It’s been a minute since I did an instagram round up for you guys! With the Nordstrom Anniversary sale going on, talking about wedding season outfits AND sharing different steals and deals on the site, I haven’t had a chance in a while. So let’s do it! Let’s go back in time, the last 3 weeks or so, and see the handful of outfits I’ve been wearing! These outfits don’t include my Nordstrom Anniversary outfits but many of those pieces are still available or are back in stock so be sure to check this post!
This top is actually one of the pieces I bought during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale and I’m SO GLAD I bought it. It’s incredibly soft, perfect to throw over a cute sports bra or workout top or even wear with a bralette! It will be awesome in fall to bundle while still showing a little skin! And these sneakers are seriously THE BEST. They have padding around the heel so you don’t lose any skin while wandering around all day. So comfy!

I sported this dress out on a double date night to Toruk (a cirque show) and I was extremely overdressed. But I’m cool with that because I’d rather be overdressed than underdressed! I recommend sizing down in the dress because it’s not a real wrap dress, it just looks like it. So the waist is a little bigger than you would think! It’s such a fun, casual dress! I wore it with these booties but I also have worn it with block heels sandals!

This dress is my absolute hands down 100% favorite dress of all time. You may have seen it before because I’ve worn it a few times! It fits like a glove and I’ve never had any issues with it…until I took it up to Grand Lake over the weekend for a wedding. When we were running late, I threw it on and the zipper decided to break out me. After being a total crying b*tch about it, I threw on my husbands suit jacket then pouted to one of my friends about it. Luckily, she’s awesome and went straight to the front desk of our hotel and asked for a sewing kit. Boom, she sewed me into my dress with thread that was the exact same color. And it stayed in place all night. So I need to go to the tailor and get it fixed, but it will be totally worth it because I plan on wearing it 100 more times!

I bought this off the shoulder top a while ago but bought it with the matching bottom, but wasn’t a huge fan of the bottom so I sent it back. But this fun floral pink top was too cute to send back! It makes me want to drink a cocktail on a patio. I have a trip coming up with Palm Springs and this will definitely be packed in my luggage!

This is my favorite outfit of this entire post. I LOVE bodysuits. I don’t want why people get so worried about going to the bathroom in them. Most clip together at the crotch so there is never an issue. What I love about bodysuits is they just look like a fitted shirt that’s tucked in and they show your shape more than a regular shirt. They are just the best!! I wore this out for a date night this week to the pre-opening of Departure Denver! If you haven’t been to Departure in Portland (GO NOW!) and you live in Colorado, get to this restaurant now. I’m going for brunch this weekend. I have a shopping and eating problem this week.

Most Thursdays, I don’t workout. But I do want to be in comfortable clothes because those days are spent running errands, cooking and cleaning. So I tend to wear workout clothes or athleisure clothes that I wouldn’t normally wear in the gym. Shorts are one of those items. I just don’t feel very comfortable wearing shorts while I workout, I feel way too exposed. But these shorts are absolutely perfect for those days. I also bought them in orange because they are that comfortable! These sneakers are also great for the casual days. These aren’t made for workouts, but if you need comfortable sneakers that you can wear all day wandering around wherever, these are perfect! I wore these all day long yesterday and could have even slept in them. I bought the same pair but in a grey rose pattern and now I want them in 5 other colors. I’ve linked all my favorites below!

I’m SO PUMPED for bootie season! Not butt season, that’s everyday! Boot and bootie season is my absolute favorite. And I love the peep toe look! I grabbed these because they are a different color than my normal booties so they pop a little more than the normal brown. And they aren’t as tall as my normal booties so they are little easier for walking around in all day!
I shared this shirt earlier in the summer and was sad to see it sell out pretty quickly. But IT’S BACK and now it comes in 5 different colors! The back is an open back so it’s still breezy even with the 3/4 sleeve. This will be a top that’s great for fall with a cute jacket! And these crop jeans are awesome! I recommend sizing down. I’m normally a size 4 and wear a 0 in these.

In case you missed it last week, I talked all about my skincare routine since dealing with cystic acne and the scars left behind from it. In the post, I talk about the skincare line that I use both in the morning and at night. And just the other day, when I told you guys about the event going on with Hautelook, a reader pointed out that the skincare line was on sale as well!! And luckily, it still is! But only for a short amount of time! I’m linking my favorites below plus the other ones I purchased from the sale! These products have seriously changed around my skin and I HIGHLY recommend them!
My Favorite Skincare Line is On Sale Right Now!!
Have an awesome, delicious and stylish weekend!!
You were overdressed for a cirque show?! What’s the world coming to. I completely agree with you though – in the words of Oscar Wilde, “you can never be overdressed or overeducated”.
I actually didn’t know he said that until I googled it just now but it’s been one of my favourite quotes for a long time.
I also agree with you about not liking to work out in shorts. I think it’s the thighs…I’m not sure, I’ve just never enjoyed it. Those shorts are super cute though. Your blog makes me want to buy all the things and I don’t have any money for the things and now I’m sad. Luckily you also have such an upbeat attitude I’m never in a bad mood when I’m done reading.
yes! NO ONE was dressed up. everyone was in jeans and a t-shirt! i love that quote, keeping that one in my back pocket!
Wow, you look stunning in the lilac dress.
I don’t like working out in shorts either. I have skinny spider legs so it’s not a thigh issue for me. I just feel too exposed. I usually only wear them when I go walking.
I also love body suits but it’s been too long since I’ve worn one. Agree they show your shape more, and I also find them more comfortable then tucking a shirt in.
way more comfortable than the tuck!
Love all of these outfits! Have you ever considered doing a post about closet organization? Wondering how you fit all of this stuff in your closet 🙂 I recently moved and I need some inspiration!!
maybe in the future sometime but it’s a pretty normal boring crammed closet at this point haha! the only thing creative and helping with space is putting my shoes in plastic shoe boxes
Hey There! Is there a certain self tanner that you use or would recommend? I love your skin color!
that skin color is just natural sun. after getting married in jamaica and being at the lake most days of the week, i get pretty dark in my legs
My good friends Stacy London and Clinton Kelly would wholeheartedly disagree with both of those statements.
Noelle, you are absolutely right…don’t want to be too matchy-matchy!!! I am also a Stacy and Clinton adherent.
I want everything! You make all the outfits look so cute. And I agree I am so excited for boots/bootie season, but not ready for the weather to get cold just yet.
I allowed myself TWO purchases at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale–one was that exact same Zella wrap hoodie (but in purple), and I want it in all three other colors. I’m very short (4’11”), so it fits long on me, almost like a tunic-y wrap top, which is PERFECT for yoga leggings, skinny jeans and sneakers, or whatever the heck I want. The other thing I bought from the NAS was this jacket (which comes in petite sizes and will be PERFECT once “fall” comes–which, in Georgia, will be something like in December. So this jacket will be perfect for me to wear at Christmas):

So on your days where you just go to the gym or work at home, do you wear workout clothes? When do you wear your jean with a cute top type outifits? As a stay at home mom I have a similar lifestyle but never want to look too under or overdressed so I always love to see what other fashion minded ladies do 🙂 by the way, after reading your skin created post I went on vivant’s site and they actually will personalize a skin care regimen for you which I thought was neat! Just a tip for any other readers. I am an aesthetician and always interested to see what’s out there!
Hi Juli!! Love love LOVE your blog, so great. The purple lace-y dress that’s on sale right now….I saw in your instagram post about it a bit ago that you’re wearing a size small. Wondering how the fit is since I want to buy it, it’s so damn cute! Is the small pretty snug on you? How’s the bust area? I’m worried about the boob area…I think I’m similar sizing as you, I usually wear a 2/4 in jeans but also got some boobs. This might be TMI haha but I’m a 32D so not sure if you’re similar sizing or not. Thanks for any info on this!
it’s really snug around the waist but good around the bust for me! i’ve a 34C (almost a D) and wear a 2/4 jeans. not sure if that helps, but hopefully it does!
Yes super helpful! Thanks Juli!
How does this bodysuit fit?! I’m worried it runs small. Thank you!
i think it runs big
