The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is winding down. Aka Sunday is the LAST day! So before the sale officially ends for the year I had to share another one of my favorite purchases {see my jeans + sweater pick and tee + jeans again}. A neutral super simple, lightweight sweater tank. An item you can easily wear now and later. Which are the BEST kinds of purchases, am I right?
A sweater tank has been on my list since spotting my gal Shelby rocking one in April {check out my comment on her post}. Literally since then I have been on the hunt for the perfect neutral lightweight sweater tank. It was important to me that the tank was lightweight so I could wear it through all seasons and layer it with lots. Thankfully, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale provided the PERFECT one!
Since adding a lightweight sweater tank to my wardrobe I now feel EVERY WOMAN NEEDS ONE! Why you ask? Well, let me tell you!
1. As listed above, if it’s lightweight you can wear the sweater tank through ALL seasons.
2. It is an easy piece to dress up or down.
3. It is a closet basic that can be the base for SO many looks!
4. They’re kind of sexy and you can’t help but feel sexy wearing one {when it’s the right one for you}. Seriously, I feel sexy in clothing like 5% of the year, I look like a little girl, I get it, I embrace it {everyone tells me I’ll be thankful for it down the road} but every now and then feeling sexy feels good and y’all wearing this sweater feels all the right kinds of sexy!
Feeling like you need one? Yep, you absolutely do!

I love sweater tanks! Another great place to find them is Zara 🙂 and I agree, theres something about the way that they fall across your body that makes them a little sexy.

I remember having the crazy idea that sweater tanks were counterproductive – a sweater without sleeves? But then I tried one on for the first time and I was HOOKED! They’re so beautiful and comfortable – and they’re a wonderful transitional piece. I love this one on you!
Oh girl, I was right there with you! Lesson learned, they are fabulous haha. Thank you!
