WHEWWWW, it’s sale season, friends! Specifically, Amazon Prime Day and the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!
Today I want to talk all about both of them, including: some of my favorite Amazon finds to keep tabs on, what the heck the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (aka NSale) is and why you should shop it, and a few of my highlights from the NSale preview you’ll wanna add to your Nordstrom Wishlist! (Spoiler: I haven’t been this excited about this sale in a few years!!)
I’ll start with Amazon Prime Day since that will be more straightforward. Then I’ll tell you about the goodness of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!
My Favorite Amazon Prime Day Style Highlights
Amazon Prime Day is a four day sale of limited-time deals on everything from clothes to home to travel essentials and more for Amazon’s Prime members. It’s basically like Black Friday in July, and only for Prime members.
This year, Prime Day starts on July 8th and goes until July 11th. (This is the first time it’s been 4 days long!)
Now, to be honest, it’s easy for me to get overwhelmed by Prime Day. So I limit my focus to things I’ve already been eyeing or items that people I trust recommend. If you feel similarly, let me help by pointing you to some of my favorite Amazon style highlights that you should totally scope out during Prime Day!
I’ll share a full post with pics and reviews on Tuesday, July 8th when Prime Day actually begins. Today I’m just sharing a few of my favorites lately so you can get a head start on what to keep an eye on.

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale + Why It’s a Big Deal
This is a BIG ONE, so buckle up! I cover this sale every year, and so many of you LOVE it!
I’ve been scoping out the Nordstom Anniversary Sale Preview, and I’m getting really excited (more on that later). But first, in case you’re wondering, “What is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?” or “Why should I even care about it?” allow me to tell you!
What is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale All About?
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a huge sale from July to August, during which you can get BRAND NEW items for the UPCOMING season on major SALE!
That means it’s not the leftovers from the end of the summer. Rather, it’s brand new items BEFORE the FALL season starts. While I’ve gotten a few warm weather items during the sale, the majority of items are for fall, like jeans, cardigans, sneakers, boots, jackets, activewear, and more.
Many of my favorite wardrobe staples go on sale during this time, which is why I highly encourage you to shop it! These are the pieces that I consistently recommend to you for quality, style, and comfort, and you can get them at a major discount during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!
Why You Should Shop the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
I REALLY want you to have an ridiculously comfortable wardrobe full of good pieces that make you look instantly stylish without having to try too hard. Clothes from Nordstrom achieve all of this!
My most comfortable and quality clothes come from Nordstrom, and if you want to transform your wardrobe into an ultra-comfortable, effortlessly stylish one, The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the best time to do it and save.
Some of the items you ask me about the most throughout the whole year (and years after!!) are from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
Sometimes they never get restocked.
And while some do get restocked (yay), they’re no longer on major sale! (Boo!)
I’m talking about: my favorite brand of stretchy jeans with stretchy waistbands (Wit & Wisdom), the buttery soft wide leg jeans by KUT From the Kloth, my go-to lifestyle sneakers for the last couple of years, favorite sweaters, and more.
When Is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is open to different groups of people at different times, and Nordstrom cardmembers get to shop earlier than everyone else.
What’s important is that a lot of items sell out by the time non-cardholders get to shop. Nordstrom does this to incentivize people to get a Nordstrom card. So if you want the good stuff, sign up for one to shop early! (More on that in a bit.)
Here’s a summary of when different groups get access:
About the Nordstrom Card + Get a $40 Nordstrom Note
Now, about the Nordstrom card. I typically avoid credit cards for stores, but Nordstrom is one of my exceptions. I got a Nordstrom card years ago just to shop the NSale early, and it’s been totally worth it.
There are other great perks to being a Nordstrom cardholder besides shopping the NSale early, such as earning points towards Nordstrom Notes with purchases, getting reimbursed in Nordstrom Notes when you get your clothes tailored at Nordstrom(!), and an extra 5% off at Nordstrom Rack! You can read all about the perks HERE!
If you sign up for a Nordstrom card right now, you can get a $40 Nordstrom Note towards future purchases!

For today, I’ll just share 15 of my favorites to show you what you can look forward to! If you’re interested in any of them, click on the product, then click “Add to Wishlist” so you can keep track of it when the sale is actually live.
How Can I Shop This Sale the Smart Way?
Make a list. The NSale can be overwhelming, so get focused with a game plan and a list. It’ll help you make better purchasing decisions! What holes do you need to fill in your closet? Personally, I’d focus on staples, like jeans, cardigans, blazers, pants for work, jackets, and fall shoes. This sale is GREAT for those!
Shop Early Access by signing up for a Nordstrom card. The sale opens earlier to everyone who has a Nordstrom card. Items and sizes can sell out FAST, and sometimes they do NOT restock during the sale. Some items are exclusive to the sale only and are not available after the sale. A ton of people get frustrated that things sell out, but that is the nature of this sale. Shopping early is totally worth it. Find out more info, like how you can get a $40 bonus note, and sign up for one HERE!
Shop online. It can be difficult to shop in store, and there is ALWAYS more availability online, so shopping online is awesome. Plus, your size may not be available in store. Shipping and return shipping is always free, so ordering online from the comfort of your home in your pajamas is the WAY TO GO! Or, order online and use Nordstrom’s curbside pickup so you can order online but not have to wait for it to ship!
Add items to your Nordstrom Wish List starting NOW. When you add items to your Nordstrom Wishlist, once the sale starts, you can just click a button to add the items all to your cart and check out immediately. That way, you can order the items faster and reduce the risk of them selling out.
Buy multiple sizes!!!! I do this with most things I order all the time to make sure I get my sizing correct. It’s especially important during the NSale. Items run out fast, and your size might not be available by the time you want to exchange. Buy two sizes and send back — for free —the size that doesn’t work. (Because free shipping and free return shipping, remember?) BUY MULTIPLE SIZES. TRUST ME.
All right, head to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Preview and start creating your wish list!
