Weekly Nordstrom Rack Visit

Hi friends. Here's what I scoped out last week at Nordstrom Rack.

This Marc Jacobs Classic Huge Hillier Leather Hobo is gorgeous in this purple shade!


This bag is so, so pretty! The purple is a violet-meets-magenta shade that I love for spring (let's be honest, it's pretty great for any time). I really enjoy the slouchy leather look, and the soft feel. It looks a little bit large on me, but I think it’s a pretty good size for most people, and very roomy. It's priced at $234, a great value considering I saw several smaller Marc Jacobs bags ticketed at the same price. If you’re in the market for a bag this hue, I’d definitely check it out (they also had a nice cognac brown color). Here it is on sale in red for $339.

Weekly Nordstrom Rack Visit

Last week I paid my weekly visit to Nordstrom Rack. I've heard rumors that they often receive shipments on a daily basis, and I know that at the very least they get new merchandise in weekly, so I like to swing by every week. If I don't, I feel like I might be missing out.




The Kimono trend is really big right now. I've never heard of the West Koi brand before, but it was an interesting item. I personally love the style, and loved the particular print and fringe detail of this kimono, but it was one size fits all. The fringe ended well below the knee. While I know it's intended to be drape-y, I felt that this one was a bit overwhelming. Also, the chiffon-type fabric is pretty, but doesn't add warmth, and I'm always very hesitant to buy pieces that don't have much function. However, I do think that on the right person, with a nice neutral palette, this would be a really lovely piece. Check out these similar kimonos- splurge here and an affordable version here.
