What Is The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?

The Nordstrom Anniversary sale is the only sale that allows you to shop new arrivals for the upcoming season at a discounted price. The sale is tiered to allow those that spend the most with Nordstrom throughout the year to shop first. This is their way of saying thank you to their valued customers and also making sure that customers don’t flood the site and break it. To see what tier you are click here.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Dates

The preview lookbook will be released June 29th. This is a sneak peek at the items that are going to be a part of the sale. I recommend creating a free account with Nordstrom, so you can save items that you love to your wishlist. This makes the checkout process during the sale quick and easy. This way you can checkout with your must-have items first and then go back and browse the sale for more items. I’ve made the mistake of not doing this in the past and items that were in my cart would sell out while I was browsing.

Your Fall Wardrobe Checklist

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a great time to stock up on essentials for fall! It’s the only time that items are marked down before the season starts. Think boots, jackets, designer handbags, denim and all things fall. My recommendation is to take inventory of you closet. Is it time to replace those old worn out jeans? Maybe you had your eye on a pair of neutral booties last year but never hit that check out button. This is also a great time to clean out your closet and purge! Once you know exactly what you have and what you need, start making your wishlist. I recommend determining your budget and leaving a little wiggle room in case you see something that catches your eye. I’ve included a list of fall essentials that every woman needs in their wardrobe. Use this as a guide to help you map out your game plan!

FALL WARDROBE MUST HAVES

  1. Designer Handbag
  2. Neutral Booties
  3. A Great Pair of Everyday Jeans
  4. Fall Hat
  5. Leather Jacket
  6. Everyday Gold Jewelry
  7. Free People Sweater
  8. Black Leggings
  9. Cozy Cardigan
  10. Fall Dress
  11. Long Sleeve Basic Tee
  12. Nice Coat for Winter
  13. Comfortable Flats or Mules
  14. Designer Sunglasses
  15. Sneakers

I also use the sale as an opportunity to stock up on gifts. One of my favorite things to pick up during the sale are the Barefoot Dreams blankets, my favorite Slip silk pillowcase, beauty bundles and more! I’ll be sharing affordable gifting options throughout. Plus, I’ll cover top picks for men, kids and home finds!

Tips + Tricks For Shopping the Sale

SHOP FAST! If you see something you like, check out as soon as possible! The best part about Nordstrom is their free shipping, so you can make several purchases and not have to worry about shipping costs. So if you are swiping up in Instagram Stories or browsing through the LIKEtoKNOW.it app, make sure you are checking out fast! Items won’t stay in your cart long and you don’t want to miss out on snagging your favorite styles. 

SHOP SMART! There will be so many items on sale and it can get very overwhelming. I suggest going in with a list of items that you know you want (booties, new denim and coats) and purchase those items first. I usually buy new sneakers, workout clothes, a nice fall/winter coat, denim that will last through the season and fall shoes. Remember, everything will be brand new and marked down up to 40% OFF! I will be showcasing the best of the best from the sale. No need to search every page of the Nordstrom website – leave the hard work to me!

YOUR TO-DO LIST:

  1. Take a look at when you can shop and make a note on your calendar
  2. Determine your budget (and stick to it!)
  3. Look at your closet (and your husband’s + kids) and determine what you need and what you plan to purchase
  4. Start saving items to your wishlist on June 29th
  5. Turn on post notifications for Loverly Grey’s Instagram
  6. Follow @LoverlyGrey in the LiketoKnow.it app
  7. Subscribe to my email list

One of my main shopping tips for the sale is to maximize your bonus notes, which is a major perk Nordstrom offers. As a Nordy Club member you earn points for every dollar you spend. The sale is a great time to use your double points day. You want to maximize your points on the day you plan to spend the most so that you can earn notes!
