If you have been shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale already, you may have missed a thing or two, but have no fear – you have until July 31st to purchase the products at a major discount. After that, prices will go back up to normal.
ANNIVERSARY SALE SHOPPING TIPS & TRICKS
- Anything that you love and want for yourself, add to your wish list and check out once the sale is live for your card level [reminder: if you don’t have a card, the public sale starts July 15th]! If it isn’t currently available in your size and color preference, things are always coming in and out of stock, so check back often!
- Remember that Nordstrom always offers free shipping and free returns! Because of this, I would recommend ordering two sizes on things you are unsure of, to make sure that you can get it at the sale price and return the one that doesn’t work!
- Some of the items I mention may currently be out of stock, but check back often for restocks! We’ll also be notifying you of restocks over on our Facebook page and #NSALE group [highly recommend joining the group for a ton of helpful info and nightly giveaways!]
- Keep in mind that while the sale lasts until 7/31, things go quick so don’t be like N*Sync and have to say “bye, bye, bye” to everything before it’s gone – shop early!
- If there’s anything I didn’t cover and you still have questions, ask away below and I’ll answer right here so check back! For more Nordstrom Anniversary Sale posts, click here!

Why it’s a miss: It was just way too oversized for my liking, I wanted to love it but couldn’t get there!
Caslon Drape Collar Knit Blazer [Size up, wearing in Medium]
Every year I see this look so cute on my teammates, and every year I’m disappointed in how it looks on myself. Feels like great quality, and so many people love it – it just wasn’t made for my body.
Kut from the Kloth Milana Faux Suede Moto Jacket [TTS, wearing in L] / Kut from the Kloth Reese Straight Leg [TTS, wearing in 10] / Bodysuit [TTS, wearing in L] / Sam Edelman Hazel Pumps [TTS]
I REALLY wanted to like this one! Unfortunately I think it’s just the wrong shape for my body. Too much extra fabric or something? Anyway – it’s smooth like butter so it’s likely worth giving it a try if you’re at all curious about it!

While I loved the IDEA of this jacket, I wasn’t loving the material. I would have preferred a bit more stretch to it, and then I think I would have loved it!
Halogen Crop Chevron Blazer [Size down if in between, wearing in XS] // Kut from the Kloth Fab Ab Jeans [TTS, wearing in Petite length for 5’2”]
Between the oversized collar and chevron pattern it did NOT work…
BP Crop Fleece Jacket [size up if in between] // Zella Ribbed Biker Shorts [sized up two for pregnancy] // Dolce Vita Sneakers [size down .5]
I actually had this jacket as a maybe still to purchase even after trying on, but at the end of the day in the stage of pregnancy I am in with the fleece and the crop I just felt like a marshmallow 😂
Topshop Textured Oversized Blazer [size down 1] / Topshop Textured Ponte Pant [size down 1-2]
I thought this overall look was fun, but I felt like the jacket kind of swallowed me, and I didn’t envision myself reaching for it on a day to day. BUT it was extremely comfortable and could be great for you!
