Nordstrom Anniversary Sale….first lap

Start your engines, it’s on!

Those of you who have shopped this sale before might remember that Nordstrom cardholders get early access beginning today, and access for everyone else starts July 17. (Those who are not cardholders will still be able to view sale items via the widget below, just will not be able to add to your cart until the 17th from what I understand.) It’s been my experience from past years that popular items may sell out fast so early access really does make a difference. But if something you had your eye on is sold out, do keep checking back as sometimes items are returned or restocked and may become available again.

For sales of this magnitude, my general approach is to first search by brands that I like and have had good luck with. So for this first pass I’ve looked first at sale items from…

…as well as some targeted fashion, beauty, travel and household items.

Here are the first sale items that first caught my eye (and some may have made their way into my shopping cart 😉 ). I’ll continue to dig deeper into the sale over the next few days, and have also updated my SHOP page to include sale picks.

  1. I had a chance to get to the sale today. I wasn’t looking for anything (which seems to bring the best luck). It was fun to see some of these items in person. The pointed toe croc flats are the pointiest – arrow pointy! Nicely made, good price, just not enough cushion for me. I was interested in the Clarins serum and ended up getting samples to try before making the investment (I use several Clarins products and I love them). That MK snake print bag is gorgeous! In the tented areas I picked up a necklace at a nice discount and a silk and cashmere scarf for a Christmas gift. On the regular sale racks I found a couple of tops, one linen, both for under $50 total. (score!) Thanks for the review, Susan. It’s always a helpful head start. Can’t wait to see what you picked up!

  2. You have gret taste in shoes, if I do say so myself. I’ve become a total devotee of Paul Green,and have to fight the urge to buy all of them when I see them at Nordstrom Rack. And I just bought my first pair of Aquatalias.

  3. Many thanks for encouraging us to continue to check back if an item we like is unavailable. For a couple of days I tracked the size of NYDJ leggings I wanted, and soon, there they were, just one pair. I grabbed them and feel as though I won a prize!
