The 2025 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale PREVIEW is here and I love this process where we can all see what’s going to be included and can start adding to our wish lists! Each year I make outfit ideas so you can start looking through your own closet and see what items you might want to refresh for the new season. I also have my top picks for men, beauty, kids and home since I shop for everyone during this sale!

Once I am able to shop the sale I will do a new post with IRL (in real life) photos of the items I purchase with sizing tips and thoughts (see last year’s post here). *THIS IS IMPORTANT* when you build your wish list don’t get too attached, things can and will sell out BUT I always try and find similar items that could be interchanged with these outfit ideas so you still get a similar look even if my item pick is no longer available.
The next biggest item to discuss is HOW to get as many of your items on your sale shopping day and that is through the “wish list” process. I talk about that and more tips and tricks in THIS post.

FASHION FINDS
This is one of the BEST times to grab some staples. I’m seeing some favorites brands and styles back again like the Wit & Wisdom wide leg pants and some splurge pieces from Veronica Beard.
It’s also a great time for refresh your fall shoes! From flats and pumps to sneakers and boots, this year I’m seeing some cute options at a variety of price points.
Also I always LOVE the beauty finds and there are some great deals on sets from my favorite brands so I always grab a few when I’m shopping the sale!
Now for what’s on my shopping list! This year like always I load up on jeans and shoes but I also saw a bunch of cute luxury tops and blazers from Frank & Eileen and Veronica Beard. These are normally splurges and rarely go on sale (with good size runs) so I’m going to try and snag some fall staples now!

BEAUTY
When I asked the TRM Tribe about their Anniversary sale shopping habits after buying fashion for yourself, BEAUTY was the 2nd biggest category you purchased and y’all I’m right there with you! This time of year Nordstrom comes out with some amazing gift sets and specials that you don’t see the rest of the year. I’ve also done a little comparison shopping and most of these items you will see something similar on sale during Prime Days but these are the better prices!

SHOES & ACCESSORIES
During the sale, every year I find so many styles of shoes, handbag and trendy jewelry options that are great for fall. Accessories are a great way to try out trends in a subtle way so I always add currently trending styles with my accessories!
This is the time of year I typically go through my closet and weed out the worn out shoes from previous years and replace with some fresh finds. The prices are excellent on many of my favorite brands so it’s definitely one of my favorite categories to shop for each year!
