Little Lace Blouse + 18 Summer Tops on Sale

Outfit Details:

Dusty Rose Lace Top  (wearing an XS, similar here and here), Similar Leather Jacket or this one is similar and under $70!, High Waisted Skinny Jeans (these are TTS, I’m in a 26, similar here), Studded Bow Flats  (run slightly small, size up a half size, similar pair here), Silver Frame Sunglasses (similar here)

Last weekend I shared a post about building a functional wardrobe (the post is here if you missed it!), and one of the essentials I shared was blouses. I’m all about t-shirts, but nice blouses that can be worn for slightly dressier occasions are an absolute must.

I found this one on sale last week and the gorgeous dusty pink lace instantly pulled me in. The details of the ladder trim at the neckline, and the mock neck make it feel really special. It runs a tiny bit big — I’m in an XS!

How to wear it.

I tucked it into a pair of high waisted jeans (I’m wearing these ones, but these ones are similar), but it would look amazing tucked into an a-line skirt with heels, or half tucked into boyfriend jeans with flat sandals, or with white skinny jeans and wedges. Lots of possibilities!

I also just got these little studded bow flats, and although they come in a bunch of other colors, I love a good neutral flat I can wear with everything. These run slightly small, so size up a half size! Here is another similar option that is in stock!

18 Summer Tops Under $50!

The Nordstrom Anniversary sale is filled with tons of good Fall basics, but sometimes it can be hard to shop for cold weather items when it’s so hot outside! So I rounded up 18 of the best tops under $50, all perfect for summer — check them out below!

[note:] The sale is still in early access, and only open to Nordstrom card holders, but it opens to the public this Friday! 

I also rounded up a bunch of favorites here, and tried on some favorites in the dressing room with fit and sizing details right here!
