NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE: NEW MOM PICKS

Having a baby in the fall is making me feel very lucky to be able to rock leggings until I'm comfortable in my own skin again, but that doesn't mean I'm not hoping to stock up on some staple pieces. 

This year, I'd like to grab items I feel comfortable in, but that also help me look put together when out on the town with my babe or hubby. 

Here are some of the things I've been eying at the anniversary sale:

This tunic will help cover my bum, and looks super comfy. Add a gold necklace, jeans or leggings and some flats and I am set. 

Speaking of flats, I am really digging these t-strap flats for the fall with some jeans and a tunic. I love the snakeskin print and the red ones! 

This Free People sweater has a tulip back and looks super comfy. I'm skeptical about the fit, but the great thing about Nordstrom is the free shipping and easy returns so I am grabbing it in the red or green!

I'm hoping this parka doesn't sell out before the sale opens to all customers! It's only available in one size now and looks like the perfect fall jacket.

This tunic looks super comfy and extra long to cover your hips and bum. I'm going to snag it in the olive and white. 

I'm on the fence about buying these booties since I know I can snag some for cheaper, but I love the braided detail and fringe. 

Some new workout leggings are a must for the fall walks. These have great reviews!

NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE: BABY PICKS

Nordstrom's Anniversary sale is here and while I'm not a card holder, that doesn't stop me from grabbing staple items each year at a great price. 

Last year I saw the Skip Hop diaper bag on major sale and scooped it up before even being pregnant. I knew friends who had and loved the bag, so knowing we were going to be trying soon it was a no-brainer!

Check out my affordable picks this year below!

 Nordstrom has their Skip Hop Duo bag exclusive on sale again this year - and I am totally digging the black stripes! At almost $24 cheaper than you will find elsewhere, it is a total investment whether you are trying for a babe, pregnant or looking for a new diaper bag. I LOVE mine!

Print Swaddling Cloths (3-Pack) At $30, this is a great item to snag since they are typically between $45-50. We received several of these blankets for our babe and they are highly recommended. 

This CozyChic® Heathered Blanket looks so comfy. If I were a baby, I would totally reach for this blanky every time.

Although it's a little expensive for a baby sweater that will get only 3 months wear out of, the color can easily be used for boy or girl. At $24, I think it's a great purchase for a fall/winter/spring babe. I'm hoping for lots of fall outings with Ben, and this little sweater is too cute!

I registered for these floor tiles, and at almost $25 cheaper I can snag them at the anniversary sale. SOLD! I love that the tiles are neutral and will fit in with our home. This will be my favorite baby buy this year!
