.

What I am looking for in particular are dresses to transition from late summer to early fall, brunch outfits one or two sheath dresses for client meetings and one or two items I can wear for parties.  I am crushing on the pleated velvet dress here. Early access for the #NSale goes until July 20th, then opens to the general public until August 6th.  Shop my fall coat picks here.

It's finally here! The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale kicked off last Thursday for cardholders with deep discounts on brand new merchandise until July 20th.  Don't fret if you aren't a card carrying member. You'll still get access to discounts when the sale opens to the general public July 21st until August 6th.  It's your chance to get your hands on pre-fall clothing, shoes and accessories.  Nothing is off limits.  You can even stock up on your beauty favorites.  It has been my mom's favorite sale for years and sure enough, the NSale has quickly become a favorite of mine as well.

So what am I shopping for this year? I have my sights on a few coats to update my cold weather closet, some dresses and separates for work and date nights and accessories to breath some life into my wardrobe. Check out my favorite coats from the Nordstrom #NSALE Early Access below.
