Make a Difference with Nordstrom Made

Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Nordstrom and ShopStyle Collective, and contains affiliate links.

It has gotten so cold outside! And although I want to look cute when I step out, I am not trying to freeze in the process. This year I’m also trying to make the best purchases for both myself and the planet. So, when it comes to staying on trend and warm, I shop sustainable items and do my part to help make a difference with Nordstrom Made brands.

I’ve often shared that one of my favorite ever Nordstrom Made brands is Treasure & Bond. What I may have not shared is that my favorite trending item is the puffer jacket. Finding a sustainable long puffer jacket by Treasure & Bond was the best possible discovery!

I’m the most excited to wear it all winter long. Here are two of the ways that I’ve styled it already–

Since my style is more on the casual side, I had to wear it with my favorite sustainable jeans and a new ribbed tank top that I picked up with the puffer jacket with the comfy boots I essentially live in.

This dress is actually one that I’ve had for a while, I absolutely adore it and cannot recommend it enough. And with the boots and bag that everyone has been raving about, what’s not to love about this look?

One of the best things happened when I purchased my puffer jacket, I was able to use $20 in Nordstrom Notes and ended up technically also getting the Treasure & Bond ribbed tank for free!

Holiday sale season is upon us, and Nordstrom is one of my top destinations to shop during Cyber Week. This year I’ll be stocking up on Nordstrom Made gifts for the holidays and more! 

I’m still really loving the Nordstrom Made blanket that I scored last year, and you can never have too many throw blankets so of course I have some of those at the top of my list to get to both gift, and for myself. 

In addition to blankets, Nordstrom has tons of great Nordstrom Made gifts, no matter who you’re shopping for.

Here’s what I found and am adding to my shopping list for under $100, including the exact pajamas I’m wearing–

Nordstrom Made Spring Essentials Under $100

Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Nordstrom and ShopStyle, and contains affiliate links.

Spring in New England is always an interesting time fashion wise. One day will feel like summer and the next will have you question whether or not you should have waited a little bit longer to put all your coats in storage. I personally am a fan of pieces that you can easily style, no matter how the weather decides to act. Ones that you can look just as chic in under a layer (or two), or solo. Luckily, Nordstrom has a ton of amazing options for under $100!

I’ve mentioned one of my favorite brands is actually Nordstrom Made brand, Treasure & Bond. Their graphic tees are a must buy for me, but they also have so much for than that!

I found some of the cutest spring essentials, including this white sweater dress. It’s lightweight enough to wear alone on warmer days, yet can be styled under a shirt, sweater, or jacket if there’s a chill in the air. The other aspect I like about this dress is that it can also easily be dressed up or down, making it the perfect addition for a potential spring capsule wardrobe. 

In addition to the dress, I found this utility jumpsuit. I’ve been obsessing over this style and finding a light-weight one for under $100 seemed almost too good to be true! I love how great it goes with a pair of classic white sneakers.

Nordstrom Winter Style

Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Nordstrom and ShopStyle, and contains affiliate links.

I hear it snowed in Texas. 

Just when it was starting to feel like maybe spring was finally on it’s way back, winter said, lol jk!

Since I’m in New England, I’m used to the snow, and honestly I don’t hate having an excuse to keep wearing (or buying) winter style clothes. 

Typically, I go for knit sweaters and jeans.  But since, like so many of us, my work from home mindset has started to shift to be a little more casual than usual,  I’ve started incorporating even more athleisure winter style pieces into my wardrobe. 

Athleisure wear doesn’t have to be workout clothes, but at the same time, also can be. The main thing is to be comfortable, while still feeling chic. 

I love pairing pieces that you’d wear post-workout, like this sweatshirt, with elevated basics. And even though I would never exercise in faux leather leggings, they work so well with my outfit.

And because of all the snow everyone seems to be getting, boots are a must! I’m really loving the lug boot style right now. This particular style also comes in black leather and cognac suede. Of course, after getting mine, I have the other two colors on my wish list, and possibly getting the next time I have Nordstrom Notes, which you earn points towards when you shop, and can use to spend with Nordstrom later, when you sign up for The Nordy Club.

How are you staying warm in all the snow we’re getting this season?

Nordstrom New Arrivals

Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Nordstrom and ShopStyle, and contains affiliate links.

So far this year is all about new! New president, new hair tools, new arrivals, and new markdowns.

One of the easiest ways to stay on top of what’s in, is to shop new arrivals. That’s exactly what I did to score this entire outfit. Feminine detailed sweaters and wide leg jeans are two trends I can get behind, mostly because they’ll never really go out of style. 

What makes these jeans stand out to me is the distressed details, which are not unheard of, but not nearly as common to find with wide leg jeans as they are with skinny or mom style jeans.

High heeled boots are always a timeless staple, but finding them in the perfect shade of brown is goals.

And if you’re looking for the perfect leather jacket, Nordstrom has my two of my favorites!

All of this pairs all too perfectly with a dainty, but stylish, necklace. I found a few that I love and plan to keep in my rotation. You can always layer a few to add a little more edge to your look.

You may have noticed that these jeans are long! I kind of like them this way, but what I really like is that if I want, I can get them altered for free as one of the many perks of The Nordy Club.

What do you think, should I leave them or get them hemmed?

New Year, New Beauty & Hair Care Goals

Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Nordstrom and ShopStyle, and contains affiliate links.

I’ve never been all that big on New Year’s resolutions, and this year I’ve been even more hesitant to set one. That doesn’t mean that I don’t have goals, and some pretty lofty ones! Since I’ll be continuing to stay home at this time, I figured I would make the most of it as much as I could, by trying to refine my makeup, skincare, and hair care routines. For makeup and skincare, my goal is to get better at applying the products I already know that I love to create Instagram-worthy beauty looks. And also pin down  routines that work, so that I can be more consistent with them. 

Now, with hair care it’s a bit different. If you’re at all familiar with my hair journey, then you know that it is all over the place. But you also know that I’m not good at doing hair, my sisters usually are the ones to do mine for me, and when I find something I can do, I do it on repeat (hello, slick ponytail, that involves A LOT of gel)! 

After checking out the Allure Best of Beauty 2020 winners, and scoping out Nordstrom’s new beauty arrivals, I decided to give a few things a try, including the Sigma Beauty F79 Concealer Blend Kabuki Brush and T3 Lucea ID 1-inch Smart Straightening & Styling Flat Iron. 

Having used the flat iron a few times now, I 100% get why so many bloggers and influencers rave about it. It’s that good! I really want to try one of their curling irons next! I’m still getting better at doing my own hair, especially since going natural, and have a ways to go. But being able to straighten it with ease means I can try more styles, which is the goal.

What are your 2021 beauty goals?

No matter what you hope to achieve this year, Nordstrom has all your beauty needs to help you accomplish it. And with The Nordy Club, you get some pretty great perks, like earning points towards Nordstrom Notes when you shop, that you can use on future purchases. I’ve used a few already!
Not sure where to begin? Here are my current top Nordstrom beauty picks:

Nordstrom X UGG

Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Nordstrom and ShopStyle, and contains affiliate links.

Ugg boots are iconic. And this holiday season you can catch me inside, in head to toe Ugg. That’s right, UGG has so much more than the boots we all know and love them for!

In addition to their boots, I love their slippers, but did you know that they also have loungewear and the coziest sweaters? It’s the leggings for me. This pair is double knit, so they really keep you warm when you have to step outside. 

These two looks are perfect for staying in, and most likely what you’d find me in, on my couch or on a quick coffee run. I styled the UGG Fuzzy Logo Sweatshirt here with jeans, but they would go just as great with leggings, lounge pants, or joggers. And UGG has you covered for outerwear as well, with jackets and coats that you can bundle up in. 

Staying in all day? I love my Phoebe Wrap Cardigan, which can also be worn as a robe over one of the UGG pajama sets.
The best part? UGG is available right at Nordstrom, so if you’re signed up for The Nordy Club, you can take advantage of all your free perks, and earn points towards Nordstrom Notes when you shop, which you can use to buy even more UGG goodies later!

Nordstrom Made Brands Cold Weather Outfit

Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Nordstrom and ShopStyle, and contains affiliate links.

It may not be winter yet, but it is certainly starting to feel like it is. I’ve switched from graphic tees to graphic sweatshirts, and adding (faux) leather and layers to my looks, to make them more cold weather friendly.

With Nordstrom brands, I’ve been able to find the perfect pieces to stay warm as the weather gets colder.

This outfit, which is a new favorite of mine, is all Nordstrom brands!

Graphic tees make up a majority of my tops. Layering them can be cute, but isn’t always the warmest option. Finding graphic sweatshirts has really allowed me to stay true to my style, even when the weather tries to cramp my style. This Treasure & Bond sweatshirt is amazing because it’s a band sweatshirt, but I also really like their non-band options.

Faux and vegan leather is trending in a big way this season, and while I love rocking a pair of faux leather leggings, these Halogen x Atlantic Pacific pants are it for me.

As for layering, a coat is going to be a must real soon, but for the time being, a good jacket can work just fine. To keep my look casual, I went with this quilted longline Zella bomber jacket. It’s both warm and cute!

If you’re shopping Nordstrom brands, or even just at Nordstrom in general, you should seriously sign up for The Nordy Club! It’s free to join and you earn points towards Nordstrom Notes when you shop, which you can use to spend with Nordstrom later. Nordstrom also has free shipping and returns, as well as curbside pickup, so they’ve really got you covered.

Nordstrom Gift Ideas Under $100

Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Nordstrom and ShopStyle, and contains affiliate links.

When it comes to gifts, Nordstrom has way more than just clothes and beauty. I find myself turning to Nordstrom for most of my purchases throughout the year. And the holiday season is no different. Regardless of who you’re shopping for, chances are you can find them something that they’ll treasure at Nordstrom.

Stumped on what to get? Here are some gift ideas, and they all happen to be under $100!

Scented Candle

Candles are one of my absolute favorite gifts to give. The best are the ones that you can smell without even having to light, and the fact that you can reuse the vessel afterwards is a bonus gift! Still feel like you need a little something extra? Bundle it with a wick trimmer and candle snuffer.

Bluetooth Speaker

We got this Bose speaker for Christmas a few years ago and it’s still the one that we use the most. It’s small, so you can toss it into your bag when you’re on the go, but loud enough to make any room feel like a dance floor.

Scarf Watch Band

I’m fairly new to the Apple Watch club, but the basic watch band that it comes with just isn’t it for me. I really loved this fun colorful option, but if it’s not what you’re looking for, Nordstrom has options!

Sleep Mask

I swear by the Slip Silk Sleep Mask, and recommend it for everyone. Last year I lost mine after a flight, and immediately went and bought another one. Yes, it’s that good. 

Skin Care Set

Even if you’re not sure what to gift someone, you really can’t go wrong with a skin care set. Especially during these times, everyone can use a little extra calm and self care. 

Duffle Bag

Purses are something I prefer to gift myself, but when it comes to the gym or travel, I realized that I don’t usually think to buy a quality duffle bag. And I know I can’t be the only one.

Moccasin Slippers

Another Christmas gift that I’ve received and loved! These moccasins are my around the apartment slippers to stay cozy.

Face Mask Chains

Much like the Slip Sleep Mask, their silk face mask is amazing, so much so that I bought three different ones. I’m sure we all have our share of reusable face masks, but how about a face mask chain to elevate our new everyday essential?

Cashmere Scarf

In New England the temperature is dropping and snow is on the horizon. A scarf is such a classic gift to give, one that anyone can use to wear throughout the winter.

Record Player

Something about vinyl just makes me so happy, the sound, the nostalgia, I don’t know. But it’s great to have, and you can also gift it with a record or two.

No matter how long your list is, if you haven’t already, you really should sign up for The Nordy Club! Not only is it free to join, you earn points towards Nordstrom Notes when you shop, which you can use to spend with Nordstrom later. And don’t forget they also have free shipping and returns, as well as curbside pickup. Plus, for Cyber Monday get up to 50% off and an extra 25% off clearance!

Nordstrom Beauty Gift Sets

Can you believe that tomorrow is Thanksgiving? Or that Christmas is only a month away? I know I sure can’t. If you haven’t already, now is the perfect time to start buying the gifts for everyone on your list. And if you have anyone who is beauty obsessed, Nordstrom has the best beauty gift sets from the best beauty brands, including some of my personal favorites!

I’m sure I’ve overshared how much obsessed with Fresh Beauty I am, and have even mentioned their products in other Nordstrom Beauty posts. I stan. They have some of the cutest holiday gift sets whether you’re looking for something to put in a stocking or under the tree. 

Briogeo is one of my go-to, Black female owned, haircare brands. I don’t know anyone who has tried their Don’t Despair, Repair! Deep Conditioning Mask and not absolutely loved it. With the Scalp Revival Charcoal + Coconut Oil Micro-Exfoliating Shampoo, it’s such a great duo to gift!

I know we’re not going out as much or even at all really, and when we are, we’re staying face masked up. But, that doesn’t mean we aren’t taking care of our lips. I still wear lip gloss on Zoom calls and lip balm around at home. In addition to Fresh Beauty, Nordstrom has MAC Lipstick, Kiehl’s Lip Balm, and Bobbi Brown Lip Gloss sets, that I’d for sure be happy to receive. 

If the beauty lover in your life is also a skincare product junkie, a few of my most used products are Mario Badescu Skincare facial spray, Kopari coconut oil deodorant, Anastasia Beverly Hills clear brow gel, and Peter Thomas Roth Masks. All amazing sets that really anyone can appreciate.

Have you signed up for The Nordy Club yet? If not, you’re missing out. It’s free to join and you earn points towards Nordstrom Notes when you shop, which you can use to spend with Nordstrom later. They also have free shipping and returns as well as curbside pickup.
