How to Shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (2019)

Fashion· Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

6 Jul

how to shop the nordstrom anniversary sale In case you haven’t heard, Nordstrom’s biggest sale of the year is coming soon! The sale runs July 19th – August 4th. However, if you are a Nordstrom cardholder, you can access the sale beginning July 12th! I highly recommend early access if you are a Nordstrom fan. The most popular items fly off the shelf (so to speak) very quickly, and while they used to refresh the stock before the sale opens to the public, they have not done that the past two years. I set aside a large portion of my annual clothing budget for this sale simply because it’s so good, and most of my favorite pieces are purchased during this sale. As you start thinking about how to shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, here are some key categories to keep in mind:

Designer Denim

If you are in the market for a new pair of jeans, this is the sale for you! Most pairs included in the sale are $75-100 off and they are the newest styles and colors. It might be possible to find designer jeans for less at Nordstrom Rack or Saks Off 5th, but stores like that are hit or miss because you never know what you are going to find in terms of sizing and colors. I have purchased two or three pairs of AG Jeans during the Anniversary Sale, and I’m planning to do so again this year. They are my most worn jeans.

Handbags

Whether you’re in the market for a designer bag or a less expensive tote (like some of the ones from this new post!), Nordstrom has you covered! There is a great selection of bags in the freshest fall colors. Need a new wallet? They have those too.

Boots and Booties

With fall fast approaching (I can’t believe I just said that… summer came so late this year!), it’s the perfect time to stock up on boots and booties! I got this pair of Jeffrey Campbell booties two years ago after much hemming and hawing and I couldn’t be happier. You can see this year’s version here. They’ve been a workhorse in my fall/winter wardrobe the past two years. Now that they are starting to show some wear, I’ll be on the lookout for a potential replacement this year.

Outerwear

If you need a new jacket, this is the time to invest! Here in the Bay Area, I don’t tend to wear heavy coats very often. Blank NYC makes a great suede jacket that’s often part of the sale. A jacket like this would work in almost any climate!

Fall Wardrobe Basics

This includes short and long sleeved t-shirts, sweaters, button downs, etc. In the market for a cashmere sweater? Now’s the time. They often put the super soft Rails plaid shirts on sale too, so if you’ve been eyeing one, this will be a good time to pull the trigger. I own three and you can see how I styled one of them here.

Intimate Apparel and Loungewear

You know how some brands simply never go on sale or if they do, it’s an odd color in a size you don’t need? Not at this sale! You can find the best brands in all the colors at good prices. My favorite lounge brand is Make + Model. They are cozy and wonderful and I’m thinking it’s time for a new set!

A Really Great Dress

This Leith ruched dress has been a shopper favorite for a few years now! Although I don’t think it’s typically part of the Anniversary sale, I had to include a picture because it’s a great example of a versatile dress that would work for many different occasions. Also, it’s on sale! My favorite little black dress from this post is an example of a past Anniversary Sale find – so good!

Makeup/Skincare

There are often value sets of both skincare and makeup products. This year, there is a Dior lip trio that includes one of my all time favorite beauty products, Dior Lip Glow. Add to cart!

A Splurge Item

For me, this has been the Barefoot Dreams circle cardigan. At $90 on sale, this is the most I’ve ever paid for a cardigan and I bought one two years ago thinking there was no way I would keep it. I now own it two colors because I love it so much! Ha. Whether it’s a cozy cardigan, designer jeans, a leather jacket, or a new purse, this is a good time to invest in that one special piece you’ve been eyeing.

Kids’ Shoes

July is the perfect time to get a jump on back to school shopping. I buy both boys Nikes (which rarely go on sale) during the sale and set them aside for the first day of school. Believe me, you’ll be glad you did this!

what to buy at the Nordstrom anniversary sale, how to shop the Nordstrom anniversary saleIf you take the time to think about how to shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale by doing a simple inventory of your closet, it will save you a lot of time when the sale starts! There is so much good stuff and it can be kind of overwhelming if you don’t know what you are looking for. This advice is actually helpful for shopping in general. I always have a mental list of items I want to add to my wardrobe to make the time I have to shop more focused and efficient.

Last year we were in Spain when the sale started, so I had to do all of my shopping online. This year I’m thrilled to be able to shop in store! Of course I will also be scouring the website to share all my favorites! If you don’t already follow me on instagram and Facebook, make sure to do so now as I’ll be posting a lot of updates and stories there. What are you in the market for? Let me know in the comments!
