Thanksgiving is officially over and all the sales have started pouring in.. well before Thanksgiving!
I’m calling this a mini gift guide because I haven’t had time to make a full-on list of ALL the Black Friday sales in between finishing unpacking and organizing our new home in Montana. You’ll also notice it’s mostly all gifts for HER and not a lot for HIM. Next year, I won’t have so much on my plate, and I hope to have a full gift guide prepared next year.
Part of my gift guide includes a few small businesses, two of which are from my home state of Arizona!

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is something I look forward to EVERY year. It’s a time when you can find some of the best deals on a number of items from women and men’s clothing, accessories, home decor, and much, much, more. Mark your calendars! The sale opens to the public on August 19th!
I use this time to stock up on skincare products I know I like (if they’re part of the sale), and to try new products I couldn’t bring myself to splurge full price on.
Of course, if there aren’t a lot of items I’m super interested in, it’s okay! There’s no need to try and find something just for the sake of buying an item on sale. Plus, there’s always next year!
Since I have a Nordstrom credit card, I’m able to shop the sale before the public. In fact, you can even apply for a Nordstrom credit card anytime from now until ONE day before the sale. BUT — do not go into debt over this or any sale. Give yourself a budget to follow and stick to!
While I won’t have a video guide for the sale, I thought it’d be fun to still outline what I’m looking to get this year.
This year, I’m going for more of a relaxed vibe with clothing. Maybe a restock on a skincare item, a bra I know I like, maybe some jewelry, and a Barefoot Dreams blanket I’ve been putting off on getting. Again, this is just my wishlist – I won’t be getting everything.
This whole working from home thing has really got me excited for new loungewear, and with the COVID-19 pandemic looking like it’s not going away anytime soon (although, I would like it to!), I’ve decided I need more loungewear! Also, my feet always get cold.. so that’s why I added the Barefoot Dreams fuzzy socks to my wish list, haha.
As for the earrings, this looks like the same pair I got the first time I shopped the sale a few years ago. I somehow ended up losing one of them, and I’ve been bummed about it ever since! So, I thought the price for a new set wasn’t bad.
Yes, the Chanel lip balm isn’t part of the sale, but I figured I’d just add it to my wishlist anyway and order it all at once. I’ve heard great things about it too!
I’ve also been looking to get more workout tops and figured why not add at least one to this list. This Free People top has great reviews and I definitely wouldn’t be getting it if it wasn’t on sale.
You may have noticed pajama sets in my list — I think they’re cute and I really don’t have any pj sets in my wardrobe.
The black and white top from Threat & Supply looks so soft – I hope it fits good too! This is the most challenging part of online shopping – you just hope it all fits right!
I’m super picky about my jewelry, but I think the silver Cubic Zirconia Bangle from Nordstrom would look great with a gold or silver watch.
The Natori bra on my list is something I already have in a different color. I love how it fits and feels, and I thought this would be a great time to get a second one.
Jo Malone London fragrances are something I see on nearly everyone’s wishlist/guide for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. I’ve never smelled any of their perfumes or candles, but I’m considering trying out their Mini Discovery Set.
If you’ve ever seen any Nordstrom Anniversary Sale guide, then it should be no surprise to see the Barefoot Dreams blanket on my wish list. I have one of their cardigans from a previous sale – it’s huge on me. It basically looks like a robe, but I still wear it. So, I’ll be sure to try on other cardigans in store before I purchase another one. I’ve definitely been wanting one of their blankets, and now is the perfect time!
