The Holidays have arrived! In this blog, I have compiled my top fashion picks and must haves for this year’s Christmas list. Alongside it, I have built a page of recommendations I’ve found on the web. Some are even on sale right now because of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Give it a look to find some steals!

IT’S CYYYYYBER WEEEEEEKKKKK!
You didn’t think I’d leave y’all hanging, did ya?
Well, actually, Sherri, we kind of did. You haven’t really been living up to your self-appointed title of World’s Okayest Blogger, now have you?
Ummmmmmm, (laughs nervously) can we all agree that 2020 doesn’t count? Just, like, in general? Because Best Self Sherri officially dipped out in March, and I’m over here crossing my fingers that she’ll come back for 2021. (John, on the other hand is blatantly crossing everything, because apparently, COVID Sherri is a real treat.)
Read MoreHey y’all! You didn't think I’d leave ya hanging this Anniversary Sale, did you?? (and please just ignore the fact that this is my first blog in 2020, mkay?) I sort of expected my 40th year on earth to be a total dumpster fire, but that’s another blog in and of itself. But just let me say, um hi, 2020? YOU CAN GO AWAY NOW. Also, I miss you, 2019. And you weren’t even all that amazing.
Read MoreOkay. Deep breaths. This is what we've trained for, people.

Not only has Early Access to Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale started, it is also Amazon Prime Day. It's like that bomb cyclone storm thing, except on your wallet. #funforall #exceptforjohn
First of all, to shop the Anniversary Sale right now, you're gonna need to get a Nordstrom credit card. And I know, I know, you're certain that the minute you do, creditors will be calling and your credit score will automatically drop from 800 to 300. BUT, if you have actual boundaries, and even a minimal amount of self-discipline, then none of that will happen. Probably. Maybe. Seriously though, here’s what you do
Read MoreI know, I know, you thought I had disappeared from the blog. And I would just like to do what I normally do when I need to explain myself: blame it on the kids. Or bronchitis. Actually both. This may shock you, but it turns out that kids actually DON’T understand the concept of mom working from home. I mean, they can SEE YOU. Why shouldn’t you be able to get them a snack/play monster trucks/clean up their rooms? I mean, YOU’RE RIGHT THERE. CLEARLY, YOU’RE AVAILABLE. Summer is STRESSFUL on them, DUH. THEY NEED YOU.
*insert ALL THE EYE ROLLS. Every last one of them.
Read MoreMe: January you’re the actual worst month, and no other month will ever be as bad as you.
February: Hold my beer.
February 1st : I fall down the stairs and break my finger. (Heels with wide leg jeans may not be the best idea. Fashion can be dangerous.)
Feb. 2nd: Bo barfs all over my bed. And my FACE. AND my general sense of well-being.
Read MoreIt's cold, rainy, and gross outside today, so I say let's blame EVERYTHING on the weather. Like how we are sitting around in our pjs watching Home Alone 2 for the 17th time since Christmas. Or how we JUST HAVE TO peruse the insanely good post-holiday sales online. Maybe even how the drop in barometric pressure caused me to trip and fall onto the "purchase" button and buy everything in my Shopbop cart. #sherrilogic #whoops
So apologies if this post is all over the place, but I wanted to share the goodness in case you, too, wanted to blame your spending habits on the weather. It may also have something to do with a 4 year old who likes to sneak up behind me and scream. Which results in shrieking, dropping my laptop, and actively trying not to have a heart attack.. #schoolbreakisfun
Now that I’ve recovered from Bo’s attempt to kill me, I bring you…
The Sales You Should Hit Today, You Know, Because of the Weather. *Wink:
Read MoreYou know how, when Nordstrom has a sale, you never know about it? Because no one on social media EVER mentions it?
*rolls eyes so hard they fall out of her head.
*Picks them up and puts them back in again, because it is my mission and duty to make Nordstrom love me, buy one of every thing, give John a heart attack, I mean, INFORM you guys of important ways to wreck your credit score.
Read MoreSomeone once told me, “blondes should never wear yellow.” After a SAY WHAT, followed by a HOW DARE YOU, it became my mission to find a flattering yellow for blondes. Specifically, blondes who aren’t actually blondes, and who also have the skin tone of a piece of notebook paper.
It me.
Anyway, I love yellow and all it’s iterations, but every time I reach for it, I hear that little voice reminding me that blondes can’t pull off yellow. (Coincidentally, it’s the same little voice that likes to remind me that I’m NOT a size 2 and that I’m NOT in my early 30’s.)

It’s officially November y’all! Otherwise known as The Month In Which Sherri Plans to Blame Everything on the Time Change.
Including but not limited to mood swings, overspending, forgetting things (like her budget and how to fold laundry), and her overall state of general disorganization.
