Guys, it’s our favorite time of the year! It’s the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! You’ve probably heard about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale by now, but just in case you are unaware, what makes this sale so amazing is that the sale is on BRAND NEW items for fall! Select new items are on sale for a limited time, and then they go back to full price. Early access to the sale for Nordstrom card members started last week, and the public sale starts this Friday. Also in case you are unaware, while you do have to be a Nordstrom cardholder to gain early access, you have the option of applying for a Nordstrom credit card, or a Nordstrom debit card, which is tied to your checking account.

Items in the sale tend to sell out fast, but many of them do come back into stock during the duration of the sale. My advice is to create add all the things you want to your cart, and then just check back every day to see if an out of stock item you have your eye on becomes available.
We’ve combed the site, and these are the items we have our eye on this year. The prices below reflect the current sale price, as well as what the regular price goes back up to starting on August 7th.
SHOES:
The first thing I look at every year is the shoes. This is the PERFECT time to get a new pair of fall boots. Mules are also a huge trend for fall. I’m trying to decide between these, these, and these.
SWEATERS:
We may be in the heat of the summer, but nothing puts be in the mood for fall more than picking out a new sweater or two. I’m OBSESSED with this one in lilac. It’s currently sold out in my size, but I have my fingers crossed that it comes back. This cardigan also looks super cozy.
TOPS:
This is a perfect time to stock up on some good basics. This is a cute twist on a basic tee and I love the sleeves on this one.
BOTTOMS:
If you are in need of a new pair of jeans, Shelby loves these! I think these would be super cute with a pair of the mules I have my eye on.
DRESSES:
Velvet was a big trend last fall, and it’s still around this season. I love this wrap dress and the color on this one is gorgeous! This one would be super cute with tights and booties in the fall, but it’s also something you could wear now.
JACKETS:
Like with sweaters, it’s hard to think about coats and jackets right now, but there are so many great ones on MAJOR sale. I almost bought this one during last year’s anniversary sale, and I regretted not getting it. This is great lightweight jacket and I love this one in grey.
ACCESSORIES:
After shoes, one of the other things I look at first are the accessories. I will say I was a bit disappointed with this year’s offerings overall, but this tote is hands down the best bag ever and you NEED it. This hat is super cute and at this price I wouldn’t feel bad if I only wore it a few times. I have a version of these earrings and they go with literally everything.
ACTIVEWEAR:
I’ve heard really good things about these leggings, but I’ve never tried them, so I’m taking advantage of the sale price and purchasing a pair. Every year I also tend to pick up a new pair of sneakers, and these year I have my eye on these. This jacket never goes on sale so it’s the perfect time to take advantage of the deep discount on an investment piece.
BEAUTY:
Nordstrom offers so many great beauty exclusives during the anniversary sale! This is a great deal on some of my favorite skincare products. This highlighting palette is amazing and I love the colors in this palette.
LOUNGE:
I bought two pairs of these pj’s during last years sale. The are the comfiest pj’s I own! This year I’m going to grab these pants and Shelby has already bought these slippers.
HOME:
Don’t overlook the home decor! I stock up on these candles every year. I’m also obsessed with this bar cart and this throw looks so cozy!
Have you shopped the sale yet? What did you buy? Or if you don’t have early access, what items are you hoping to buy this year? We’re planning on filming a haul video for our YouTube Channel to show you guys everything we ended up purchasing, so look for that in the coming weeks!
