Wow you guys!
The response to this contest was a little overwhelming!
Scratch that.
It was a lot overwhelming (especially in the last 24 hours)!
But overwhelming in the best way possible of course. :)
I might have bitten totally did bite off more than I could chew,
but I am so happy that all of you participated!
I will FOR SURE do this again,
I will just make the deadline earlier so I can hopefully spare myself an anxiety attack.
Oh, I kid.
;)
And you know what I loved just as much as seeing your pictures? Reading your e-mails!
Some of you are just about as passionate about your items as I am about my items....
and that's sayin' somethin'.
Ladies.
I think that we took down Nordstrom.
Go. Us.
Don't believe me?
Well.
CHECK IT OUT.
*I feel like I need to put a quick disclaimer here.
I want you all to know that I tried my very best to include every single picture that was sent to me. However, I am only human, and I'm quite sure (even though I tried soooooooo hard not to) that I've made mistakes. If your picture didn't make it to a collage, I am genuinely sorry.
I am going to start out by highlighting some pictures that I feel either showcase items that we've already talked about or show items that I didn't pay that much attention to online, but that seem to be awesome!
Let's get started!
I thought these ladies all looked great in their Pleione shirts!
Click HERE for the purple shirt on the left (with the collar).
It is normally $58, but you can get 2 for $79 right now! What a deal!
It's not the must have shirt, but it's the same maker, and it has the exact same fit, the only thing different really is the collar and the band down the middle.
It's a GREAT shirt and I love it too! Doesn't it look awesome with leggings?!?
Since the MUST HAVE shirt is pretty much sold out at this point, THIS shirt is a great alternative.
It's available in several colors and a couple of patterns as well!
Click HERE for the MUST HAVE Shirt (pictured on the 3 other gorgeous ladies)!
Can't find the leggings link (so sorry!).
Click HERE for the quilted leather jacket that is gorgeous!
Click HERE for the booties.
I have officially become obsessed with these, and I think would be GREAT with my Vigoss jeans!
They would also look great with skirts as well as boot cut or trouser jeans, and they are at a phenomenal price right now!
I thought I was done with the sale, but these might do me in!
Click HERE for the BCBGENERATION tweed and faux leather jacket.
This jacket fits soooo cute and looks great! How do I not notice it earlier?
I love the details and how it flares out a bit.
Click HERE for the heels (they are FIERCE!).
If I had any place to wear a sexy pair of heels, I would definitely buy these.
Click HERE for the Seven boot cut jeans.
Click HERE for the white faced MK watch with bling and click HERE for the super sparkly bracelet (I love mine!).
Click HERE for the Michael Kors bag with gold accents.
I want this bag!!!!
I think it is the PERFECT fall bag.
The gold accents are so pretty, and I love the cross body option.
You can also click HERE for the larger version.
Click HERE for the gold MK watch with bling! STUNNING!
Click HERE for the studded leopard UGG flat.
SO FUN and HIP....and my friend says they feel like a house shoe!
Okay.
It's nearing midnight and I don't have it in me to search all of the boots below.

If you can't find the ones you are looking for, leave a question in the comments and hopefully the person wearing the boots will answer!

MY GOODNESS I love these shoes! So SO cute!
Maybe I will have another baby (and hope it's a girl) so she can wear these shoes! Ha!
Click HERE for the Nike free tennis shoes.
These shoes are CRAZY popular and have amazing reviews.

So cute and so warm!
You guys are LOVING your Zella items.
I mean seriously, you guys go on and on and on about Zella!
(Other Zella items are sprinkled throughout the collages below.)
You sing the praises of the Booty Pants
Sooo many of you talk about running errands in them and never even stepping in the
gym with them on!
The Live In Capris (HERE) and the Live In Leggings (HERE) are also favorites.
Click HERE for all things Zella including the super cute ruched jacket below!
Click HERE for my Miz Mooz boots that so many of you are totally loving.
Seriously.
Love.
I love them.
The next 2 collages (and 24 pictures) are of the Vigoss distressed jeans.
If you don't already have them, I am soooooooooooo sad for you.
These jeans are FABULOUS, and everybody that got them LOVES them.
Doesn't everybody look soooooo cute in their jeans?
If they still have your size, get them.
Get them now.
THEY ARE ONLY $38 people, and I would pay 4x as much for these amazing jeans!
Click HERE for the jeans.
The next 2 collages (and 26 pictures) are all of the MUST HAVE shirt!
If you have this shirt, chances are you love this shirt.
It's great with skinny jeans as well as leggings, and is definitely a wardrobe staple.
I seriously cannot tell you how many of you have e-mailed me saying you received your shirt, were surprised at how much you loved it, and then ordered a 2nd
(and sometimes a 3rd) in a different color.
I get it.
I have 2, and I want 3.
Click HERE for the MUST HAVE shirt.
And if you might can fit into petites, they are now available in petites as well!
The next collage are items you scored for your kids and your husbands!
Click HERE for kid's items (and then use the "narrow by" search as needed).
Click HERE for men's anniversary sale items (and then use the "narrow by" search as needed).
Okay ladies.
The next 9 collages aren't organized in any way.
Just lots of pictures of lots of fabulous items!
Before I knew how many entries
there were going to be, I had every intention of putting item #s next to
each item. Well, that didn't happen.
If
you see something that you like in a collage and can't find it on Nordstrom's site, please
leave a blog comment! Somebody will know what it is and can respond! Take the time to check all the things, and all the people out!
(I apologize that some of the pictures are turned the wrong way. They wouldn't correct for me.)
YOU GUYS!
FIRST OF ALL...YOU ARE ALL SO CUTE!
And you ladies really know how to style yourselves! I was very impressed!
I cannot thank you enough for entering the contest and making this idea of mine a success!
So, I wish I could give all of you a prize, but sadly just one will win.
Okay.....
So there were 217 total entries for the contest. WOW!
I put the number of entries into the Random Number Generator,
and this is the number that popped out.
And the name attached to #49 is Awndrea!
Congratulations Awndrea!!!!!
E-mail me at pinteresttoldmeto@yahoo.com, and I will get your $100 Nordstrom gift card
to you immediately!
And one last time....I really can't think the rest of you enough for taking the time to participate.
I know taking pictures and sending them in takes a lot of time, and I so appreciate the effort.
You ladies are awesome!
Now.
Before you go.
I feel it is my civic responsibility to alert you that the sale ends Sunday night.
(I think the fact the website says the sale ends August 5th is misleading. It actually ends August 4th at midnight pacific time, so there will be no shopping the sale on Monday).
So.....in interest of leaving no sale item unturned....I did one more sweep of the website and came up with some items that are fabulous, but that I hadn't highlighted yet.
And I would like to tell you to not panic,
BUT YOU SHOULD PROBABLY START TO PANIC.
There's not much time left! :)
Come Monday morning you don't want to be filled with regret that the boots you loved and ALMOST got on Sunday afternoon are now $80 more expensive on Monday (and for the rest of the season).
That would suck.
Pardon my language.
But it would totally suck.
So....let's look at some new items that I haven't talked about yet.
I realized that I hadn't highlighted any short boots!
Shame on me!
I wasn't looking for any this year, but it didn't mean you guys weren't. As evidenced in the above collages, some of you were on the look-out for some great boots!
Here is a reader (Hi Jennifer!) that styled 2 different pairs perfectly!
Click HERE for boots on left (#1 on the collage below).
Click HERE for boots on right (#5 on the collage below, love the cognac color!)
These 2 pictures make me want a pair of short boots like this!
Here are some of my favorite short boots right now.
Click on the number (above the collage) that you are interested in!
They all have great reviews and their prices are deeply reduced until Sunday!
1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5
Again, click on the number you are interested in.
Besides the real leather jacket, all of the things in the below collage are SUPER affordable.
1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6
So People.
What are you still doing here?
DON'T MISS THESE DEALS!!!!
Come Monday morning, these AMAZING prices are going to be gone!
just breathe.
and shop.
and have a wonderful weekend!!!!!!!!
