E's Colorful Closet

Hi everyone!  Now that the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is live for everyone, I thought I would share some items that I bought.  I buy things at this sale every year, and I've gotten some really great basic essentials in years past.  I'm also including some things in this post that are on sale, but not part of the Anniversary Sale.  All this means is that their prices won't go up when the Anniversary Sale ends on August 4!  The best part?  Only *two* things in this entire post are over $50! Anniversary Sale Items Caslon Drape Collar Knit Blazer $38.90 (reg. $59) What a great price for this versatile jacket!  It comes in navy, black, dark green, and dark red.  This material can easily be dressed up or down.  This is my normal medium, and it was a hair loose.  If you are in between sizes, I'd suggest going with the smaller size. Abriella Freshwater Pearl Layered Y-Necklace $37.90 (reg. $58) This pearl necklace is gorgeous!...

In the Beginning Jesse Ruffle Romper in In the Beginning $158 This print is so much prettier in person than it is online!  The colors are very vibrant.  I'm not usually a romper person, but I liked this one better than others because it still looks like a skirt from the back, unlike some other Lilly Pulitzer rompers.  The straps are ...

Hi everyone!  It seems like there are new Lilly Pulitzer releases every other day, so I put together a post with some try ons from the last few releases!  For reference, I'm 5'7 and usually a medium, sometimes a large. *This post contains affiliate links.  That means that purchases made through these links may result in a small commission to me, at no extra cost to you.  As always, all choices/opinions are my own.  Affiliate links are what keeps this site up and running, so thank you for your support! Leena Maxi Dress  in Fiesta Bamba $198 This Leena Maxi was really comfortable.  Sizing was very similar to a Sloan Maxi, although the neckline stops just short of being a full v-neck.  I took my normal size in this one. Avalyn Stretch Dress in Pink Tropics Feelin Beachy $198 This Avalyn dress is so cute in person!  I sized up and felt very comfortable, whereas my regular size would have been a tighter fit.  This dress is fo...

Hi everyone!  Today I'm sharing some cool things I've found recently at Aerie.  This post is not sponsored.  Lots of these finds could be perfect to wear with Lilly Pulitzer! Baseball Hat This baseball hat is only $11.16 right now!  The white is sold out online, but may be available in Aerie stores.  The white one is *perfect* to wear with Zest for Life, and the pink matches Lion Around.  The pink hat is much more neon in person (see top picture). Beach Fleece   This beach fleece is on sale for $31.46 and comes in seven different colors.  It has a relaxed fit and is super soft - perfect to throw on at any time!  The "julep" color matches my Lion Around shorts (see picture at the top of this post)! Striped Bikini This bikini top  is $17.97 and the bottom is $14.97, making the entire suit cost less than $33!  I love the neon colors with white stripes - perfect for summer! Gelato One Piece Swim...
