2018 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

What I Bought the First Day of the 2018 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale & Bestselling Items

July 12, 2018

 

It’s here! Who else is SO excited to shop on the opening day of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?! I’ve already made a few orders and want to share what I got with you guys. The plus side of living overseas is that I can shop the sale at a reasonable hour (10 A.M.) without having to get up in the middle of the night to shop like some of my stateside friends. The downside is that now I have to patiently wait for my packages! Nordstrom’s shipping is pretty speedy though, so hopefully everything will arrive in about a week and I can do a try-on session for another blog post. Stay tuned and happy shopping! I linked all shopping info below each item—even if you aren’t a cardholder, you can view it and make your wish list for the day it opens to the public (Friday, July 20th).

 

My Purchases from the 2018 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

 

Trouvé menswear blazer $99.90  (after sale $149.00)

I can never pass up a good plaid blazer and can’t wait to rock this with a tee and some ripped jeans!

B.P. lace camisole $22.90 (after sale $35.00)

This is such a great layering piece and less than $25! Wear it under a blazer, cardigan, denim jacket…you name it.

Levi’s 501 crop straight jeans $64.90 (after sale $98.00)

Levi’s has become one of my favorite brands for denim for their classic high rise silhouettes and this straight leg pair will be great with sock booties or mules.Vince ‘Alora’ mule $194.90 (after sale $295.00)

This is my investment piece from the sale—you just can’t go wrong with a black peep-toe bootie and I love the block heel on this style.

B.P. leopard scarf $12.90 ($19.00 after sale)

I love leopard print and at a price point of less than $15, I just couldn’t pass up this scarf. It looks so lightweight and will be perfect for wearing on chilly summer evenings and into fall.

Bodycon midi dress $29.90 (after sale $45)

I imagine this dress with a wide belt and a blazer or denim jacket—a great base layer at less than $30!

B.P. ruched dress $31.90 (after sale $49)

I have the same plan for this bodycon dress—an idea option for layering with jackets and sweaters.

Vince Camuto ‘Movinta’ bootie $99.90 (after sale $149.95)

I love the point toe on this boot and how it dips in the front—definitely sexier than your average western style bootie. I can definitely see these booties selling out quickly.

Halogen cashmere cardigan $199.90 (after sale $299.00)

I always buy at least one cashmere item during the Nordstrom sale and this cozy cardigan was it this year. I love the blouson sleeves and neutral tan color and can see myself wearing it as a jacket in Amman since fall weather is mild.

ASTR floral midi dress $52.90 (after sale $79.00)

Floral midi dresses are the ultimate summer-to-fall transitional piece. The cardigan shown above would be so gorgeous over this when it gets cooler, am I right?!

B.P. ‘Tonya’ mule $49.90 ($79.00 after sale)

This mule is on sale for less than $50—say whaaat?! I had to get it in gray since I wear the color so often. This is another great shoe to wear from summer into fall.

Leith sweater strap dress $49.90 (after sale $75.00)

Sexy alone or worn underneath a jacket, this dress has so many styling options. It also has adjustable shoulder straps, which is what really sold me.

Brahmin ‘Nadia’ satchel $230.90 (after sale $345.00)

This satchel was gifted to me by Brahmin. I had to share it with you today because I can see this beauty selling out quickly! The tan color is even more gorgeous in person.

B.P. twist front tee $22.90 (after sale $35.00)

This cropped tee will be perfect with all of my high-rise jeans and skirts and the price tag is such a steal at under $25.00.

B.P. raw edge tee $11.90 (after sale $17.00)

I always buy a few tees during the sale because it’s a great time to stock up.

Nike tank $21.90 (after sale $30.00)

I haven’t purchased any workout gear in a long time and I love the fun slogan on this tank.

 

Nike running tight $59.90 ($80 after sale)

Nike is my favorite brand of workout leggings and they hardly ever go on sale—this is the best time to buy if you’re interested!


 

Returning Bestselling Items for 2018 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

 

Leith ribbed cardigan $45.90 (after sale $69.00)

This cocoon cardigan was a bestseller during last year’s sale and it’s back this season in a ribbed texture. It will sell out for sure, so don’t hesitate to snap one (or two) up now!

Here’s the cardigan from last season, worn with the jeans pictured below.

AG ‘legging ankle’ jean $149.90 (after sale $225.00)

This exact pair of jeans was in the sale last year and I LOVE them—the length is ideal for any type of footwear and the wash strikes the perfect balance between light and dark (shown in above photo).

Lush raw edge tee $15.90 (after sale $24.00)

I love this tee and you can’t beat the price! It has the perfect v-neck that isn’t too deep. I ordered last year in white and gray (shown in above photo) and purchased the black today.

Halogen cashmere wrap $124.90 (after sale $189.00)

I bought one of these cashmere wraps last year and this season it’s back in a different pattern (same color though).

So cozy and easy to throw on over anything! What did you guys purchase today? Let me know in the comments!
