How to Prepare for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

It is that time of year again! Can you believe it? I think it is my favorite time of the year to shop because I love Summer weather but Fall clothes are my favorite thing to shop for, especially when they are on sale! This sale is not one where they are clearing out old stuff, it is brand new arrivals, sure to be best sellers and trends for Fall! That is why it is such a big deal for us bloggers! Who doesn't love a head start on shopping? They have something for the entire family including home decor, plus I plan to load up on school clothes for my daughter! P.S. it is the best time to scoop up UGGS if you live in the tundra like me ☺️

Early access starts July 12th-19th, which is 8 whole days before it is open to the public. What does early access mean? It means that anyone with a Norstrom Card can shop! Don't have one? Get it now to earn that early shopping pass! Apply for your new card HERE

If you are approved for your Norstrom Card, you will: 

– Earn 2 points per dollar spent in stores and online at Nordstrom, Nordstrom Rack, HauteLook and Trunk Club.

– Plus, get a $40 bonus Note when you make any purchase with us on your new card the day you’re approved.

Also, If you are a cardholder and you have a triple points day to use, schedule it during the sale or when you plan to shop!

You all know it is one of my favorite retailers for the simple fact of the FREE and super easy shipping and returns.

July 4th Party Ready!

This year I decided to link more items than just women's clothing! I couldn't leave the rest of the family out or essentials for your festivities! I love that little cooler below, so cute! 

We rarely have set plans for the Holiday weekend which I love because we usually go to the Country Club for their awesome fireworks and festivities plus our neighborhood has an epic party every year! Parents and children can play 😉

I absolutely love boating but the thought of owning one scares me because I would have to actually commit to using it more than just 1-2X per year....and I am not ready to do that, especially with my daughter just getting into activities, swimming and camps! So until then, we will just use our friends boats. Anyone have fun plans?

Shop the post by clicking on the photos below and it will take you to the site to purchase it! If you have any questions let me know!! XO

I am constantly asking for book recommendations from my Instagram followers over @ladyandredstyle but then when I finish one book, I forget the list of the others!
