It’s our favorite shopping time of the year – the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! The NSale isn’t like other sales, it’s not the left over, picked over, no-one-wants-it-stuff that they are clearing out for next season. It’s NEW fall and winter stuff that is magically marked down and you can update your closet at a significant discount. The NSale is an opportunity to save big on brand-new arrivals and re stock your favorite must-haves.
UPDATED! We’re adding all our lists and shopping ideas at the end of this post so you have all the NSale info in one place.
WHEN IS THE SALE?
The online preview begins June 29 for everyone, regardless of your cardholder status.
Shopping begins as early as July 6 for Icons, July 7 for Ambassadors, and July 9 for Influencers. The sale is open to everyone for shopping beginning July 15. You can find your status by logging into your account on the Nordstrom site.
Pro tip: Shopping starts at 12:01 EST on the day you’re eligible – so set your alarm or stay up late (whichever way you roll).
Follow us on Facebook and Instagram. During the sale, we’ll be sharing updates, tips, restocks and sale alerts.
WHAT’S INCLUDED IN THE SALE?
This is the time to stock up on jeans, sweaters, socks, underwear or your favorite Zella leggings. Grab a new pair of boots and leather jacket (both are always big NSale items!). Or get a new designer piece for a fraction of the price. The sale includes clothing for the whole family, as well as home decor and beauty products. We always stock up on their quick dry towels and candles.
Nordstrom is offering 100 new brands this year, including Open Edit, Farm Rio, Proenza Schouler and more!
WHAT’S THE BEST WAY TO GET STARTED?
You know all the items roped off and covered in the Nordstrom stores? They’re all in the online preview! During the preview time (starting June 29), browse online and save all the items that interest you in a Nordstrom Wish List. Once the sale begins, you can easily access your wish list, add items right into your cart and check out quickly, while supplies last.
As you build your wish list, take an inventory of what you have or need. Are there regular items you use that you can stock up on? Does your favorite black cashmere sweater have moth holes? Are your sneakers worn too thin? Been dreaming of a leather jacket to update your fall/winter wardrobe? Make a list so you’re less likely to be sucked into buying things you don’t need.
Pro tips: 1) *New this year* – Keep items in your wish list if they are no longer available, because returns happen and you may score that amazing designer sweater later in the sale. 2) You can return items you purchased (in store or online) at the Nordstrom Rack.
DO I NEED A NORDSTROM CREDIT CARD?
Nope. But if you apply for one now, you’ll get earlier access to the sale. Apply no later than July 6 for early access.
WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND I PURCHASE?
Everything! Just kidding…maybe.
On Friday, we’ll have some of our top picks in the Walk and Talk. We’ll link to the items we love the most and hope to purchase for ourselves. Check back then for more details.
The NSale is a great time to buy gifts – keep that in mind as you are shopping.
Remember you have free returns.
We’ll also be sharing more details, great buys and our favorites on social media, so be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram.

10 UNDER $100
- I somehow overlooked this faux suede jacket online. When I saw it in the store I immediately bought the burgundy one for my daughter who started her first job – perfect for her business casual office. She loves that it isn’t too heavy – looks great with the jeans linked below. (I copied and have the black one on order.)
- These Wit & Wisdom Ab-solution itty bitty boot cut jeans are slimming and give you legs for miles! My daughter snagged a pair of these for work, and I copied her again and ordered some for myself.
- There are so many great candle sets in the sale, including this set of four tins – perfectly thoughtful gift, or break the set apart for four smaller gifts.
- These Barefoot Dreams blankets are sooooo cozy! Grab one for everyone on your holiday gift list!
- This initial pendant is the perfect length – and another great gift idea!
- This collection of Le Labo perfumes is a great way to try a new fragrance without committing to a huge bottle. The famous Santal 33 is included in the trio.
- Nothing is as luxurious as a cashmere sweater. This 100% cashmere crew neck sweater in dusty pink (or 7 other colors!) for under $100 is a must have. Your fall wardrobe will thank you.
- On Cloud Sneakers are my go to and the slip on style is the best. Just bought my third pair.
- This long line vest caught my eye when Christa and I went to Nordstrom. I have a similar one in camel from last year, now I think I need to add one in black! Perfect layering piece. I can see myself wearing it for travel, over my workout clothes or with jeans and sweater.
- You know what you need for your new bootcut jeans? Boots! These are so perfect you might need them in brown AND black.
