Cecil was a beloved lion who lived in a protected African park. He was much loved by many because he loved to pose for photos. He was hunted and tragically killed - I cannot understand why anyone would hunt for game. I really don't. These majestic animals are here for us to enjoy their beauty, not to be lured and killed for fun.
In honor of Cecil, here are some beautiful lion inspired gift ideas:

Did you know that you can treat grey as a neutral? It goes with every color so you can easily use it as a base and add a bright purse or shoe for a nice contrasting pop of color. Here are some of our favorite pieces from Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale. Remember - you only have 10 days left to shop and save BIG before prices go back up on August 3rd!
Giraffes are such elegant animals - I've loved them all my life. My parents love telling this story of me as a 2 year old, sitting in the back while they drove through this zoo. They had bought me a bag of food so that I could feed the giraffes. Well, I stuck all my fingers in his mouth and he maybe nibbled a bit too hard and I got scared - big time. But I still insisted on feeding them. Good times.
I remember taking my daughter to the Animal Kingdom in Walt Disney World - we were sitting on the tram ride and we watched a whole herd of giraffes running down a hill at top speed. Now, you would think that the giraffes would have toppled head over heel because they're so gangly...but no, they were as graceful as ever! We're lucky to live here in San Diego - so close to the zoo and Safari Park that we can go see them whenever we want.
Here are some fun finds that I've rounded up for you!
This sweet fringed cardigan is so soft and comfortable - it's perfectly weighted for a slightly chilly evening on the beach. I love the fringe and the "sunset" stripes. If you want it - hurry and get it - it's on sale right now and it's almost sold out. I wear a size 4 and this one in Small is a little on the big side.
If you LOVED the kate spade for girls line that came out a few months ago, you're in luck - because it's now 50% off!! Gotta hurry - they're selling out fast! Happy shopping!
Seriously - aren't these the prettiest diamond drinking glasses ever? I don't drink, but these are pretty for any drink! They're on sale here for $25.99. Cheers!
It's almost boot season! Well, not quite, but we can be prepared with this awesome sale, right?! I bought a pair of the UGG knit boots - they are SUPER cute and comfortable with a ribbon lace back. And the price is perfect as well - on sale for $129 - they're already sold out at several locations. And these UGG leather boots - the braid detail on it is beautiful.
The Frye boot is another favorite of mine - I may get it because it's 35% off but I already have 3 pairs of boots and living in San Diego, it's going to be hard to justify buying another pair of boots since I can really only wear them 3 months out of the year if I'm lucky.
The Sperry boots are SO cute and comes in 2 colors - navy blue/brown and beige/tan - Also perfectly priced at $79 - they are almost sold out, so go get a pair if you want them!
You also can't go wrong with Sorel boots - they're super comfortable and cute while keeping your feet warm. I have a pair from 2 years ago when I went up to Idaho for the winter and I LOVE mine. Seriously though - they sell out of the cute ones every single year so jump on these if you want a pair at an awesome price!
Tory Burch - without say, these are beautiful and at 40% off - you can't go wrong with them. Yes - a bit pricey, but if you're in the market for a pair - you know they're a steal.
I'm loving the neutral fashion pieces that i've found for the fall - easily mix and match or add a pop of color for some fun. All pieces are on sale at up to 40% off and the anniversary sale ends on August 2nd!
Happy Saturday! Here are my favorite finds in home decor for under $25 at Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale! Don't forget to check out all of our other Nordstrom Anniversary Sale posts!
