Nordstrom Anniversary Sale - Must Haves!

If you're like me, you've spent a lot of time perusing the Nordstrom site the past few days. With so many great deals for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, it's hard not to! I definitely already have a few favorites including this cardigan (so soft and just $32...a must!) and this fun top (lace up detailing in the back and so flattering). I've picked up some great pieces, especially for back to school (any teachers still go back to school shopping??), but still have so many on my wish list! I've rounded up some of my favorite purchases and current wish list items! Just click the product in the collage below to shop! 

Illesteva Sunnies (Now: $174 //After Sale: $290): These sunnies are fabulous. I have wanted them forever, but they are regularly $290! They are at the top of my wish list! I might end up with them before the sale is over! 

Bell Sleeve Dress (Now: $32 // After Sale: $48): This sweet dress is one of the first things I ordered. It has a very flattering fit and is easy to style now and in to fall and winter. I can just imagine pairing it with boots and leggings for work on chilly winter days! It runs slightly big, so I ordered an XS. 

Suede Booties (Now: $100 // After Sale: $160): I am literally kicking myself for not getting these the first day of the sale! They sold out so fast and are no longer in available in this color in my size (although the black is pretty fabulous). These are a wear with anything boot and I am hoping they will restock when the sale opens to the public! 

Leather Wrap Watch (Now: $117 // After Sale: $195 ): This is currently sitting in my cart along with this watch. I can't decide between the two! I am leaning towards this one because I love the wrapped strap! 

Tassel Crossbody (Now: $30 // After Sale: $45 ): This little crossbody is the perfect color! Style it now and in the fall. Plus, how cute is the tassel?? 

Light Distressed Denim (Now: $59 // After Sale: $88 ): This is my FAVORITE brand of jeans! I own a few pairs and love them, so you better believe I ordered these! They haven't come yet, but I can't wait to start wearing them! 

Cozy Cardigan (Now: $32 // After Sale: $48):  By far my favorite piece from the sale, this cardigan is amazing! I already ordered it in a few different colors, it's that good! I love a good cardigan, especially when it comes to my work wardrobe. A cozy cardi is perfect for chilly winter days in a cold classroom and can transition some of my warmer weather dresses and tees for the colder months! 

Lace Up Flats (Now: $60 // After Sale: $90): I wore my lace up flats SO much last fall and winter. When I saw this color, at this price, I had to have them! They come in 6 different colors and are going quick! 

Plaid Scarf (Now: $19 // After Sale: $30 ): This scarf was my favorite last fall! I was so excited to see they brought it back for the sale because it is a fall essential! I wore mine a ton last year (as seen here and here), and found it so easy to style (especially with stripes and cognac accessories)!

Distressed Denim (Now: $45 // After Sale: $68 ): I have some similar jeans from the sale a few years back and they are still some of my most worn, so I snatched these up! You can't beat the price tag!

Wool Hat (Now: $29 // After Sale: $48 ): Every girl needs a wool hat for the fall! I love the color of this one and can imagine a million different ways to style it!  

Stripe Tee (Now: $18 // After Sale: $28 ): Another great sale piece that I ordered. A stripe long sleeve is a closet staple. This is something I will wear repeatedly! 

Buckle Booties (Now: $100 // After Sale: $150): Another of my fall favorites from last year that they brought back, but in even more colors! I wore these a ton last year, even to work as they are SO comfortable!
