the MRS. & the MOMMA: 10 Favorite Finds >>> Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Well my friends, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is in full swing, which means I've had the chance to peruse ALL the sale items several times over and pick out my favorites. I even went to Nordstrom yesterday to see some of the items in person (for good measure and making my bday wish list). This sale is the best one all year, of any retailer, hands down. Do you know why? Because the pieces on sale are items you're about to need come fall/winter. They're not last season's has-beens that no one wanted/bought...it's stuff that's on your prime shopping list! And to have an opportunity to buy reduced priced must-haves for the upcoming season is a gift which just can't be wasted! :)
I've pick out what I deem as my favorites of the sale...both in great deals (see the MAC brush set) and key fall/winter staples you'll get tons of wear out of (see black denim and suede booties). On a more selfish note, I'm aiming to try REALLY hard this fall to stick to a capsule wardrobe, meaning keeping only a few pieces on rotation that match with each other...so I've added those essentials here too. I hope you find some pieces to help brighten your day, prepare your fall closet, and help get you through the dog days of summer! Happy Shopping!
