Below are the dates for when everyone can shop depending on their Nordstrom status:

• July 12: Early Access for cardmembers with Icon status.

I would make a wish list now when you’re logged into the Nordstrom website, so you can easily add items to your cart when it’s your time to shop. If you’d like to support me or I helped you find something you love, you can click any link in this post prior to checking out – thank you so much for your support this year and every year!

BAREFOOT DREAMS BLANKET:
The Barefoot Dreams in the wild throw blanket tends to sell out each year especially in certain colorways, so I encourage you to get one as soon as you can shop the sale if you don’t already have it. I have it in the camel and black colorway as well as the tan and cream color way. I have one downstairs on our couch and I sleep with one every single night. It’s so soft, cozy and chic – a blanket you actually want to show off!

FOR THE OFFICE
For those of you working in an office setting, here are some tops, dresses and pants I think are really pretty, versatile and timeless to add to your closet.

BRAS & UNDERWEAR
I got my first pair of natori briefs during last year’s sale and they’re my favorite sleep undies (yes, I wear a new pair every night after showering) and the most comfortable cotton ones I own. They have a great level of stretch but are a perfectly soft, breathable cotton.

True and Co. bras have been my favorite for years and I own one in every style- you can’t go wrong. I also love the Nordstrom brand comfort layer bra (black) and it’s under $11.

WORKOUT & ATHLEISURE
This is one of my favorite categories this year because everything is by brands I love and already own.

The alo airlift 7/8 leggings are my tried and true favorites – the ones I splurge on. I have them in two colors already and this blue is so fun! I have not tried their sports bra but love the longline style that matches the leggings. I wear a size small in these leggings.

ZELLA live-in high waisted leggings are a staple in any legging collection – they’re great for lounging, yoga and to wear with tunics!

I was thrilled to see the IVL pink scalloped sports bra and IVL scalloped leggings as I own and adore both in black and white. I wear a 6 in the leggings (but would prefer a 4) and an 8 in the bra (size up).

DENIM
So much good denim this year – I can’t wait to try all of these on. I always get at least one pair of jeans during the anniversary sale.

JACKETS
I don’t need any jackets this year (Lord knows I have quite the collection), but these are my picks this year. It has rained so much in Houston this summer that I swear I could justify another raincoat.

SWEATERS & TOPS
I hate the thought of buying sweaters when it’s 95 degrees outside, but zi really liked several this year and plan to try them on if they’re not sold out by the time I order. I also included a few tees that can be worn now and the fun take on the nap dress we’ve all come to love.

SHOES
I’m not big on shoes. I don’t own a ton of pairs and of the pairs I have, I wear the same few over and over (and over). My shoe selections are always small because how many pairs of booties or running shoes do we really need each year? Having said that, here are some thoughts:

I have a pair of on cloud running shoes and they’re all I wear when we go to the park, on walks with Teddy, etc. I love the way they feel – super supportive.

I have heard that the adidas ultra boost are the ultimate running & cross training shoe. I’m not a runner but I’ve heard enough positive feedback that I feel confident recommending them.

I have not purchased booties since like 2018. I did order a pair in 2019 but the fit didn’t work for me so I retuned them. However, I really love these classic Steven madden tan booties and will likely order a pair hoping they’ll work for me.
