Of course, y’all know we are definitely going to share our workout faves with you from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. PS- in case you want more info on what this sale is, or want to shop pieces besides workout gear, you can check out this post!
Below, we rounded up our favorite workout pieces (most under $100), which is an incredible deal! Most of these items are at least $100, or close to it once the sale is over. So, basically, now is the best time to stock up before it all sells out!
These leggings from Beyond Yoga are SO soft. Every time we wear them, we just want to pet ourselves, haha.
These grey crops are a great everyday pair and they go with everything!
This water bottle keeps your drinks hot or cold, and we love the colors of it.
We have this tank and it is also SO soft, and the back has a really cute strappy design.
This rain jacket is a must and it’s on sale for under $70. We have had ours for years, and still wear it all of the time!
Happy Monday, y’all! We hope you had a great weekend. Our was busy, but also relaxing at the same time! We have been super swamped with covering the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, which is AMAZING, so don’t forget to stock up for fall. Our mom just placed a big order online, haha. Read more about the sale here! Anyways, we had a few requests to do a post on pattern mixing. We are both major fans of pattern mixing, especially in the summer, because it takes an outfit from basic to fun! It doesn’t have to be a huge amount of patterns going on, but just a few will work great! In this outfit, we paired these adorable striped pointed flats with this star + stripes scarf. This would be a super cute outfit for Labor Day in a few months, or just for a festive outfit! This scarf is so soft, too, which is a major plus! This red bag is a great pop of color and it actually fits a lot in it! As far as pattern mixing, here are our guidelines:
mix prints of different scales (smaller prints with larger prints)
keep colors in the same color family
use stripes as a neutral
tie a printed shirt around your waist
mix prints and neutrals:
chambray and leopard or gingham
polka dots and chambray
Mix complimentary prints:
stars and stripes
polka dots and stripes
leopard and stripes
plaid and leopard
This basic white tee is on sale right now for $15 and is a basic MUST! These jeans are the best ripped jeans and also we just got this pair thats on sale that we are loving! These flats are so fun and we love the jewel detailing. Super fun pop, without being too much!We love Sole Society for their affordable accessories that are super cute, and versatile! Not going to lie, pretty much 80% of our sandals are from there, haha!

It is about that time that most people are taking their summer trips. In case y’all are about to head out on a trip, we wanted to share some of our must have summer vacation packing essentials. We don’t know about you, but we are known to overpack, especially when we are going on a beach trip. You can never have too many options, right?! And, what if you aren’t in the mood to wear what you packed! UGH, the struggle is real.
We want to talk a little about what is on our packing list:
SUNGLASSES: of course, you have to have good shades. Yes, they are to protect your eyes, but let’s be honest, they are also for the fashion statement.We love these mirrored ones, and these aviators are classics.
TOTE: a good tote is a necessity for heading out to the pool and beach. We love to bring one that doubles as a travel bag as well. This one is on sale and super cute!
SUNSCREEN: we literally ALWAYS forget this on every.single.trip. We love this brand, and the scent of this one looks amazing!
WATER BOTTLE: we started doing this and bringing a water bottle with us. It is great to bring to the beach, so you can make sure that you are drinking enough water and staying hydrated.
WHITE JEANS: always a classic, and we love the fit of these!
DENIM SHORTS: These are great to throw on top of a swimsuit and we love the cuff on these!
SLIP ONS: we swear by these because they’re under $60 and come in a bunch of colors!
BRIGHT SANDALS: these are a good color and these are super comfy! They also come in a bunch of colors!
HAT: we love a good hat, and this fedora hat is a great option that can be worn with your swimsuit or regular clothes.
SUGAR LIP BALM: This one is super moisturizing and it has a light shade of color.
BB CREAM: This is one is a great every day color. We have been using this one pretty much every day and we love how lightweight it is, but it is also good coverage for during the day.
