Nordstrom Anniversary SALE Essentials!

I don’t know why I haven’t started every Nordstrom Anniversary Sale with this post!!!! If there is anything to buy during a SALE (any sale), it’s the staples/essentials!!!! You know you need them, so why not save money on them?! I know this, like know, know this, so WHY HAVE I NEVER THOUGHT TO DO THIS BEFORE?!?!?! Let’s just call this moment of genius the silver lining to Corona. I’m starting off with the ESSENTIALS, as in the BARE essentials!

Plus, most of us know our size in all of these essentials, so no need for try-on sessions in these (because that would just be awkward)! Oh, and lots of *CHRISTMAS PRESENT* ideas are in this post, too!!! At the bottom of the post after the bare essentials… obviously -ha!

I don’t know about you, but I have been very particular about my bare essentials lately. Staying at home has me very particular about the comfort of the items closest to my skin- my bras, undies, and pj’s. Maybe ’cause I’m in them all the time!!! But, I’m super stoked because ALL of my FAVORITE BARE NECESSITIES ARE ON SALE!!!


My NEW favorite comfy bra is on SALE! And by comfy, I mean no underwire! This is the perfect work from home bra! Ok, I’ve worn it out a ton of places, too. It’s just so comfortable, I can’t help it. I ordered it after reading the reviews, and I’m so pleased with it. It has replaced my old favorite Gap bras because it has the slightest bit of padding, which helps when I get cold. If you catch my drift (pun intended!).True & Co. Bralette  4.4 out of 5 stars (357 reviews)


My favorite ALL COTTON undies are on SALE!!! In years past, I ordered the wrong ones (only the gusset was cotton). These are ALL COTTON, and I love them!!!! They don’t ride up or give me a wedgie in the middle of the night. I buy them in a size medium because I don’t like tight undies.Natori Cotton Undies  4.8 out of 5 stars (738 reviews)


My very favorite, very supportive, works on almost ALL clients underwire bra is ON SALE!!! One thing I like about this bra is, though its super supportive, it’s not too grandma looking. Nothing against grandmas, it’s just that this one feels very feminine while still being supportive.Natori Bra. 4.6 out of 5 stars (3.1K reviews)


My very favorite strapless, underwire bra is on SALE. Once I was introduced to this strapless bra, I’ve never deviated. Because honestly, I don’t know how you can get a better underwire bra. It’s super supportive, DOES NOT slide down and comfortable (for a strapless that is)!Wacoal Bra. 4.7 out of 5 stars (1.3K reviews)


If I have to wear a thong (gosh, Corona has really gotten to me), these are the ones I reach for time and time again. The reason I like these particular thongs is because sometimes I forget I’m wearing a thong when I have these on. And you know that’s saying something. Plus, they have a cotton gusset, which makes them breathable. And you really can’t see a panty line- not even in workout leggings.Hanky Panky Lace Thong regular rise/low rise. 4.8 out of 5 stars (346 reviews)


I bought a pair of these for myself, and I loved them so much I bought them as *CHRISTMAS PRESENTS*!  They have the softest fluffy fleece lining! My boys love to put their hands in the socks because they are so soft.  Surprisingly, my feet don’t sweat, and I don’t slip around when I’m wearing them.Ugg Pompom Fleece Lined Socks.  4.6 out of 5 stars (272 reviews)

I love them so much, I might try these UGG socks to wear with my booties/high tops to get that bunched look at the top. Yes, I love that look. These UGG slippers are a great deal, too. Both of these would make great *CHRISTMAS PRESENTS*, too.


Are y’all sick of hearing me talk about my new favorite pajama’s yet? But y’all, I’ve been a die hard fan of a certain pair of pajamas for over 10 years until I met (yes, met… I feel the introduction of pajamas is something personal -ha!) these pajamas!! If you need new jammies, or if you are looking to try something new, you won’t be disappointed with these. These would also make great *CHRISTMAS PRESENTS*!Moonlight Dream Pajamas

They also come in all these styles as well:


I wear my Barefoot Dreams Cardigan so much, it has holes. I’m thinking most of you reading this know about the unbelievable invention that changed the whole sweater industry, the Barefoot Dreams Cardigan. It’s like nothing else. You put it on and you know you’ll never find anything softer. It’s a great time to by a replacement, or this would make a great *CHRISTMAS PRESENT*!!! I’ve given so many of these as Christmas presents, I’ve lost count.Barefoot Dreams CozyChic Cardigan   4.7 out of 5 stars (3.1K reviews)

Here’s some other great style available:


Although I do not own this robe, I want it, so I thought I’d include it. I don’t have a fleece-lined robe, and this one has 5 stars. I’m totally sold. Plus, my Barefoot Dreams cardigan doesn’t cover my chest, and sometimes I need it covered. I think this will be the perfect solution! Plus, I’m constantly in my pjs these days, and I can just add this on top for extra coverage.

Fleece Robe.  4.8 out of 5 stars (46 reviews)


I love my regular UGG slippers, but this one looks significantly less clunky!!! These slippers would also make great *CHRISTMAS PRESENTS*!

UGG Flufette Slippers. 4.4 out of 5 stars (50 reviews)


Oh, and just in case you are looking for some joggers (who’s not looking for joggers at this point -ha!), here are my favorites from the SALE:


In the past, I’ve saved this post for the last of my #NSale posts. What was I thinking?! Well, I’m running on all cylinders now! It only took 7 years and Corona times -ha!

Now, if you don’t look at any other #NSale post I share, you’re good! This is where all the essentials are!

My first visit to a Kips Bay Decorator Show House My first visit to a Kips Bay Decorator Show House (@kbshowhouse ) did not disappoint! Wow! Wow! Wow! There are so many talented artists/designers in this world, and to be able to experience and be fully immersed in so many of their creations in one place was a really neat experience!! I highly recommend, if you have not been. Their show in Dallas is open through November 13th.

Do you want new hair growth in your eyebrows? I ha Do you want new hair growth in your eyebrows? I have a trick, and no, it’s not an expensive hair growth serum! It’s Castor Oil, so it’s all natural and inexpensive. Apparently, it’s been used for thousands of years dating back to ancient Egypt. Ok, and I use it on my eyelashes, too, but I’m doing that at my own risk. I don’t want to recommend this practice, since I don’t really know what it’s going to do to my eyesight. I know, call me crazy- it’s fine. 

Thanks to my friend, Michelle for telling me about this little trick!

I attended a funeral today of a friend who died of I attended a funeral today of a friend who died of mental illness. If my friend is strong enough to stand at the podium and talk about her husband and the hope her family has in the midst of their darkest days, then I want to honor both of them by telling you about my struggle with mental illness. My friend mentioned that many of her husband’s closest friends had no idea that he’d been struggling with mental illness for 3 years, and I realized that many of you, and probably some of my closest friends don’t know how long and hard my struggle has been with mental illness. For me my mental illness wasn’t the kind where I couldn’t get out of bed or out of the house, which would make it hard to tell I was struggling. For me it looked more like battling through the day and struggling with my own self condemning thoughts and emotions - shaming myself for being happy one minute and sad the next, or for not being happy all the time, looking around at all my blessings and not feeling gratitude, which made me feel like there was something wrong with me. It was hard to get excited. On some days I walked around feeling like a scared puppy in a big bad world with my emotions right at the surface. For me, my faith is very important to me, and I knew this was not the life God had for me, so I started to pray for help and deliverance. God started to lead me to help in a whole bunch of different forms, counselors, health practitioners, friends, medicine, trauma therapy, EMDR, books, excercise, the support of family, and most importantly, Christ and His word. 
For me, it was over a 10 year battle probably because I was overcoming a lot of trauma being raised by an alcoholic mom. But for you it may be longer or shorter or this isn’t something you struggle with at all (hallelujah!). If you do, your emotions and your struggle may be different. But I’m here to say, you’re loved. You are loved by God and by so many of the people around you. Don’t give up. Dig in and fight the battle that’s happening in your mind. Fight it like you would if you had cancer. #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalillness #mentalhealthmatters
I had fun taking this outfit from day to night by I had fun taking this outfit from day to night by swapping out my denim skirt for my leather skirt!! I’m also totally digging socks with loafers. Takes me right back to my middle school days, and I’m not sad about it! And yes, that’s what my closet looked like after trying to figure those outfits out, but it was fun! 🤷🏼‍♀️

How to get the cuffed denim look without buying a How to get the cuffed denim look without buying a new pair of jeans! You don’t need to buy a new pair of jeans to get the cuffed denim look! Just grab a pair of straight leg jeans from your closet, cuff them to be about an inch or 2 above the top of your ankle bone and use the nifty little gadget from this tutorial. Viola! Plus, the cuffed denim length makes it a heck of a lot easier to wear most of the shoes in your closet! #winning
