When it comes to my wardrobe, I have to admit – when I love something, I love it hard.  Gladiator sandals were in, I wore them to DEATH.  Stretchy culottes of the 2000s?  I had every color.  Comfy, cozy loungewear and all the matching sets of 2020?  You know I went all in, and I’m not ditching a single piece yet.  (In fact I’m just doubling down and grabbing more sets and comfy basics for spring, #NoRegrets.)

And in addition to the loungewear love I’ve currently got a big ole thing for jumpsuits.  (To be fair, I’ve kind of always got a thing for jumpsuits, but they’re currently in heavy rotation around here.)  It started with the tailored, strong shoulder version above and pretty much took off from there.  If you’re digging the look like I am, scroll around below for a few of my faves at a bunch of different price points, including two that are under $20.

Hope everyone has a great rest of their week!

Look who busted out of quarantine!  (I kid, I kid – as I mentioned in this post, I shot a few spring looks ahead of time without even realizing the days that were coming.)  So today I’m sharing my favorite new PJ set that I fully intend to exclusively wear in public once, you know, going in public is cool again.

Way back in February (seems like a year ago), I found myself roaming around Target looking for a gift for a one-year-old’s birthday party.  And what do you know I somehow found myself in the loungewear department?  Y’all, if you’ve been sleeping on the Stars Above loungewear at Target, it’s time to quit hitting snooze because it is GOOD.  I ended up leaving with this set, this favorite set, and the striped pieces above.  (And a gift for the one-year-old.)

The pieces are beyond soft and can be worn together or separate.  (You can see the sweater paired with jeans here.)  The shorts will also be super cute with a simple white tee during summer months.  Each piece is under $20 and perfect for this current quarantine climate in SoCal.  And should you find yourself in the shopping mood, the sneakers, sunglasses, and favorite Gorjana necklace are all on sale.

What’s the most exciting day of the month in your house?  If you’ve ever been to our house on BarkBox delivery day, then you already know what day that is.  (For the four-legged family members, at least.)  We’ve been BarkBox subscribers for about two years now (before little Wilma came along), and let’s just say that it certainly hasn’t lost its luster on these two pups.

Every month the box has a different theme – based on the time of year, holidays, awards season (aptly named “The Barkies”), pop culture, you name it – and every month Weeze and Wilma go wild.  (I’ll be sharing a little video of that on my Instagram stories later today – stay tuned.)  Every box comes with two toys, two full-sized bags of treats, and one chew, but you can upgrade to add on more.  (These spoiled pups receive three toys per month.)

Weeze and Wilma obviously love a box full of treats and toys, but what I love is the quality.  Despite our crazy chewers, we still have some toys around the house from some of the very first boxes we received.  The treats and chews are all-natural, sourced only from the US and Canada, and never contain wheat, soy, or corn.  Also, I LOVE that the subscription is customizable.  Our pups have allergies to chicken, so we avoid all food and treats that contain chicken.  (If you’ve ever searched through ingredients in dog food or treats, you know that chicken is in EVERYTHING.)  I let BarkBox know about their allergies, and we never receive anything that contains chicken.  Never.  It’s so nice to receive high quality treats for them every month without reading through a ton of different ingredient labels at the store.

Really, the only downside to BarkBox is that now I’ve got two crazy Vizslas thinking that every package that comes to the door is theirs.  (Kidding – they can sniff out a BarkBox pretty quickly.)  If you’ve been thinking of subscribing, your furry family members are wondering what you’re waiting for.  Use code NIKKI10 (must be capitalized) to receive your first box for $10 when you sign up for 6 or 12 months.

Hope your doggos love it as much as ours do!

Happy Friday, friends!  If you haven’t heard from the 17,486,900 other bloggers out on the interwebs, the Nordstrom Anniversary sale hits this week.  Big card holders have been shopping for a couple of days, but today at 9:30 PST the sale hits for all card holders.  (Including me – and side note, I don’t have a Nordstrom credit card, I have the Nordstrom debit card so it’s the same as shopping with my own debit card.)

Anywho, it’s one of my favorite sales of the year because it’s brand new stuff on sale, things that are just hitting the site.  Full disclosure, I feel like in previous years I’ve overdone this sale big time – BIG TIME.  And this year I promise not to.  But, I’ve combed and combed and found some things that I feel are totally worth shopping.  I wanted to narrow it down to 25, but here we are at 50.

This year, there are a few things I’ll be zeroing in on:

Activewear – Let’s face it, I pretty much live in activewear these days, from the gym to the grocery story to the dog walk, and the Anniversary Sale always has some great finds.

A new bra from Chantelle – If you’re busty, this brand is awesome.  I’ve had their bras for years, and they’re both supportive and pretty.  There are a couple of good ones included in this year’s sale.

Anything Madewell – It’s one of my favorite brands of the moment, and there are some great pieces in the sale.  Last year I found the prettiest Madewell dress in the sale, and I’m OBSESSED with their denim.

Wear right now dresses – In years past, I tried to stock up on fall finds because there are just so many great boots, sweaters, and jackets, but fall in Southern California is still pretty hot.  So this year I’m focusing on things I can wear right now and not have to store away for months.

Something Barefoot Dreams – It’s always one of the most popular brands in the sale, and this year, I’m snagging something in their cozy, delicious fabric.  We have a trip to Idaho coming up in the next couple of weeks, and I’m thinking this cardigan or this wrap would be perfect for the flight and chilly nights there.  (Or perhaps I need both?)

So I’m headed to the store today to see what I can snag, but if online is more your jam, feel free to scroll below for the pieces that I think are totally worth it.  And if you find something I’ve missed, let me know, girl!  It’s like Black Friday shopping without the turkey hangover, so let’s do this, shall we?

Happy Black Friday, friends!  Last night we stayed up way past my bedtime so my mom and I could start pulling out their Christmas decorations, so I thought I might sleep in this morning.  But nope – you can’t keep me from a good sale.  I popped up and have been shopping the sales in my pajamas all morning long.  (You can see a roundup of some of my favorite sales here.)

This year I’m determined to get some of my Christmas shopping done during the Black Friday sale-fest, so I’m making my list and hitting the sites.  And while you’re checking off names, you might as well snag a little something for yourself, right?  Now that Thanksgiving is over, it’s officially time to start thinking about those upcoming holiday parties, and one of my favorite brands for holiday dress goodness Parker NY is currently offering 30% off of everything with code CELEBRATE.

This little tie-neck frock can easily be dressed up or down with heels or over-the-knee boots, and I love the tiered skirt.  (Check out this similar solid black style that’s on super sale with an additional 30% off today.)  I’m still obsessed with this sequined mini from last year, and this year it comes in a beautiful burgundy version.  Swoon.  Parker makes the most buttery soft leather pieces, and really, you can’t go wrong with whatever you choose.  The Parker pieces in my wardrobe are all pieces that I’ll keep season after season, year after year.

So if there’s a soiree or two in your near future, head over to Parker this weekend to kick things off in style.  Happy shopping, everyone!
