Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: 2022 Public Access

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Public Access Guide

Every July Nordstrom puts on their Anniversary Sale. While some who have their store credit card have been shopping for a couple of weeks, the sale goes live on July 15th to the public - aka we can all shop!

I’m going to share an unpopular opinion, but I honestly don’t think this sale is that major unless you’re really needing to stock up on basics, gifts for the holidays, or a big ticket item you’ve had your eye on. Most of the items that are on sale are the same every year and actually go on sale again believe it or not, but if you’re looking for some fall shoe staples, home decor and items, or big ticket items like luggage and baby/kid items then I found some great deals!

My favorites are boots and booties, beauty bundles, the barefoot dreams blanket (expensive even on sale, but in my opinion, worth every penny), and denim. Check out the categories below:

TOPS

If you’re looking for tops for the office, staples heading into cooler months, or chic sweaters, there are some great pieces. I love this white button-down and this off-the-shoulder sweater for simple, yet chic outfits. This top would be great for work paired with a linen pant in late summer, or trousers in the fall.

DENIM & PANTS

Some of the best deals of the sale are on denim and I’m loving the selection this year. With a wide range of styles and washes, there is something for everyone. I love these Levi’s that are super popular for an everyday staple and am loving this looser fit style for casual looks if you’re into ripped denim.

DRESSES

Whether you’re looking for a wedding guest dress or a cute mini to style with boots, there are some great dresses included in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale this year. I’m loving the florals and patterns too!

JACKETS

Since we haven’t lived in Chicago for a couple of years now, I don’t find myself reaching for jackets and coats as much, but am still a sucker for a layering piece or statement jacket. I love the quilted trend and this jacket is so chic and cool. This leather trench is such a fun twist on the classic style.

handBAGS

Honestly, I wasn’t super impressed with the handbag selection this year, but I liked these classic and chic bags from Marc Jacobs and Coach!

ACCESSORIES

Trends are leaning toward more of a mix or statement jewelry and the dainty styles that have been everywhere for the last few years and the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is providing some amazing deals on pieces that are fun, yet classic. I love these earrings for every day, but unique style. If you are looking for a gift for a mom in your life, this necklace is really cute!

ATHLETIc, PJS & INTIMATES

If you live in athleisure as I do then investing in some great pieces during the sale is a great option! I love chic jackets and you can’t go wrong with a pair of staple leggings.

Shoes

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has some great categories, but the shoe department can’t be beaten. From colorful heels and booties you’ll wear all year, there are amazing pieces at great discounts. If you’re into the new love of loafers then try these, love the color!

Home

As I mentioned above, the barefoot dreams blanket is one of the best purchases I’ve made and I personally think worth every penny. Nordstrom has an amazing return policy so if you grab one and don’t love it, returning is easy, but I can say I don’t think you’ll be sending it back! I personally like the cozy chic line, but they have a slightly cheaper version that is also great! The sale is also a great time to stock up on glassware or bedding (both make a great gift for newlyweds or house-warming parties)!

Men

I sometimes feel that the men’s department of Nordstrom is better than the women’s and Kollin always leaves the sale with more than I do ha, but we love their jackets and shoes. Kollin loves these Blondo waterproof chukka boots and they’re $50 off during the sale.

Kids and Babies

While I don’t have kids yet, I’ve been told these carseats and strollers are amazing so take advantage of these great prices!

Beauty

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is known for amazing beauty bundles and I think they are great this year! Take advantage of skincare bundles and fragrances at a major discount. There are also great deals on tanning products and you can’t miss this moisturizer on sale for $1,300! LOL

I hope y’all find something you’re shopping for or just something to treat yourself with! Have a fabulous weekend!
