The NSale aka Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is ALMOST HERE! If you don’t know what the NSale is, it’s basically this HUGE sale Nordstrom hosts every summer, usually in July. This year it got pushed back to August because of Covid but Nordstrom opened up a preview to the public for the first time!

You can now preview the sale, which includes the ability to view all the items included in the sale as well as add them to a wishlist (it is free to make an account!) The sale opens up in waves, depending on what tier your membership is. The sale opens up to the top tier on August 4th and the public (everyone who doesn’t have an account) on August 19th.

If you have a Nordstrom account and/or card but don’t know what level you are, you can log into your account and it will tell you (I am an Influencer and can shop August 10th!)

Here are my top choices as well as the items I have already and love. I will be updating this post as the sale goes on!

BEAUTY

Beauty – Have & Love

• 1 Beauty Blender Electric Feels Set – I use the Beautyblender to apply my foundation and concealer, nothing compares!
• 2 Fresh Sugar Lip Balm Set – I keep this at my desk and am always reaching for it to keep my lips hydrated.
• 5 Becca hydra-mist set and refresh powder – I use this to set my concealer and foundation so it stays all day and doesn’t get oily.
• 6 Moroccan Oil Hoe and Away Set – I am obsessed with my moroccan Oil to keep my ends healthy and my hair soft.

Beauty – In My Cart

• 3 Luxie Rose Gold Eye Brush Set – I have been looking for mew eyeshadow brushes and one to contour my nose and this set has some great options
• 4 Slip Silk Scrunchie Set – these have been on my wishlist for sooo long!

HOME

Home – Have & Love

• 1 Swell Bottle – I bought my smell bottle from a pervious Nsale too. It keeps my drinks cold and doesn’t
• 2 Barefoot Dreams Throw Blanket – I have the smaller version in the color stone and it is the softest thing I have ever touched, and still looks brand new after a year.
• 3 Corkcicle Stainless Steel Tumblr – I purchased my corkcicle cup in pink from the Sale a few years back. It keeps my tea hot for hours!
• 4 Voluspa Mini Candle – this smells amazing and the scent lingers throughout our whole apartment.

Home – In My Cart

• 5 Barefoot Dreams In the Wild Throw Blanket – this is the Holy Grail of Barefoot Dreams!

CLOTHING & ACCESSORIES

Clothing & Accessories – Have & Love

• 1 The North Face Hooded Parka – the warmest coat EVER and also looks super cute on!
• 2 Tory Burch Logo Stud Earrings – these are my favorite everyday earrings!
• 3 Patagonia Quarter Zip – I have this in tan and wear it all the time in the fall and winter.
• 4 Free People Busted Knee Skinny Jeans – One of my favorite pairs of jeans, and they must b everyone else’s too because they’re always sold out!
• 5 Treasure and Bond Curved Hemmed Tee – I bought this in gray last year during the NSale. It is the softest top ever!
• 6 Spanx Leggings – these are such a staple piece in my closet from the fall to spring and if there is one item I would recommend getting from the sale this is IT!

Clothing – In My Cart

• 1 Barefoot Dreams Circle Cardigan – This has been in my cart forever. Imagine the softer blanket made into a cardigan!
• 2 Free People Catch Me if You Can Top – I’m glad I looked over the NSale clothing preview again because I missed this top the first time. I feel like this will be a hidden gem and I really hope I can get my hands on it!
• 3 & 4 Barefoot Dreams Leopard Cardigan – Leopard cardis are my fave and I’ve always wanted a Barefoot Dreams one!
• 5 Patagonia Fleece Pullover – I love the white and this looks so soft.
• 6 Chelsea28 Cowlneck Sweater – I love this brand and this sweater looks super cute.

Shoes – In My Cart

• 1 Vince Camuto Derika Leather Boot – I don’t have any boots like these and they would go with so much!
• 2 Steve Madden Kayla Pointed Toe Bootie – These are similar to the white Vince camuto booties if they sell out.
• 3 Steve Madden Natalie Bootie – another back up pair!
• 4 Ugg Flufette Slipper – Love the hot pink!
• 5-7 Marc Fischer Pointed Toe Bootie – I tried the black ones on last year and loved them but didn’t want to spend $200.

MENS

• 1 Patagonia Better Sweater (zip up) – similar to the quarter zip!
• 2 Nike Crew Socks – Ryan could always use more of these!
• 3 Patagonia Puff Vest – comes in multiple colors and would match so everything.
• 4 the North Face rain jacket – Ryan has a similar one and loves it!
• 5 Patagoinia Better Sweater quarter zip – I bought Ryan the navy one last year and he loves it!
• 6 Nike joggers – Ryan is always looking for more joggers.

I have been shopping the NSale for years way before I started before blogging. I am obsessed with Nordstrom and sales so this is one of my favorite times to shop! What I also really like about Nordstrom is their return policy – things sell out SO fast so if you’re unsure about sizing I would order multiple and return the one that doesn’t work out (I will probably be doing this with some boots).

I also wanted to clarify, I will not be buying everything I listed on “in my cart” – I added a bunch of similar items because I am anticipating some will sell out and wanted to have several options.

Let me know if you have any questions!
