Happy Wednesday ya’ll! I hope you are all having a fantastic week back from the July 4th holiday! My husband and I are taking an 8 year anniversary to the coast of California and spending a week traveling from Newport Beach to San Francisco starting today! This trip is different than most because we purchased a one-way ticket and only have 2 hotels booked as of yet since we want to explore! I have to say, the planner in me is a little nervous at just ‘flying by the seat of my pants,’ but there is also something so exhilarating about being able to just pick up and go wherever you want! Our plan is roughly to begin our trip in Newport Beach for the night and morning, head to Los Angeles tomorrow to check out Warner Brothers Studios (where one of my favorite TV shows, Pretty Little Liars was filmed), stay at The Beverly Hills hotel tomorrow night (of which has been on my list for years and after our stay at The Beverly Hills Hotel we do not have a plan on where to head next! We are hoping to hit Napa, Monterey, possibly Yosemite if we are up for the drive and then end in San Francisco with HOPEFULLY a trip to check out Alcatraz! I am so excited to share with you all our trip through social media! I will try to blog as often as possible, but I will Instagram along the way each day, so make sure to head to @maketodayahollyday to follow along! I wanted to quickly share what I have brought along on my trip! I have two suitcases and they are full of fun summer pieces I can’t wait to share! I hope you all have a fantastic day and will enjoy these looks as much as I do!
Also, stay tuned next week as I will get some posts up for the MOST IMPORTANT SALE of the YEAR the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! I will be giving away a gift card for one of YOU so keep your eyes out! Also, if you have never heard of the sale begins next Thursday July 13th for Nordstrom Car Holders; the Sale opens to everyone on July 21-August 6. If you do not have a Nordstrom card you should totally apply for one and when you do you will received a $20 Nordstrom Note to use during the SALE! This SALE for those of you who have never heard is when Nordstrom discounts Fall inventory up to 40% Off so you can stock up for a short time and then all prices go back up! It’s seriously like Christmas in July for me! I enjoy shopping for you all and for myself, it’s a great time to catch new trends going into the new season and get those great boots you are gonna want at a huge discount before they are full price! The Nordstrom Sale is sooo huge that tons of the best items sell out during pre-sale to the Nordstrom card holders so when the sale does open to everyone you may have already missed out! Last year there was a dress I wanted and I waited for one day and it was completely sold out the next during Pre-Sale, so this is no joke 😉 I will try to post the day of the pre-sale with some of my favorites (we will be traveling but I’ll try my best). Also, as I mentioned stay tuned for a giveaway for a Nordstrom Gift Card I will be giving away to one of YOU so you can stock up on some Fall favs!!
