My Heart is Happy

My love for Nordstrom runs deep... really deep! Between all the fabulous designers they carry, to their free shipping all the time, and amazing customer service I'm hooked. Plus, I never pay full price for clothing and accessories, so a discount version of my favorite store makes me even happier. Their slogan of "where style meets savings" could not be more on point.


When I heard that a new Nordstrom Rack location was opening in Winter Park on March 9th (I was living under a rock until a few weeks ago), I was super excited! Since there aren't any Nordstrom stores in the Central Florida area, our only option was the Nordstrom Rack at Millenia which for locals is a total cluster in and out with high traffic making it super inconvenient. This new location is not only better for locals to access, but is also a short drive from Orlando for visitors as well.


I felt like the layout of the store was set up for my shopping needs. As you walk in, the accessories section which features some of my favorite designers such as Kate Spade, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Michael Kors, and Rebecca Minkoff is to the right. Then you'll come across the beauty section before the kids section where I saw some of the cutest items for lil' miss. Next up was the shoe department, the mens department, and then home goods. I spotted the most adorable cupcake pans that need to make their way into my kitchen as well as some amazing candles, throw pillows, and wall art. In the middle was a haven of women's clothing, and I was even more excited to see an athleisure section with my favorite line - Zella packed with pieces I need for my next yoga class.











*Check out that 95% off markdown - amazing!*


*Loved this colorful display, and I need those Michael Kors weekender bags*




*So many fabulous pieces for festival season*









I will definitely be frequenting this new location in Winter Park Square, and wearing out the strip on my Nordstrom debit card. What are some of your favorite Nordstrom finds?

  15. Everyone has such awesome luck at Nordstrom Rack but me. I always strike out when I go. My sister has found some great stuff. I like this stores set up much better than the one close to me. This one looks amazing, I would probably go all the time if I lived nearby. haha

  16. i could totally get down with that setup. the reason why i hardly shop at discount stores is because it's so disorganized that it makes my control freak type A personality freak out!

  19. Yay!!! So glad you got one! I know how much you love it. The best part is that they accept Nordstrom returns too, so if you order something online you can return it there.

  21. Hooray for Nordstrom Rack! I love it so much, as well as the Nordstrom Debit card. We don't have a big Nordstrom here either and just got a Rack a few months ago and it is so great!

    ReplyDelete
  22. So there's been a NR in my hometown for at least a decade and I've only been once. I shop at Nordstrom all the time but just assumed that NR would be like a Ross. But maybe I should give it a shot - especially since I love me some deals!

  23. I love my Nordstrom Rack. So many good things. Now I want to make a trip this weekend since you got me all excited about all the Spring stuff there.

  26. We have a Nordstrom Rack here in Charleston, and I am OBSESSED. Like so much so that I don't even shop at "regular" Nordstrom that much anymore. Their selection is amazing. Happy shopping!

  28. i need a rack near me, but it's probably for the best that the closest one is 1)in a giant mega mall that i never go near 2)that mega mall is at 40 mins away at best. 3)the alternative one is also 40 mins away 4)requires a train ride or paying to park. no thank you!

  32. I am SO excited there's a Nordstrom Rack so close to us now but I know I'm going to spend way too much! I already spent way more than I planned when we went on Tuesday LOL! The store is so nice too! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes

  33. Ummm did you get those shoes for $4.50???? What?!?! I love Nordstrom Rack!!! We dont have a Nordstrom anywhere near here, I think the closest is the one I used to shop at when I lived in Atlanta!! But I would rather have a Rack anyways. I could literally only shop there and TJ Maxx and be fine forever. Love it!

    ReplyDelete
  34. There's a Nordstrom Rack right near me but I never think to go! I don't know why! After seeing those $4.50 shoes I think I might need to take a trip this weekend!

  35. No post has ever made me want to go shopping more! haha. It's always so fun to see what kind of deals you can find at Nordstrom Rack! I can only imagine how tidy and well stocked a brand new store is too-- so fun to see so many goodies-- those Z hoodies look so cozy!

  37. Looks gorgeous and so exciting we now have a more convenient location although I'm glad I don't work/live too close by because I would be in trouble. The Kate Spade bags alone make me want to visit asap.

  46. LOVE me a good find at Nordstrom Rack. Our closest Nordstrom store is almost 30 minutes away and in the busiest area for shopping so I try to avoid that like the plague, Nordstrom Rack is about 10 minutes away and they have so many options. I love finding great things at a much affordable price, but when I need to I love my free shipping/returns on Nordstrom.com!

  47. So exciting! We have one in Milwaukee and it's amazing! Such good deals :)
