NSale Hits & Misses: Denim + Bottoms – Living in Yellow

    The 2025 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is officially here, and we’ve been elbow deep in trying the pieces so you don’t have to! We’re sharing what was a hit and what was more of a swing and a miss in today’s post, specifically for denim and bottoms! Don’t forget to join the LIY Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Facebook Group where there are nightly giveaways happening!

    PS You can check out Erin’s FULL Hit’s & Misses blog post in one spot right here!

    PSS Consider THIS your NSale headquarters, with all the content in one spot!

    If you have been shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale already, you may have missed a thing or two, but have no fear – you have until August 4th to purchase the products at a major discount. After that, prices will go back up to normal.

    ANNIVERSARY SALE SHOPPING TIPS & TRICKS

    1. Anything that you love and want for yourself, add to your wish list and check out once the sale is live for your card level [reminder: if you don’t have a card, the public sale starts July 15th]! If it isn’t currently available in your size and color preference, things are always coming in and out of stock, so check back often!
    2. Remember that Nordstrom always offers free shipping and free returns! Because of this, I would recommend ordering two sizes on things you are unsure of, to make sure that you can get it at the sale price and return the one that doesn’t work!
    3. Some of the items I mention may currently be out of stock, but check back often for restocks! We’ll also be notifying you of restocks over on our Facebook page and #NSALE group [highly recommend joining the group for a ton of helpful info and nightly giveaways!] 
    4. Keep in mind that while the sale lasts until 8/4, things go quick so don’t be like N*Sync and have to say “bye, bye, bye” to everything before it’s gone – shop early!
    5. BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE — to see even more #NSALE looks from the team, be sure to check out our lookbook for even more goodness!
    6. Grab the Nordstrom app for the easiest shopping experience AND instant restock alerts when you add to your wish list!

    The stretch, the fit, the price, and the cuff…these earned the top pick for denim in my book this year!

    Rag & Bone Wide Leg Jeans [size up] // Halogen Sleeveless Cardigan [true to size, wearing XS] // Treasure & Bond Flutter Sleeve Sweater [true to size] // Dolce Vita Western Boot [true to size, wearing 8]

    These are definitely a splurge pair of denim, but I got told so many times from the team how much they loved them when I slipped them on I did too…note that they do not have much stretch!
