My Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Haul!

07/16/201907/16/2019

I just spent a whirlwind weekend and literally shopped till I dropped! For a slight change of pace, I’m sharing my haul with you today.

Beauty Exclusives

My brows are seriously lacking, so I grabbed the RevitaBrow Advanced Eyebrow Conditioner Duo. This is a pricey product but it has such great reviews, I have high hopes. The Anniversary Sale duo is the same price as the regular product, so you’re getting 2 for the price of 1!

A friend told me that she’s had great success with LED light therapy, so we both bought this LightStim for Wrinkles LED Light Therapy Device.

Shoes

I’m a sneaker gal, so I bought 2 pairs this year. The ECCO Soft 7 High Top Sneaker. I think this is an exclusive color for the Anniversary Sale.

Also the Munro Randie, which has been selling super well. The gold color is slightly metallic and gorgeous! I always thought of Munro as an old lady brand, but I thought these sneakers were really cute and not frumpy at all.

Clothing

This Rails Hunter shirt is a little pricey but I thought I’d take a chance and it has not disappointed. It drapes so beautifully!

The Treasure and Bond Print top is really cute. I only wish it came in more prints! I would love to get a second one.

This Caslon top was really pretty. The peplum is really cute and I always love swiss dot texture.

That’s all for me! What was in your haul?

July 10th Updated the blog post with some more info on the gifts and requirements for purchase!

Since the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is fast approaching, I wanted to stop by my local store and check things out in person so I have my gameplan ready. I have it on good authority that there are over 150 brands participating the Glam Up Beauty event.

I took a few photos and I wanted to share what I found, particularly since there hasn’t been too much information about the Gift With Purchase Sets!

I don’t have a comprehensive list yet, but I believe once the sale starts, we will be able to access ALL gifts here: https://shop.nordstrom.com/content/beauty-gifts-with-purchase
