Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Access Picks

If you’re a fan of shopping sales, good news as the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Access is here. Early access to the sale is tiered out so it begins today for some credit card holders and then opens to more shoppers as the week goes on. You can bookmark this blog post to shop on the day you get access if that’s helpful!

Or, if you’re like me, currently you are building out your Wish List (my favorite function of shopping on Nordstrom.com) to shop when public access to one of the best sales of the year starts. I’ll share another post with picks when public access opens.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Access Picks

I think we’re all familiar by now that the reason this Nordstrom Sale is so great is that it is largely made up of items for your Fall wardrobe. Shop now for sale items for the season ahead at a discount. Once the sale is over, items return to their normal price.

I hope you’ll appreciate seeing my picks throughout the sale and recognize that these are highly curated. I work hard to share pieces that will be worth the spend and hope you find some things you’re excited about! Don’t miss clicking through on links to see other color options available, too.

As you guys know, I so appreciate you shopping the sale via my links – it helps so much & I’m so grateful for your support of my work! (In order to get credit my links need to be the last ones you click on before purchasing as an FYI! So if you’re looking at other people’s picks at the same time and want to ensure I get credit for your purchases, just be sure to click on one of the below links before you proceed to check out!)

Initial thoughts on the sale? The outerwear, accessories and shoes are really good this year. I skipped most of the dresses and blouses and a lot of the knitwear as many of the styles seemed dated in my opinion. The picks below are those I think are worth scooping up.

I’ve broken out my picks by my Top Picks, Fashion Finds, Outerwear , Shoes Intimates & Accessories, Fitness Finds, Best of Beauty and Home Finds. If you’re among the Nordstrom cardmembers shopping now – read on for my favorite picks from the sale!

MY TOP PICKS:

My beloved Tumi bag that I always travel with is included in the sale. Can’t recommend this bag enough.
My favorite comfy bras from True & Co are on sale! Great time to restock.
My favorite slip on sneakers are included in the sale.
If you love the look of my beloved Loeffler Randall boots – but no the price tag – these are similar.
Westman Atelier is a part of the sale! I think I squealed? Do not sleep on this duo of my favorite product – the squeaky clean lip balm (it includes my favorite, favorite shade of Nana) and this set which has their bestselling blush, highlighter and bronzer! Read: My Westman Atelier Review.
I expect this Augustinus Bader set will sell out ASAP due to the cult status of this Rich Cream. I have used it and really find it works well if you have dry skin. I added it to my cart! You can’t beat this price.
One of my very favorite body care brands, Osea Malibu, is a part of the sale for the first time and the set includes my all time favorite body oil. Trust me, this stuff is liquid gold and you will fall in love.

FAVORITE FASHION FINDS:

I love the Fall colors of this dress. Would be so perfect paired with ankle booties or knee high boots.
I adore this pair of Madewell jeans – I own them! And this pair of Levi’s that I own, too.
My favorite work from home and travel cardigan is included in the sale again this year.
This is a great pair of black skinny jeans – one of the things I always bring to Paris with me.
This striped sweater by one of my favorite investment brands La Ligne is a great find. Love this striped one, too.
This textured knit was another favorite sweater I spotted.

GREAT OUTERWEAR:

I own an earlier version of this great Club Monaco coat that’s part of the sale.
This blazer is such a great staple piece.

And I love that these boots are waterproof!
This hat that I own an earlier version of and wore here.
My beloved Tumi bag that I always travel with is included in the sale. Can’t recommend this bag enough.
I have a bracelet I wear daily that looks exactly like this one.
Adding these versatile booties to my own personal wish list.
These shoes look exactly like a pair I have owned and loved for the last several years.

This curling wand is Instagram famous and is now on sale. T3’s new smart straightener is also marked down and my blow dryer is included, too. (And how chic is the black matte hair dryer!?)
I bought the NuFace during last year’s sale and now it is on sale for under $200 as part of the sale. I am such a convert to how this lift and defines your face! (There’s also a mini which is $135).
My beloved Aquis hair towel is included. This makes a great gift!
This Charlotte Tilbury set includes two of the brand’s most iconic products – both of which I’ve tried and loved.
My Riki Light up Mirror was one of the best purchases I made in 2020 and so I can’t believe it is the sale for $70 off! So worth it for a better makeup application experience. It’s also what I use to shoot all my video makeup tutorials.
Never enough SPF this time of year so grab the Supergoop sets on sale while you can!
I adore the Kate Somerville Exfolikate and use it 1-2 x every week in the shower. It does a great job at buffing away dead skin and giving you a glow. I also find it really helps with breakouts.
This NARS blush set would make such a great gift if you have a friend’s birthday coming up.
Necessaire has a great duo of their bestselling body wash and body moisturizer. Would also make a great gift!

HOME FINDS:

My beloved Hydroflask is included.
Grab a bestselling Barefoot Dreams blanket on deal.
A Vitamix for over $200 off!
Tumi luggage on sale!
If you’ve been waiting for a Theragun on sale – now is your chance.

. . .

And a reminder that some things get restocked so either Wish List an item or keep refreshing if it is showing as sold out.

When Public Access starts I’ll be back then to round up more picks that have been added / restocked so keep an eye out for that.

Happy shopping you guys!
