My birthday is this Sunday and the birthday gifts have already started to file in. My dad knows how much I love shopping at Nordstrom and gifted me a $250 gift card to get anything that’s been sitting on my wishlist. I immediately took to the site, and while I was initially overwhelmed, I was able to round up six fashion and beauty items from Reformation, Topshop, Anastasia Beverly Hills, Yves Saint Laurent, Kiehls, and more with $10 to spare. Shop my picks below.

6 Fashion and Beauty Editor Birthday Picks:

Mango Shadowin Tipped Cardigan

I’ve had my eye on Mango’s Shadowin Tipped Cardigan since it came to Nordstrom, and now I have an excuse to add it to my cart. It features a posh polo collar, a classic button-up design for easy on and off, and an all-over ribbing that offers lots of stretch. It’s available in white with contrasting black tipping and black with white tipping, and it ranges from size XS through XL and falls a few inches below the natural waist. I’d pair these with low-waisted jeans or a black mini-skirt with knee-high boots.

Topshop Bias-Cut Satin Maxi Skirt

As soon as temperatures hit above 50 degrees, I’m putting my favorite maxi skirts back into rotation, but my collection won’t be complete until I get a hold of Topshop’s Bias-Cut Satin Maxi Skirt. The slip skirt comes in three colors, including navy, gray, and ivory, plus sizes 0 through 14. It has a sleek, satin finish, an elastic waistband for easy on and off, and a straight silhouette that falls below the ankle without dragging. But the reason I’m choosing this skirt over another style is that it’s cut on the bias which allows it to hug the curves like a knit fabric despite it being woven. 

Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat All-Over Brightening Concealer Pen

My secret to bright under-eyes for the last two years has been Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat All-Over Brightening Concealer Pen, and though I recently ran out, I’m restocking with my Nordstrom gift card — and it’s on rare sale. The concealer is available in 13 shades, ranging from light to deep, and its purpose is to brighten, highlight, and smooth out the complexion. 

I love how well the packaging deposits the formula; when you click the bottom of the pen, the concealer bubbles up into the tapered brush tip. It’s formulated with hyaluronic acid and vitamin E to increase hydration, help fight signs of aging, and provide light coverage. I use it under my eyes to brighten my dark circles, as a highlight on the bridge of my nose, and at the peaks of my brow bone.
