Hi friends! Nordstrom just kicked off their Spring Bonus Points Event for cardholders—perfect timing if you’re shopping for Mother’s Day (or treating yourself!). From May 7–13, Nordy Club cardmembers will earn a $20 Note for every $200 spent at Nordstrom.
Those Notes add up fast and can be used toward your spring/summer wardrobe—or saved for the Anniversary Sale in July. (Yes, it’s coming… don’t shoot the messenger!)
This is a great time to stock up on wardrobe and beauty essentials—think bras, underwear, shapewear, makeup, and skincare. I also like to use the Bonus Points Event as an excuse to splurge on luxury items that rarely go on sale.
I’ve put together a few quick shopping widgets with some of my favorites, including a dedicated one for swimwear. I hope you find it helpful!
Best of Beauty
If you’re restocking your beauty bag, here are the makeup and skincare favorites I always come back to—and a few fun extras to try.
Favorite Foundations
These everyday essentials are rarely part of a sale or promo, so this is a great time to refresh your top drawer!
Favorite Denim & Pants at Nordstrom
You know I love my denim, so I rounded up my top picks across a range of price points. I also included a few non-denim pant options.
Favorite Shoes at Nordstrom
From casual sneakers to dressy sandals, Nordstrom has a great selection of shoes at every price point. These are some of the styles I’m loving this season.
Favorite Dresses, Tops, Sweaters & Jackets
This section’s a big one, so I’m skipping the captions. I’ve got everything from dresses for spring and summer events to versatile tops, tees, lightweight sweaters, and a few great jackets too.
Favorite Swimwear at Nordstrom
Swimwear rarely goes on sale, and sizes tend to go quickly—especially as we get closer to Memorial Day. If you’re shopping ahead for vacation or pool season, this is a great time to grab what you need while the selection is still good!
Handbags, Jewelry & Accessories
The right accessories can completely change the vibe of an outfit. From everyday handbags to statement earrings and seasonal extras, these are a mix of my go-to favorites and a few new fun finds.

It sounds like you and Becca had an enjoyable time at the mall. I really like the sandals that both of you purchased. I have not paid attention to my notifications from Nordstrom, so I’m appreciative of you letting us know about the Notes event. I just might need to do some shopping. Have a great day!
Thanks for heads up on Nordstrom notes event. I want to try the underwear. Also I need a swimsuit so will take a look.
Hi! I recently purchased the La Blanca swimsuit (blue in above link). I love the fabric and quality, however I’m small busted and wonder if it’s just me or the style on top allows for a lot of skin to show, especially under the arms and the sides above the chest/ boobs. lol. I’d love to see a “regular” gal model it, lol . Any chance you have a photo modeling the suit? I know that’s a strange “ask” but maybe it’s just not for my body type. I may try the other style you feature above as well in green. Thanks!
This is the only one I have. I find it quite modest. https://jolynneshane.com/2017-swimsuit-guide-for-women-over-40.html
Thanks! I appreciate the pictures and follow up. I’ve been buying Lands End tankinis for years, and would like to switch it up for our beach vacay to NC later this summer. Those photos are helpful. I also read a few reviews online with photos. Thank you. 🥰
Nothing better than shoe shopping at Nordstrom!!
