I am totally digging the whole feminine menswear trend.  It’s super adorable to add a girlie twist (check out that bow tie!) to traditionally masculine pieces.  The trick to the whole menswear for women is to make sure the pieces possess a trait of masculinity (oxfords, for example) but still retain some femininity (glittery oxford…yes, please!).  Here are five affordable ways to borrow from the boys when updating your wardrobe for fall!

In honor of Nordstrom’s anniversary sale, which started at midnight today, I thought it would be fun to show you some Nordstrom goodies I recently (as in on 7/18) spotted in Last Chance and the masssive amount of money you could save by braving what can sometimes be a crazy shopping experience!

This week we chose five items to go along with our Color Of The Month for July!  (Seriously, the level of obsession we have with fun prints borders on a true illness!)  The five items above are plenty of fun on their own for those of you who are just beginning to experiment with prints, but for those of you who are more daring some of these pieces would look absolutely adorable together.

Take for example, those green dot pants. How perfect would they be paired with the heart sweater or the striped peplum top?  (The shoes also come in leopard print with a pink bow, which would be an excellent compliment to the pants and sweater or top combo!)
