The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is finally open to everyone today! I’ve spent hours exploring the sale options and have put together my 2020 picks including (1) my tried and true favorites that I already own and are part of the sale and (2) my favorite new finds I’m eyeing. Due to the popularity of this sale, some things go out of stock quickly but but if there’s something that you really want, keep checking back! With free shipping and free returns, Nordstrom gets a LOT of returns during this sale so things will start trickling back into inventory – I had success snagging every out-of-stock item I wanted last year by quickly checking a once or twice a day until I found the item restocked. And with that, let’s get to it… (post includes affiliate links – full disclosure available {here})
My Tried & True Favorites
Marble & Wood Serving Board $49.90
I was excited to see {this marble & wood serving board} back for the Nordstrom sale (it keeps going in and out of stock so definitely check back if you can’t snag it right away!). I bought mine a few years ago and the past two years they’ve brought it back for a short time for the anniversary sale and then it disappeared for another year. I LOVE and use it all the time – you can sit it up against your kitchen backsplash as kitchen decor, use it as a pretty spot to corral a few things on your kitchen island, or go the more obvious route and use it as a gorgeous cutting and serving board:
Natori Bras $42.90 ($72 after sale)
While bras are definitely not a typical topic of conversation on Driven by Decor 🙂 I always use the Anniversary sale as a time to buy a few new ones because there are deep discounts on my favorite brand, Natori. My go-to is the Rose Dream Underwire Bra available {here} in black, nude, and a gorgeous shade of blue:
You can also check out other styles of on-sale Natori bras {HERE}.
Bliss Plush Throw $24.90 (after sale $39.50)
I have two of these Bliss Plush throws that you can find {here} and they’re just as soft and cozy as they look!
They come in a ton of colors and machine wash beautifully. Whether it’s for your own home, a Christmas gift, a dorm room, or even your pet, it’s the best time of year to pick up a few on the cheap!
Pavé Stud Earrings $49.90 ($98 after sale)
Last year I bought these Pavé stud earrings in “Platinum” found {here} and they have become one of my go-to pair of earrings. They can easily be dressed up or down for everyday wear. They would also make a nice gift (they’re actually priced over $15 less than they were during the sale last year)!
Mango Wood Cheese Board $28.90 ($39 after sale)
I also have {this gray wash wood cheese board} (large) that’s the perfect size for a meat and cheese charcuterie board, a serving board, or a cutting board for bread, etc. I normally keep mine behind my glass jars leaning against the backsplash where it adds a nice touch of warmth to our kitchen:
Leith Cardigan $39.90 ($69 after sale)
One of my favorite Nordstrom buys last year was a long, super soft blush color Leith cardigan that I wear constantly. They have an almost identical one that’s part of this year’s sale {here}. I’m only 5’3″ and am not usually too successful with long sweaters because they overpower me but the Leith cardigans tend to be more fitted than most and so flattering!
It comes in seven different colors (including a pretty light gray and an olive).
Barefoot Dreams Cardigans & Throws
You’ve heard me rave about everything Barefoot Dreams for years – they make THE COZIEST sweaters, robes, and throws – I’ve been buying them for over 15 years and can’t say enough good things about them! Even on sale they aren’t cheap but I wear the heck out of them so they’re worth it to me. Right now they’re sold out of my favorite Barefoot Dreams throw (you can keep checking back {HERE} for restocks) but they have most sizes left in this super cozy Barefoot Dreams circle cardigan {HERE} ($68.90 now, $116 after sale) – it’s available in three colors:
My Favorite Leggings $38.90 (after sale $59)
My favorite leggings (Zella Live in High Waist Leggings found {here}) are also on sale – I have several pairs in black but snagged a new pair in gray at the sale price. They are unbelievably comfortable and are a thicker, more stretchy legging that suck you in just a bit without feeling at all suffocating. They are the first thing I grab when I’ve just done all of the laundry and they’re part of my typical “travel outfit” (sure miss that little face staring at me in this pic :():
There are several other styles of Zella leggings that are also on sale {HERE}. And a lot of people swear by {these Spanx leggings} that are part of the sale too so they’re worth checking out. Also snag some of {these Zella no-show socks} if they’re in stock – I’ve tried several brands and like these the best (they’re what I have on with the slip-on sneakers in this pic)!
Other Favorite Sale Picks
There are thousands of other items on sale too – I’ve combed through most of them and these are my favorites:
Women’s Clothing
Shoes & Slippers
Accessories
Home
I hope you found a thing or two that you love! I’d love to hear your favorites too if they didn’t make my list!
Thanks Lisa – I am totally checking these out!!!
Bliss Plush throws – how does this wash with the fringe?
They wash up really well! If you see the pic I took of my gray throw on the chair, you can see that the fringe loosens up a bit over time but overall they’ve worn quite well.
