Well friends, we’ve reached the end of another week. You know what that means. Fashion Friday!
Fashion in Film
I listened to the first episode of this podcast co-hosted by Mark-Paul Gosselaar of Saved by the Bell. Yep, Zack is back! This was such an iconic show for me and it got me thinking of all my favorite fashion moments from TV and film.
The Calvin Klein dress in Clueless.
The red gown in Pretty Woman.
Marilyn’s halter dress in The Seven Year Itch.
Anything Audrey Hepburn ever wore on screen.
There’s a reason people win Oscars for costume design. Clothes are like another character; they help bring the story to life.
If you’ve never seen Down With Love, you must watch it. I ADORE the costumes in this movie!

Are People Still Shopping?
I’m sure this comes as no surprise to you, but the fashion industry is not doing well. In store traffic is virtually non-existent, stores are filing for bankruptcy left and right and the industry as a whole is having to rethink the fashion system.
So what is actually selling? Where are people shopping?
Unsurprisingly, athletic wear and loungewear are the two categories that remain unscathed by the pandemic. They’re thriving, in fact. Lululemon, Nike, Adidas and Under Armor increased their sales by almost 50% year-over-year. Any store offering deep discounts is doing well too. Zara, LL Bean and J. Crew also reported good sales last month, thanks mostly to their almost 80% off discounts.
Are you still shopping? If so, what are you shopping for?
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
And that brings me to the frenzy-inducing Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. If one sale gets people out of bed to shop, it’s this one. While I ADORE Nordstrom, this sale is not for me. It discounts upcoming fall merchandise and does a good job of offering wardrobe basics. While basics are important, I’m a treasure hunter. I’m not interested in the same cardigan that 10 million other people have.
While I have covered this sale for the past 4 years, I will not be covering it this year. There are, however, some great deals on beauty and loungewear I’ll be shopping.
Specifically, I’ll be restocking:
