First, here is a quick run-down of The Classics – the staples that are part of the sale year after year and have tons of positive reviews:
[Steve Madden Calf Hair Loafer – $39, Regularly $91]
[Blondo Waterproof Booties – $69; Normally $149. So many people are obsessed with their Blondo booties, and now is the time to get them for more than 50% off].
[Hunter Tour Packable Rain Boots – $99; Regularly $150. I have been considering a pair of Hunters for years, maybe I will finally go for it!]
[Moonlight Pajamas ($39; regularly $65) – I own these and they are so comfortable! Size down if in between. They also have a shorts version, and there are tons of color options]
[Natori Rose Dream Custom Coverage Bra ($42, Regularly $79) – this is the only bra I will wear with underwire, it is very comfortable and supportive and I highly recommend it].
[Zella Live-In Leggings – $38; Regularly $59. These are my #1 favorite leggings, very soft and can be worn to workout or to lounge/work from home. Available in gray, black and pink]
[Barefoot Dreams Circle Cardigan – $68; Regularly $116 – I don’t own this one but have heard nothing but glowing reviews! It’s a great one to buy and save for a holiday gift as well. Available in plus-size here].
[Wit & Wisdom Absolution Ankle Skinny Jeans ($49, Regularly $78) – I may need to buy these this year, I know so many people who say these are their favorite jeans].
[Spanx Faux Leather Leggings – $64, Regularly $98]
[Patagonia Water-Repellant Jacket – $111; Regularly $159]

Second, here are some items I want to highlight from this year’s sale:
Daydreamer Flying Varsity Crewneck Sweatshirt – $49; Normally $87. Tie-dye continues to be very popular, and I think the tie-dye pieces from the sale will sell quick.
Quay Australia Cat Eye Sunglasses – $35, Regularly $55. I love Quay sunglasses and this is an excellent deal!
Daydreamer Rainbow Tie Dye Long Sleeve T-Shirt – $44; Regularly $69.
1.State Floral Smocked Mock Neck Blouse – $49, Regularly $89. I love a high-neck blouse, and this would be great for the office (whenever we go back there!)
[Free People Teddy Coat – $99, Regularly $168 – I don’t own a teddy coat, and I love this caramel brown color!]
Glen Plaid Double Breasted Blazer ($49, Regularly $100)
Julia Jordan Tile Print Mock Neck Midi Dress ($76, Regularly $129) – I think this is my favorite piece in the sale, because it is something unique and new that I don’t already own.
Caslon Open Front Cardigan ($39, Regularly $69) – these stripe cardigans always sell out, and I am sure this year will be no exception! It is also available in plus-size here.
Kut from the Kloth Faux Suede Jacket ($76, Regularly $118) – I love the fall color options for this, including Burgundy!
Gibson Cozy Twist Pullover ($28, normally $49) – I am not skilled at all the fancy knots and tucks people do with their tees, so I love when someone does it for me! This comes in solids and prints and the price is great. Available in plus-size here.
Gibson Notch Collar Cotton Blend Blazer ($49, Regularly $98) – this comes in a ton of colors, I personally love the hot pink!
Caslon Draped Front Faux Leather Jacket ($69; Regularly $129) – this would be such a good staple piece for fall that you can wear over a casual white tee and jeans, or over a floral dress.
B.P. Print Long Sleeve Leopard Dress ($31, regularly $55) – considering leopard is always in for fall, and the low price point – this one is likely to sell out! It is also available in plus-size here.
Barefoot Dreams Leopard Cardigan – the Barefoot Dreams cardigans are always a popular item at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, and now there is a leopard option! ($79, Regularly $134)
