THE BEST #NSALE BASICS I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT

The #NSALE is finally open for everyone to shop! Several items sold out during Early Access but there are still lots of amazing items available. I was stoked to see that some of my long-time favorite items were included in this year's sale AND are still fully stocked. It's easy to get carried away with the sale and buy things that you'll likely never wear (I know I'm guilty of this!) Instead of just sharing everything that's cute, I wanted to share the best versatile pieces you can wear a million different ways. These are my tried-and-true, holy grail basics from the sale.
I love sharing my personal style with you all. Should you click on or make a purchase through the links in this post, I’ll earn some money to keep on shopping! Pretty cool, huh? :)

CLICK HERE FOR SALE INFO, SHOPPING TIPS + ITEMS THAT WILL SELL OUT

SIZE INFO: I normally wear a small/medium in most things. For tees + things I always go for a medium-large so they are nice and loose. In jeans, I'm a 4/6 or 27/28. In leggings, I wear a size small.

1. BP Long Sleeve Raw Edge Pocket Tee [$15.90, after sale $25.00]
Best long-sleeve basic tees. I wear a medium for a slightly loose fit. The short-sleeve version is on sale too for $12. Several color options. 

2. Vintage CZ Ear Crawlers [$24.90, after sale $39.00]
I purchased these earrings several years ago and I still wear them almost everyday. They dress up any outfit, are amazing quality and look like real diamonds. I have the silver but they also come in gold + rose gold.

3. Zella Live-In Leggings [$38.90, after sale $59.00]
These and the Spanx leggings (also part of the sale) are my two favorite brands. I own several pairs and they hold up so well, I still even have and wear my first pair from years back. They suck everything in just right + are flattering without being constricting. I wear a small. Loving this pair with pockets too.

4. UGG Perforated Slip-On Sneakers [$64.90, after sale $99.95]
I purchased this pair of UGG slip-on sneakers a few years ago and they are the best. Super comfy + go with everything. UGGs never go on sale so I was excited (and surprised) to see this year's version included. They're updated with cute perforated holes. I wear a size 7.5 in these (usually an 8 in most shoes + regular UGG boots).

5. STS Ripped High Waist Skinny Jeans [$38.90, after sale $59.00]
High-waisted, distressed jeans are a must-have for any closet. This pair is one of the few affordable ones from the sale that I love. In my experience, STS denim is very stretchy + runs big so I would go down a size or two. 

6. Barefoot Dreams CozyChic Lite Island Cardigan [$72.90, after sale $110]
If you're going to splurge on anything from the sale, go Barefoot Dreams or go home. They make the softest, coziest cardigans ever (and blankets, socks, etc...). I own a few cardigans and I live in them during the fall + winter. 100% worth the money. They run big so size down. I always buy the smallest size available. 

Styles on sale:

Circle Cardi / Long Cardi / CozyChic "Fluffy" Cardi / Island Cardi (pictured) / Cozy Wrap / Throw

7. Steve Madden Black Leather Booties [$86.90, after sale $129.95]
My most used pair of booties every fall are black leather chelsea boots. They are versatile, sleek, a little edgy and go with virtually anything. It's hard to find a nice looking leather pair that isn't ridiculously expensive. I saw these Steven Madden booties and fell in love. They have the perfect shape + the perfect amount of heel. Reviews say these run small + to go up half a size. 

8. Wubbly Fleece Pullover [$49.90, after sale $78.00]
For those too cold to give a f*ck days in the winter. Super cozy and lots of warmth + fluff. You can see me wearing mine in this post. If you want it to be oversized + a little slouchy, I would purchase your normal coat/jacket size. If you want it a little more fitted, size down. 

9. Long Sleeve Thermal Henley [$24.90, after sale $38.00]
One of my favorite easy, versatile tops for the fall + winter. Looks cute with jeans + booties or leggings + sneaks. Last year large was the only size left so that's what I have. It's a little bit big so I would order a medium in my next one. I love the cream, burgundy + mustard shades.

10. BP Lightweight Sweater [$25.90, after sale $39.00]
Another easy, versatile basic. This sweater is a great transition piece for cooler weather but layers well too. Very flattering on + comfy to wear. TTS, size up if you want it to be a little slouchy + oversized.

11. BP Lace Trim Satin Cami [$25.90, after sale $39.00]
These satin camis sold out completely but they did an entire restock! They're a classic, feminine piece + very versatile. I grabbed a black, leopard + polka dot. I'm personally not a big fan of the ivory because it's very see-through (ordered it last year + returned). These are on the looser, "flowy" size. I wear a size small. 

Have a great weekend!
