FAQ & Shopping Tips

This is a highly shopped sale, and many products sell out quickly.  If you shop with me, I will work to keep your choices updated.  Here are a few tips in answering your most frequently asked question surrounding the sale.

·        Will items be restocked? Unfortunately, there is no way of knowing when or if sold-out items will be restocked. But I have some tips on how to snag some items when they come back…

·        Why was my order canceled? When the sale goes live, sometimes an order will go through, but you’ll get an email later that an item or your entire order has been canceled. This is completely out my control and the best thing you can do is contact Nordstrom Customer Service by calling or starting an online chat.

·        What do I do if I haven’t gotten an order confirmation? Contact Nordstrom Customer Service by calling or starting an online chat.

·        Why isn’t the website working? Each time a new tier opens for the sale, there is a massive number of people visiting the website, which slows it down or creates an issue/error page. Be patient and continue to refresh the page until you’re able to get through or the Nordstrom team can fix the problem.

·        What size should I get? Different brands fit differently. Use the size charts, measure your inseam, bust, waist and hips when you are unsure.  You can also order 2 sizes and return the one that didn’t fit.

·        How do I make sure I get what I want?

1.       Buy high-demand items as soon as your tier becomes eligible to shop. You can check out multiple times so as soon as you have those items in your basket check out…before you browse.

2.       DO NOT do order pickup in-store for anything popular. Your order will be filled after online orders and in-store purchases. Many of these items end up getting canceled. You can certainly do this for staples that don’t typically sell out.

3.       If you want something that is sold out, check on that item multiple times a day. Or better yet have the app downloaded to your phone, save that item to favorites using the heart.  When it’s back in stock you will get an alert, make sure your alerts are ON. Many items pop back into stock in one size just for a few minutes during the sale. This is usually due to returns.

4.       If you are unsure of what size, BUY 2 sizes. You can always return whenever size does not work. Returns are easy!

5.       Similarly, if you think you like something, order it. You can always return the size that didn’t work.  Returns are easy!

6.       Make sure you’re signed into your Nordstrom account before you start shopping. Adding everything to your cart and being slowed down by having to sign in could result in sold-out items.

 

Here are just a few Hidden Gems I’ve been eyeing. 

 

Denim and Trousers.

There are so many great deals on denim and trousers it’s hard to chose just a couple. These Veronica Beard Taylor High Waist in Lakeshore do not disappoint. With a raw hem they are sure to fit most heights and a savings of almost $100 coming in at $189.90.

Another favorite is the Joes Honey Curvy Bootcut Jean. These jeans fit in all the right places and the dark denim (Rikki) takes any outfit up- a steal at $99.90

Who doesn’t want a pair of faux leather pants? These Vince Camutos look great with loafers, Chelsea boots or a point toed bootie. Loving the $65.99 price point!

A nice versatile flare pant on trend with the high waist, the Open Edit Flare at $41.90

 

For the Home

I couldn’t help myself. I love Chenille bedspreads and this with the matching pillow case just speaks summer to me! A decorative cutting board is sure to dress up any kitchen. There are rectangle shapes and other designs to choose from too!

 

Totes, Handbags, and Beauty

This Proenza Schouler extra large coated canvas tote is beyond GORGEOUS! The Clare V. Marisol Crossbody bag goes with everything in this neutral green.

Years ago I was turned on to Trish McEvoy’s brushes - nothing compares! Invest in these you will not regret.

Laura Mercier’s trio eyeshadows offers 12 hour wear while delivering a crease-and transfer- resistant long lasting finish.

 

Activewear

O.K. this was hard. But I have to say Alo is one of my new favorite brands for activewear. High quality, fit and performance. I love this high neck bra worn with the high waisted leggings.

Zella is such a player- throw this half zip over your bra and leggings for a Studio-to-Street look!

Need some great socks? Bombas are the Bomb!

 

Camisoles and Skirts

These camisoles are regular stand-by’s for me and my clients. The raw edge tank adds just a touch of rebel and the 1.State pintuck cami looks great alone or under a blouse, sweater or blazer

Halogen’s faux leather midi skirt is edgy and cool yet still appropriate for the smart business look.

Slip skirts are still a thing and this Vince is perfect to dress up or down.

 

Coats, Dresses and Boots!

Coats & shoes are so important to your style! This Sam Edelman trench is sexy and water-resistant!

I had to show this Julia Jordan faux wrap dress- it’s too pretty to pass by and I love this designer- she designs for women’s bodies.

White boots are HOT this season and for fall and winter a waterproof boot is a must- these Blondo’s look fabulous while keeping your feet dry.

This Linea Paolo is so beautiful in the patten leather and I love the squared off toe!

Veronica Beard does it again with this suit in it’s On-point color-Merlot what could be sharper?
