Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale Purchases


I’ve neglected my blog for quite a few months, but I’m back and hopefully can start writing more frequently.
I will be sharing some of my favorite items from the Nordstrom Anniversary sale as well as of my purchases from this year. Last week was the pre-sale where only card holders had access to sale items; the sale is now open to the general public and prices will go up on August 8.
I placed several orders over the last week and have been slowly receiving them in the mail - I still have quite a bit of things I’m waiting for.

I want to remind everyone to shop the sale through EBATES where you can earn 6% cash back on Nordstrom purchases. Through my orders in the past week, I have already received $42 back.

First up is the Cole Haan Marina Over the Knee boots  ($329 from $500)I purchase these last year during the sale and it quickly became one of my favorite pair of boots. These are a stiletto heel, which is not great for cobble stone streets in  Boston, but the smaller 3.5 inch heel balances it out, making them more wearable. These are about 23 inches tall, and have a VERY small opening of only 13 inches, making them ideal for women with smaller/slim calves. They run slim all the way through the legs and fit tightly around my legs. These are extremely versatile - you can dress them up with a dress of dress them down for a more casual look with leggings and an oversized sweater.

Next up - Halogen Noble Over the Knee Boots ($109 from $189) I’ve been looking for a replacement pair of over the knee boots with chunky heels. I had a pair, but I think my foot grew and they are no longer fitting. I have only worn them a few times and just listed them on my Poshmark page. Last week, I ordered the Halogen Noble Over the Knee Boots since they were on sale for only $109. They arrived in the mail earlier this week, I loved them so much, I ordered the gray pair as well.




 




These fit true to size, They are not as slim fitting as the Cole Haans mentioned above, but they still look great on bare legs and have room for jeans tucked inside on those colder days.
