Nordstrom Anniversary Sale try on session

Hello there! Yes it's another Nordstrom Anniversary Sale post. I promise I'll back off after this, but the sale will open to the public tomorrow and this might help you in your decisions if you have yet to start shopping.  I love these kinds of posts from other bloggers because I like to see items on real people, not models. So I decided to share my own try on session from my orders with you. My apologies for the bad lighting. Our bedroom is very dark and the hubby wants it that way for sleep. I personally cannot see a thing in there and I don't know how I make it out of the house some days with anything on that coordinates. I also don't really have a full length mirror, just the mirrored doors on my antique wardrobe. And I'm not very good at mirror selfies.... so... keeping it very real.

The first things to arrive were the Halogen scallop edge sweater  and the Bp vneck pullover. I ordered in both regular and petite sizes and couldn't make either work in this scallop sweater. It's one of those on me that just rolls and creates rolls and you can also see the waist band of your pants through it. All of that is just yuck to me. Some bloggers seemed to like this piece. I think if you are more slender and have a longer torso than me, it might work. Don't fret about it being sold out. Mine is on it's way back to inventory.

Work Wear Wednesday- Nordstrom Sale work picks

Happy Hump Day! I promised I wouldn't bombard you with Nsale posts, but I do want to share some work wear picks with you. If you are like me, you  get the most wear out of your work wear and can invest a little more in it since you will be getting more out of it.

9 to 5 Style- Lace

Welcome to 9 to 5 Style! The third  Monday of every month Jennie of A Pocketful of Polka Dots and I will showcase a theme featuring our individual takes on a professional look. Our aim is to inspire and show professional style does not have to mean boring and without personality. We hope you enjoy our 9 to 5 Style!

It's my favorite Monday of the month! I love seeing how Jennie and I take the same item or theme and style different work outfits with it. This month Jennie chose lace. It was a good prompt for me to style this JCrew Factory lace top again. I wore it the first time here. I went with the same color scheme again, but added some pops of color. I have other ways to wear this top in mind, but you just can't beat black and white.
