Snakeskin Boots

Enjoy a Cozy Winter with Peach!

November 27, 2019 By kelley 1,853 Comments

This is my favorite time of year!   As the chill in the air has arrived so comes the time to bundle up with fabulous warm cozy outfits!  I am excited to show you the new Winter ’19 Collection from Peach.  This collection is called Nordic Lights, and it might be my favorite yet from Peach!  They describe it as ‘Cozy meets Festive’ and I would have to totally agree as these pieces can take you from brunch to parties, or a football game to lounging by a fire.  All the things I love to do this time of year!  I decided to pick a few great outerwear pieces for myself as well as a ‘Chic’ jogger set that I absolutely love and wanted to share with you, so here they are.

 

First up is this fabulous Faroe Sherpa Jacket.  I selected the color Cloud because I just love wearing white in the winter.   I love it as shown here with denim and booties, but this jacket has taken me to the gym in the cold morning hours.  It is so cozy and I love that it is fully lined.  It is designed to give a relax fit and I purposely sized up one size (Size Small) and I am really happy I did.  This jacket ranges from XXS to XXL and also comes in a beautiful rose color as well.  I can’t say enough great things about this great piece.

Next up is this adorable Polar Pom Hoodie in the color Carbon.  I mean, can you ever be too old for Pom Poms??  I can’t tell you how many compliments I have gotten on this fun cropped jacket.  There are so many great details on this jacket, from the faux fur hoodie, to the velvet draw string cords.  It is the perfect versatile piece that works with jeans, leather pants and even your favorite pair of leggings.  It is also fully lined and it is so soft and cozy.  I would say this jacket is true to size (I am wearing an XS) and it also comes in a range from XXS to XXL and comes in the color Cloud.  If you are wanting to stand out in the crowd, treat yourself to this fabulous jacket!

I might have saved the best for last with this luxurious stretch velvet  Sofie Sweatshirt and Sofie Joggers.  I knew the minute I laid my eyes on these pieces I wanted to get it as a set, but they both stand on their own seperately.  Lets start with the top, I love the oversized funnel neckline with the drawstring detail.  This fabric is so fabulous, you won’t want to take it off.  I stayed true to size on this top (Size XS) and it also comes in a range from XXS to XXL.  If you are a ‘pink’ kind of girl, it also comes in a beautiful Blush color.  Now onto these super chic and comfy Sofie Joggers.  They are also stretch velvet and so cozy you might want to sleep in them!  They have an elastic waistband with an internal drawcord, my favorite thing are the pockets!  They are suppose to have a relaxed look, so I sized up one size (Size Small) and they gave me the fit I was looking for.  They range from XXS to XXL.  I decided to style them for you as I would wear them to a fun night out by adding these leopard booties and a great bag.  But of course, it is the perfect errand running outfit or travel ootd by adding a fun sneaker.  Either way, I promise you this outfit will be on major repeat!

I highly encourage you to check out this entire Nordic Lights Collection and pick yourself up one or two pieces to add to your winter wardrobe.  I would love to hear from you what your favorite pieces are in the comments below.

Still ‘WILD’ about Peach!

September 30, 2019 By kelley 542 Comments

A while back I introduced you all to my favorite activewear line Peach ! I am here to say that they are still my #1 go to for athleisure wear but also amazing wardrobe Fall and Winter wardrobe staples with the launch of their new Autumn 19 Collection ‘Into the Wild’ !

Let’s start off with this fabulous look that to me fall under athleisure wear AND also casual chic style!  I am wearing their Kora Pullover in this rich color Garnet (size S).   The satin detailing along the sides is gorgeous and the fit is a relaxed fit.  I sized up one size to give me a bit more length for wearing with leggings.  And speaking of leggings, can we just please talk about these FABULOUS Nina Leggings also in Garnet! (Size XS). These are beyond show stopping, with their leather-like front they will truly elevate any look!  I love wearing these pieces together, but they totally stand on their own.  Both pieces come in other colors but I highly suggest the garnet color as I promise you will get heads to turn in this beautiful rich color!

Now, to demonstrate my comment about how Peach is now my ‘go to’ for wardrobe staples, this amazing Mara Moto Jacket (sz XS) is from their new Autumn Collection!  I selected this beautiful Khaki color, but it also comes in a beautiful shade of olive.  This jacket is made of a stretch vegan suede, and has fabulous silver hardware details.  You won’t believe the best part of this jacket…….wait for it……..it is MACHINE WASHABLE!!  I promise this piece will be on major repeat for me all Fall and Winter!

I might have saved the best for last!  You all know much I love wearing dresses, and this gorgeous Marula Dress in black (sz XS)  jumped off the page for me and I knew I needed it in my closet ASAP!  It is the absolute perfect combination of Chic and Comfy!  The fabric is a French terry with polished satin details along the sides which elevates this dress to the nines!!!  I love it paired here with snakeskin boots, but I also can’t wait to style it with some fun sneakers for an edgy street style look.

You all know that I only share what I love and would wear myself and I am so honored to be a Peach Ambassador.  I am so impressed with all the pieces that I own from them and I give them the highest recommendation.  Make sure to check out this Autumn 19 Collection and don’t hesitate on ordering as their pieces tend to go fast as they are truly the ULTIMATE in style and quality.

 

XO

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is Live!!

July 10, 2019 By kelley 329 Comments

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is  here!!!  Today is the first day for Early Access (Nordstrom cardholders can shop starting at 12:59pm ET until 7/19!  (see more explanation below). This will be my first #NSALE as a full-time blogger!   I am so excited to share with you all the amazing things you need to know to make the experience FUN, help you look as CHIC as possible, and most importantly SAVE YOU MONEY on some great pieces!!

For only a few weeks each summer, Nordstrom makes shoppers’ dreams come true by offering BRAND NEW ARRIVALS (for both summer and fall) at unbelievable sale prices for a limited time. This popular event is what shoppers know today as the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.

Key Dates

Early Access: 7/12-7/18

During Early Access, Nordstrom cardholders get to shop the Anniversary Sale a FULL WEEK before it opens to the public.  In order to shop Early Access this year, you MUST be a Nordstrom cardholder.  If you are not currently a cardholder, you can apply for a Nordstrom Credit Card here to make sure you score the best deals before Public Access.

Public Sale 7/19-8/4

For non-card holders, the Anniversary Sale opens to the public on Friday, July 19 and wraps on Sunday, August 4. Nordstrom historically restocks items that have sold out during the Early Access window, so be sure to keep an eye out!

Top Brands to look for!

Unlike previous years, this year there are no brand restrictions during the Anniversary Sale!  Hooray!!  Here are some of the projected Top Picked Brands to look for in this years sale!

  • Halogen
  • BP
  • Vince
  • Leigh
  • Zella
  • Barefoot Dreams
  • Uggs
  • Madewell
  • Topshop

 

Let”s talk trends!

I thought it would be fun if I highlighted a few categories and trends that I feel you should consider adding a piece or two to your wardrobe that will be featured in the Anniversary Sale!  The #NSale is a great time to start stocking up on fall-ready items and great transitional pieces. The sale is also great for trendy pieces because you are buying them at a discounted price (hooray!), and we never know when a trend will die, so we don’t need to worry and feel guilty!

Brights and Bolds!

Good News!  Bright colors are going to be transitioning to fall this year!  A pop of color always is the answer to brightening a cold and gloomy day. There are so many ways to incorporate colorful pieces to ‘brighten’ your outfit — and hopefully your mood!  Consider adding a bright sweater, or a fun bold coat, or possibly a red or yellow shoe to liven things up a notch from those traditional fall colors that you might normally wear.

Here are my favorite picks from the sale for you to shop:

 

 

 

Tame your Wild Side!

Animal prints are bigger and better than ever!!  Get ready to see a lot of snakeskin this fall (Yay!) as well as zebra, tiger and of course leopard.  The key to styling an outfit with animal print is to make sure it is used in the perfect way to achieve a chic look!  I believe an animal print mixes well with any other print (i.e. floral, plaid, stripe, etc) and any color palette .  Treat it like a neutral!

Here are my favorite picks for you to shop:

 

 

Mad for Plaid!

There is definitely an up-tick in checks and tartans heading into fall!  I absolutely adore wearing plaid.  There are so many great ways to wear plaid, whether it is in a great blazer, a tailored pair of pants, or a classic skirt, I really encourage you to add to some plaid to your wardrobe.  If you want to just dip your toe in the water, start with a fun pair of plaid shoes and I promise you will be asked, “Where did you get those fabulous shoes?”

Here are my favorite plaid picks for you to shop:

 

 

Denim on Denim!

Denim is definitely something I feel like you should be shopping in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.  Three trends to watch out for:  Flares, Skinny, and Straight.  I myself will be on the lookout for some updated straight-legged jeans (with some interesting frayed or jagged edges) to add to my closet.  Denim is so easy to pair with just about anything as you can dress it up or down as you choose, and don’t rule out a denim on denim outfit (since you know that is one of my favorite looks to wear)!

Here are my favorite denim picks for you to shop!

 

 

Autumn Hues!

One of my favorite things about fall fashion is being able to wear those gorgeous autumn hues.  Rich tones of orange, browns, and greens are definitely something you want to always add to update your Fall wardrobe.  Just talking about Fall puts a smile on my face (as I am typing this right now in 95 degree temps)!  It is definitely my favorite season of the year!!!

Here are my favorite picks in this category:

 

 

Boots and Booties Galore!!

Shoes are ALWAYS where it’s at during this sale. One thing I will say is sizes start to sell out quickly,  so don’t take too much time deciding if you should hit ‘add to cart’ or not!  I can honestly say the sale prices on boots and booties (remember these are NEW STYLES) are really great and these will be pieces you will have in your closet for a LONG TIME!!  (Win-Win)!

Here are my favorites and you will be so happy at the prices!!

 

I hope you like my picks and my main purpose is to help you get some beautiful yet AFFORDABLE pieces that I feel the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale offers!  I will be sharing more picks that you can shop from starting July 12th (when the Early Access goes Live) on my Liketoknowit profile as well as my Instagram Stories throughout this sale!  As always feel free to leave me a comment or send me a DM through @50shadesofstylebykelley on Instagram.

XO
