Blush, velvet, moto jackets, shearling, mules, and over the knee boots are all here to stay this fall, so it is time to stock up. The Nordstrom Anniversary sale is here and shopaholics are rejoicing all over the world. If you’ve been living under a rock or need some extra encouragement, this sale is extra special (cue eyeroll from my husband) because the sale items are new for next season and will go back to normal price after the sale ends. So, let’s get shopping.

What used to be a manageable sale, now has a HUGE and overwhelming amount of items. Before you hit the racks, come up with your game plan. I always know that during the Anniversary sale I am going to buy a couple pairs of shoes, a jacket, and some sweaters. So, that is where I start. I wanted to get some sunglasses this year or a new purse, but to be honest, I was very underwhelmed by the options. But, it is also a good time of year to stock up on some basics you know you are going to need to buy come fall. I needed a new pair of leggings, leather pants, and workout pants, so those went in the cart too. The baby options are limited but AWESOME. I was hoping to find an adorable outfit to post of BB, but the options in the store were very limited. But the online options are SO good! I am dying inside over the shearling moto jacket I got for BB. It needs to be fall already so she can wear it. If you are pregnant, you are in luck. This year they have some awesome maternity finds! The year I was pregnant, not so much.

In my mind, this sale basically kicks off Fall fashion and I could not be more excited about it. Hate me if you want, but I really do not like summer style. I love sweaters, jeans, boots, and most of all, jackets. I do not think you can own too many jackets. In the fall and winter, no one sees what’s under the jacket most of the time, so your top layer must be great. Thanks to the Nordstorm sale, my fall wardrobe is well underway!

So, I rounded up some of my favorites from the sale. Happy shopping!
