Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Picks

• 1.State Ruched Sleeve Plaid Blazer

  

  I love a good structured blazer or coat, especially with jeans and some kickass boots. This one hit all the sweet spots. Good structure, flattering, and you can dress up for work or dress down for a perfect Fall outing with friends. TTS. This Kenneth Cole coat is beautiful too and very similar, just pricier and a bit heavier (more of a coat instead of a blazer).

• Madewell Ryder Stripe Cardigan

  

  For me, the Nordstrom sale is largely about cardigans, because that’s what I live in most of the year. This cardi is almost identical to the Kent one that I own in other colors. I love this color block version. While I usually buy a Large in cardigans, I bought this one in Medium. My rec would be to go down a size.

• Chelsea28 Cardigan

  

  I loved this one for how lightweight it was (so good for us Texans), and for the big buttons. Oddly enough, I sized waaaayyy down. This is an XS/Small and it still hung loose & comfy. Loved the neutral color too, also available in Black. Size down at least a size, maybe two. A steal for $39.

  SHOP IT

• Something Navy Leopard V-Neck Cardigan

  

  This is my favorite cardigan of the sale. I adore the look and it’s super cozy. I also sized down and bought a medium. It was perfect. This one only had a couple sizes left, it had mostly sold out. I predict this one will be one of the super hot items, so don’t hesitate.

• BP Long Leopard Jacquard Cardigan

  

  I love the leopard pattern, super soft feel, and the long line look of the sweater. This is one of those sweaters I’m seeing everywhere on Instagram already. TTS but would mention that this may not be a good option for those on the short side. The cardi is pretty long. There is also this option (more lightweight), which I ended up ordering.

• J.Crew Leopard Bomber Sweater

  

  Obviously leopard is everywhere in this Sale, but I thought this was a great silhouette to try. I ordered my size and cannot wait to get this. It’s a great style up/down kind of piece.

  SHOP IT

• BP Raw Edge Long Sleeve Pocket Tee

  

  These are my favorite tees everrrr. I own (not exxagerating) ten of these (mostly short sleeve, mostly black) because I wear them like a uniform. I love them oversized and just so bummed they didn’t have them in short sleeve this year. So obviously I picked up a l/s black and will probably order a couple more before the sale is over! TTS or size up for an oversized look that’s easy to french tuck.

  SHOP IT

• Caslon Rounded Neck Tee

  

  Along with the Raw Edge BP tee mentioned above, this is another fave. I stocked up with a couple of these. TTS.

• Other Clothes Items

  • Barefoot Dreams Cardigans: Last year I bought two and they are the MOST COMFORTABLE cardigans I own. If you work from home or you love to wear cozy cardis, these are an absolute must and so worth the price.
  • Something Navy Puff Sleeve Tee: Found this online and hoping to order. I feel like I would wear this a lot!
  • Something Navy Leopard Crew Neck: If you are more of a pullover sweater girl, this is the version of the cardigan featured up top. I love it!
  • Leopard Midi Dress (Plus size): I love this dress! It looks so flattering too… pair with a long cardi or jean jacket.

• Treasure & Bond Fern Snakeskin Boots

  

  I usually stock up on boots during the Sale, but this year I didn’t think I would haul any because I have so many still in rotation. But then I saw these beauties! Love the lower heel and the snakeskin. To me, this is a really nice way to add some sophistication and elegance to an outfit. TTS.

  SHOP IT

• Halogen Ivie Sneakers

  

  I love these!!! The look! The feel! So comfy! Goes with anything as it’s practically a neutral. TTS.

  SHOP IT

• Cole Haan GrandPro Sneakers

  

  The blush and rose gold combo is a beauty in these sneakers. Again, the light color makes it a neutral that’s super versatile to wear. TTS.

  SHOP IT

• Steve Madden Studded Feather Loafer

  

  My favorite shoe pick of the Sale. These Steve Madden flats are so comfy and so darn stylish. The studs add an extra level of sophistication to these weekend or work-wear flats. I could really go for every color they have.

  SHOP IT

• Other Shoes

  • Cole Haan Sneaker Slip Ons: Loved the mixed texture of these super functional & stylish sneaks. And they’re Cole Haan, so you know they’ll be super comfy.
  • 1.State Saffy Block Heel: These are great for work and not super high. Basic chic.

• Selena Clutches

  

  I love and use clutches often. I use them most when I go out with friends to happy hour, or to dinner. It’s an extra level of chic and these two are beauties. They also have a chain you can use if you want to wear as a crossbody.

  Tory Burch fans will be happy with this year’s selection of both bags & shoes. These are some of the bags up for grabs. I particularly love the crossbody because it’s so functional

• Clare V Snakeskin Embossed Crossbody 

  

  One of the hot items of the Sale. A store associate said they sold out of it in 40 minutes on the first day of pre-shop. I had to order mine, but so excited that it’s on its way. Love the snake skin and the thick strap. No doubt this will sell out online too.
