August Fashion Picks

While still back here in God’s country enjoying our last few weeks of farm life, I imagine many of you have been doing what I kind of wish I was doing…. hitting up the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.

I’ll admit it, I miss my Nordstrom! Now, I’m not the kind of gal who chooses to waste hours upon hours wondering through a crowded shopping mall. So, in general I rarely venture out past the comfort of my little department store. It’s my one stop shop. I know exactly where everything is… bing, bang, boom, and I’m out!

Last week I took a drive over to Indy to visit my dear friend Julie for the evening. On my way home in the morning I happened to stumble into one of my favorite Nordstroms, at the Fashion Mall at Keystone. Honestly, the sale was pretty picked over, but I was home again… and it felt good!

This month I’m sharing a few of my current Nordstrom picks and a couple other summer staples:

  1. Ray Ban “Erica Classic” Sunglasses FashionI actually picked up this pair of Ray Bans right before leaving Massachusetts last month. However, had I not conveniently left them on the kitchen counter, I’d surely be enjoying them right now. I’ve had a pair of their “nylon” glasses in a different style before, and loved how light they are on my face. I’m the kind of person who easily gets headaches from headbands, ponytails, and tight/heavy sunglasses, so when I come across a pair that are lightweight and adorable, I grab them!
  2. Stem Ruched T-Shirt Midi Dress Stem DressI picked up this little number while popping into the Keystone Nordstrom last week. I wish Stem made it in more colors because I would buy every single one! The side rouching makes this dress so flattering and comfortable. I also love that it can go from casual to dressy just by changing what shoes you wear it with. Comfy+flattering+versatile=perfect!
  3. Free People “Long Beach” Tank Free People TankI find my luck with Free People tends to be hit or miss. Often times I find that even an x-small can be too big. And I get it, that’s the look, but sometimes it just doesn’t work for me. When I do find something from the brand I’m usually obsessed with it, and this tank falls into that catagory! I still need to wear another tank or bandeau under it, but the fit is adorable and the length is just right.
  4. Yosi Samra Fllip Flops Yosi Samra Flip FlopsI found this brand a few years ago while attending an event at National Jean Company, and have been in love ever since! I love the simplicity and comfort of them so much that I snag a new pair every summer. They have a ton of colors too! My favorites are gold and nude. Definitely worth a peek!
  5. American Eagle Cut-Off Midi Short AE Cutt Off Jean ShortsNext to the Hudson Jeans shorts I highlighted last month, these are my favorite this summer. They are a bit more casual than the other pair, and won’t loose their shape by the end of the day. And the best part… they’re on sale, so hurry!
