Ready to refresh your closet during the best sale of the year? The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is finally here—and here’s why it’s worth the hype. It’s the only sale where you can buy fall items on sale before the season even starts (vs. end of season leftovers).
This sale is the perfect time to invest in those high quality wardrobe basics that I’m always talking about…for less.
Can you believe this is my 12th year covering the sale? That experience enables me to easily find the pieces that I think are actually worth your time and money. And, also really curate the content in a way that hopefully is the most helpful fo ryou.
So, this year, I thought it might be great to pull together some head-to-toe styled outfits from the sale that you can wear now and later— there’s truly something here for everyone.
Couple of shopping notes: Things do sell out fast so, if something is sold out already, I linked a similar style for you. Also, you can tap or click the graphics directly to easily shop these once-a-year deals!

Classic Neutral Base
Lightweight and versatile, this neutral look mixes a soft ribbed tank, perfectly chic, cropped jeans, and a beautiful thin silk scarf for your pop of color. This is one you can wear now or layer up so easily when the temps are lower this fall.
Shopping Notes: Click or tap the images above to go directly to the products. Also, do NOT order the baseball hat. The quality and fit are not quite right.
Sporty Chic Midi
This casual square neck midi dress in activewear fabric will be an effortless everyday option now into fall. Just throw on your favorite chic sneakers and a ball cap and you’re set! Then, you can add a relaxed blazer or denim jacket this fall for a super easy-to-wear look this fall too.
Monochromatic Coastal Vibes
This gorgeous crochet sweater and ecru jeans are the perfect monochromatic neutral look for a chic coastal outfit in a cooler beachside or mountain vacation. Pair it with sandals now, heeled booties later!
Sunny Summer Dress
Feminine and floaty, this striped ruffle front mini dress is perfect for hot summer days with sandals and a sun hat. Later, layer on a cardigan or cropped jacket and add booties or knee high boots to bring it into early fall.
An Edgy Touch
I love an edgy fall look and these jeans with the cool silver hardware at the waistband are definitely a standout! Leave the black vest unbuttoned to show off your silver.
Classy Vest Set
Another on-trend vest look…that I can’t get over! The denim-on-denim and vest trends that we saw last year are still going STRONG and I’m here for it. This outfit is like the classier cousin to the previous look. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale almost always has stand-out pieces from Veronica Beard and this set is my fave this year.
Reminder, do NOT order the VB slingbacks pictured above. The strap does not stay on the heel.
Pretty Printed Mini
This is the perfect wear now, wear later dress by Farm Rio. This is how I would style it now (below is for fall.) This gorge and lightweight standout dress isn’t going to last long in the sale.
Pretty Printed Mini (Fall)
And, here’s how I’d style this gorgeous dress for fall! The transition is a cinch. SImply swap your sandals for tall brown boots. This is one of those dresses that you’ll reach for again and again because of it’s flattering shape, lightweight fabric, standout print and versatility.
Pretty Printed Top
See a theme going on here?? Farm Rio also has this gorgeous print in a blouse for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! I’d pair it with light denim or ecru jeans and it will instantly feel summery, yet can easily be worn well into fall. In the winter, I’d swap the jeans out for a dark wash or even a dark chocolate brown skirt and brown boots.
This one is already sold out, but we typically see a 35% return rate, so chances are good you can still grab it. Just set a restock alert.
Easy Breezy White Top
This puff sleeve white top is 100% cotton and absolutely perfect for summer. I always look for elevated, pretty white tops for warmer weather and this is a great one. You can wear it with shorts right now, and then these wide leg jeans for fall. Easy to wear, easy to transition from season to season.
Reminder: I do NOT recommend ordering the slingbacks above. While gorgeous and high-quality, the fit is off.
Effortless Floral Top
Same idea as the chic white top, this beautiful light floral long sleeve top is one that I’d wear with denim shorts right now, and wide leg jeans in the fall. You can also pair it with a black or chocolate brown midi skirt this fall for a gorgeously elevated look.
Quick note: The strap on the slingbacks above does not stay on the heel. I do not recommend you buying them.
Classic With a Twist
A crisp, classic white blouse is always a good idea… And I love basics with a twist like this! Literally, in this case. The tie front top adds waist definition and elevates anything you pair it with. Jeans, trousers, skirts, you name it.
Crisp & Classic
Now, maybe you just want a nice, classic white button down… This one’s for you! It’s so easy to dress up or down, wear now (with shorts) wear later, with jeans or trousers. It’s a no-brainer!
Polished Modern Classic
This textured green jacket and chic black knit tank create a sophisticated base, and the wide-leg jeans keep the look modern and relaxed. Add in a pair of sleek slingbacks, a structured black bag, and delicate gold jewelry to pull it all together. You can wear this now for dinner out, and later with a trench or wool coat when you need an extra layer.
Shopping Note: The strap on the slingbacks above does not stay on your heel. I would not order these.
Modern Utility Style
This cropped cotton shirt comes in “khaki” which looks much more like a gorgeous olive green, which screams fall to me. But it’s lightweight enough that you’ll love having it to transition from summer into fall this year! It’s so easy to wear, let’s look at another outfit idea for this one!
Edgy Utility Style
To add just a bit of edge to this shirt, I’d pair it with black jeans, cool black aviators, and a gorgeous leather tote bag. Then go ahead and wear this outfit on repeat all fall long! I really want you to see with this post, that these items are so easy to style differently with small changes, and then they feel totally different and fresh!
Please note the size of the black bag online. It’s huge!
Trendy Trench
If you liked the last 2 looks, you’re going to be a fan of this one too! This trendy army green cropped trench is so cool, and paired with a barrel leg jean is just…wow. If you like to step out of the box with your fashion, this is the look for you. Cool girl vibes, yet super comfy and easy to wear. Plus, of course, these pieces can mix and match with so much more for a more sophisticated style.
Shopping Tip: Double check the size of any handbag online to make sure it’s the right size for you and your lifestyle. The bag above is very large and while there was an age and stage of life where the bigger the bag, the better…that is not my preference now.
Perfectly Cozy Cable Knit
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale always has some great cozy sweaters. As it should, since we’re shopping amazing deals on fall merchandise before the season even starts! This crew neck is a super easy to wear, easy to layer sweater. Plus it’s under $50 and comes in a ton of colors! The “Beetle” coated jeans in this outfit sold out SO fast, but check back for restocks if they’re on your wishlist. And I’ve linked a similar colored pair of jeans for you to shop below as well.
Shopping Update: The suede bag pictured above is very large. Please double check the measurements online to see if that large size is right for you.
Cool Cape Detail Cardigan
This next sweater on the list is so pretty. The cape detail caught my eye as soon as I saw it on preview day! Pair it with jeans, skirts, trousers, and it instantly elevates your whole look just on its own. Note on this one… my in-store sources shared that this sweater runs BIG, so you’ll want to size down.
Fall Midi Dress
Next on the list is a gorgeous colorblocked cotton midi dress. While you absolutely can wear it in the summer, the tones lean more towards fall for this style. This is the dress you’ll pick up when you’re ready for fall on the inside, but the weather outside is still way too hot for tall boots and sweaters! Plus, I love the mix of black and brown in this one. I’ve been pairing the colors together for years, but if you struggle to…look for pieces like this that help you out!
Chic Sweater Dress
This gorgeous sweater dress is an easy add to cart…The flattering v-neck and front-tie waistline is going to be gorgeous on any body shape! Layer up with a longline coat and tall brown boots and you’re set this fall and winter.
Tie Waist Blazer
The star of the show in this outfit is the blazer! Don’t you just love that tie-waist detail?? It’s so gorgeous, easy to wear, and one you’ll pick up all year long. It comes in both black and off-white and rings in at a sale price of $112. If you’ve been looking for a casual blazer, look no further! I think you’re going to love this one, and I don’t think it’s going to last long…
Chocolate Brown Turtleneck
This year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is full of chocolate brown. Everywhere you look, there’s another gorgeous, yummy chocolate brown piece to look at! I am a big fan. There’s also a lot of navy, which many of you will be SO excited to see, since you tell me you prefer it over black for a dark neutral. This wool and cashmere turtleneck comes in a few colors, but this look is centered around the “Brown Coffee”.
Wool Blend Cape
This next look is for cold weather only, but look at how stunning this houndstooth wool blend cape is! WOW! Layer it over a simple but warm cashmere sweater, jeans, and boots and you’ve got a simple elegant, gorgeous outfit on your hands. This is truly a stand-out piece!
A Jacket on The Wild Side
Maybe you’ve got your favorite classic winter coat covered, but you’re in the market for something a little different. Well animal print made a major comeback last winter and it’s here to stay! This animal print jacket is subtle, sophisticated, and sure to turn heads. It’s simply stunning! You’ll want to keep this the center of the show, so pair it with dark wash classic jeans, a simple top, and a solid colored bag and booties.
Edgy Vibes
Another edgy look here, with the black studded Topanga jeans by Rails and the gorgeous Oxblood leather jacket from AllSaints. I love the fact that this whole look is just on the edge of classic, with a bit of modern edginess. Perfect for concerts, going out on the town with friends, date night, and more.
Suede Essential
This suede mini dress can be worn so many ways. I love it here with a longline stand collar belted coat, and it would be so chic to pair with sheer black tights in the winter! You can also wear it now with sandals or even cowboy boots for a chic western inspired look. This one is really a versatile wardrobe basic that you’ll wear more than you realize is possible.
Faux Fur Glam
This oversized faux fur maxi coat is so glamorous. It gives off the feel of luxury, at just a fraction of the cost. You can wear this coat over anything this winter, since it’s oversized you don’t have to worry one bit about the sleeves being too tight over sweaters.
Faux Leather Midi
Our last three Nordstrom Anniversary Sale outfits are all centered around this stunning Alice + Olivia faux midi skirt. It’s SO gorgeous in the rich espresso color (remember the browns I talked about earlier??) and it’s made for the cooler months. The slip style skirt has a slit on one side and the smooth warm brown can be paired with almost anything. The first look is super easy to wear with an oversized cozy sweater, low heeled sandals, and a structured handbag.
Blacks and Browns
You may have seen this one coming with the touch of black in the handbag for the first look with this skirt. But we’re going full black and brown in this look! It used to be a fashion faux pas but not it is on-trend and SO gorgeous. Wearing a top and boots in black will help you to feel balanced as you play around with mixing these colors, and the handbag just finishes off the look with intentionality and grace.
Wear to Work
Last, but certainly not least in our lookbook of outfits from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, we’re pairing this same skirt with the crisp white button down we looked at earlier. This is a gorgeous, simple, polished outfit to wear to the office, out to dinner, or out to more elevated shows and concerts. I’m still trying to inch you into mixing blacks and browns, so go with a chic black kitten heel, black handbag, and a black longline coat if it’s cold.
Wow, that was a long one! But I hope you found this post super helpful in seeing how versatile, wearable, and practical your shopping for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale really can be. SO many items are perfect for now and later into fall and winter, making them even more worth it. I’m here to help simplify your life, and help you feel less overwhelmed as you plan what to add to your wardrobe.
