You know the drill…the shots aren’t good, the lighting is bad, my hair is usually past it’s expiration, and many of the items aren’t a good fit for me…but it’s real life, real girl, real clothes…and hopefully helpful for you to see them this way, instead of perfectly styled on a model.
And yep, Mama Sugarplum came, too! Let’s get after it, shall we?

Sidenote: Everything fits true-to-size unless I indicate otherwise. And fyi, I’m 5’4″-ish, 120 pounds-ish, with a slight pear shape. My usual size is an XS/0. Mama Sugarplum is 5’2″, with an hourglass figure. Her usual size is M/8.

I simply cannot get enough of your mama. xo
"Young boobs" made me lol. You looked great in everything, but I really loved that wine colored blazer thingy on you and your mama! And I certainly hope you got those pajamas. Because DARLING.
I'm dying over all of little miss' outfits! I ordered the plaid shirt dress and it's coming today! You and your mom are cute together!
I forgot to ask about the converse… Will you keep wearing the white into fall? I want a pair but wondering if the grey would be a better fall color.
Yes ma'am….I plan on wearing the white ones until I can no longer get away with no socks! Or until my desire to wear booties all the time takes over! 😉 xo
I feel like it is my duty to make a comment about the Baby Foot Exfoliation. This stuff is amazing!!!! It was totally gross/facinating a week later as my feet were peeling! My feet have never looked and felt better! I know I've used a lot of exclamation but serious this stuff is facinating!
Thank you for the great recommendation.
Thanks again!
LOL…yay, I'm so glad you liked it!!! It's definitely horrifyingly amazing! Is it weird that I can hardly wait for my feet to get icky again so I can use the product again!!?? 😉 xo
I love these Nordstrom posts! You look fabulous! On a side note, I am bringing a picture of your haircut to my hairdresser this weekend- I am a fellow cowlick sufferer lol- yours always looks great.
That dang cowlick rules my life!!! It certainly has a mind of it's own…side swoop bangs for life! 😉 xo
Buy.The.HalterShiftDress.Now!! It is absolutely adorable on you. The pink neckline makes it pop.
Your mom is darling! Would love to see a close-up of her hair (front and back). I love seeing how you both style the same items. It helps me see how things can be age appropriate for me.
Hopefully I can sweet talk her into the Dressing Room with me again soon, and I'll get better shots of her hair! In the meantime, check out my Mother's Day tea post a few months back…it has more pics of her! xo
Oh.my.goodness. Love so many things here. (I do love your hair straight, btw). That hooded vest thingy needs to be in my closet!!! And that plaid tunic!! It feels so wrong to be looking at fall clothes when it's 98 degrees outside, but I said several weeks ago I was ready for fall clothes!!!
And Little Miss is adorable in her clothes. I wish my daughters liked shopping at the dept stores. One is all about Dick's Sporting Goods and the other is very brand specific…you know, Abercrombie, Holister..you get my point!!
I have one of those, too! 🙂
My 10yo daughter also picked out the mini kitty cardi! She was so excited that we'll be matching, and I'm glad she shares my style 🙂 And always love these posts!
I could hardly believe it's the same sweater!!!?? She was always stealing mine anyway, so it's just as well she has her own now! 🙂 xo
The belted short coat is super cute on both you and your mom!
I loved that red skirt and so wanted to keep it because of the pockets but they pooched out a little on me. I loved that Treasure & Bond sweater but agree..it ran large and I sent it back as well. And Sloan looks adorbs..I tried to get that first dress for my Carly Jo and she snubbed it.
PS….I really hope you kept that striped TopShop dress…looks amazing on you!
If you don't buy that cute halter dress for your trip, I'll buy it for you!!
Um, deal! 😉
I love that belted coat/blazer. Hope you bought it! Those pjs are cute too
Oh, and the funnel neck sweater vest is rad. 👍🏻
I really liked that first dress, chunky sweater vest, tshirt, and plaid shirt. You and your mom always look so cute together.
Oops to post above! Love the blue and white dress with the pink straps! Looks like it can be dressed up or dressed down as well. Super cute!
Hi Honey, You and your mom look so cute, more like sisters. I love the bl/wh dress…perfect on your good shape. Shopping big sales can almost be overwhelming. I like window shopping and thinking of something I already have that is similar…that helps when the sales come around. Bless you, xoxo, Susie
Thanks so much, Susie!! I'm thrilled the posts are helpful in weeding through all the great options! xo
Question! Are you wearing no show socks with those tan Vince Camuto booties? Or no socks? I got the black pair (and the grey pair…whoops! Dang sale!) but not sure what to do on the sock situation…?! In other news…I am STALKING those Vince Camuto peep toe booties in the tan color like a CRAZY PERSON!!!!! So kicking myself for not getting them sooner. #mighthavetopayfullprice
I'm so annoyed at how quickly things sold out in the sale!!! And yes, I'm wearing both booties no socks. (Prob one of the reasons why sizing down half is a good idea.) I've worn them several times already with no issues! xo
You always look fabulous and these dressing room diaries are a favorite! I've always been hesitant ordering from Nordstrom because I don't have one nearby and can't try on anything! But this time I couldn't resist…hello fall style with sale prices! I ordered the side slit sweater in the green, the gray jeans (from last diary post) and the split neck mixed media tunic in navy! I'm so excited! A little splurge on this rainy day!
I'm so glad I found your blog. I am loving your posts. I've ordered several items from your Nordstrom sale posts. I've quickly fallen in love with the Caslon tees and I'm wondering if you machine dry yours?
I'm thrilled the posts are helpful and inspiring!! yes…I wash and dry my tees (on low heat) xo
