Nordstrom Anniversary SALE (Best Shoes)

 Happy Sunday! The Nordstrom sale has officially opened to all cardholders. Every year, I stocked up on my favorite fall shoes. If you are not familiar with the Nordstrom Sale, please read this post here. Basically it's Christmas and July and fall pieces are marked down and go back up after the sale is over. I love to stock up on shoes because it's such a huge saving. Let's get started on my top 5 best sellers this season.

1. Swift Run X Sneaker-This sneaker comes in leopard print and black, These shoes are so comfy. They do run big. I sized down a whole size. I've been eyeing leopard print tennis shoes for years and every year they sell out. I'm lucky I got my hands on these. I love that the leopard print is super subtle. I totally recommend them because they are super versatile to wear with leggings, jeans, dresses, and very comfortable. 

Original Price: $85

Sale Price: $56.90

 2. Steve Madden Finn Chain Mules -These mules are so comfy. They feel like slippers on and super trendy for fall. I love the colors and it's super easy to dress up any look. I sized down half size since they run big. The chain details is such a chic look and will be trending everywhere this fall. They come in 6 color and I seriously want them all. 

Original Price: $89.95

Sale Price: $59.90

3. Cedar Chain Booties-These booties were love at first sight. As soon as I put them on, they fit like a glove. I sized down half a size. The chain detail is so chic. It brings such an edgy look. I can't wait to wear them now and all year long.

4. Afelia Knee High Boot Vince Camuto -These boots are definitely trending this season. The square toe and western style is going to be everywhere this fall. Unfortunately, I didn't end up buying them because the calf area is too big. If you have a bigger calf, I totally recommend these. I've been wanting a pair of western boots and these definitely fit the bill. They also come in several colors. They run small, I sized up a half of size.

5. Vince Camuto  Ankle Boots -These boots are the perfect neutral and will be versatile all season long. They are very similar to the pair last year, but I actually love this pair even more because the cut/slit on the side is higher which creates a sleeker look. It does run small, I recommend sizing up half a size. 

Original Price: $150

Sale Price: $99.90

I will be sharing more of my finds on my Instagram and blog so make sure to check back! Have a great night!  

Summer at San Diego Mission Bay Resort

Pool side at the San Diego Mission Bay Resort 

Happy July! I can't believe it's already halfway through the year! This year has definitely flown by. I wanted to share an amazing resort that we stayed at during our summer vacation in San Diego. It's the perfect getaway from Arizona and feels like paradise away from home. It totally gives me Hawaii vibes. With an abundance of on-site activities, San Diego Mission Bay Resort is the definitely the ultimate vacation destination. I'm sharing my top three favorite reasons why I love this resort. 

Love that you can walk to the bay from our room. 

 Location-San Diego Mission Bay Resort is the perfect place to stay because of it's location. It is on the bay and has gorgeous views and right next to Fiesta Island. (Fun Fact: I grew up in San Diego and learned how to drive with my dad at Fiesta island when I turned 16. This place definitely has a sentimental value to me.) It is also five minutes from Sea World and Belmont Park which are wonderful attractions to check out if you are in San Diego. There are so many activities on the resort, we didn't even have time to go to those attractions at this visit. 

Pool/Kid Friendly-Speaking of on-site activities, the pool was AMAZING! I love that the pool has something for everyone. They also have a wading pool for younger kids. We spent most of our vacation time at the pool. I was memorized by the view of the bay and the fish tacos are DELICIOUS! I definitely recommend them and the guacamole. The kids also loved playing with the life-sized chess and checkers. It's also the perfect place for s'mores and bonfire! 

The daybeds are the perfect way to relax by the pool especially with kids. 

The boys spent all the day at the pool. 

This picture says it all. 

Upgraded Rooms/Gorgeous Views-One of my favorite things about the resort are the upgraded rooms. I love the modern feel and wood floors which made it feel more cozy than a hotel feel.  We stayed in a studio guest suite with the bay view and I totally recommend this room. I loved that our room had the additional seating area and microwave. Not only was it a spacious room, but my absolute favorite was the balcony and gorgeous bay view. It was so relaxing to wake up to every morning. We also saw the fireworks from Sea World from our room. 

Love the wood floors and modern touches. 

This gorgeous view is our balcony. 

The queen size beds were super comfy and chic.

The boys had a blast playing with the life size chess game. It was the located right outside our room. 

Overall, I definitely recommend staying at the San Diego Mission Bay Resort. Click here to book your next stay at the resort and learn more about the amenities they have to offer. We can't wait to come back!

Have a great day and hope you guys have the best 4th of July weekend! This is the perfect place to stay for the 4th of July! 

Thank you San Diego Mission Bay for hosting my family and I. All opinions are my own.
