It’s Public Access Time for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Uncategorized

July 19, 2019

Oh happy day! I know MANY of you have been counting down the days and making your must-shop lists for when this day would arrive and the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is LIVE for public access!!! I got up at the crack of dawn today to track down the best deals + steals that are still in stock and ready to come home with you. But before we dive in, here’s a few things to mention:

  1. If You See It, Grab It. I placed multiple orders online last week so ensure I got everything I wanted. Things sell out quickly so put it in your cart and check out immediately. I definitely think that helped me grab everything I was searching for.
  2. No Restocks. Nordstrom said they weren’t restocking, so if you see something in limited sizes, it’s due to someone purchasing it and then returning it–another reason to snag it swiftly!
  3. Buy Multiple Sizes. If you’re unsure of your size as a lot of items have run large this go-around, buy two sizes and then return the one that doesn’t work… Jeff is notorious for doing this and it does save time and energy!

I for one was thrilled to see so many of my favorites still in stock during this year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.  So I thought it would be fun to highlight my must-haves in one big blog post to help you shop easily, and save time and money to make it worth your while [because let’s face it, you’re busy and you need to get in and get out and get back to the important stuff in life]. I’m sharing more of my dressing room diaries from last week of the items that are still in stock below. But, I’m listing my top 20 in-stock finds for the sale first.  Alright, let’s do this:
