Happy Monday, friends! The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is quickly approaching (early access starts this Thursday, 7/12), so here's all you need to know about the biggest sale of the year.
What is it?
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the best sale of the year. Unlike other sales, this sale includes all new arrivals, instead of discounts on last season's trends. You'll see top brands like Stuart Weitzman, Tory Burch, Burberry, Movado, Rag & Bone, Nike, Diptyque, Clarisonic, Barefoot Dreams, and so many more, at discounts you won't find anywhere else. Added bonus, there's no promo code needed - all prices are as marked.
Key Dates
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale early access is July 12-19. Early access is reserved for Nordstrom Card holders, only. Trust me, it is worth signing up for this credit card or retail/store card (that's what I have), as things sell out quick. You can still sign up here, to get early access. The sale will open to the public July 20th, and run through August 5th. On August 6th, all the prices will go up, so be sure to plan accordingly.
Who's it for?
Everyone! There are tons of sale items for women, men, children, home and of course, beauty! Shop the Women's catalog here, and shop the Men's catalog here, so you can create your shopping list ahead of time. Tip: be sure to check out the catalog ASAP and add any items you're eyeing into your cart now. The sale can be shopped online, or in-store. I highly suggest shopping online, as not all stores will carry every item, and they may sell out more quickly. However, if you do choose to go that route, I suggest securing the item online ahead of time, before you head to the store, or getting in touch with your Nordstrom Stylist (if you have one).
Plan Ahead
As I just mentioned, the catalogs are available online, so definitely flip threw it now. The catalog is only a glimpse into all the marvelous deals this sale has to offer. Next, I suggest creating a strategy to help you figure out what you need, and making a budget. It's always tricky when things go on sale, and it is easy to click 'Purchase' and then having buyers remorse in the future. Sticking to your 'must have's' will help you avoid this. If you still get trigger happy, remember, Nordstrom offers free shipping and free returns, always!
Have any other questions about the sale? Let me know! Be sure to also stay tuned for my list of must-have items from the best sale of the year. Saving is always in style! Below is just a glimpse of some the things I purchased during last year's #nsale.
Leith Dress (Runs small, so size up - I am wearing a S)
This is hands down my favorite/must-have purchase from the sale. The quality is great and the price is awesome ($65). Jacket also comes in
suede.
Hahaha how cute is Safari on the left?!
I purchased these during the sale last year, and they are back again by popular demand. They are still a bit on the pricey side, but they are definitely worth the splurge, especially since they never go on sale any other time.
Comes in three colors and is under $50.
So fun, and a bit over the top, but only $60!
My go-to tennis shoe, so I make sure to always snag them during the sale (these are my sixth pair).
Love the ruffled neckline - so on trend, and perfect dressed up or down!
I swear by these jeans - definitely worth the investment, and they don't go on sale any other time!
