Friday Favorites: #NSale Edition!

Happy Friday, y’all!  Yesterday was a really busy day for Dustin and I, so I got up bright and early (I’m talking 4:30AM) to shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.  Priorities, right?!

If you remember from my Beginner’s Guide post on Wednesday, this is the first year for me to be a cardholder.  Once I got on the site and started scrolling through, I added items I loved to my shopping bag.  After only making it halfway through the pages in an hour, I had 19 items and definitely had to start nixing some of those items.  It was REALLY HARD to narrow down to a reasonable amount of money, and so today I want to share what I bought with y’all since they are all FAVORITES!!

I’m sure some of it won’t fit or work so I know I can return and then buy more 😜

ALSO: Be sure to check my IG (@saraheshaneyfelt) for a chance to win a $300 Nordstrom gift card to use during the sale!!!  The contest ends tomorrow night.

 I’m so excited about this scarf!  I’ve been wanting a leopard scarf forever and this one is CHEAP!



 I’m anxious to get this shirt in the mail.  I love the bell sleeve trend because it’s something I feel could be timeless, but the fabric was described as a fleece so I’m hoping this is dressier and not like a sweatshirt.



 This is the basic tee I wanted!  Another blogger said it wasn’t see-through even though it looks like it.  This is so cheap right now, too!!



 Who doesn’t love scallops?  I loved this dress in a light blue that it also comes in, but I feel like the dark green can transition easily to fall.



 So excited about this sweater!!!



 I’ve been wanting some midi length leggings for a while now, so I was able to snag these in black.  Black is now sold out, but I do love the red!



 I’m obsessed with jeans and finding the perfect pair, so I’m trying a new-to-me brand.  It’s high waisted which is new to me, so I’ll let y’all know how it works for me!  This brand is a tried and true favorite for me, too.



 This will transition easily into fall with a cute sweater or jacket!



I’m not sure how much I really need this tank so we’ll see how it goes.  If it’s not a must, I’ll return it and get something in it’s place!  I do love the scallop hemline too!

Friday Favorites!

Happy Friday, y’all!  I feel like this has been the longest week ever, and it probably didn’t help that the beginning of the week was out of whack with the holiday.  Now I’m ready for the weekend!

Today I’m sharing a few of my favorite things for the week!

These are a few of the items in my shopping cart right now and I’m waiting to see if they go on sale next week!

 Last night I watched an episode of a new show on TLC called Hair Goddess, and it’s a new favorite!  The accents take a little to get used to, but I love the main character, Christina.  Apparently she began her hair extension business in her parents’ garage when she was 18. She opened her first salon in Staten Island and the show follows her as she works to build clientele in her newest salon in NYC.  This show makes me want hair extensions!



 Baking is a huge stress reliever for me and I needed something yesterday so I baked a cake!  I have a Southern Living desserts cookbook, so I found a recipe for a semi-homemade strawberry cake and made it along with a strawberry buttercream!  Dustin and I each had a piece last night and it was so good!  Now I’ll be giving it all away today haha!



It looks like all I’ve eaten this week are sweets based on this picture and the one above–and it feels like it!  At least I’ve had some really good workouts and I’ll be back in the gym early this morning, too.  I haven’t had a milkshake in 7 years (which is when I first started losing weight).  I had a card for a free small milkshake, so I decided to actually use it and get one.  It was so good, but thank goodness milkshakes aren’t something I crave because it wouldn’t bother me if I didn’t have another one for 7 more years.  Now chocolate chip cookies…I could never live without!


Dinner suggestions!
What are your favorite high protein dinners?  Tonight I’m going to bake chicken and probably either saute veggies or roast them, but that’s my go-to.  Also–it needs to be simple!  Thanks!

Friday Favorites

Happy Friday, y’all!  You know, these Friday Favorites posts aren’t near as fun to write during summer break because that means I’m one more week closer to the beginning of school!  Slow down summer!


 I can’t believe I’ve forgotten to mention this on a favorites post but I LOVE watching the Duggars….especially now that it’s Counting On.  Joy’s wedding was recently featured on the premiere episode and I loved it!!  Austin is the cutest and seems so genuinely sweet.  

If I had to rank the Duggar daughters based on their wedding dresses, mine favorites would be Jessa, Jinger, Joy, and then Jill.



 I’ve recently started watching Mallory Ervin Youtube videos, and one I watched recently was on her weight loss.  She talked about her new exercise routine for burning calories fast and I’ve started doing it!  You walk at a really steep incline (without holding onto the treadmill) for at least 30 minutes.  I’ve done this about 4-5 times so far and the spike in calories burned (based on my Apple watch) is insane!  Since I’m still a beginner, I’ve been walking at a 13 incline at 3.1mph for 30 minutes.  I do increase my speed the last 5 minutes to make it a little harder.  Y’all….it’s tough!  When Mallory talked about it, I thought it wouldn’t be that hard but it is.  I also use that time to listen to podcasts!



 This workout tank is a new favorite!!  Guess where it’s from??
WALMART!
My partner teacher had the cutest tank on one day at the gym and she said it was from Walmart, so I left the gym and headed straight to Walmart to buy 2 of them!  They were under $6 each!!  I sized up to get it loose and baggy since I don’t like tight workout tanks.  The thin material makes it even better.  Run to your nearest Walmart to get this Danskin tank!  I told my best friend about it on the phone and she went and bought one and loves it too!



Tropical storm Cindy has hit Alabama and made her way up the state.  We had to get out of the house so we made a special trip to the book store to read magazines.  I could sit for hours and read magazines!



I know this is the weirdest thing ever to say but knowing that the Nordstrom sale is coming up has me dreaming about fall clothes!  I am loving the summer weather and summer break, but now I’m looking forward to wearing fall layers 😜


I posted Wednesday about my current wish list that I created for Dustin so he could know what to buy me whenever he wanted to buy me a gift!  I got a lot of feedback about the White peplum so let’s hope it looks good on my body type!

UPDATE: My sweet friend Victoria texted me to let me know this top runs small and feels cheaply made.  I will be taking this off my list, and I wanted y’all to know in case you were thinking about purchasing!
