I’m away in Utah moving my son in to college, but I wanted to share some of my own picks from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale which begins for the general public today. This is a once a year event and the best time to get some great pieces to add to the wardrobe. I usually buy a few of my favorite bras and panties, a pair of jeans and any cute fall thing that might catch my eye..
Tops on my list are theses cute Madewell jeans. I have these in black and have lived in them the past two years. This wash and mini-flare of these Cali-Demi Boot Jeans will be cute with ankle boots as well as flats and sandals come late summer. I love the quality of these jeans and how they hold their shape.
I’m also a fan of these cropped black Kut from the Kloth jeans for fall with their raw hem. I know I would wear these a ton with white button ups and big sweaters in cooler months!
This ALLSAINTS drape top has cool details and would be a chic with jeans and cool sandals and work for fall with its pretty russet tone.
I also love ALLSAINTS sweaters and I noticed this cashmere Tara Sweater in many lovely colors. It’s oversized, so I would order a size down. Their sweaters are like butter and last for years. The two I have have been my favorites forever.
I really need no shoes for fall, but I have been missing a black bootie in my wardrobe and the Cole Haan Val Bootie has have cute details and the right heel height. They also come in a pretty rust and off-white.
I also love the Vince Camuto snake print which is a good neutral…
These Soft Brand Slipper Mules would be my daily go-to come fall. I love the ease of slide ons!
A pull on bootie is another thing I know I’d wear a lot and would be super comfy as well as a modern update to my closet. This Blondo Bootie is a good buy, so cute in this color- and a few others. People say this runs narrow on reviews..
This Sam Edelman Trench has lovely details and it’s single breasted – something that’s not always easy to find and a lot more flattering on most people that the double-breasted trench. It reminds me of my Burberry I bought on this same sale many years ago and sadly lost.
If you can splurge for the Burberry they have this Kensington Trench on the sale in a tan or black taffeta which is a nice lightweight coat for all seasons especially good for travel. The Burberry Trench run tight and smalls so you should order up if you haven’t tried one on before.
This Sam Edelman dress is a pretty cute piece for the price..
I also spied this cute pair of leather Adidas. If you don’t yet have a pair of white leather sneakers, these have that tennis look and a reflective heel and logo for a little flair..
Another great buy is this set of Diptyque set of 5 Travel Size Candles. Cute for holiday gifts too!
All the beauty exclusives – many made just for this once a year sale for Nordstrom can be found here.
Hope you all are having a good week. I’ll share about our four day Tahoe trip and all about Utah coming soon!

Rosemary glad you liked the picks here.. I honestly tried to choose a few things that people can actually use during this pandemic you know? Right now we need things for home and comfortable clothes! Drop off was hard once we waved goodbye to Grif. My house feels so quiet and empty now. He’s already off hiking and having adventures.. I hope he wants to come home again! Thank you Rosemary. xo
Kim – I was doing a great job ignoring the Nordstrom sale, but you got me! Our tastes are very similar so several items are now in my cart. Back I’ll go to throw in some make up and underwear … to stock up at better prices. Hope you’re having a great trip with your son. Excited to read all about it and your Tahoe getaway. I hope your family is safe from the fires plaguing our state. What a year. xo
Juliet, So sorry!! I did the same during the presell and then had FOMO!! A few things I thought I would share so I am glad you agreed they were worth putting on here. I agree always good to get a few of those basics while we can get a deal on them. .. So far we are hanging in there with the fires yet cannot go out. Maybe you all are in the same boat? It’s pretty bad air quality here and I feel for those who are evacuated. Such a scary time now. xo
