Nordstrom New Arrivals // What the LIY Team is Loving

July 18, 2019

Oh Nordstrom, how we love thee. How our bank accounts hate you. It’s all about balance, right? At least that’s what we keep telling ourselves. With all the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale hype, we sometimes we forget about the fact that there are a ton of great items that are also brand new arrivals that have full stock! No, they may not be on sale, but has that ever stopped us before? That’s what I thought. The team rounded up some of their favorite items that they’re loving, most of which can be worn right now, meaning no waiting until that first leaf hits the ground this fall! Check out what we found and loved below!

Can leopard ever do wrong? I think not. As soon as I spotted this top [pun intended] and knew I wanted to try it. It’s often hard for me to find wrap tops that work with my chest but this one works perfectly without making me feel like I’m exposing all. I love the kimono sleeve detail and ruffle hemline. I found it true to size and am wearing in small. These black jeans from the anniversary sale have been my jam. What you can’t see are the exposed buttons [all different colors and shapes] that make these such a fun statement piece [I find them true to size]. Read more about these sandals later in the post. 

There’s no such thing as having too many tanks for under jackets and cardigans [especially if you’re an office girl!], so when I spotted this top on Nordstrom’s site, I knew I wanted to give it a try! I love the lace overlay down the front, and the ruffle neckline. Plus, anything pink is a win in my book [although it’s available in 5 colors]! It’s a bit lower under the armpits, so I’d suggest wearing it under a cardigan or jacket, rather than alone! This top is true to size, wearing my usual size medium!

In LOVE with this top!! I have been looking for a basic tee with a twist and this flutter sleeve top is perfect!! The color is even prettier in person, the flutter sleeve isn’t too fluttery and it’s so soft!! It’s perfect with shorts for a more casual look or white jeans to dress it up a bit!! Can’t say enough good things about this one!

OKAY hellllllllllo 1901 floral jumpsuit! This little number is so adorable and perfect for summer! I love the cropped leg and smocked top! The best part is that I am usually very picky about my off-the-shoulder items because I hate adjusting them all day! But, I wore this to an outdoor event and NEVER had to adjust, yes you read that right! Get your hands on this one, I have a feeling it may sell out fast!

Animal print is the new black, right? I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect leopard sandal for the season and this pair won me over. I’ve been wearing them on repeat [right now, as I type] since the pattern is neutral enough to pair with almost any outfit. I find them very comfortable, but they do run small so size up .5. Bonus: They’re now on sale and under $40!

Hi, my name is Steph and I have a problem branching out in color. The majority of my closet is blacks, white with black stripes, maybe a gray… you get the picture – I can use some color in my life. When I discovered this fun drapey jacket (https://shopstyle.it/l/5kj6) I knew I had found the perfect piece to go with allllll the neutrals already in my closet! I love the fun sleeve details and beautiful pink color! I would suggest sizing up one, especially if your shirts tend to be a little tighter in the chest or across the shoulders. SUCH a fun piece to spice up my wardrobe!

For this look, I paired it with my favorite dressy jeans (these are DARK blue, not black), a black shell tank (similar) and a pair of cheetah heels for another fun pop!

I’m not sure what it is about white sweaters, but I am addicted! This one is lightweight so it is perfect for spring and summer nights, but can carry you into the fall and winter for the chillier days! Basically it’s a year round closet staple as far as I am concerned! It also has a seam detail down the front which I love! A definite “Add to Cart” piece!

Watch out world, the 90s called and want their suit back. Unfortunately for the 90’s, I’m not returning it. When I spotted this blazer [true to size, wearing in XS] and then the matching shorts [size down if in between, wearing in small but would prefer in XS] I squealed a little inside. This look is way out of my comfort zone, but you know what they say – no risk, no reward. Suit sets are trending so much right now and if you’re looking for a way to rock it, I highly recommend this set. I paired it with my favorite black pumps [true to size] to complete the look!

Summer is here and these sandals are here for it. I love the braided detail and if you know me at all, you know Vince is my #1 guy [sorry, Shawn]. I’ve never worn a pair of Vince Camuto sandals that aren’t extremely comfortable. I love that these can work during transitional spring summer and fall seasons. I find them true to size!

For your Pinning pleasure…
