It’s that time of year again!! The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is here which is always one of my favorite sales to shop!

I’ve scored so many great items during these sales, it’s hard NOT to buy anything. You know what I mean?

The best part about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is that everything is brand-stankin NEW. So the way I like to shop this sale is that I pick pieces and brands that I want to invest in like a Burberry coat or a Kate Spade dress. Honestly, when you can save $300-$400 dollars on a classic Burberry puffer coat, it’s hard to say no. Am I right?

I also use this time to stock up on a few new pair of jeans (Paige or AG), shoes (particularly Sam Edelman, Stuart Weitzman or Rag & Bone), and dresses (like DVF, Kate Spade or Equipment). My thinking is that you want to invest in pieces you know you will wear on the reg.

So let’s break down the sale, shall we?

If you’re a Nordstrom card member, you can shop RIGHT NOW. Early access begins today and will run through July 16th. The sale will open to everyone starting July 17th and run through August 2nd.

I’ve created the ultimate Nordstrom Anniversary Shopping list below – from beauty must-haves to classic wardrobe staples, here’s my favorite deals you can shop right now!!
