The Francophile's Guide to the Anthropologie Sale

Bonne journee mon ami

I know - another sale but tis' the season! Anthropologie always has a sale section but I find this time of year- post tag sale is when they have the best selections at the best prices. Anthropologie is one of my favorite stores- mostly because I know I can always find the perfect item- unique in it's own way. 

After searching through the sale section, I glanced at my shopping cart which proceeded to hold 14 items. Having this much excitement for so many good pieces- I couldn't help but share what I found with you. I mapped everything out by category and even another- "Lilly's Picks" section. It's so fun to include her in these post and let her personality and opinions come to life- anything with a "cat" on it- will always be considered her "pick."

Just a side note: as of today... all sale items are an additional 40% off!

I found so many good finds in home and gifts- I've been dabbling with the idea of wallpaper in our home and anthropologie offers such a good selection- I've listed a few that were my favorites in the sale- yes there is a Paris themed wallpaper... I'm also a sucker for good coffee table books -these are typically pretty pricey so I thought these were definitely a good find! As far as kitchen items- you can never go wrong here. All of my current serving pieces are from Anthro. To better entertain your guest- I spotted these patio pieces- it says indoor/outdoor use but I loved the french flair of their style!

I love Anthropologies apparel and accessories section- you can find the BEST pieces that know how to make a statement. I've bought everything from Jewelry to shoes here- in fact these items are the ones that are in my cart and sizes are becoming limited so hurry up and shop while you can!

Last but not least- Lilly's ultimate picks from the sale: I think this is a great opportunity to shop for someone having a baby, back to school or even for the holidays.

The Francophile's Guide to the Nordstrom Sale

While Lilly and I do love Zara and Mango for shopping- we also buy most of our favorites from Nordstrom. I never typically go crazy with the Nordstrom sale but I did pick out a few must haves for every Mom, daughter duo.

Lilly is at the age where she's so much fun to dress. She has her own personality and she knows what she likes. She lives for dresses, sequins and kitty cats- she's also developed a shoe collection! I let her pick out a few favorite items- with a little help for curating them together. 

A few of these items I already own ( like the OTK boots- love them!)  and well, the others... are currently awaiting shipment. (oops) I tend to be a fairly savvy shopper- it has to be a "must have" item and must be at a great price point. I don't believe anything on my list is over 100.00 AND- it's all transitional into fall/winter.

I probably buy more beauty products from Nordstrom than anything else- I love Sephora but Nordstrom carries some of my favorite brands like Charlotte Tilburry, Trish Mcevoy and supergoop. The lipstick and lip liner I currently wear are by Charlotte Tilburry - and are listed in a package together for the sale. I swear by the Trish Mcevoy concealer- I received this as a sample and WOW! 

For the home I love the scents of the diptique candles- every Francophiles must haves and worth every penny! The Savon Marseilles soap is one of my favorites- these two scents are my absolute favorites to have in my home. I've been wanting to try an air diffuser for some time now and I finally found this cute diffuser for such a good price- but is aesthetically pleasing.

Please feel free to tag or share all of your Nordstrom sale favorites with me!
