PreMed Wears Pearls

  I did not mean for a 6+ month blog hiatus to happen, but school and being on rotations really ate up most of my attention this winter and spring! But, I am back and now a fourth year medical student with (I hope), a little more flexibility in her schedule this year! It is that time of year again, so thought I would share my picks for this year's Nordstrom Sale. I know so many people will be putting out content of their sale picks and it can get overwhelming so here are my two cents: you do not need anything, I always take this time of year to grab essentials that I use almost every day because they do not go on sale often. A couple of things I like to pick up during the sale are my favorite bra, sunscreen and maybe a pair of sneakers. This year my favorite pair of sneakers are actually part of the sale so I hope I can snag these!  I think other pieces that are worth shopping the sale for are things like jackets that rarely go on sale like Barbour-I have one and it is a close...

  One of my favorite sales of the year is here: the Hill House Home annual sale! Everything is currently 30% off- even the new holiday and home collections! I shared some of my favorite HHH outfits from the year as some inspiration and my sale picks. HHH makes some really great basic everyday wardrobe staples and some very fun specialty pieces- I reach for these dresses so so often!

  The Sephora Sale starts today! I always love this sale because I use it to stock up on my favorite products and treat myself to some new goodies to try. It is also great to do a bit of holiday shopping early! Below, I have all of my picks for the sale but just want to highlight a handful of my favorites that have been in my routine for a while now: - Paula's Choice Toner: I tried a lot of toners before this one and have repurchased this one so many times now. I think it has made a huge difference in my skin- less breakouts/texture and clearer, smaller pores. I use it as part of my night time routine and can't recommend it enough! - Dyson AirWrap : I think this is 100% worth it. It is the only hair tool I use now. I love how it makes your hair look like you got a professional blowout every time! I think I use it almost every day so the cost per use has basically paid for itself now. The Sephora Sale is one of the best times to try it! - Moroccan Oil Dry Shampoo : This is my...

I love when more classic pieces become "trendy" because that means endless options to add to your forever closet. The obsession with the Lady Jacket silhouette has been one of my favorites this year. This fall, they are everywhere in the best way possible. I have a handful of these style of jackets/sweaters and they are on heavy rotation in my closet. I reach for them often and they have been the perfect addition to my clinic wardrobe. These jackets look so effortless and polished and can definitely be styled casual to professional. I searched the internet to find some of my favorite styles of these jackets and tried to find some at all price points- I even found one on Amazon!

  I cannot believe we are over half way through August. I am always of the endless summer mindset, this season never feels long enough. With studying for boards and starting clinical rotations this summer, it has made this time go by even more quickly. I realize it had been awhile since I have done a round up of my favorites and figured summer favorites would be a fun one to start with again. Enjoy, this is a long one, and happy almost Virgo season :) WHAT I'M LOVING: Kate Pants - I would much rather be in a dress than in pants, but I bought a couple of pairs of these pants to have some more options for clinical rotations. The cut is so flattering and the material has some stretch and makes them pretty comfy. I highly recommend if you are looking for a great pair of work pants or nicer pants/trousers. I think the fit is true to size/slightly big so if you order them maybe order your normal size and one size down to compare. Lady Jacket - These sweater jackets have been something I ...
