Good morning babes! I wanted to share some details about this year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale since so much has changed from previous years! Thank you, COVID!🤣
I always think of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale as the best sale of the year & it is truly something I look forward to! With everything going on this year and shopping moving away from in-store to online, the sale has been pushed back and is no longer in July. It’s is closer to the fall & the waiting has made me more excited to shop for Fall items!
DETAILS FOR THIS YEAR’S NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE
Table of Contents
TO START WITH, WHAT IS THE NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE?
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (sometimes known as the #NSale on Instagram), is when Nordstrom releases brand-new fall merchandise at very, very discounted prices.
We’re not just talking any old fall merchandise, though… all of the designers team up to offer exclusive items. I’m talking Vince Camuto booties, TopShop & Free People sweaters, Kate Spade handbags, Kendra Scott jewelry, even Alo Yoga matching sets. The prices are always insane and some items are marked down by several hundred dollars.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?
Unlike other sales, where items start out at full price and then are marked down, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the opposite. Items start on sale for a selected period of time, and then prices go back up after the sale ends. You won’t find deals like this on brand-name items anywhere else for the rest of fall and winter, so people usually buy now and wear later.
This was my strategy last year and I wore everything I bought through the following Spring. Y’all I saved SO much money by buying early.
WHEN CAN I SHOP?
This year, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has an Early Access Sale for all Nordstrom cardholders starting on August 13th. During this time, only Nordstrom debit or credit cardholders can shop the sale. This is important because items usually sell out quickly and if you are able to shop early, you get the first pick and your size is guaranteed to be available. If you want to shop Early Access, you can sign up for a Nordstrom debit or credit card here (known as the “Nordy Club”). So I would recommend signing up now!
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is open to everyone on August 19–30. Prices go up August 31.
WHAT’S DIFFERENT ABOUT THIS YEAR’S NSALE?
Aside from the fact that the sale begins in August this year, another difference is that Nordstrom is giving everyone the ability to preview the sale items this year starting ONE WEEK FROM TODAY on July 24th. This is brand new this year!
I love that Nordstrom is doing this because it gives everyone the chance to preview the entire sale and save items to your Wish List so you can check out faster when it’s time to shop.
I will of course be sharing my top picks from the sale throughout the entire sale. Like usual, I’ll be doing my normal IG Story Try-On sessions, as well as featuring my favorite beauty buys, home finds, best of fitness, and more. Make sure you are checking my blog, Instagram, and following me in the LIKEtoKNOW.it app to make your shopping easier!
WHICH ITEMS USUALLY SELL OUT QUICKLY?
Typically, fall shoes like suede booties and over-the-knee boots fly off the shelves. Same with Topshop cardigans, Barefoot Dreams Blankets, Free People sweaters, and also designer jeans. Last year, a striped Madewell cardigan was the first to go. I always put together a roundup of my top picks that usually sell out first. So be sure to subscribe to my blog via email so you don’t miss a post!
WHAT HAPPENS IF I ORDER SOMETHING AND IT DOESN’T FIT?
Hands down, the best thing about Nordstrom is their customer service! If you order something online and it doesn’t fit, you can return it for free online or in the store. Each package comes with a return shipping label – you simply fill out the form inside, slap on the label and you’re good to go.
I’ve been skipping the post office because of COVID, and learned you can schedule the post office to pick up returns from your house. BLESS.
