There are so many things I love about Nordstrom. Let me count the ways:
- Great customer service
- Good-quality products
- Free shipping
- The annual Anniversary Sale!
The catalog has officially arrived, which means one of my favorite sales of the year is here.
If you’ve spent any time online this week, you’ve probably noticed everyone has a list of Nordstrom Anniversary Sale picks. Mine is a little different. I’m not an affiliate, and I’m not earning a commission if you buy anything. These are simply products I’ve owned, loved, and recommended to friends for years.
I am not a Nordstrom affiliate and don’t receive any compensation for these recommendations.
These aren’t the biggest discounts in the sale—they’re simply the items I’ve bought over the years and would happily purchase again.
The Luxury Candle I Buy Again and Again
I love a good $5 Walmart candle. Do not get me wrong.
But if you’re looking for the ultimate candle splurge, Jo Malone wins every time. One lives permanently in our guest bathroom, and even when it isn’t lit, the fragrance fills the room.
The Anniversary Sale includes a two-candle gift set featuring Lime Basil & Mandarin and English Pear & Freesia. It’s a significant savings over the regular price and makes a wonderful gift—or a well-deserved treat for yourself.
Trust me…a relaxing bath with one of these candles burning feels positively luxurious.
Even though I like a fancy home on a budget, this is worth the splurge.
The Softest Throw I’ve Ever Owned
My favorite cozy Bliss throw blanket lives on our living room sofa and gets used almost every day. I’ve also gifted this blanket several times, and it has always been a hit.
Despite frequent trips through the washing machine, mine still looks nearly new. If you’ve been thinking about buying one, the Anniversary Sale is one of the best times to do it
Curling up with this blankie after making my cup of tea is just one more of my little luxuries.
My Favorite Comfortable Shoes
Sofft has become my go-to brand for comfortable shoes that still look stylish.
One of the reasons I enjoy buying shoes from Nordstrom is the free shipping and generous return policy. It makes trying a new style much less stressful.
This year’s sale includes several cute loafers for fall. The Monique Penny Loafer Mule (which happens to share my sister’s name!) is especially tempting.
The Sneakers I Keep Coming Back To
The popular 327 Sneaker is included in the sale. While the discount isn’t huge, these shoes tend to sell quickly and aren’t often deeply discounted, making this a good opportunity if you’ve had your eye on a pair.
Activewear That Holds Up Season After Season
I have purchased Zella pieces for myself and for hub over the years.
Nordstrom’s in-house activewear line offers quality basics that hold up well season after season. They may not be the least expensive or the trendiest option, but I’ve found them to be dependable wardrobe staples.
I think this ruched tank looks flattering and comfortable in good colors.
Wrap Up
If your weekend includes a little shopping, it might be worth taking a look at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
Even if you don’t have a Nordstrom store nearby, free shipping and free returns make shopping online easy.
And if you’ve discovered a favorite Nordstrom purchase that I should know about, leave me a comment. I’m always looking for recommendations!
Have a wonderful weekend!
