I wasn’t going to shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, but…

July 13, 2021 by jessica Leave a Comment

The novelty of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has worn off. I was planning to sit this one out entirely, but curiosity got the better of me when I decided to check out the home section … which then turned into browsing every single page of the sale. And I’ll be frank, there’s not much worth buying, especially those Barefoot Dreams cardigans and throws. You’ve spent an entire year in quarantine wearing loungewear. It’s time to stop doing that to yourself.

The sale opens to the public on July 28 and there’s a decent chance my favorites will sell out by then. Which is completely fine, since I don’t actually need any of these things, but it’s still fun to window shop. Here’s what I have my eye on:

  1. My favorite face lotion. It’s a good time to buy any of your skincare or makeup staples since you know you’ll use it anyway.
  2. A set of silicone utensils.
  3. Statement earrings. The black pair is the best.
  4. A bathmat that comes in three colors. (The grey one would work best with our upcoming bathroom remodel.)
  5. Reusable storage bags.
  6. This cult-favorite bra in charcoal.
  7. A striped Turkish towel.
  8. A black dress with a flattering, classic shape.

Wendy Mink has been a sponsor of my blog for a really long time, even before I made the switch over to this new domain. Every gem I’ve received from the company is more stunning than the last and subject to countless compliments from strangers. I’ll admit that I’m incredibly envious of the women who live in New York and are able to attend the Wendy Mink sample sale this weekend. There will be jewelry from current and previous seasons for up to 70% off (and refreshments!).

When:
Friday, November 30: 12 – 7 p.m.
Saturday, December 1: 12 – 7 p.m.
Sunday, December 2: 12 – 6 p.m. 

Where:
Wendy Mink Jewelry
72 Orchard Street, between Broome and Grand
New York, NY 10002

Online:
If you’re miles away like me, you can take 20% off online through Sunday with code the “HOLIDAY” at checkout. Some of the sample items should be online by this weekend. (Although, may I suggest any of the earrings above? I received the amethyst pair this week. They’re an absolute dream and a steal at just $80 with the discount!)

Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcome Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcomed this little lady to the family! She’s a two-year old snow Bengal that was surrendered after being bullied by the other cats in her home. We’re pretty sure she’s a seal lynx point Bengal, which has Siamese in the lineage, based on her vibrant, slightly crossed blue eyes. She is the sweetest, softest, most playful, and unbelievably talkative little girl. We’re crazy about her! 

We haven’t picked a name just yet, though. We have some ideas, but we’re waiting to get to know her personality more. 😊

Merry Christmas! My own Christmas tree isn’t a Merry Christmas! 

My own Christmas tree isn’t as tinsel’d as this one from the Christmas museum in Salzburg nor does it rotate. Consider these goals for next year.

I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint c I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint cookies and they’re delicious, but a lot of work and they don’t hold up well. If you’re planning on them this year, don’t add the jam dollop until just before you’re ready to serve them. The moisture gets sucked in overnight. Still good, of course, just softer than the first day.
