This will be my second #NSALE as a full-time blogger! I am so excited to share with you all the amazing things you need to know to make the experience FUN, help you look as CHIC as possible, and most importantly SAVE YOU MONEY on some great pieces!!
For only a few weeks each summer, Nordstrom makes shoppers’ dreams come true by offering BRAND NEW ARRIVALS (for both summer and fall) at unbelievable sale prices for a limited time. This popular event is what shoppers know today as the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
Key Dates
Early Access: 8/13 – 8/19
During Early Access, Nordstrom cardholders get to shop the Anniversary Sale a FULL WEEK before it opens to the public. In order to shop Early Access this year, you MUST be a Nordstrom cardholder. If you are not currently a cardholder, you can apply for a Nordstrom Credit Card here to make sure you score the best deals before Public Access.
Public Sale 8/19- 8/30
For non-card holders, the Anniversary Sale opens to the public on Wednesday, Aug. 19 and wraps on Sunday, August 30th. Nordstrom historically restocks items that have sold out during the Early Access window, so be sure to keep an eye out!

Categories
This sale can definitely be overwhelming so I thought I would break it down to categories that I think we all are interested in, and then I picked my favorite 5 or 10 picks per category.
Workout Wear
Who doesn’t need a little updating of our workout wear from time to time. Here are a few of my favorite pieces that I think are fabulous and all on sale for a great price!
Loungewear
This year more than ever loungewear is something that we all are wearing and loving since we are staying close to home. If you are like me, you can’t get enough of soft cozy pieces in your wardrobe. Here are a few of my favorite things that I think you will love.
Sweaters
My favorite thing about Fall and Winter is being able to wear fabulous sweaters, denim and boots. I always like to add a few new sweaters to my closet and the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is always the best time to grab a few. Here are my top picks for sweaters that are so chic and such great sale prices!
Denim
This Fall and Winter you are going to be seeing all styles when it comes to denim. Cropped, wide leg, animal print and yes even white denim will be on trend all year long! Here are just a few of my favorites that range in style and color when it comes to denim.
Boots and Booties
I have to tell you this category is the one that I am the most excited about when it comes to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. I can honestly say the sale prices on boots and booties (remember these are NEW STYLES) are really great and these will be pieces you will have in your closet for a LONG TIME!! (Win-Win)! I always have the hardest time narrowing my picks as they are all amazing! But, I managed to just stick to a few of my favorites for you that I know you will love.
Shoes
If you have been following me for a while, you know that when it comes to shoes, I admittedly have a bit of a shoe obsession. In my defense, I will say I get really great wear out of them and some of my favorite pair that I own are at least 15 years old! I always try to buy my shoes when they are on sale (to not feel too guilty) and there are some amazing deals to be had in this category during this sale. Here are my favorite shoe picks that I think you will love.
I hope you like my picks and my main purpose is to help you get some beautiful yet AFFORDABLE pieces that I feel the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale offers! I will be sharing more picks that you can shop from (when the Early Access goes Live) on my Liketoknowit profile as well as my Instagram Stories throughout this sale! As always feel free to leave me a comment or send me a DM through @50shadesofstylebykelley on Instagram.
