Happy Monday! Or should I say, “Happy Nordstrom Sale Public Access Day”! If you’ve been shopping the sale, you know it has been crazy this year! There have been so many great deals and so many items have sold out!
We’ve been shopping the sale for YEARS, so we know a thing or two about how Nordstrom typically maneuvers the high traffic. Now that EVERYONE can shop, here are our Nordstrom sale top tips for the rest of the sale and what we think you should have in your cart.
- Think Ahead For Fall/Winter
It is HOT outside, but fall is right around the corner! One tip about this sale is to always shop for fall/winter instead of summer. The Nordstrom Sale is super unique in that they are not selling last season’s products, they are selling NEXT season’s products! You can find great deals on pieces that just came out!
Here are some fall/winter basics you should snag during the sale:
Fall/Winter Basics
One of our top sellers and favorites of the sale is this Free People sweater! It comes in several colors and is the perfect piece you can throw on with a pair of jeans and go. Speaking of jeans, these black wide leg jeans from Good American are super cute and are almost fully stocked right now! If you’re looking for black jeans during the sale, these may be the ones. We paired this outfit with a black Kate Spade bag (over $100 off) and these black mules which are a best seller in the tan color right now!
- Don’t Forget Shoes
Another tip is don’t forget to shop for shoes during the sale! While fashion trends are often fleeting, shoes hang around for quite a bit longer and the pieces can be worn more frequently. We’re all about the CPW (Cost Per Wear)!
We’ve been seeing sneakers, boots, and flats as top selling shoe styles this year. Here are some shoes we think you should snag during the sale:
Shoes On Sale
Metallic flats are one of the biggest trends right now! These are under $100 and are sure to go quickly! We’re also loving these booties for fall. The black ones are by Blondo and are a great budget option at $99.99. The tan booties are by Veronica Beard and are a bit on the pricier side, but Veronica Beard is not typically on this much of a sale! These black heeled sandals by Schutz are super cute and we’re loving these sneakers by rag & bone for a more casual look.
- Start Working On Holiday Gifts
With the holiday season approaching, we use this sale to stock up for friends and family! You can never go wrong with giving the gift of a simple cozy piece, beauty products, or slippers.
Here are some holiday gifts you should snag during the sale:
Best Gifts
If you or someone you’re shopping for has Uggs on their holiday wishlist, now is your time! We’re always seeing Uggs sell out for full price during the winter and these are a great deal.
A cozy set is always a good idea for a gift. This cute blue sweater from BP is great for any season and these comfy pants from Zella have great reviews!
Don’t forget, this sale is also a great time to purchase beauty products! This Drybar blow dryer is super popular and this CEO Serum for Sunday Riley is in a Nordstrom Exclusive value size!
- Keep Your Eyes Peeled For Restocks
If you’re seeing several items in your wishlist sold out, keep your eyes peeled for a quick restock. Not all brands will restock, but when they do, be sure to purchase quickly!
We hope these Nordstrom sale top tips are helpful! Let us know what you’re loving in the Nordstrom Sale in the comments and stay tuned as we cover more of the sale now through August 4!
Xoxo, Julie & Krista
