Black & Blue

Bows & Sequins wearing a tweed jacket, a bow-tied blouse, black jeans, and a 3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli bag.

As much as it pains me to think about the summer ending, I always get a little bit giddy when thinking of fall clothing. And with the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale always hitting right in the middle of July, it’s the perfect time to start adding a few fall pieces to your wardrobe!

@bowsandsequins styling some of her favorite finds from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! A black and blue tweed jacket (under $50!), a bow-tied blouse (also $50!), and designer black jeans (marked down to $134 from $205) make for the perfect fashion-forward causal workday ensemble!

Designer jeans are always a few of my must-haves purchases during the sale. They’ve got all of my favorites on sale… Frame, J.Brand, Paige, etc. I found this pair of slightly distressed black denim from Hudson and knew they’d be perfect to wear now and later! You can wear them with a simple grey tee and Stan Smiths on the weekend, or dress them up with heels and a tweed jacket during the week.

Oh, and this jacket? I’m obsessed! The price will go back up to $98 when the sale is over, but it’s less than $65 now. I had a Gibson blazer a few years ago (in two colors) and wore it all fall and winter long. With this go-with-everything color combo, I have a feeling I’ll be doing the same with this one, too!

Here are a few more pairs of jeans I’m loving in the sale…

I picked up a few pieces from a brand I’ve seen at Nordstrom for a while, CeCe by Cynthia Steffe. (This blouse included!) I love how affordable, fun, and feminine the pieces are… So many pieces included in the sale, too!
