Nov. 2025 Update: The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is over for the year, and we don't yet know when the 2026 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale will be. Stay tuned for their Half-Yearly Sale, which usually starts around Dec. 23. (Unfamiliar with the NAS? Check out this page for more info on why it's the best sale of the year.)

As noted earlier, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is on! For the weekend, I like this relaxed split neck top in a black and white floral — it's classic, comfy, and looks super chic. After the sale ends on August 1 it'll be $88, but for the moment it's $59.90. Bellatrix Split Neck Woven Top
There is TONS of stuff for the Anniversary sale, though, so I thought I'd do a quick roundup of my favorites. Click on the picture for the pricing info — in general, though, the pics below go in order of price.
There's also a lot of lux lingerie on sale, including:
– lots of Spanx, including SPANX® ‘Two-Timin' Tights
