The Perfect Game Day Shoe

Happy Tuesday! Football season is right around the corner and its getting me so ready for fall candles, tailgating, and fall foliage. Today, I wanted to give you a little insight to my favorite game day shoe from OTBT Shoes. I am currently wearing the “Bushnell” in the color taupe. If you are in search of a comfortable shoe but want to be trendy & have a little height at the same time, this brand is a MUST for you. As soon as a tried out this wedge, I knew it was a product I could wear for game day weekends and not end up with blisters on the bottom on my feet from walking so much when tailgating or walking to the stadium. This shoe can be considered a splurge but it’s long lasting and can go with practically anything from jeans to dresses.

You can use my code “KENZIEWHEELER” on OTBT Shoes to get 10% off any purchase & it is valid for one year/one per customer.

NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE 2019

One of the most talked about sales is right around the corner & I am here to fill you in on all of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 101. This blog post & Instagram will be a great source for understanding exactly what the sale is and discovering my top picks from it. So follow along! Because the next few weeks will be filled with a lot of Nordstrom fashion & AMAZING deals that I am so excited to share with you guys.

What exactly is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?

Looking for those boots you never bought last year? Or that coat you obsessed about? If you’re a sucker for new arrivals for this upcoming Fall season, then this is definitely the sale for you. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a great way to shop fantastic brands at HUGE discounts ranging from 40-75% off for both women & men. So many departments are included in this sale like home decor, stuff for the kiddos, women’s fashion, men’s fashion, beauty, and a lot more. Honestly, this is one of the best times to stock up on all your Fall wear because guess what… EVERYTHING GOES BACK UP TO FULL PRICE AFTER THE SALE. So, don’t wait… SHOP THE SALE. You won’t regret it.

TIP: Look over items you would want beforehand because when they are gone, they are GONE and you don’t want to miss out on some of your favorites.

When does it start?

Icon Pre-Shop in Stores July 9.

July 9

Icon and Ambassador Pre-Shop in Stores July 10 through 11.

July 10–11

Early Access for Nordstrom Cardmembers July 12 through 18.

July 12–18

Anniversary Sale July 19 through August 4. Prices go up August 5.

July 19–August 4 (Prices go up August 5.)

Understanding the dates:

July 9-11 : The sale opens up to ambassadors/platinum/premium

July 12-18 : The sale opens up to Nordstrom cardholders. The items will be visible online to shop but unless you have a Nordstrom card during these dates you cannot purchase these AMAZING DEALS.

July 19th : The sale opens up to the public. This is when everyone can purchase items from the sale but most likely a lot of items will be sold out at this point, so early access by applying for a Nordstrom card is your best bet to get everything you want on SALE!

How can I make sure I get the best deals and items I want?

My advice would be to get early access by becoming a Nordstrom cardholder. If you have specific items you want and have a feeling they will sell out fast, then apply for a Nordstrom card. If you sign up now through July 10th you can get a $60 note as well as so many other perks. Luckily, if you get approved you can instantly use it without the official card in hand. You can apply here.

Will you keep us updated throughout the sale?

Of course! I want to be a great source for you guys throughout the sale. I will be traveling to ATL to create great content and preview the sale with my own eyes. Be sure to stay updated on blog posts & follow along on Instagram. I will be posting stories to help guide you in the best way possible and help with styling, sizing, etc. You can follow me HERE.

Again, using my links throughout the sale is something I would highly appreciate. Thank you guys so much for always supporting me and I truly am grateful to be a source for fashion, travel, & lifestyle!

Abercrombie 50% SALE

With Memorial Day and the weekend approaching, there are so many great sales! So today I wanted to share with you some of my top picks from Abercormbie’s 50% off sale. They have truly stepped up their game lately with all of their non-logo clothing items. I usually get all of my casual tees and jean shorts here because they are so comfortable! Here are a few of my top picks below:

Helloooo, It’s Me!

Beanie / Sweater / Scarf / Jeans / Boots

Good Afternoon friends!

It’s been a minute. First off, let’s just start off by saying WOOOOO WHOOOOOO! I just finished my first semester of senior year. One more to go! School has been super hard the last few months with constant studying, work, and trying to keep up with my blog.  A few weeks ago I decided to quit working so I could focus more on school and just take a breather. While school is my number one priority until I graduate, I also plan to put a lot of my time into @trendykenziee on Instagram and with regular blog posts during the week. When I started blogging, I would have never known how much you can get out of it and little did I know YOU CAN turn it into a job. I almost cried last night because I received my first payout on LikeToKnowIt (you have to hit a certain amount before they payout). For those of you who don’t know what that is , it’s the commission based system for bloggers. Everything I post I use a link. That link then generates to the website I purchased it from and if someone wants to purchase, I then make commission off of what they buy. That’s how we as bloggers make an income! Campaigns and ads are other ways etc. I was just super excited to hit that milestone of mine. Yes the $ is great and all but seeing how much progress you’ve made developing your own personal brand and the fact the others like it is the most rewarding part.

I’ve gained so many “blogging friends” over the last year, one being my blogger bestie Sidney Duke. We always text back and forth our pictures and support each other throughout the week. It’s SO MUCH fUN. I think some people have a misconception about blogging. It’s not just about blowing up someones feed of the next trend or girls just trying to sell you a product. It’s an everyday lifestyle, a new generation to interact with people online, basically to sum it up a support system.

Enough of that mushy gushy. I figured I would give you guys a little insight on what is going on within my life lol. Time for some cute outfit deets. Lately, I have been so obsessed with the EXPRESS holiday sweaters and accessories. I have been in this chenille sweater non stop & let’s not forget about my favorite fur boots.Like I have said in previous posts, chenille has been my favorite material this season & lucky for you this babe is under $30 (also comes in 4 other colors)!Linking my favorite fur boots here as well. Tis the holiday season with all of these cute pieces! ahh

XOXO,

Atlanta Travel Diary

Shoes / Jeans / Belt / Top / Earrings (similar)

Top / Jeans / Shoes 

Hey guys, I’m glad you’re here. So I wanted to give you all an insight on our Atlanta weekend vacay ( which was SO FUN ). Like I said in my previous post, if I had to live in the city again , this would be one of my top choices… besides the traffic lol. We stayed at the Hyatt Regency at Villa Christina and it was FANTASTIC AND SO NICE. The view on the third floor was unbelievable & as you can see that is where we got most of our pictures! I honestly had no clue where to book so I just booked closest to the shopping areas HAHA. But then I realized there were so many shopping opportunities around so it did not really matter.

Here are a few places we grabbed a bite to eat and LOVED:

Breakfast: The Flying Biscuit Cafe 

( We had an early dinner so we skipped lunch hehe )

Dinner : El Felix – Ya’ll by far the BEST Mexican food I have ever had and to top it off I had the most amazing jalapeño margarita. The atmosphere was great because it was right by the Atlanta Braves stadium so we were able to roam around for a bit. THANK YOU EMMA for recommending this.

I wish we would’ve had time to visit more fun places but two days just isn’t enough for all of the great things to do!

Places to shop:

Phipps plaza – high-end shopping mostly, that’s where I finally caved in and bought my Gucci belt I have been wanting FOREVER. They also had a huge Nordstrom and let me just say.. Nordstrom has some amazing iced coffee lol. We only have a Nordstrom Rack in Memphis so this was a huge treat for me 🙂

Atlanta Perimeter Mall-  just ya normal shopping stores like Abercrombie, Dillard’s, etc.

The Buckhead area has AMAZING shopping, basically any store you can think of.

While we were there we went to the Chris Stapleton concert and I had such a great time with my sweet guy! If you’re looking for a weekend getaway and want to do some shopping, Atlanta is your go-to.

XOXO,

Kenzie
