It’s the most wonderful time of the year … well, for some people at least. Anybody else ridiculously excited about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?
I am! I am!
I have a Nordstrom debit card that links to my checking account, so I was able to access the sale a week ago. I might have spent hours scouring the website to find a few (cough, cough, a few too many) things I couldn’t live without at such great prices. A few of my friends mentioned that they were going to swing by the store and check out everything. The stores don’t have everything, so if you do swing by and can’t find anything you can’t live without out be sure and check online.
In today’s post, I’m going to include some of my favorites from the sale. If you click on a link and they’re out of stock, check back later because I’ve noticed that many items show up as out of stock one day but come back the next. Don’t give up hope. 🙂
What is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a limited sale, offering brand-new fall styles at seriously discounted prices, from top brands for women, men, kids and home. It truly is unlike other sales in that these are mostly brand new styles that are put on sale. They aren’t last season’s styles – it’s all new stuff!
Four Points Mom Shops the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
Before I tell you all about my purchases and really-wish-I-could-purchase-stuff, I want to again reiterate that this is a very unusual splurge for me. I budget and plan for this sale because I know that I can take advantage of one-time discounts on necessary and annual purchases (like my kids’ shoes for the upcoming school year, holiday gifts for friends and family, bras, etc … ). And of course I do treat myself to some fun stuff too! I don’t know why I feel the need to explain myself, but I it’s probably because I’m embarrassed at my excessiveness. There. It’s out in the open. LOL.
So let’s get to it …
Shoes
Gentle Souls Colleen Espadrille Wedge
Sale Price: $84.90
After Sale: $129.95
I had to throw out a pair of my wedges last month because I literally wore them to the bone. So, I was on the prowl for some cute sandals and/or wedges. These are so cute and I cannot wait to try them on.
Blondo Eliza Waterproof Bootie
Sale Price: $99.90
After Sale: $149.95
I also love these booties. You might remember last year that I bought these same booties in white.
I didn’t know if they would hold up well, but they did! I love the size of the heel and they fit true to size. Plus, they’re comfy. Yay!
Sale Price: $59.90
After Sale: $99.95
Okay, I have officially become an old lady because I’m telling you about my new Dr. Scholl’s shoes. LOL. I love the look of these, but I am afraid that they might be a little too narrow for my wide feet. Yes, I’m all about coming across super sexy in this post. Ha. They are SOOOO cute, though, and I’m going to hope they work out.
Sale Price: $71.90
After Sale: $109.95
Okay, I LOVE grabbing the deals on Uggs for Parker. She wears these all year long. Seriously, I have to beg her not to wear her old pair even through the summer. My aunt spoiled her this year and grabbed these during the sale. Parker will be so excited!
Jewelry
Kendra Scott Emmie Drop Earrings
Sale Price: $33.90
After Sale: $68.00
I’ve been wearing these all weekend and I love them! I love the versatility of the ivory/ gold mix. Grab them before they’re gone. You can also get them in black and gold or rhodium/ abalone shell.
Kendra Scott Lilith Adjustable Pendant Necklace
Sale Price: $49.90
After Sale: $78.00
And the matching necklace – so pretty!
Kendra Scott Debra Jewel Necklace
Sale Price: $49.90
After Sale: $75.00
I actually had this necklace and it was one of my all-time favorites. I wore it all the time. Then, this past December I left it in my room when we checked out of our hotel in Mexico. Cue the tears here. 😉 Anyways, I’ve been looking for something similar for months and then just noticed this is in the Anniversary Sale. You guys, I love it so much that I bought it again!
Kendra Scott Maize Drop Earrings
Sale Price: $49.90
After Sale: $75.00
I’m obviously really loving Kendra Scott right now. Aren’t these so pretty though?
Clothing
After Sale: $25.00
I’ve bought several of these shirts over the past few years and this year I’m adding a couple colors. They fit me nicely – they’re loose but don’t make me look too frumpy. You can check out all the colors here.
Wit + Wisdom Ab-Solution Itty Bitty Bootcut Jeans
After Sale: $68.00
Okay, I’m going to try out these Wit + Wisdom bootcut jeans and see if I’m feeling them. They haven’t arrived in the mail yet and I’m not quite sure if I’m cool enough to do a bootcut (hello late 90s), but they are a great price and I’m hoping they work out!
Sale Price: $38.90
After Sale: $50.00
This sweater looks so comfy! I haven’t tried it on yet, but I think I’ll be getting lots of wear out of it this winter. Bring on cold weather … this summer is way too hot for me right now.
Sale Price: $38.90
After Sale: $59.00
I haven’t found a pair of jogger pants that fit me nice, so I’m hoping these do. Caslon is my jam, so I’m hoping these Caslon pants work out well. Hello carpool duty.
Zella Studio Lite High Waist Crop Pants
Sale Price: $35.90
After Sale: $55.00
Yeah, I didn’t need these. However, I love Zella workout pants and couldn’t resist myself.
Natori Conform Underwire Full Fit Contour Bra
Sale Price: $46.90
After Sale: $70.00
I’m back with ANOTHER Natori bra purchase. I’ve bought one every year during the Anniversary Sale because they are incredible bras. They’ll fit you for your perfect size at Nordstrom and it changed my life. When I had a fitting I was WAY off because apparently my body has changed a bit since birthing two children. Who knew? 😉
Gibson Cozy Twist Front Pullover
Sale Price: $31.90
After Sale: $49.00
I love how twist-fronts can add just enough to a simple tee.
Okay, that’s all for now. Share what you’ve found in the comments below. I’d love to know if I missed something!
