Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: Elevating My
Activewear ///

These are my go-to travel sneakers, and I'm excited to see them included in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. They're incredibly comfortable for long days on your feet, but it's the clean black-and-white design that sets them apart. They look more elevated than most athletic sneakers and work with nearly everything in my suitcase.///

I've gradually replaced most of my athletic shorts with skirts. I find them just as comfortable, but they look more polished and are easier to wear beyond a workout. Add a simple black tee and a straw hat instead of a baseball cap, and the whole look feels a little more put together without sacrificing comfort. I was happy to find all three included in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.///

Previewing the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale & Building My Wishlist

As I was looking through what’s included in the sale, I realized I shop it very differently than I used to. Now it’s mostly about stocking up on things I’d be buying anyway. Since many of those items tend to sell out early, I save them to a wishlist during the preview so I’m ready when my shopping window opens.

I’ve saved a Flamingo Estate candle, one of my favorite Byredo scents, and the sneakers I routinely buy.

I’m sure I’ll add several beauty products to the list. There are several brands I use regularly, and some are bundled into sets, perfect for travel or gifts.

I’ve talked a lot about adding color to my wardrobe, so I’m looking for things to help build that category in my closet.

By focusing on a few areas like this, it’s an easy way to preview the sale and save what I want. Once my shopping window opens, I’ll just go straight to my wishlist.

As I find things over the next few days, I’ll share them here.

NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE FIND:

On a recent trip to Portugal in May, a padded black bomber became the surprising hero. I loved its sporty vibe that gave my wardrobe a contemporary edge. I only wished it wasn’t so heavy. Note to self…find a lightweight style to wear in warmer weather.

A contender popped up online, but I wasn’t sold based on how it was styled. I scrolled on. In store, I spotted it again and saw its relevance. The slightly textured sheen, subtle interesting details, lots of pockets - it was a definite winner I wouldn’t have considered if I hadn’t seen it in person. I purchased it in navy (so dark it almost reads black). It’s available in ivory too which I’m seriously considering. When I love an item, I buy doubles, and this may be one of those special pieces.

One of my in flight uniforms is topping off a very basic ensemble with a stylish coat or jacket. I love having one with me for comfort plus it ups the style factor even if the rest of the outfit is so-so.Same pieces with a shorter coat and sneakers:
Chloe peacoat, Hogan sneakers, Vince pants (I also like these from Theory), Vince top (on sale), Moncler sweater

THE UNIFORM

Wearing Nili Lotan jacket. The Paige is my favorite style. Goes with everything! Blue may be sold out but olive green and an ecru stripe are equally good!

Mother Denim jeans - my go to. Universally flattering. Prefer this silhouette with a mid heel shoe.

Love the mini Flamenco bag from Loewe. Extremely versatile with the option of a short chain strap, a long leather strap or neither for use as a clutch .

FAVORITE TRAVEL FRIENDLY PANTS

For any of you tempted by the travel friendly Jet Set pant from Frame, it’s on sale. I’m wearing the Jet Set Crop here in a size 1 (they’re sized 0,1,2). I also have the longer version of the same pant.

These styles, plus others in Frame’s Travel Collection, are 25% off until 3/30 using code TRAVEL25.

NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE PREVIEW

My fashion picks include one of my favorite Max Mara insulated jackets I’d want for travel. The fabric lends itself to day or night activities and the color is beautiful. I also love Max Mara’s classic double face wool wrap coat (not pictured) which is $1,100 and will go up to $1650 after the sale. The Frame jeans I’ve been wearing non-stop the last few months are part of the sale and I may get another in the dark wash…they’re that great! My sneaker wardrobe needs a refresh and a retro inspired style will do the trick. Love these from Vince in black or cream. I have the Vince crew in camel and it’s a go-to for silhouette, neckline and weight. I would get tons of wear from one in black or white. Out of all the stripe sweaters I have in my closet, none are sleeveless. The Rag & Bone top is an easy addition to layer under jackets. And a classic poplin shirt dress from Lafayette round out my picks.

Elevating the Ordinary

I may never purchase a pair of black flip flops this season, even though they've been on my radar. They're incredibly versatile and very much in style, but I've reached fatigue with the overwhelming availability across price points that run the gamut. I'll probably pass on the basics now that I've found a more elevated style from Tom Ford - so simple in softly braided suede with a delicate gold T-bar adding major style points. They're a notch above the rest.
