This year instead of publishing my #NSALE shopping guides throughout the entirety of the sale, I’m going to publish them all this week so that you can reference back to them when you’re ready to shop. I’ll create a tab above as well so that you can reference them throughout the month and of course you can always find them on my LTK shop, too!
You can find the full Nordstrom Anniversary Sale here, open to the public July 28th. Find all my guides here.

I’m posting this one first because it is a doozie. First glance at the sale, I was underwhelmed which made me into some kind of super shopper because I love a good challenge. Before I knew it I had over 200 items saved in my wish list. LOL forever. Obviously this list can not come home with me, but it can live in my imagination where I’m 6 foot tall and my hair grows on demand. Plus I really do think there are some great finds in this list. I’ll be honest, this year I was underwhelmed by shoes, handbags, denim but really delighted to see that outerwear, activewear and dresses were supercharged this year. As you’ll see, supercharged is maybe a theme of my wishlist. 🥴
So this here is my ‘if I had enough money to waste it on a trip to space’ wish list!
All Saints Tee / Body Con Dress / Wide Brim Hat / Floral Blouse / Free People Jacket / Levi’s Crop
All Saints Leather Jacket / Vince Heels / All Saints Bag / All Saints Sweater / Twill Shirt Jacket
Vince Camuto Woven Slides / Padded Shoulder Dress / Marc Fisher Booties / Zella Sports Bra / Zella Tank / Zella Shorts
Leah Wool Coat / Steve Madden Flats / FP Cowl Neck Sweater / Silk Tank Dress / Get Moving Skort / Nikes
Levi’s Distressed / FP Dress / Bodysuit Tee / Alo Top / Hydroflask Bottle / Zella Sports Bra / Zella Leggings

The Sell Outs
I wanted to call out a few things that I think have BIG sold out energy.
This hat for example will not make it past this week, if I was a betting woman. I get it — it’s a cute hat, a lovely year round color and UNDER $30!
Anything Steve Madden or Marc Fisher tends to sell out pretty quickly. These Chain Pointed Toe Mules will definitely sell out but the good news is there are lots of colors in them! I prefer a neutral, but there are prints as well. I love the big chain on it and it will work really well into spring. Steve Madden runs true to size. (I’ll update you on these when I try them on.)
These Marc Fisher booties are a staple for fall. I wore the absolute mess out of mine last year. If you’re looking for a classic black bootie, she’s your girl. Marc Fisher fits true to size.
This Zella Restore set (bra here, leggings here) is a repeat from last year but I am not mad about it. It’s SO SO SO soft and it holds up well. I returned the grey color last year and kept the charcoal but I’m going back for the grey this year. True to size but a relaxed fit. I’m a medium in the top and going to try a small in the pants this year.
This open back body con dress and this padded shoulder dress are under $50 which makes them in the red zone for selling out quickly. Neither one were in my local store but there in my cart, so hopefully I can snag one to give you sizing details soon!
(I will say I do think — and this is total speculation — that Nordstrom is saving a lot of styles for online only this year because my local store didn’t have the near amount they usually do in store. Again, *absolute total speculation* but if this is the case, then it gives you guys more of a chance to grab the pieces!)
Nikes always have big sell out energy and so do Adidas, in fact I’d say especially Adidas. Especially these Swift Run Sneakers. So if you like any of these sneakers below, try to grab them quickly. Sizes go fast.
Lastly, I don’t think these have HUGE sell out energy but I do think that if you like them you should grab them. It’s the return of the nude Vince heel and I for one am loving this year’s version. I am a 10 — my normal size — in Vince and if these are like past Vince heels, they are a great investment! Comfortable, go with everything. Find them here.
