Everyday Motherhood with Nordstrom

Wearing the MOTHER TomCat jeans and Vince Wool blend top

In partnership with Nordstrom, today I am sharing all of my recent purchases and my experience using their Nordstrom Trunk Club, try before you buy service, their easy to use online stylist chat and their Virtual Styling services! You can find the services HERE. Enjoy XOXO

Are you like me, a busy mom who’s style and wardrobe get put on the back burner? Most of the time I dress my kids nicer than I dress myself. I hate driving to the mall to try things on, and in store returns are not my jam, especially with four small children that I usually have in tow with me! That’s when I found out about Nordstrom’s message a stylist and virtual stylist services! Both are FREE and a way for you to either message with a real life stylist online or in their app , or meet one-on-one virtually with a stylist to get free style tips, product recommendations, help finding certain items you’re looking for, or even curate entire looks for you! Like I said, it’s free, there’s zero pressure to buy, free shipping and returns!

I found these services super helpful. I messaged my stylist through the Nordstrom app and asked for specific recommendations on Veja shoes I was looking for and basic white tees. She sent me a link to all the items she gathered for me, and I was able to just quickly shop from there! Easy peasy. My virtual stylist session was pretty neat in the fact that I set up a meeting with a stylist, sent her my wishlist through the Nordstrom app, and we agreed on a time and day. We video chatted after she drove to the store, pulled the items for me, found ones that were similar or she thought I might like, and then mailed them to me! I chatted with her via video chat, she got to know my style more and once delivered to my door I tried them on and sent what I didn’t want back with a free shipping return label!

My Trunk Club experience was also super FUN! If you are a Nordstrom card holder, you get the $25 fee waived! Otherwise you pay that for each trunk sent to you, but it is credited toward whatever you keep. I downloaded the Trunk Club app on my phone, took the style quiz, and a stylist was matched with me who then sent me 10 items that I thought I would like/need in my trunk. I got to accept or decline the items in the app until I was satisfied with what was in my trunk and then it was shipped right to my door, without paying anything! Once they arrived at my home, I tried them all on, decided what I wanted to keep and return, and packed it back up, put the free return shipping label on, and sent it back in the mail. You have the option to schedule a pickup or return to your nearest post office! After shipping them back, I logged back onto my Trunk Club app and paid for what I decided to keep! Try Before you Buy. Literally, the coolest feature out there! I loved my experience and will definitely do it again.

I thought that the Nordstrom Trunk Club experience  gave me an opportunity to try brands I’ve never tried before or were hesitant at purchasing because I didn’t want to spend the money on something I didn’t want. This allowed me to choose items I ultimately wanted, but didn’t want to pay up front and then only after deciding if I wanted to keep them did I have to pay! I got the MOST comfortable pair of jeans. I am not a jean girl, but I wanted a pair that would be my go-tos and pair I always reach for. These are IT, and there is definitely something to be said for quality over quantity when it comes to comfortable jeans!

Below are the items I received between my message a stylist, virtual stylist, and trunk club experience! I did not keep them all, just the items I absolutely LOVED! I think that these services are perfect for anyone looking for help shopping, whether that be for yourself or gift for a friend, this is not out of reach or a luxury service but rather an experience that anyone can enjoy and take advantage of! Here are my TOP items I loved, and know you will too!
