I am SO excited to share today what I got from the Early Access Nordstrom Sale and girl, I know you are too! This is literally the best holiday sale of the year! I’m like GIDDY to share these things with you. I think partially because last year I was pregnant to THE MAX and this year I’m back in my normal size so it was really fun to shop sale items! And also EVERYTHING IS AMAZING in this sale. Like I’m going out on a limb here and saying this is their best sale yet!
For brevity’s sake, I’m not doing a full write up after each outfit, I’m just telling you what size I bought and if I thought it fitted true to size, etc. I have a bad feeling a lot of these things are going to FLY today so if you like it GET IT. I’m serious, you can always return but once something is gone a lot of times it’s gone. I’ll denote the items below that I think will sell out the quickest just based on what I saw in store yesterday with high / medium / low. Shop accordingly.
Okay, let’s do this!!
Also, do me a solid and ignore the shoe trash in some of the photos. I got so excited to take photos that I forgot about the shoe insert and yes, there they are in most of the photos. Ha!
Free People Orchid Sweater + AG The Legging Ripped Jeans
Shown with: BP. Tonya Open Toe Mules
Free People Sweater: I’m in the medium. It fits true to free people size, slouchy. I’d size down if you are petite, stay true for a slouchy/ careless fit.
SELL OUT RISK: MEDIUM
AG The Legging Ankle Ripped Jeans: I was hoping they’d have these again! MY FAVORITE JEANS EVER. Seriously. Get them. I’m in the 29. I feel like they fit a little snug, but this is my normal AG jeans size. Stay true to size, they will stretch.
SELL OUT RISK: HIGH
Also shown: AG Legging Ripped Jeans / BP. Tonya Open Toe Mules
Hinge Surplice Sweater: I’m in the medium. It is a closer fit on me than the model because of my boobs. It fits true to size, with a little wiggle room. If you are petite or have a smaller chest, size down. Note: this material is a lightweight feel. Not a true sweater but heavier than a summer weight.
PS: This top is breastfeeding friendly!!
WEEKEND SELL OUT RISK: LOW
Trouve Rib Funnel High Neck Sweater
Also shown: Dolce Vita Tommi Perf Booties / AG Legging Ripped Jeans
Trouve Rib Funnel High Neck Sweater: I am in the medium. It’s a loose fit but true to size!
SELL OUT RISK: SUPER HIGH
Halogen Boiled Wool Open Front Jacket
Also shown: BP. Lace Camisole / AG Legging Ripped Jeans / BP. Tonya Open Toe Mules
Halogen Boiled Wool Open Front Coat: I sized down in this. It fits pretty large. I am in the small. The medium was too big, and I’m usually a medium / 8 in coats so take that as you will. I suggest size down one.
SELL OUT RISK: HIGH
Halogen Varsity Stripe Cardigan
Also shown: BP Lace Trim Camisole / Lucky Brand Yabba Wedge Booties / AG Leggings Ripped Jeans
Halogen Varsity Striped Cardigan: I am in the medium. This fits true to size.
SELL OUT RISK: MEDIUM
Also shown: Topshop Cropped Tee* + BP. Tonya Open Toe Mules
Leith Tie Trousers: I sized up to the large for these. I don’t actually think that they fit true to their size chart, I found the large to be more like an 8. I have a rounder tummy though and these fit best for me. I’d stay true to size if you have a smaller waist, but if you carry weight in your hips or tummy, size up one.
SELL OUT RISK: MEDIUM

Caslon Rounded V Neck Tee: THIS TEE IS THE BEST! And it’s $17.90! I sized up in this tee to a large because I am an insane person and love drapey!!! It fits true to size though, so only if you want it to be drapey size up. The medium fit well too, I’m just weird like that. True to size.

SELL OUT RISK: MEDIUM TO HIGH
Dolce Vita Tommi Perforated Booties
Dolce Vita Tommi Perforated Bootie: Hands down my favorite shoe I purchased. They are SO soft and so comfortable. The suede leather already kind of worn-in feeling and I seriously did not want to take these off. If you have one bootie to buy, it’s this one!! True to size.
SELL OUT RISK: SUPER HIGH
BP. Tonya Open Toe Mules: Fits true to size! This one comes in 4 colors and I was this close to getting the grey but I got the nude blush instead! Still dreaming about the grey though!
SELL OUT RISK: HIGH
Lucky Brand Yabba Wedge Bootie
Lucky Brand Yabba Wedge Bootie: Fits true to size and SO comfortable! I love the wedge bootie, was hoping this look would come back this year!
Sell out risk: Medium
I was not able to get these yesterday, because my size was already gone! But I bought them this morning online! I have been WISHING for these flats to come back around since 2014!!!! I am serious, these are my favorite flats in the world. Well worth the purchase price! I sized down a half size to a 9.5. I’d suggest a half size down at least.

I LOVE your picks!! Madewell is winning at everything recently, it’s like they can read my mind!
Heading to Nordstrom after work. I should’ve taken the day off; as it is a national holiday at our house. My kids have known the game plan for Thursday all week. Wish me luck! 😉
It is TOTALLY a national holiday bahaha
Love the gold necklace you’re wearing! Where is it from?
Hi! Nordstrom lol, but it’s not on sale! It’s Gorjana Chloe Small Pendant here:http://bit.ly/2K2ixHT
I love the Dolce Vita booties! What color socks (if any) do you wear with them, seeing as they’re perforated? Curious because I’m thinking about snagging them if they’re still available when the sale goes public!
Same question here – I’m always drawn to this style but then I wonder about the sock situation and chicken out!
I was wearing them no socks there but a no-show sock would be fine! I have black ones and tried it out and it was good. I mean sure, if you look really hard at my feet yeah you could see something but you’d be a really special person if you were looking that close at a stranger’s feet! LOL.
I wear no-show or those annoying liner socks (YEAH I SAID IT, THEY ARE ANNOYING). So the ones that you can also wear with flats, do you know what I’m talking about?? But I think if you wore a darker sock, like a black or even a neutral you’d be fine. I just wouldn’t go full athletic sock in that bootie. LOL. Giggling at that image.
Love everything you bought! There were some stuff I missed that you got and now I want to go shop again haha!
