What I hope to find in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale


Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale is quickly approaching (Early access July 12th-19th; full access July 20th - August 5th!! Mark your Calendars!!). Previous sales have been quite the jaw dropper. From Kendra Scott drop earrings, T3 Blow Dryer, Le Specs sunglasses, and even many Elite high end brands (Burberry trenches, Chloe shoes, Fendi bags, and more). Then of course many well known brands like BP., Leith, TopShop, Madewell, etc that's great for basic daywear.
The sale features new Fall merchandise at amazing prices for a short period of time. AKA: you get to purchase the new trends before it hits the shelves.
Visit the website to get the full calendar, sneak peek on what to expect on the racks, and special "Glam Event" dates that the stores are hosting during this amazing sale!
  - I need to quickly touch base that Early Access on July 12th -19th to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is for Debit/Credit Card members only. This gives Card members the opportunity to shop the sale before the general public. Opening a card isn't hard. You can do it online, over the phone or in-store. There's also other amazing perks with a Nordstrom card. If you're considering a new card I recommend them! 

FAQ: If you're not a card member but visit the store, find something you love, will they hold the item?
NO. The items are first come. If you see something that's at an amazing price the sales associate will mention you can open a Nordstrom card and if accepted on the spot you'll be able to purchase.  

FAQ: Do they restock?
No one is for sure. The sizes sometimes vary to a rack with tons of quantities and then some of the items it will be a very small size run. 

FAQ: Am I able to return these items to store?
Yes, if you purchased something online or in-store and the sizing didn't work out you will be able to return. Keep the receipt so you can get a full refund.

FAQ: I have a card, can I use my triple points towards the purchases I make?
YES! This is one of the best parts about the sale! You can use your triple points day. I'm a few points away from another Nordstrom Note and Level upgrade so I'm definitely taking this opportunity too.

FAQ: Will you be attending any of the Glam Events in store?
At the moment, no. I'm no where near a Nordstrom store. The nearest store for me is 6 hours away. I will be shopping the day the Early Access Sale starts and I will have my 'top picks' post asap! IF something happens and I travel to NC to visit my family I WILL be shopping in store at the Streets at Southpoint Nordstrom. But traveling is still up in the air since it'll be near my wedding date.

FAQ: Where's the catalog to view some of the items?
Here. You can see some of the brands and trends. But remember the catalog is just a sample!

FAQ: Where can I apply for the credit/debit card?
Here. You can apply here and be approved on the spot!

This year will be my first year with the Early Access to the sale. I already have a "shopping list" of items I want to look for.


Wish List:
- Jewelry (statement earrings, a good bracelet, maybe a Kendra Scott necklace).
- Lucky Brand shoes (My Lucky Brand boots are my most favorite).
- Leith dresses.
- Good jeans for fall, white and a black pair.
- Longchamp handbag.
- Beauty brands like Charlotte Tilbury, Mario Badescu, Hourglass (a girl can dream), La Mer, and Nars.
- Hair styling tools. In need of a blow dryer and curling iron.
- Home decor. Nothing in particular. I would like to find some picture frames for my wedding photos.



Before the sale many people try to make a game plan. Some wait to try and be the first one online/in the store and some visit the store days ahead to try on clothes to get an idea of what sizes to grab up (especially if you online shop). For me, I'm NO WHERE near a Nordstrom store. I do all my purchases online so I'm shopping brands I'm accustomed to. A lot write out a budget on how much they plan to spend and a little wish list (like mine above!).


My question to everyone: Are you shopping the sale? Anything in particular you hope to find? How many boxes do you plan to hide from your husband?


Have a sunny day!
