First of all, I’m SO grateful for you all. I have cried numerous times just reading your reposts tagging IG and my account. You are amazing!! And you make me so grateful!!! I am thankful you are here and that we have a newsletter community. 

What happened?

My main instagram page @shalicenoel got suspended!! This is one of my top nightmares. Two days ago, I posted a follower’s review of some sandals that “looked like designer” and Instagram told me that my story violated community guidelines and took my whole account down.

At first I was confused, then tried again, then later freaked out. I appealed and went as far as I could until I knew I had to find a contact at Meta to ever recover my account. There are so many bots when trying to get a hold of someone to help, that it was clear that I needed a connection with an employee at meta.

Thankfully, I’m working with a couple key people to get it back up and running. It is nothing short of heartbreaking as I it took me 10 years to build my account following of 186,000. I miss the community I created in my DM’s. I miss our chats!

Meanwhile, if you have a contact at meta, email: mgmt@shalicenoel.com. I’m thankful to have my @shopshalicenoel account where I can stay up to date. Follow me on @shopshalicenoel for updates and stories. I appreciate your support! Guess what? We have a HUGE sale and a HUGE announcement coming up.  No, I’m not pregnant. Can you guess what it is?

How to stay connected?

  1. Follow me on @shopshalicenoel for updated and a huge announcement
  2. Make sure you are subscribed !! You’ll get my newsletter every Friday. Subscribe with your email here. Don’t worry, we hate spam as much as you do and you’ll only receive our once a week newsletter.
  3. THANK YOU for being here. Means more than you know!
  4. PRAY I can recover my main account shortly!!

Reid usually can’t accompany me to the Nordstrom Anniversary sale, so he usually goes on line and finds a bunch of things that he likes. Let me interject, that he is SO good at picking out the edgy chic men’s selection. I love this jacket that he chose and AG pants, which are uber flattering.

Which are your favorite?

I had a blast shopping the NSALE this week. Lots of good deals and great find. I’m lazy when it comes to getting into the gym, so any motivation to workout, I’ll take it. I found some cute bike shorts, tank and cardigan to hit the gym in style.Just the motivation I needed!

I found Reid some things too, stay tuned for the men’s edit blog post.

How cute is this Zella jacket?

Which is your favorite look?

All cardholders can shop today! Hurry, sell out risk is high. I put my order through today and already saw some items I wanted sold out.

Love these high waist flares!

MIA wide leg jeans // Buckle sandals // Straight leg jeans // Sunglasses // Belt // Modal Tee // Toiletry Bag // Zella Jacket // Levi Nike Shoes // Vest // Reiss camel coat // Open Edit Blazer // Blazer dress in small (LOVE THIS)

Are you shopping the NSALE? I pick up my items tomorrow from the sale. I can’t wait to shop alone, ha! I have more dressing room selfies coming at ya!

Tip: skip the tees and tanks and go for the items you won’t regret this fall, like boots, jackets and investment buys.

The wonderful sale is finally upon us! Click on the images to shop and let me know in the comments if you have any questions. Scroll down for what I don’t think is worth it on the sale. Read on and let me know what you think in the comments.

Denim

Straight leg Jeans

Wide leg Jeans

Flare jeans

Coats and Jackets

Skincare and Makeup

Have you tried Gucci Westman’s line? I would definitely jump on the “highlight stick duo,” was $50 now $40.

Bags

I didn’t find a ton of bags or accessories. I am mainly obsessed with the Kurt Geiger belt bag!

Home and Luggage

Note: Beis has 360 turning wheels! I love a good wooden cutting board (no pfas from the plastic ones)

Mens

Loving the crewneck tees, Faherty hoodie and AG jeans that fit like a glove.

Boys

Levi wants Jordan’s for his birthday, so I’m hoping he will like these Nike Court?

Socks

I really want these Barefoot Dreams socks now!

Sneakers

So many fun sneakers on the NSALE, get extra pairs as Christmas presents!

If you buy one pair of heels . . . THIS PAIR

Boots

Workwear

What I don’t think is worth it in the NSALE

Every year when I shop the NSALE, I tell people that there is a strategy to the sale. Don’t just buy something because it is on sale. Think investment buys and wardrobe builders. The below however, didn’t seem worth it. Do you agree?

Barefoot dreams cardigan

It’s there every year in the same driftwood color, I’m over it. And at this point, you should already have one.

The Versace watch is over the top, and not a classic choice IMO.

the Levi’s denim jacket. It’s the same price as in store, so if you need one, get it but don’t stress because it’s not much of a discount.

MOLLY walnut trouser jeans

HOLLY high waist flares

ROSIE coated denim fits tts.

The MIA shown above. fit tts.

The Nordstrom sale is a great time to invest in fall pieces at discount. This year, I’m consentrating on investment buys. No tees or tanks, but mainly items like elevated boots and denim at discount. I hope to be YOUR guide for the Nordstrom sale. Lmk what you’re looking for! Or you can email, mgmt@shalicenoel.com.

It is no secret that I am sucker for good denim and get butterflies in my stomach when I arrive at the Nordstrom sale and get to comb through all the denim selection. This year supply is no exception. So many great brands and fits to choose from. Here are some of my highlights from the sale. Don’t forget to add these to your wishlist! These will sell out quickly!

If you’re looking for a wide leg jeans.. I’d suggest THIS ONE

If you’re looking for a light wash wide leg jeans.. I’d suggest THIS ONE

If you’re looking for a black denim, wide leg and cropped (under $60!) . . . I’d suggest THIS ONE

If you’re looking for a high waisted flare. . . .I’d suggest THIS ONE

If you’re looking for a vintage crop, no rips . . . I’d suggest THIS ONE

If you’re looking for a walnut high waisted flare trouser jeans (size up!) . . . I’d suggest THIS ONE

If you’re looking for a classic flare jean (size up!) . . . I’d suggest THIS ONE

Which is your favorite? Happy Shopping!
