Happy Monday! Can’t believe this is the last week of July. The summer is flying by. Since a lot of y’all know that we are pretty petite (5’1″), we wanted to share how to style and wear jogger pants, even if you are mini-sized, like we are.
We love how comfortable jogger pants are, but most of the time, we can get swallowed up in them. Below are some tips we like to reference when looking for jogger pants, and also styling them!
Find The Right Pair
You want to be sure you don’t just look at any pair of joggers. You are ideally looking for a pair that comes in petite sizing, or shorter lengths, so you don’t get swallowed up in a big pant. This olive linen pair is great for petites, or any size, because it comes in the petite sizing. We are wearing size xxs petite, and these fit perfectly.
Another option is to get them hemmed, but most of the time, you’re not going to want to do that. Also, option for a pair that is cuffed at the bottom can help with a pair that runs longer.
Keep It Fitted
You want to try and wear tops or shirts that are more fitted. If you wear something more baggy with it, you are going to look like a box, and have no shape, and nobody wants that!
In this case, we paired a stripe v-neck tee (we have on size xs), and it is good basic to have. You can wear it with jeans, too! When it starts getting cooler out, you can throw on a denim jacket!
Pair A Fun Shoe
Of course, we tend to think of joggers as more athleisure wear, but they’re not just for workout attire. You can wear them with fun shoes, too. We are wearing these really cute snakeskin mules that are actually a type of espadrille, so they’re comfortable, and also stylish. We have a size 7 in these.
We found these great joggers and the rest of the outfit we have on at Nordstrom. We actually ordered all of these online, but used the curbside in-store pickup, so we didn’t even have to get out of our car, haha. Total definition of laziness, but we are okay with it;)
Happy Friday and Happy Anniversary Sale Day! The BIG sale is here for everyone to shop, so in case you didn’t get what you wanted to, or your favorite items sold out, we decided to put together a fall capsule wardrobe that you can build TONS of outfits with, and best part is, most of these items are in stock in lots of sizes (for now!)
In case you missed our HUGE dressing room try-on post, you can check that out HERE. Some of the pieces sold out, but some may have been restocked, so click away on any links you want to take a peek at 🙂
WHAT IS A CAPSULE WARDROBE?
Before we get into the items, we wanted to answer what a capsule wardrobe is. Basically, it is a collection of basics you can wear multiple ways and put a lot of great looks together. Think of it as your basics for fall to build upon!
JACKETS/LAYERING PIECES
With cooler temperatures, you’re going to want some lighter pieces to throw on like a long cardigan, and then some thicker pieces, like a suede moto jacket.
You can really wear a cardigan so many ways. Since grey is such a good neutral, you can wear it with blacks and browns, and it pairs nicely under a camisole, basic tee, or even a plaid shirt. This one is on sale for under $32.
This black blazer is actually a softer, more flexible material, unlike typical blazers, which we love. You can wear it over a casual tee, or dress it up with some leather leggings and some black booties! You could also pair it with a pencil skirt or dress pants for work. This one is under $40!
We have had our jacket for a few years now, and actually originally purchased ours during the Anniversary Sale a while back. You can truly wear this one all year, whether it is in the summer over a dress, or into fall layered over a tee or sweater. This one is marked down from $188 to $125.
A leather jacket, whether it is faux or real, is a must in any closet. We wear ours so much, and this faux leather one is a great option at just under $60! It is super soft and comfortable, and comes in two other colors.
A cami is very much needed, and can be dressed up or down. In the summer, wear it with some shorts or jeans for date night, and into fall, pair it under a moto jacket or black blazer. This one is just $22.
You have to have a good basic v-neck tee in your closet. This one fits perfectly, and comes in lots of color options. We go with a size s, just so it is not super fitted, and can be tucked in or knotted in the front. This tee is under $12.
Another basic tee you need is a white long sleeve tee. You could do another color, if you prefer, but this kind of tee is great for layering under jackets and cardigans. This one is only $15.
If you are not much of a plaid person, listen up! It does not have to look farmer style, as long as you don’t make it that way! Tuck it into your favorite jeans, or wear it with some faux leather leggings for an edgier look.
Of course, you have to have a good sweater. With black, you can’t go wrong, and this one is great tucked into your jeans, or layered under a moto jacket or leather jacket when it gets cooler out. This one is under $50.
We know the hype is real with these Spanx leggings, but trust us, it is reeaaal. We love love love ours! You can wear them with basically anything! These are marked down to $64.
A dark jean is always classic and can be dressed up or down. This brand is more of an investment, but they fit like a glove, and they are great quality.
Even if you are not a ripped jean fan, this pair has just the perfect amount of holes in it. Love a mixture of rips and chunky knits for fall with some cute booties.
This bag is a great every day bag, and can be worn on your shoulder, crossbody, or on your wrist. Also holds a good amount and is comfortable to carry!
Best neutral color and can be worn over your favorite leggings or jeans. This brand is always very comfortable and lasts for years. This pair is marked down to $150.
This pair keeps selling out like crazy, so don’t miss out on these! You can wear these to work, too, so thats a major bonus! Oh, and they’re under $60.
We have been looking for a good black bootie, and we love how these have a pointed toe because it makes your legs look way longer. Love how they look with an all black outfit! These are under $100.
Happy Friday! We wanted to a roundup of the top selling items for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. SO many of these items sell out within the first day, so make sure you grab them before they’re gone!
THE biggest sale of the year is finally HERE!We shopped the entire Nordstrom Anniversary Sale in-store earlier this week for you all and narrowed down our top picks! We know that not everyone has a huge budget to spend on this sale, so we wanted to show how to style basic staples a ton of different ways–almost like a capsule wardrobe.
Most of the items are all under $100. Also, be sure to check out this post for more info on the sale!

Can you all believe the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is starting this week?! We are going to be sharing ALL about the sale towards the end of the week, so be sure to check THIS post for all of the details on the sale and how to shop it!
Below are some the favorites that will be ON SALE, so be sure to check back at this post when the sale goes live, so you can add these to your cart before they sell out!
**We always recommend ordering multiple sizes if you aren’t sure just because you can always return for free if it doesn’t fit!
Happy Friday! With summer here, a lot of us want to wear something more casual and easy to throw on, but sometimes you need something a little more dressed up if you’re headed on a date, or to dinner! We are sharing our tips for how to dress up your favorite outfits in a few easy steps and tips.
Add a pair of wedge sandals
A super easy to dress up any outfit, especially a cute dress, is to add a pair of neutral wedges! This pair is one of our current favorites because you can wear these ALL day long without your feet hurting. They also come in black and a few other colors.
Something neutral is always a good idea because you know you will get a lot of use out of them. We seriously wear this pair with so many things! For sizing, we have a size 6.5 in these.
Pair with some statement earrings
One way to add an easy and fun pop to any outfit is to add a statement earring, or some kind of earring. The fun thing about earrings is that you can wear something more simple, or something more dressed up, depending on what look you’re going for!
One of our favorites are some kind of neutral, gold-ish hoop earrings like this one.
Wear a cute bag
This seems obvious, but a good bag can really make or break and outfit! For summer, a cute straw bag like this one is always a good idea! Round bags are so in right now, and this one actually does hold a lot in it. It also comes in a gold color. This bag also has a longer strap that you can wear crossbody, or on your shoulder.
Grab a hat
We are major hat fans! If you are like us, we don’t wash our hair often, so we rely on cut hats to keep our hair looking presentable. A fedora hat, like this one, is a great option and can be worn with cute dresses like this, or dressed down to the beach or pool. We also love that this one is smaller, so it is not overpowering.
We found this casual/dress up look all at Nordstrom. We love shopping at Nordstrom because they make it so easy to shop! We just ordered it all online, and then picked our order up curbside! They also offer free shipping and returns, which is a game changer when it comes to shopping.
