Whether you’re looking to fill some voids in your closet, or just pick up a few new items – pretty much every retailer out there, is competing for your dollars this weekend!
Today, I popped on over to the mall, to check out the Nordstrom Fall Clearance Sale, pick up a few items at Sephora, and return a few things to Banana Republic – OMG, it was a zoo!
If you want to skip my adventure at the mall, and head straight to my Nordstrom Sale re-cap, just scroll on down.
First stop, Uniqlo, as I wanted to pick up a few layer tees.
I love HEATTECH tees.
They are great for layering; nice and thin, super soft, and warm.
Now on promo, for $12.90
I went to purchase a black turtleneck, and off white long sleeve crew. I had to pull the sales person aside to confirm that what I saw, was really a line – across the store!
Yep, it was.
He said it had been like that since 6am. Welcome to the ARIGATO (thank you) SALE! (HERE)
Guess those layer tees will have to wait.
After waiting in another line, to pick up my coffee powder at Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf (can’t live without it in my morning coffee), I headed to Sephora.
Eeek! Another crazy line – some kind of event happening over here as well!
It was WAY worse in real life -trust me!
I begged my darling sales gal, to ring me up on her mobile, and just send my items to my house – the 2-3 day wait time, versus waiting in this line, was well worth it.
Make Up Forever Aqua Rouge #14, HERE.
They were really excited over there, about these new, Make Up Forever false eyelashes. Not for me – but, here’s a look:
$18.00 HERE
Next, down to Banana Republic to do a few returns.
I was planning to return this Cruella De Vil wool coat, until I realized this $328.00 coat was now under $40.00! What?
So, I processed all my returns, and for the price of 2 lunches, I am still the owner of a 101 Dalmatians coat. Heck, wear it now, and next Halloween! I can’t find a link online, but it’s marked down to $59.90, plus additional 40% off. Style #88200 (spotted cocoon coat).
It runs a bit large, and it’s a tad itchy – I sized down when I did my exchange, to an XS. It’s tighter around the bottom, but since I like it slightly unzipped, or worn open – the XS fit my shoulders better. Stay tuned.
On my way out, I spotted this darling vest:
So cute! I love the asymmetrical zipper.
Ran true to size, this is a small | $138.00| HERE
I’m sure it will be on promo soon!
I liked these pieces as well.
The Grey Cotton Moto Cocoon Coat looks like the same cut as the Dalmation one above, for fit referance.
Next up, the Nordstrom Sale!
Previously the Nordstrom 1/2 Yearly Sale, it’s now referred to, as the Nordstrom Fall Clearance Sale.
In addition to markdowns, there is a load of price matching happening, to compete with Bloomingdales and Macys this weekend.
I was short on time, and limited in what I could try on; but if you are looking for denim, sweaters, coats and boots – you may want to take a look!
Here’s a few of my picks:
I’m loving wrap coats right now.
I love the ‘Mackenzie’ Coat from DVF – just marked down.
Yes, it’s pricey – but ladies, it’s reversible!
Lots of premium denim on sale.
My reviews on the Hudson Mia Flare, and AG Skyline Skinny, HERE.
And boots.
There was a lot of price matching going on, in the contemporary lines, such as DVF, Vince and premium denim lines.
Here’s just a peek:
Vince
DVF
Here’s a look at the DVF Hathaway blouse on.
You can wear it open or as a jewel neck. In select solids and prints -on sale.
Nordstrom Rack has got it going on this weekend, with 25% extra, off already reduced clearance items, in store and oneline, thru 11/11.
Last up, Anthropologie.
Take 20% off all tops and sweaters with code ‘TOPITOFF’
I’ll take it all! All 3 outfits please! This is a great time to pick up blouses, sweaters, and tees.
This wool wrap coat caught my eye – available in 4 colors.
And yes, its’s 20% off as it is a sweater coat – last time I checked that is.
20% off $198.00

November 7, 2015 at 2:25 pmI love your “Cruella De Vil wool coat!” It looks fabulous and is a steal!!!
I’m traveling to Europe in December and am currently debating whether I need a new winter coat. The answer is actually yes (I need a truly warm coat), but I don’t want to spend too much money on a coat I don’t get to wear very much around here… We shall see. I also need to pick up an outfit for a couple fancy holiday events I’ll be attending in Europe, and I plan on using my Banana 50% off family and friends coupon. Hope I’ll find what I’m looking for!

November 7, 2015 at 3:23 pmHi Andrea! Yes, you need a warm coat in Europe! I couldn’t find my coat on line or the other fab deals that were in the store. But, at the store they had quite a few coat styles, marked down real cheap and then an additional 40% off! Good luck at Banana, they have some great Holiday pieces right now as well! xx
