Not gonna lie…this year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale looks super lame. Here are the facts: many of the deals you see during this sale end up getting slashed even more at the end of the season, and the majority ends up at Nordstrom Rack for a fraction of the cost thereafter. This has become even more true in the last 3 years or so. If all the giant hauls are stressing you the fuck out, I get it. Keep your cool, you won’t regret it. Here’s why: there are only a few real deals that actually make sense for your wallet/wardrobe. Here’s what’s worth being on your radar this year.
NSale: Beauty
Beauty is honestly the best part of this sale this year IMO. Nordstrom hooks it THE F UP with promotional large-sized products, which often clock at retail for regular-sized ones. This includes products like lotions, hair products, devices, and more.
NSale: Activewear
If you miss picking something up in this category, you’ve missed OUT. This is one of the best times all year to stock up on basics like black leggings and workout sneakers! I swear by the Zella high waisted leggings. The rest of these picks are equally snag worthy!
NSale: Sunglasses
Snagging a pair of next season’s designer sunnies on discount? Fuck to the YES. Every couple of years, I’ll add one to my collection from this sale. The Tom Fords are a worthy investment that stays on trend year after year! Peep my top picks below.
There you have it, fam! Everything that’s worth being on your radar from this year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. In closing, think about your cart breakdown. 60-70% should be for essentials you’ll use daily/weekly, and the remainder for new tries. It helps slash the regret in the coming months, especially on clothing. Wait for them to go on sale later in the fall, your wallet will thank you later!
