Dad Jeans – size 25 (I’m normally a 24 so these are a tad big on me – I’m still obsessed with them though! I’ll just wear a belt 😉
Leopard Crop Hoodie ($31.90 sale) | “Dad Jeans” ($52.90 sale)
I’m SO excited to finally show you my outfits from today’s Nordstrom try-on session! My location didn’t have all the items I wanted to try on (which is why I always do some shopping online!) but there are a TON of gems in today’s try-on sesh! 🙂
Topshop Cardigan – size XS, has an oversized fit (tts)
Gigietta Bootie – size 8 (tts)
Lace Cami ($25.90 sale) | Topshop Cardigan ($44.90 sale) | “Dad Jeans” ($52.90 sale) | Vince Camuto Gigietta Bootie ($99.90 sale)
Now I have this lace cami in two colors (white and floral) they fit exactly the same and have a wonderful lightweight, silky feel. These jeans are my favorite pair I tried on since I was looking for a high-waisted pair of “mom jeans” with distressing. They fit a tad big on me but I still love the way they look/feel! This cardigan is also nice and oversized for cozy outfits. It will definitely sell out so make sure to grab one quick!
Black Skinny Jeans – size 24 (tts)
Studded Loafers – size 7.5 (tts)
Free People Citrine Top ($44.90 sale) | Steve Madden Snakeskin Loafers ($59.90 sale) | Black Skinny Jeans ($41.90 sale) | Mini Rubie Tote ($39.90 sale)
This Free People top is so pretty, the back detail is gorgeous! (see pictures on Nordstrom’s site) This outfit felt a little more “preppy” or office casual with the black skinny jean and snakeskin loafers. I’ve had these jeans for almost a year and I still wear them constantly! They’re the perfect fall jean since you can wear them with flats or boots.
These loafers totally surprised me – I thought they would be so stiff but they turned out to be pretty comfortable! You might have to wear them a couple times to break them in, but for the price and super fun snake print detail, they’re stunning!
Gigietta Bootie – size 8 (tts)
Leopard Mule – size 7.5 (tts)
Steve Madden Snakeskin Loafers ($59.90 sale) | Vince Camuto Gigietta Bootie ($99.90 sale) | Calf Hair Leopard Mules ($69.90 sale)
My favorite shoes from my try-on session can pretty much be summed up into these three pairs! (another Steve Madden bootie went home with me – just not pictured here!) The snakeskin loafers come in solid colors and run true to size.
The leopard print mules are AMAZING. I was hoping to find some leopard mules for my fall wardrobe and this was the most comfortable shoe I tried on today. I also loved the Vince Camuto Gigietta Booties with the cut-outs, I know these will sell out super fast since they’re the hot shoe from the sale this year! I decided to pass on them though because I found another neutral pair that I felt like I would wear more. The hype for these booties is understandable, I just felt like they weren’t as comfy as other booties I have!
Free People Tunic Top – size S (I needed an XS, runs big)
Black Skinny Jeans – size 24 (tts)
Gigietta Bootie – size 8 (tts)
Camo Utility Jacket ($58.90 sale) | Free People Citrine Top ($44.90 sale) | Black Skinny Jeans ($41.90 sale) | Vince Camuto Gigietta Bootie ($99.90 sale)
This is the same outfit from above with a few changes! I added the Camo Jacket over top and the neutral Gigietta Booties for a more fall-forward look! This is an outfit you could start wearing now and transition well into autumn. I have this camo jacket from last year and the updated version is a bit more neutral in color (not as “green”). It runs true to size it’s pretty lightweight so it would work well in almost any climate!
Cozy Lounge Joggers – size XS (tts)
Cozy Top ($25.90 sale) | Cozy Joggers ($25.90 sale)
I LOVE how many matching sets are included in this year’s sale! There are so many cozy lounge pieces to choose from. My set is super affordable (only $25 per piece) and it comes in several prints/color options! (I’m wearing the matching leopard print shorts below).
Cozy Lounge Shorts – size XS (tts)
Cozy Top ($25.90 sale) | Cozy Lounge Shorts ($15.90 sale)
The lounge shorts are an even sweeter deal at only $15 and they’re SO soft! This entire set was way too comfortable…I didn’t want to take it off my body! Such a good find from the sale, I think this is one of the better lounge options included this year.
Black Bodysuit – size XS (tts)
Dad Jeans – size 25 (I’m normally a 24, they’re a tad big)
Leopard Mule – size 7.5 (tts)
Ryder Striped Cardigan ($64.90 sale) | Long Sleeve Bodysuit ($15.90 sale) |“Dad Jeans” ($52.90 sale) | Calf Hair Leopard Mules ($69.90 sale)
One of my favorite outfits from today! This black bodysuit is such a great fall staple, and even though it’s long sleeve it’s very light so I can wear it now and later with layered jackets and cardis. This striped Madewell cardigan was gorgeous but the knit is a bit heavier so I decided to pass on it! I just know I wouldn’t be able to wear it here as much as I want to. I also think there will be a lot of striped cardigans coming out similar to this one, so there will be other options in the future!
Brixton Wool Hat ($58.90 sale) | Snakeskin Trim Hat ($38.90 sale)
There are so many fun hats included in this years sale and you all KNOW how much I love my hats! This Brixton blush hat is gorgeous and also comes in black. The snakeskin trim hats weren’t available at my store but I ordered one online so hopefully I can show it to you once it arrives!
Leopard Cardigan – size XS (tts)
Free People Jeans – size 25 (they stretch, so you may want to order down a size)
Gigietta Bootie – size 8 (tts)
Twist Front Tank ($18.90 sale) | Leopard Jacquard Cardigan ($45.90 sale) | Free People Distressed Jeans ($51.90 sale) | Gigietta Bootie ($99.90 sale)
I know this leopard cardigan has been SUPER popular but there were a lot of other cardigans I tried on that I liked better! The leopard print is such a fun pop but I don’t think the color worked for my skin tone. This tank was a great find since it’s such a simple basic that you could layer throughout fall. I also loved the Free People jeans this year (I have last year’s version) but these felt like they ran smaller. Caution: my jeans stretched out a LOT after I wore them, so you might want to size down!
Black Jeans – size 24 (tts)
Taupe Booties – size 8 (tts)
Topshop Striped Sweater ($44.90 sale)| Black Skinny Jeans ($41.90 sale) | Taupe Steve Madden Booties ($86.90 sale)
This striped sweater was so adorable with black jeans and would look equally as amazing with faux leather SPANX leggings! (also included in the #nsale) These are the Steve Madden booties I fell in LOVE with today! They have a pointed toe, light wood bottom and the suede is buttery soft. For the price and quality I think these might be the best booties out of the whole sale!
Long Cardigan – size XS (tts)
Dad Jeans – size 25 (I’m normally a 24, they’re a tad big)
Gigietta Bootie – size 8 (tts)
Longline Cardigan ($45.90 sale) | Leopard Tee ($15.90 sale) | Distressed “Dad” Jeans ($52.90 sale) | Pointed Toe Gigietta Booties ($99.90 sale)
Who doesn’t need a leopard tee in their life?! I normally would have grabbed a XS but all they had was small and it worked! I just tied the front, but I also could have tucked in the front and it wasn’t massive on me at all. The fabric was so soft and it looked WAY better on! Matt was a huge fan of this long pink cardigan (comes in other colors) it runs true to size and would go with so many different outfits.
Taupe Booties – size 8 (tts)
Leopard Midi Dress ($38.90 sale) | Steve Madden Taupe Booties ($86.90 sale)
Didn’t I say I would save the best for last? 😉 This dress is a total showstopper! It’s not as scandalous as I thought it would be (the slit doesn’t come up super high) so I would wear this on date night and possibly to work if I layered a jacket over top. It was super comfortable and the midi length was just right on me. These booties look AMAZING with it which tells me they’re the perfect booties to wear with dresses and skirts this fall!
Thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart for reading my try-on post today! It was a labor of love and I hope it helps you find some amazing fall pieces to add to your closet this season!
XO, Lauren
