Hey, friends! Today’s post is SUPER exciting… we have a guest poster 🙂 And she’s my best friend and mom, Carla (aka Carcar!). Today, my mom will be sharing her picks and reviews from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (which opens to the public TOMORROW!). She picked out some really cute stuff this year that I think y’all are going to love! So without further ado, she’s going to take over from here…
“Hi, I’m Caitlin’s mom and I’m back again this year with my favorite Nsale picks! If you are new to Southern Curls and Pearls then you might not know I’m usually the one behind the camera lens taking the photos. Hope you guys don’t mind us switching it up today, but a few of you requested this post and rest assured Caitlin will be back tomorrow. 😉 For sizing reference, I’m 5’4” and usually wear a size 2 or small.
Review: Great fitting versatile tee that’s made a little longer, which I really like and the material is a good weight. Wearing an XS.
Price: $17.90, marked down from $25
Review: So give me all the long cardigans!! Love them all and this grey one is another win in my book. Can be worn with jeans, dresses, skirts and even shorts. Wearing a XS petite.
Price: $$49.90, marked down from $79
Review: I bought my first pair of Paige jeans at the Nsale last year and seriously wore them so much and they still look great today. This year’s version is not as dark of a wash and I like them even more than last year’s! They have just the right amount of stretch and are very flattering. Wearing a size 26 instead of my usual 27.
Price: $99.90, marked down from $189
Item: B.P. Multi Stripe Scarf
Review: This scarf is reversible, and I love both sides of it! It has really pretty hues of light blue, navy and brown.
Price: (Sold out! Check tomorrow and it may be restocked)
Review: This was one of my favorite items from the sale. Not only is it really cute and comfy but I can wear it now and this fall with a cardigan. The fit is true to size. Wearing a size small and it has a little extra room but still a great fit. I like that it’s a little longer and falls just a couple inches above my knees.
Price: $29.90, marked down from $45
Review: I think this cardigan looks so cute paired with the ruffle T-shirt dress. Can’t wait to wear it with jeans in cooler weather. I’ll be living in this cardigan this fall!! Wearing an XS.
Price: $49.90, marked down from $75
Review: This is a close second for my favorite item! Softest sweater ever and I love the heather grey color and bell sleeves. I like it with my white jeans but will also love it with dark jeans or slacks. Wearing an XS in this.
Price: $39.90, marked down from $59
Review: This blouse is in Hush Pink and that describes the color very well. A very light pink and the fabric has a little sheen to it making it look a little dressier than your average blouse. Loving this with the dark wash jeans but this would look equally as well with white. Wearing a Small Petite.
Price: $58.90, marked down from $89
Review: The fabric is a soft sweatshirt material and I love the side sleeve details on this sweater. Burgundy has always been a great fall color so I love the color. I’m wearing an XS.
Price: $45.90, marked down from $69
Item: Lush Cold Shoulder Top
Review: I really like this cold shoulder blouse and the double layer that crosses at the hem. I think this style is flattering for women of all ages because it shows off your shoulders but covers up the back of your arms (not my favorite body part).
Price: $29.90, marked down from $45
Review: Great fitting tee, and it comes in SEVENTEEN different colors! Longer in length and not too thin. Wearing an XS.
Price: $19.90, marked down from $29
Review: Love everything about this one! The colors in this scarf can be worn with so many sweaters and coats. The material is soft and will be warm in the fall and winter.
Price: $24.90, marked down from $38
Review: Love this long cardigan and it has patch pockets!! (So cute) I have worn this with shorts already and know I will be wearing it all fall and winter too. This is oversized so I’m wearing an XXS.
Price: $31.90, marked down from $49
Review: These are the most comfortable booties I’ve ever owned. The open toe and perforations make them cool enough for summer and the padded foot bed make them so comfortable. It has a 3.5 inch block heel and side zip closure. I know I will be wearing these with so many different outfits now and well into the fall season. I sized down a half size to a size 6 in these.
Price: $129.90, marked down from $195
Review: These are the other pair of booties that I fell in love with. I choose the taupe color because it goes with just about everything. These are also suede with a 3.5 inch heel and a back zip closure. They fit true to my regular shoe size of 6.5.
Price: $99.90, marked down from $145.95
Review: These boots are tall, hitting me right below the knee. They are really comfortable, and I LOVE the color! They do run large, I sized down a half size.
Price: $149.90, marked down from $224.95
Review: This handbag looks like a designer one, but you can’t tell that it’s made of faux leather – it looks just like real, pebbled leather. I can see myself running errands with this handbag or getting lunch with my girlfriends.
Price: $52.90, marked down from $79.95
Quality: I love the neutral color of this Rebecca Minkoff handbag, and the fact that it’s a crossbody. Although there’s embroidery on the front, I was surprised to find that it looks good with every single outfit!
Price: $149.90, marked down from $225
Thanks for letting me show you my picks from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. It was fun to dress in some pretty fall and winter clothes even though its still the middle of July. The way time flies, it will be fall before we know it! And a special thanks to Winnie for being the cutest accessory ever. But seriously thank you to you readers for your support to Southern Curls and Pearls. Y’all are the best!!
xoxo,

I requested a "Caitlin mom post" a few months ago, so I was so happy to see this! Carla is beautiful and classy. Clearly, she passed on her excellent genes (and jeans, lol) to you. I would love to see more posts with outfits by Carla.
Go Mom!! Your mom is not only beautiful but she is having fun and rocking her look. Thank you for having her post her likes and what she will be wearing and how to mix match it up when transitioning seasons. I love this, I hope you and her will do this more often. I added to my wish list thanks to this post and can't wait until 3am to shop!
Like Mother like Daughter! Adorable looks!

It's delightful to see mom out from behind the lens, she's a very talented photographer. And all of these soft colors are really pretty on her. I also think it's really sweet that you two can share in doing the blog together.
