$HOE$ BY $IZE FROM NORD$TROM

Hello everyone! It's time for another installment of $HOE$ BY $IZE, and this time I am featuring one of everyone's favorite stores -- Nordstrom. I love this store because you can find a wide variety of styles as well as both high-end and moderately priced items. It's hard to go into Nordy's and not find at least one thing you want to go home with. In my opinion, one of the best parts of Nordstrom is the shoe section. Without further ado, I present to you my picks from their shoe $ale $ection, organized by size for your convenience. Please note, I will list any other available sizes in each style below the photos. If you see something you like that isn't in your size category, check to see if your size is available too. 


Here we go!

Okay, so I couldn't resist posting these, even though the price is up there. I remember when I first saw these stretch suede Prada boots on the runway, and would fully support one of you guys investing in these insane shoes. I mean, they are about 65% off. That justifies it... right?

Greetings $oldiers! So, I know everyone reading this blog isn't living in Austin, but around these parts it has finally seemed to cool down enough to bust out some of your best sweaters and jackets. I don't know about you guys, but this cold front has me craving some new fall/winter options! I have a feeling some of you might know what I mean, so I've compiled a list of sweaters and jackets for you ladies and gentlemen. Here we go!
