Thank you all so much for allowing us to take a much needed break last week. This summer has been pretty brutal with kids, travel and trying to get it all done. So we are so grateful that you all are willing to stick with us and let us have a breather. Although I am not quite sure how much breathing we did. It’s been a pretty big week here. We rang in the 4th of July, which means that we have less than 3 weeks until the kids go back to school. (Yes, they go back the last day of July, insane!) So we are trying to pack in as many of our summer must dos as possible.

Blaire has been traveling and I have been trying to keep two kids a live. Which became increasingly harder last week since my oldest started swimming without his floaty (super proud, but mostly terrified.) So we have been spending a lot of time at the pool. When it’s not raining, which is pretty much everyday. I’m so over it!

Now onto today’s outfit. I have had this coral sweater for a while now. It’s been a great closet staple and the perfect piece to add a great pop of color to an outfit. It’s super lightweight, so it’s ideal for those cooler summer nights. I found a few super similar options that I have linked up below.

As most of you know, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale starts this Thursday for cardholders. We are super excited to see all the great fall pieces and to snap them up at sale prices. We will be doing a full post of all things that we love from the sale on Thursday, so make sure to come back! I already have my eye on some adorable booties and a new military jacket!

If you don’t already have a Nordstrom card, it’s not too late to apply. I got mine the first day of the sale last year and was able to shop without a problem that day. Even if you only use it for the sale and shelve it throughout the year (like I do), it’s totally worth it. And if you apply now you get a free $20 note to shop the sale! Go here to apply!

Now…it’s time for a fabulous giveaway! I’ve teamed up with an amazing group of bloggers to give YOU a chance to win a $1,000 Nordstrom Gift Card, just in time for the Anniversary Sale!
