Today is the day! The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is now open to everyone, and prices go back up on August 7th. So if there’s something you need for this winter (or even need something now) or need to restock something, now is the chance.
I also want to remind you that it’s okay to not need anything at all. Sometimes this sale can be overhyped, and I was even a little burned out before it even started. BUT there were a few good items I found that I want to share with you, and I even purchased a few things for my mom and sister!
I actually bought this top last year on blue during the sale and it’s one of my most worn items! I wear it with jeans and my black dress pants. This is a top that I highly recommend and I’m excited to get it in a different color so I can now have two.
This is the shirt in a different color that I tried on last year but ended up keeping the blue.
I was so excited to see these products back in the sale! First, these are both really huge bottles. One is a dry shampoo and the other is a texturizing spray. I use the texturizing spray when I have clean hair and want to curl it with my wand. Plus, the scent on both of these is great and my hair always smells really good after using them 🙂
I thought this top would be great to wear now to school since I start school July 31st and August is the hottest month ever. This will also be great to wear with either jeans on a Friday or black dress pants during the week! And the price is great. It. can also be worn during colder months with a blazer over it.
I was very excited to grab another pair of these pjs! I have a navy blue and a black pair and now I’m adding the Barbie pink LOL. These wash and dry really well and I’ve had both pairs for a few years. If you need a new pair of pjs, these are great!
Okay now I want to share a few things Dustin and Harrison got and the things my mom and sister used my card to buy for themselves!
Since Harrison was born, I’ve always bought his winter coat from the anniversary sale. This year they didn’t have any North Face in the sale at all (not happy about that), so I grabbed him a bigger size in this pullover. He’s had the gray the past two years, but I did the navy this year. I would suggest sizing up one size because I do feel like it runs a little small.
I also grabbed him this polo (I ordered his normal size) for him to start wearing to school and church. This is one of those items that he can start wearing now and wear into the fall.
Harrison is also getting a new pair of tennis shoes for school this year! He’s had these exact shoes in gray before they are great. He can put them on by himself because they have the lace cage and not laces. you have to tie.
Dustin absolutely LOVES these shorts! He has them in a few colors right now that he’s bought from past anniversary sales and he will wear them with either a t-shirt to be more casual or he will even wear a polo with them and they still look really. nice. He says they are the most comfortable shorts ever. They also come in a few different color options.
Dustin also really likes this brand. He says it’s soft, breathable, and sleek (his own words). It fits great and it’s really his favorite polo brand. I just went to link this polo and it’s already sold out! See, it really is a great buy. I’m going to link all of the Peter Millar because he also has a pair of the shorts that he loves, too.
I will be the first to admit that I thought this blanket was the most overpriced and overhyped blanket. I could not figure out why people would spend $100 on a blanket! And let me add, Im the kind of person who uses a blanket year-round–if I’m on the couch watching tv, I’m using a blanket. So almost two years ago I won one of these blankets in a contest. That’s when I realized the hype was real! It washes and dries wonderfully AND the size is huge and perfect to cover me completely when I’m laying down. My mom ended up ordering two for herself and I went ahead and ordered another one for me to keep upstairs when we watch TV up there so I’m not having to tote my blanket around ha! This would make a great Christmas gift, too.
Lastly, I wanted to share this stroller! I know this is a more expensive item but it’s really a great deal. I really love this company and they have excellent customer service that has kept us using this brand even with Banks. My sister (who is having a baby at the end of this year!) ended up ordering this stroller because it was discounted and I actually love this color more than what I have LOL. This stroller had flown with us a few times (wear and tear has been excellent and nonexistent) and I accidentally backed into the stroller once and warped the frame. They sent me a new frame right away to replace the old one. Also, both Banks and Harrison slept in the bassinet beside our bed until I moved them into their crib. I used this stand and now it is their laundry hamper!
Hopefully this is helpful! There are thousands of items in the sale and it can get overwhelming quick. I wanted to share things we actually use and have ordered and love!
