Oh happy day! The NSale opens to Ambassador Members today (non-cardholders can shop starting July 15), but you can save items to a Nordstrom Wish List now for fast and easy shopping later. Things go fast once the NSale opens to all, so youโll want to be ready!
I had the chance to check things out at my local store yesterday, and the selection was impressive! The NSale can be a little overwhelming (#understatement), so hopefully todayโs post is useful in helping you navigate this epic event, and focus on the items that will bring the most value to your closet. Iโve spent the last week scouring the site, and have rounded up my top picks in every category, starting with Women.
But firstโฆ a few peeks at the styles I loved most from my shopping day today! In fact, I loved them so much, I’m going to name them my Top Five of the sale!!
Sugarplum Shopping Tip: If youโre not an Ambassador member able to shop today, you can use todayโs post as a look book to save your favorites to your Wish List for when your shopping day arrives! If my posts have been helpful and youโd like to ensure I receive credit, simply click HERE prior to checking out in the same browser window it opens. I appreciate yโall so much!
DRD Sneak Peek //
If it’s Zella and in the NSale, chances are it’s goooood! Especially this quilted vest, which was an immediate Top Five fave! It’s super soft and lightweight (not bulky at all), in the softest nylon material. Of course I was smitten with the pink, but the bone color is so chic, too.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small in the vest, leggings, cargo pants.

Denim and Shoes were the big winners for me (in the fashion category), and I hit the jackpot with several styles. Of course I couldn’t pass up the chance to grab my beloved Mother denim while it’s on sale!
Of course I grabbedย new basic teesย to replace our tired ones from last yearโฆ how can you pass up $16?!
Fit Tip: Iโm wearing a size 27 jeans and a size Small tee.

Kut from the Kloth makes incredible denim, as well, and these are both under $75. These will both be go-tos this year.
Fit Tip: Iโm wearing a size 2 in both jeans and a size Small tee. The mules are true-to-size.

This Barefoot Dream Lounge Set feels like the softest, most comforting hug! I also grabbedย these cozy socks, andย this cozy $30 throw. This three-piece set was an unexpected gem, too!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size small, but the pant set runs a little big.

I couldnโt resist cozy cashmere for under $100โฆ itโs Fall perfection! Super soft and in classic crewneck style, itโs impossible to choose a favorite color! I always grab a new one while they’re on sale, and they make great gifts, too!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size Small sweater and size 2 jeans. The mules are true-to-size.

I loved several shoes, but if Iย hadย to narrow it down, these are my top four styles.
Fit Tip: The mules, New Balance sneakers, and ballet flats are true-to-size. I sized down a whole size in the adidas sneakers.

Hi Cassie,
Just wanted to let you know the links donโt work without downloading the Nordstrom app. I deleted it a while back since it took up too much room. I can go to the browser and search the items individually but it would be nice if they opened up in a separate browser for readers that donโt have the app. Also Iโd hate for you to miss referral credits. Hope this is helpful feedback! (Btw Iโm on a iPhone 12 with current iOS)
I’m so sorry, Megan…I have no idea why it’s doing that?! I’m linking the same way I always am. Are you talking about the links from my blog post, or are you clicking through LTK?
Great sale finds! Do you think the Mother jeans run small? Thanks for doing the shopping homework for us!
Hi Jamie! I think many of the styles do run a touch small, so I usually size up. But also, I don’t like my denim too tight!
