Nordstrom Sale: MZ Wallace Janie tote
It's time for the big Nordstrom sale, which means up to 40% off on lots of goodies I might have kept on my wish list for a whole lot longer. Here, my 5 favorite fashionable items I'm crushing on right now that I hope you love too. CMP is a reward style affiliate.  1. It's no secret that I'm an MZ Wallace junkie and for good reason; the nylon makes them great all weather bags. For summer, I need something smaller and preferably brighter, which is why this gorgeous blue satchel caught my eye, especially since it can be worn as a crossbody bag. (Was $325, now $194.98)   

2. I've been doing my best to find fun, Birkenstock alternatives for the past two seasons now. These Joie slide sandals fit the bill, adding what I think is a sleeker, more modern twist on almost everyone's favorite crunchy sandal. (Was 140, now 93.80)  

3. I cannot tell you how much I love the versatility of a chambray shirt in the spring (and summer). It can easily be worn alone with shorts or a skirt, or pop it over a t-shirt or tank. I'm loving the dark thread detail and the covered buttons on this Sam Edelman chambray shirt, that I think makes it a little more special than many of the ones I've seen. (Was $89, now $53.40)  

4. During the summer months, I often forgo a clutch for the more practical wristlet. This Rebecca Minkoff wristlet is stylish and fits an iPhone 6 (maybe I need to upgrade). Plus, the neutral color means I can sport it with anything. (Was $130, now $80.98).  

5. And I just couldn't help myself with this No Filter necklace. I love a little Instagram humor and a play on words. And the price tag doesn't hurt either.  (Was $48, now $28.80) For more of my favorite fashionable things I'm coveting, check our archives!

Eyewear that brings life to the party

At some point, most of us have accepted an inconvenient truth: reading glasses are now part of the outfit. They live on the nightstand, in the kitchen, next to the computer, and somehow always disappear precisely when we need them. But d…

We love Halloween, but there’s a fine line between festive and looking like a craft store exploded on your fingertips. If you want your nails to participate in spooky season without committing to tiny ghosts, glitter bats, and orange-and…
