time to invest

The Nordstrom sale is happening. Well, early access if you have a Nordstrom card. Which you should / should not have. It is a useful tool when wielded correctly, but can be mighty dangerous. Beware. Let's talk about investments. A sale like this? Is the exact perfect time to invest in pieces that you've had your eye on for a while, but whose price tag makes you go:

Shock-and-Awe

 

You don't need clothes. You don't need to shop. Let's get those obvious statements out of the way. You don't need but you will do, so let's do it correctly. These are the pieces that are Allie approved for your consumption during this Nordstrom sale.

A great cardigan.

Something to take you from work to off days, and will transition beautifully from Summer to fall and then Winter to Spring. It can be a lightweight blazer or structured sweatshirt, too. Just let it be comfy and versatile.

A sexy yet functional rain coat.

This year, I've been kicking myself for not having a great shell with all this rain we've been having. It's not hard to do a raincoat really wrong (they can be boring or too sporty), so I love seeing this option at such a great price. Something to hand down to my niece or baller nephew one day.

Chambray all day.

You can never have too many denim shirts, in every shade. I wonder when I'll kick myself for saying that, but for now, scoop 'em up.

A silk shirt.

No one does structured silk shirts like Equipment. White is the most versatile but I just love the mossy color of this one.

Skinnies for shawtys.

I own these in black (seen here) and I think they may be eclipsing my Rag & Bone jeans for MVP. So good, not too long if you're short like me.

Do yourself a favor. Really.

Questions? Please, please have questions. Invest wisely, friends. Until tomorrow!
