The Best Investment Piece of the NSale … Every Year!

One of my favorite things to do is help you select the very best items on the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. And, after many many years as a Nordstrom Buyer and Personal Stylist, you can imagine that I kinda know a thing or two about navigating the sale 😉 I can confidently say that coats and jackets are always the smartest investment. And, these are the pieces we all still wear (and love) years later. Ironically, my first buying assignment with Nordstrom was in the coat and suit department, which might be where my love of coats comes from!

This year, there are many excellent choices — and the prices are incredible! You have everything from under $200 finds to the coolest leather jackets to luxurious staples you’ll own for years. My advice is to find one or two (or three) that you love, because I guarantee you’ll wear them all the time. Keep scrolling to see my latest finds, plus a few outfit boards to inspire how to style them once the temps drop. Happy shopping!

P.S. Yesterday I went LIVE on Instagram straight from the Nordstrom dressing room! Click here to watch the video, and click here to see everything I shared!

The 10 Best Things to Buy at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: Best of Beauty

But First … These are the Top Items to Shop on the Sale (I tell all my friends to grab these)!

#1 – Paige Anessa jeans – If you only buy one jean on sale, these are the ones I recommend. They fit everyone, and they’re modern and stylish, and you’ll wear them all year long. They come in an ankle style and this new brown color. And, if you want a new black ish wash, these just arrived.

#2 – Nordstrom cashmere hoodie – I love a good cashmere sweater, and the hoodie always sells out. All the Nordstrom cashmere is well-priced and great quality. Check out this basic crew and this cardigan.

#3 – Veronica Beard boots – Seriously the best boots on the sale. The heel height is perfect, and the pointy toe is updated and versatile to wear with everything. Check out all the colors here.

#4 – Fleurette coats – For years, this has been one of my favorite coat brands. The quality is amazing, and it’s a really good time to grab one on sale. Check out the two above: here & here. Also love this camel peacoat.

#5 – Michele watch – Treat yourself to something special – anything by Bony Levy is a great choice, like these bracelets, here & here. Same with a Michele watch – all timeless pieces you’ll love forever.

#6 – AWAY luggage – There is so much luggage on sale this year, and this set caught my eye. I own the one above in a dark navy color, and the expandable option is so great. Plus a matching set just makes you feel a little extra when going through the airport.
