And just like that, we are almost into the fall season.

Seriously you guys, where does the time go!?

But anyway, one of the big trends I'm noticing for fall is a lot of western and prairie inspired pieces. Maybe it's just the Westworld fan in me, but I am all about this look. Expect me to rock plenty of calico prints, suede, and maybe even a pair of cowboy boots this autumn.

It's everyone's favorite time of year: the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! There are a LOT of good things on sale this year and so many great pieces to stock up on now before fall rolls around, so I've done a lot of the heavy lifting for you and rounded up my favorite on-sale pieces!

Over the past year or two, I have fallen deeply in love with Reformation. They're ultra-chic, slightly-retro dresses are flirty and feminine, and I have found so many simple and gorgeous dresses from Ref that it has become one of my favorite stores.

It came out over 10 years ago, but I still think back on the 2007 film Atonement a lot. The film was a revelation for me. Its plot devastated me, pulling at my heartstrings all the way through before obliterating them with that cruel, cruel ending. It was a beautiful study in cinematography and production design; who can forget that long tracking shot of James McAvoy wandering through the chaotic French beach in the midst of the war?
