Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2019 Details & Sneak Peek at all my Favorites from the Sale!

July 9, 2019 Beauty, Style, Uncategorized 5 Comments

The 2019 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is almost here!

This is, without a doubt, my favorite sale of the year! I have been shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale for 16 years now, so I like to think that I know what I am talking about. I’m going to give you the full scoop on the Nsale + all the need-to-know details so you’ll be fully prepared to shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale strategically and stress-free.

WHAT IS THE NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE?

It’s one of the most highly anticipated sales of the year! I know that sounds over-the-top, but trust me, it’s not. I look forward to this sale every year and I plan for it! I mark my calendar for this sale like it’s a holiday and I always have an appointment for the first day of the sale at 10am. I am so prepared for this sale that it’s like a mission! Seriously, how can you not love a sale when all the new items for fall are up to 40% OFF! It’s like a dream come true! They have amazing deals on beauty products with special gift set! Estee’ Lauder and Lancome have always had a gift with purchase during this event, so it’s a fabulous time to stock up or try new products! I even do most ALL of my Christmas shopping during Nordstrom Anniversary Sale because it allows me to purchase more lavish gifts at a super great price + FREE shipping on everything!

The NSale is all about fall and will include items across all departments, which is why it’s also a great time to shop for not only for yourself and family, but for Christmas, birthday gifts, hostess gifts, and baby gifts.

WHEN IS THE NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE?

SURPRISE SNEAK PEEK!!! WITH ALL THE LINKS RIGHT HERE! RIGHT NOW!

That’s right! I scoured through over 10,000 links and found the best of the best for you! Below, you will find out more info about the Nsale and below that you will find pictures of all my fave’s including women’s everyday style picks, work wear, and home/gifts. When I have more time, I will try to add in more home, men’s and kids.

HOW CAN YOU SHOP THE SALE EARLY?

Early access is KEY to this sale, because things literally fly off the shelves! Items sell out extremely fast. Most items will sell out before public access shopping begins! I will repeat – to ensure you have full access to the sale before things sell out, you need to have early access. To do so, you need to be a Nordstrom cardholder . Cardholders get to shop the sale a FULL WEEK before everyone else, both in store and online. This will give you access to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale on July 11th, while everyone else won’t have access until July 19th. To become a Nordstrom cardholder, sign up HERE.

NOTE: Just because you get the Nordstrom card, it doesn’t mean you have to use it to purchase your items. If you’re someone who doesn’t like to use credit cards, you can just apply for the card and then purchase your items with whatever payment method you choose. You just have to HAVE a card to get the early access.

SHOPPING STRATEGY

Shop the catalog first. Now, there is SO much more that will be a part of the NSale that is not in the catalog. The catalog is really just a tease and to be honest, it’s never really a good tease, because I am never really impressed with the catalog. But, there are several things in there that I know I want, so I start making my list and I include those items. Then, I prepare myself for a fun day of shopping the sales at the store!

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM ME

FOR THE NSALE?

I will be sharing everything that I love and buy from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale . Once the sale goes live, I will start curating and sharing the my favorite and best deals! I will be sharing all the best finds from all departments throughout the sale. I will be doing try-on sessions for you as well! I’ll be sharing pictures of the items I purchase; the things I liked and the things that I’ll be returning.

SNEAK PEEK OF MY CATALOG FAVS!

You can click these links now and they will show you the item and the price, but you can’t add to cart until the sale is live. Once it’s live, then you can add to your cart and shop away! Remember to tune in to my IG stories on July 10th for the try on. I will save it to my highlight, too!

Click the images for a sneak peek and shop the items as soon as the sale starts!

These are just a few of the options in this clickable picture. If you would like to see more, scroll through below to see all the styles and remember that all these styles most likely come in several solid options as well. So, if you love the style, but not the print, click to see the options!

Everyday Holly Blog Weekly Roundup – May Week 2

May 12, 2019 Style, Uncategorized, Weekly Round Ups 2 Comments

Happy Mother’s Day Mama’s! I hope you all had the best Mother’s Day! I hope you celebrated exactly how you wanted to on your special day.

Thinking about a theme that sums up this week and I can only think of cute and cozy style along with getting all around summer ready. Cozy summer outfits that were ahhhmazing prices, an amazing summer cocktail, all the swim essentials and getting your summer bod ready with an at home workout that only takes 24 minutes max!

Everyday Holly Weekly roundup Amazon fabletics at home workout one piece swimsuit BSB Brown Sugar Bourbon LOFT

I was never really a romper fan for two reasons, they always fit me a little funny because I have a longer torso and the whole bathroom thing – awkward!

But, the romper trend is here and BIG, so I was on the hunt to find to one and I found a winner with this one! It’s so good and forgiving, so its great for normal, short and long torsos! And, it has pockets! That’s a win!

This romper will be perfect for your hot summers. It’s lightweight and the fabric is so soft!

And, how cute is this bralette? It’s so cute and it’s perfect paired with this romper!

Romper ~ Bralette ~ Sandals

First, let me tell you that I never liked bourbon! Never! That is until now! Have you tasted BSB Brown Sugar Bourbon from Heritage Distilling? It’s a game-changer! It tastes SO unbelievably delicious!

Heritage Distilling has a ton a great cocktail recipes on their website and I found one that is sooo good! It tastes like a refreshing dessert.

This is THE perfect summer momiform! These chambray shorts are the most flattering cut! They are soft, cozy and they have pockets! The drawstring works, too! Pair with a cute top and sandals and you are set for the day!

Shorts ~ Top ~ Sandals

I’ve always been a two-piece girl, because of that longer torso issue I have and it usually makes one-pieces uncomfortable. But, I found a couple really cute one-pieces this year and they work great for longer torsos! This is one of them and it’s under $30! I fell in the love with the rose gold rivets and lace up sides.

Swimsuit ~ Hat ~ Sandals ~ Sunnies ~ Bag ~ Bracelet ~ Earrings ~ Bum Bum ~ Sunscreen

It wasn’t planned in the slightest! I started an IGTV channel and it was completely spur of the moment. I had several requests to share what I do for my workouts, so I filmed a quick at home workout that doesn’t need any equipment. It was too long for stories, so just like that, I started IGTV!

I’ll admit, this first video is rough! But, I want to make more and I want to make them better! Stay tuned for more!

My workout style is all Fabletics! Let me tell you that I have been getting monthly outfits from Fabletics for several months and I am SO impressed! The quality and fit are spot on and I have been choosing to wear my Fabletics over all my other workout pieces! And, the prices are too amazing to pass up!

Vine Vera Skincare Review

May 4, 2019 Beauty, Uncategorized 1 Comment

A Review of the Vitamin C Collection +
the TORCHĒ V2+

Vine Vera Product review Torche V2+ anti aging skincare

My age hit a another mini-milestone and I am half-way to another decade! Yes, at 45 I am really starting to see the signs of aging! I am always looking for products and tools that can help slow the physical signs of again down, because I still think I am 30! I really do! I always forget that I am well into my 40’s!

When Vine Vera reached out to me, I was more than thrilled to try out Vine Vera’s Vitamin C Collection & TORCHĒ V2+! I love skincare and wine, so this seems like a match made in heaven! I have been using these products for about a month now and I ready to share my results with you!

About Vine Vera

Vine Vera is a luxury skin care line where their products revolve around resveratrol. Resveratrol is a powerful antioxidant found in the skin of red grapes. It is thought to cleanse your body of impurities and helps in preventing the appearance of aging signs such as fine lines and wrinkles.
When applied topically, your skin can soak up all the beautifying benefits of this wondrous ingredient, leaving your skin feeling radiantly smooth and younger looking.

The Vitamin C Collection

Vine Vera Vitamin C Skincare collection plus TORCHE V2+ Review - Everyday Holly Blog

This collection consists of these products:

These are all included in the Vine Vera Vitamin C Collection, but you can purchase each item individually, so I will go over each one so you can see if you need it in your skincare regimen. For each product, I will first tell you the products purpose and claims followed by my personal review and thoughts.

I will conclude this blog post with my final thoughts at the end.

Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser

The Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser will leave your skin looking radiant. Formulated with Resveratrol Ferment extract, vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), vitamin A (Retinyl Palmitate) and Aloe, your skin will feel beautiful and refreshed. Use the Resveratrol Vitamin C Cleanser to achieve a feel of smooth and refreshed skin.

This product has a wonderful smell and feels amazing. I enjoy using morning and night. It leaves my skin feeling perfectly clean and not too oily or too dry. I am truly enjoying this cleanser!

Resveratrol Vitamin C Peeling

Use the Resveratrol Vitamin C Peeling as part of your daily skincare routine to remove traces of makeup, dirt and oil, and reveal a beautiful appearance. Blended with Resveratrol Ferment extract, vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) and Vitamin A (Retinyl Palmitate) derivatives, your skin is left feeling refreshed and clean.

This product is one-of-a-kind amazing! I have never used anything like it! It is gel-like constancy that you apply to a clean face in gentle circular motions and it exfoliates your skin beautifully! My face feels so clean and fresh after using this peel!

Resveratrol Vitamin C Lip Balm

The Resveratrol Vitamin C Lip Balm is infused with potent ingredients to help protect and maintain healthy lips. Let your lips taste nature with healing ingredients like avocado oil, shea butter and vitamin C. Use the Resveratrol Vitamin C Lip Balm to soothe and hydrate chapped lips.

It says to use this as often as you want, but I only used it at night as part of my nighttime routine. I love the way my lips feel with this on and they leave my lips feeling hydrated and smooth.

Resveratrol Vitamin C Serum

Resveratrol Vitamin C Serum is infused with Resveratrol Ferment extract, Vitamin A (Retinyl Palmitate) and Vitamin C (Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate) derivatives to leave your skin looking radiant. Enjoy the beautifying benefits of this rich serum.

I love the smell and feel of this serum! I use this at night and my skin feels so soft, hydrated and smooth in the morning. I would recommend using this sparing if you have normal to oily skin like mine.

TORCHĒ V2+

Now lets talk about about the TORCHĒ V2+ by Jelessi! I was extremely excited about this device as it’s supposed to really help with signs of aging!

Restore radiance to your complexion with the Torchē V2+ by Jelessi. This powerful treatment delivers red LED infrared technology to help target fine lines, wrinkles and maturing areas of your face and neck. Experience a renewed youthfulness in both the look and feel of your skin, as it begins to exude a visibly smoother, stronger and age-defying appearance.

To achieve optimal results, use 3 times per week for three consecutive weeks. After three weeks of usage, continue to use once per week for maintenance.

This device is FDA Cleared, dermatologist approved, and patent pending. It also comes with a lifetime warranty.

Red LED light is known for speeding up collagen synthesis and enhancing cellular repair. It was the original therapy utilized by NASA in medical care. Red light energy stimulates the mitochondria (the power generators) in cells so that they function optimally, boosting the production of collagen and elastin and in turn slowing the signs of premature aging and environmental damage.

I used this as directed and I loved the way skin felt after each use. I do feel that it is getting firmer and I look forward to seeing the continued and improving results. Keep in mind that this device takes time to use and you need to use it consistently for the best results. It takes about 24 minutes total each treatment, but I feel it’s worth it for all the benefits.

My final thoughts

I have truly enjoyed using this entire line of products. The packaging is beautiful, I love the ease of use, and the smell is divine – think of the ripest and juiciest oranges! My skin feels absolutely amazing!

I enjoy using the TORCHĒ V2+ and I really feel like it’s making a difference in my skin. It’s easy to use and my skin feels amazing after using it.

I love the Resveratrol Vitamin C Peeling and the Torchē V2+ most out of this collection. Both provide amazing results. Vine Vera offers many other collections that target specific skin care concern so make sure to check those here!

I hope you found this helpful!

Sephora VIB Sale 2019 Favorites!

April 27, 2019 Beauty, Uncategorized 2 Comments

It only comes twice a year!

It’s the Sephora VIB Sale!!!

I am so excited to share my Sephora favorite with you! Most of these products are my go-to’s over all others and let me tell you, I have tried a lot of products! Now, keep in mind that I use more products and have even more go-to’s that what is listed here, but Sephora does not carry everything. I have more of my beauty and makeup favorites listed under ‘Beauty Must Haves’ in my blog sidebar, so make sure to check those out.

But first, what is this sale all about? Well, let me tell you!

The Sephora VIB Sale is a sale for Sephora’s Beauty Insiders and all that means is that you sign up for a free account. That’s it! Once you sign up, you are officially a Sephora VIB! Now there are 3 levels of a Sephora VIB and as you can see, I happen to be a VIB, which means that I spent at least $350, but less that $1000 last year at Sephora. One thing this does not tell you is that as a Beauty Insider you will save 10%, as a VIB you will save 15%, and as a Rouge you save 20% during the sale.

Sale Dates: The sale takes place from 5/2/19 – 5/6/19 for Beauty Insiders and VIB levels and if you are a Rouge level, then you can start shopping on 4/26.

Check out all the benefits of the different levels below in this picture…

So, you might be asking, “what is the big deal?” Well, most all of these items never go on sale, so it’s a great time to stock up or try something that you have been wanting, but do not want to pay full price.

Here is my list of my skin care products products that I use just about everyday or on the regular.

Here are my skin care tools

Here is list of my makeup go-to’s

Hair Care Faves

Love these value sets

That sums it up!

As always, please ask me any questions or if you need recommendations, please ask! I LOVE helping and sharing!
