Fireplace Makeover Part 2! Comment FIREPLACE for t Fireplace Makeover Part 2! Comment FIREPLACE for the supplies we used!🔥

When I say this design came to me in a dream I quite literally mean it haha it really came to me in my sleep. I had been thinking about how to make the overmantel work since the stone structure placement kind of made it more difficult.

Putting 2x4s up the wall allowed us to place the shiplap over the top part of the stone and took it out from the wall a little bit. Then Craig built the mantel over the existing stone one - which by the way was the worst mantel that ever existed. It was only about 3 inches deep, it was completely uneven, and it was tilted forward. So basically it was impossible to get anything to really stay on the mantel. Useless lol. Now I have a nice big mantel I can style and put up Christmas decorations and it just looks amazing.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: Favorites Under $50

Hey loves! Today I wanted to share some of my Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Favorites under $50 with you! All of these are pieces that I got myself and really love.  I try to get staples that I can wear over and over that are versatile, that way you get even more value out of them.  It’s an added bonus they’re on a big sale!  FYI, the sale opens to everyone on the 20th so even if you aren’t a cardholder and can’t shop yet, you can still get a sneak peek on the items and plan out what you’d like so you’re ready! Things will sell out super fast once it’s open to the public…so you’ve gotta have a good plan in place of what you want so you can check out 😉 Just a pro tip!!  Click here to get an early access sneak peek.

Free People January Tee (Sale Price: $31.90, after sale $48.00)

I got this top in white, gray, and black because it is the perfect tunic! The fabric is super soft and stretchy, and you’ll find me pairing this with skinny jeans and leggings all fall & winter long. It’s also a great layering piece.  Super versatile!  Definitely a closet staple and at that price, stock up like I did!  I’m wearing a size small.

(Black skinny jeans, blue skinny jeans, tan bag, black bag, grey booties, & black booties all included in the sale under $100)

Leith Sleek Knit Midi Dress (Sale Price: $42.90, after sale: $65.00)

This dress is seriously so perfect.  It’s got a very stretchy material which is always great, and definitely hugs in the right places. The racerback gives it a slightly more casual feel if you’d like to dress it down with sneakers & a jean jacket, but it’s definitely nice enough where you can dress it up for a nicer event!  I think I may wear this to a rehearsal dinner next month.  I’m wearing a size medium.

(Bag & Shoes also included in sale, both under $100)

Leith Ribbed Shawl Cocoon Sweater (Sale Price: $45.90, after sale: $69.00)

I got this super cozy sweater in two colors, the pink adobe and tan etherea heather.  I picked up the charcoal one in last year’s sale, so I knew I would love this one. It’s essentially exactly the same as last year’s version except this year it has the cozy ribbed detail, again making it soft & stretchy.  Are you sensing a pattern with the characteristics of the clothes I like? Ha. Must be comfy, soft, & stretchy. I’m wearing the medium.  I think I could have gotten a small, but I like to have the option to layer things underneath so this gave it a little more room for that.  I also love a more slouchy look anyways!

BP Raw Edge V-Neck Tee (Sale Price: $11.90, after sale: $17.00)

I scooped this tee in the white and the black/white stripe because it is a closet staple if there ever was one! I mean it goes without saying…t-shirts are the foundation of my wardrobe so when they’re only $11 it’s a no-brainer.  They also come in really cute solid colors like pink cedar stripe and green botanical. I’m wearing a size small.

BP Textured Stitch Pullover (Sale Price $25.90, after sale $39.00)

I got this sweater because I just love the cut of it and the waffle-like material.  It comes in a bunch of colors and it’s definitely a must for your fall closet!! It’s pretty lightweight so it’s a great transitional piece too to pair with shorts & booties like I did here. I’m wearing a size small but you could definitely size up if you wanted it a bit oversized and slouchy.

Free People Found my Friend Sweater (Sale Price: $51.90, after sale $78.00)

Okay so I know this isn’t technically under $50, but hey it’s really close! I love all things Free People and this is no exception. So soft and kinda like a sweatshirt, but a really nice fuzzy sweatshirt that you could totally just sleep in and then wake up and put pants on to be dressed for the day.  The best kind of clothes are the kinds that can double as PJs, am I right?!

(My jeans and cognac booties are also included in the sale, jeans are $72 off and boots are under $80.  You can find a similar pair of jeans only $42 here)

Have a great day!!

xo,

Bess
