Saturday Shopping

July 18, 2026 by Courtney 1 Comment

Good morning. It’s a beautiful day here. Enjoying the sunshine on our deck while I work on this post. What are you up to this weekend? We are looking forward to celebrating our 23rd wedding anniversary. Where does the time go, my friend?

NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE

Everyone can shop the sale and there are a few classic pieces worth noting. Let’s jump in.

So good. Classic and makes any outfit look chic. I went with the “Forest Black Mini” so it will go with black and brown. Style it like this or with just a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. Keeps you warm and looks so stylish.

Sizes are going quickly in this. It’s so beautiful and unique. The fit in the back is really flattering.

This coat is so chic. Love the elevated look of this.

I ordered these booties and can’t wait to wear them this fall and winter. I’ve never had a bootie like this so I am excited. They also come in a black leather.

boots

I’ve had these cowboy booties for a year and love them. Not sure why the reviews aren’t great on them because I think they are super comfortable and adorable. You get the look of high cowboy boots with denim without wearing the full boot. Really cute.

These mules are beautiful and under $100. They look like the high end version.

These are similar to the ones at Nordstrom but less money and get fantastic reviews. Worth a look and under $40. Riley wants the cranberry color.

This body butter is a favorite of mine. I often gift it to friends as well. So buttery soft.

This purse is beautiful and essentially 3 in one. You can take the strap off to use as a clutch. You can also extend the strap to create a crossbody. Fantastic choice, especially when traveling. You really get so many looks from just one handbag.

Been eying a special watch? This never goes out of style. My husband gifted me one years ago for an anniversary and I’ve worn it ever since. So beautiful and they only go on sale during this sale.

I get compliments on my bracelet stack so often and this is part of it. A great price during the sale.

Another pretty choice if you like the layered look. I think it instantly elevates an outfit.

I wear my diamond huggies almost daily. They look great with everything. I always wear these when I travel. Great gift, too.

AMAZON FINDS

These are so cute and under $40! I just ordered them. Can’t beat the price and they have good reviews, too. I love the style of these.

SAVE OVER $200

The Ruti version of these pants are over $200. This Amazon version is under $30 right now. Great for travel or just every day life. They are very comfortable and come in a few colors. I like the navy and black best. The elastic waist makes them so comfy and the barrel style just gives them more style than a plain black pant or loungewear.

I carry this purse pretty much daily. LOVE IT. This is Riley’s Amazon version. Looks just like mine. I will be ordering black for fall.

suede handbag

This is similar to one of the Nordstrom bags but this one is $22!!! I love it and wore it all throughout fall. Highly recommend. This is the coffee color but there are so many great colors. (Nordstrom version here)

A heads up that my walking pad is on sale right now. It’s a good price to begin with. Nothing fancy but it works great and I LOVE it. My sister has the same one.

This bone color (the ivory) is so good!!! It goes with everything and so cute for bad hair days.

I know a few of my readers adore the Chord hats. They are a splurge but so good. Have you seen this seersucker version? Eek. So darn cute.

WEDDING GUEST

I’ve had a few of you reach out to ask about wedding guest dresses. Good timing as I am headed to a couple of weddings over the next few months.

Fall wedding? I would be wearing this as a wedding guest. This is so beautiful.

This silk dress is beautiful on and fits true to size. Very flattering cut and elegant.

This is lovely and under $100!

This is a gorgeous dress. So pretty!

SUMMER DRESSES

I normally don’t love athletic dresses but this one is a 10/10. It’s beyond soft and feels so good on. This is a small (true to size). I like that it isn’t cut to high up under the arms. When I put this on, I don’t want to take it off. Highly recommend.

A friend of mine wore this to brunch the other day and it was DARLING. Very cute dress.

This dress makes me want to immediately head to the beach. So easy and breezy.

Speaking of the beach, I just ordered this for our two beach trips. This is so adorable.

EXTRA 50% OFF SALE AT ANTHRO

This classic dress is an extra 50% off!! It was $148 and is now $50!

These Colette pants have the best reviews. I adore them! They are now an extra 50% off. I may have to grab this knit pair.

This dress is really cute for the younger crew. Love the tie front. Extra 50% off.

A MUST BUY

I can’t believe I’ve gone years without this. It’s phenomenal. It removes the silverware marks from dishes. I thought my white bowls were toast. You rub gently with a soft cloth and the bowls (or anything else) look brand new. Miracle paste.

Need a pretty coffee table. This caught my eye. It measures 52″ x 26″. So good looking and under $400.

This is gorgeous. What a pretty piece. If you need a large scale coffee table, this should be on the list. Really pretty.

family room rug

The rug we have in our family room is on sale. Truly adore this rug. Beyond soft and really pretty colors. Very accurate photo of the colors (my sister has this in her family room, too).

We are off to find the crown molding for our laundry room. Here’s hoping it’s a sort search. Make it a wonderful weekend, my friend. See you back here on Monday.
