preppy home nsale

This is my last roundup for the Nordstrom Anniversary SalePhew!–but it’s definitely my favorite with the life stage I’m currently in. We need quite a bit for our new house, so I’ve loved browsing through the home section from the sale… and the girls are constantly growing out of their stuff, so we definitely did some damage in the kids’ section. ;) Mitch’s birthday is also in October, and I love that his gifts are now covered through the men’s sale! (AHEAD of the game. When has that ever happened for me?! 😂)

To enter today’s $100 giveaway to shop the sale, simply:

  • Tell us one home, kids’ or men’s product from this guide that you’d purchase with the $100, and why. :)
  • Leave your email address in the following non-spammy format so we can get in touch with you: Kelly [at] gmail [dot] com.

Barefoot Dreams Throw:

YES. I am so, so excited about this. Barefoot Dreams clothing is to die for (SO soft), and I’m finally buying the blanket for our living room since it’s on sale. (See all Barefoot Dreams sale blankets here. There are a bunch!)

Anthropologie Pitcher:

Also in my cart. I actually plan on using it as a vase since I “KonMari-ed” our old one, haha. I love the blue and white and know it’ll go perfectly in our home!

Hydrocotton Bath Mat:

This thing gets SUCH good reviews, and we’re currently without bath mats for every bathroom in our house. It’s apparently super thick, soft and absorbent. Just what we need! Getting the blue color since the Larkin Family cannot handle anything white. 😂

Chunky Knit Throw:

I thought I’d highlight this since we own it and LOVE it. It’s the stuff that Pinterest dreams are made of. It’s also the blanket featured in the first graphic of this post! Cute, right?!

Patagonia Re-Tool Pullover:

I love the women’s version, so the girls’ pullover immediately jumped out at me! I’m definitely tempted to have Emma pair it with leggings and riding boots to get that perfect college student look, haha! Anyway, it’s amazingly soft, and your daughter will ALWAYS want to wear it. Go up a size or two and cuff the sleeves so she gets several years of wear out of it. Not worth it otherwise!

Bear Hoodie:

Emma and Lucy have a Nordstrom Anniversary Sale collaboration coming up (the cutest), and I think I’m going to get them these! (There’s a baby version, too.)

Reversible Jacket:

A reversible jacket means two looks in one, which is very helpful when your kids grow like weeds and you’re down to zero coats for the upcoming fall and winter seasons. ;) That faux fur is amazingly soft and cozy, too.

boys nsael

One / Two / Three / Four / Five / Six / Seven / Eight / Nine / Ten / Eleven / Twelve / Thirteen

So impressed with how much Vineyard Vines was included in the boys’ sale. (And in the men’s!) I’m no expert in this department–#girllife haha–but these products stood out to me. :)

girls shoes

One / Two / Three / Four / Five / Six / Seven / Eight / Nine / Ten

Sparkle Mary Janes:

Emma’s preschool told us that she needs velcro or pull-on shoes for the upcoming school year, and these look adorable for days when she wears dresses! (Which will likely be every day, since she is refusing to wear pants and shorts right now, haha.) Love that little boots.

Pull-On Navy Rain Boots:

These also look great for pre-k. Boots are so hard for kids to get on and off, but the handles will surely make that easier.

Leopard Booties:

Leopard is a neutral, even for little girls.

boys shoes

One / Two / Three / Four / Five / Six / Seven / Eight / Nine

Samesies.

Maxi-Cosi Infant Car Seat/Carrier:

This is what we have for Lucy and we LOVE it. She falls asleep almost immediately when we put her in it. She’s the biggest fan, haha! It’s easy to install, and it’s compatible with Max-Cosi strollers, which is awesome because the baby never wakes up when you transport from stroller to car. It’s just snaps in and out! (Btw: this is the stroller we have which is on sale, and this is the more affordable version I love. Both are great and you really can’t go wrong.)

Smocked Dress:

This is in my cart for Lucy. SO excited about it. I saw that the designer behind Brooke & Lou recently had her favorite baby dress (of her daughter’s) framed, and it came out beautifully. Want to do that in Lucy’s room with this dress!

High Chair:

This is the high chair that’s compatible with Lucy’s bouncer… and I’m so tempted to get it!

men's clothing nsale

One / Two / Three / Four / Five / Six / Seven / Eight / Nine / Ten / Eleven / Twelve / Thirteen / Fourteen / Fifteen / Sixteen / Seventeen / Eighteen / Nineteen / Twenty / Twenty-One / Twenty-Two / Twenty-Three / Twenty-Four / Twenty-Five

Barbour Jacket:

This is the obvious winner of the men’s sale section. Barbour rarely goes on sale, and this is a jacket he’ll own for his entire life! It also comes in navy.

Vineyard Vines Plaid Performance Shirt:

Mitch is obsessed with Vineyard Vines’ Performance shirts because they’re wrinkle-resistant (no ironing!) and they keep him cool. (Great for the guy who overheats!) This pattern is great; your guy can wear it to work but also on the weekends. Love men’s stuff that can be dressed both up and down.

Vineyard Vines Checked Performance Shirt:

Another great Performance option!

Classic Sperrys:

This is a GREAT price for the Gold Cup Sperrys, which are like the original shoes but have hand-burnished leathers and 18K gold-plate details. (Here’s the women’s version, btw.) Mitch wears his literally every day, and paired with khakis and a nice button-down, they can be dressed “up,” too!

Cole Haan Penny Loafers:

We’re huge fans of Cole Haan shoes for their comfort and classic design. This penny loafer is timeless and super versatile!

Cute Slip-On White Sneakers:

Mitch would destroy these in negative five minutes, but maybe your boyfriend/fiance/husband could handle these. Love them.

Derby Shoes:

I LOVE these! I feel like there just aren’t a ton of preppy shoe options for guys, but these would look great (and different!) for work and dressier looks.
