It’s that time of year again – the yearly Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! This year I’m focused on quality pieces you’ll actually reach for, the timeless kind you can wear on repeat and restyle a dozen ways. The dresses are a little quieter this time around (although I do love this Reformation dress that is included!), but the jeans, shoes, and beauty are where it’s at. I’m talking my favorite denim brands, the sneakers and sandals I keep coming back to, and the skincare I’d stock up on at full price, let alone on sale. There are some really fun accessories in the mix too. And it’s still a great time to grab gifts, whether that’s a housewarming something for a friend you’ve been meaning to see, a wedding party gift, or a just-because.
If you are new to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, the sale is unlike any other sale because, for a limited time, brand new Fall styles are marked down at major discounted prices. SO many amazing designer and brand name pieces are on sale for only a few weeks and at limited quantities! The prices then go back up for the rest of the season.
I know — I hear this all the time, it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the #nsale. As always, we try to keep our guides easy to shop with just a few favorites from each category.

Jen’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Picks for Jeans
I love my jeans and the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the perfect time to update jeans at a great deal. I’m a huge fan of Mother jeans and AG jeans, so those are the ones I’m eyeing, along with those fun jeans from Free People…I also own those Madewell Barrel jeans (which I LOVE) and they are on sale!
Mother The Bookie Sneak Mid Waist Bootcut Jeans // Pistola Lana High Waist Wide Leg Jeans // Rails Del Mar Boyfriend Jeans // Free People Patch Detail Stripe pants // Favorite Daughter The Mischa Super High Waist Wide Leg Jeans // Madewell Barrel jeans // AG Hattie Raw Hem High Waist Crop Barrel Leg Jeans // AG Adria Low Rise Wide Leg Jeans
Fave Shoes from the 2026 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
So many good shoes this year. The white Vejas and the Sambas are the sneakers I’ll live in through fall, and I finally caved on that olive suede kitten heel bootie because that color in the fall gets me every time. If you want a heel with a little something, the floral embroidered pumps are so pretty, and the light blue pair doubles as something blue if you’ve got a wedding coming. I own these Reformation knot sandals and reach for them constantly, and the Birkenstocks are $70 off, which is not a deal I’d sit on.
Vega Campo Sneakers // Adidas Samba Sneakers // STAUD Green Suede Boots // Arizona Big Buckle Birkenstocks // Ted Baker London Floral Heels // Something Blue Heels // Reformation Petra Cylinder Heel Sandals // Cayla Flats
If you need socks, these are my fave no-show socks and I love these cute frilly socks as well!
The Best Accessories from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
Accessories are where this sale gets fun. Suede bags are my favorite for fall, and there are two great ones here, a slouchy gray hobo and a rich cognac shoulder bag, plus a woven raffia clutch to carry out the last of summer. That little gold heart necklace is one I already own and love. A good belt does so much to elevate a simple outfit, and the bow earrings are just delightful. The baroque pearl drops would be perfect for your wedding day.
Janis Pendant Necklace // Huntley Hobo Bag (comes in 5 colors!) // Bow Earrings // Heart Pendant Necklace // Suede Belt // Dolce Vita Amina Shoulder Bag // Freshwater Pearl Drop Earrings // STAUD Suede Shoulder Bag (comes in 3 colors)
