Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

It’s the last weekend of our Anniversary Sale (ends August 5), and we’ve shown you our favorite trends and 10 Personal Stylist picks to lust after—but don’t forget, it’s also a perfect time for stocking up on versatile fall essentials.

Check out scads of tops and cardigans you can wear now and layer later.

Skirts in every color, print and style: Prim, playful, pencil or peplum.

And who can ever have enough tights and leggings? Especially when they come in every hue from taupe to tangerine.

Sarah, our Personal Stylist Manager at South Coast Plaza (Costa Mesa, CA), took time during our busy Anniversary Sale to throw out her most-wanted Anniversary items.

1.
Pour la Victoire ‘Prado’ Tote. This is a great bag for fall! It offers function and fashion at a fabulous price.

2.
Stuart Weitzman ‘Accumulate’ Boot. The perfect blend of classic and tough makes this boot extremely versatile.

3.
Zella ‘Live-In Leggings’. Every girl should own these. I wear mine with oversized sweaters and boots. The best part is, you can lose the boots, put on a Zella tee and head to yoga.

4.
Truth & Pride Perforated Leather Biker Jacket. I am crazy about this leather jacket! It works so easily with other pieces, and its biker cut will rev up your fall wardrobe in an instant!

5.
Paige ‘Skyline Skinny’ Jeans. I love the color of the denim and fit of these jeans. The soft grey is a fantastic neutral that will become your go-to bottom for fall.

6.
Marc by Marc Jacobs Oversized Sunglasses. New sunnies are not a summer-only necessity; as the seasons change, so should your shades. This style pictured is the perfect way to break into a larger frame. Go for it!

7.
Joan & David ‘Quimberly’ Pump. A playful-yet-chic pump is the perfect balance to fall’s knits and leather. Wear it to work with a pencil skirt for a sophisticated look, or rock skinny jeans and a leather jacket for a night out.

8.
Vince Boatneck Tee. Premium basics are a wise choice. You need to have cozy, yet stylish, layering pieces to be ready for any kind of weather. Throw it on under a knit or a leather jacket—this tee can do it all!

9.
Clarisonic Mia 2. This is my number-one beauty must-have! Your skin will glow, and you’ll get the most out of your products. This is a game-changer for your skin.

10.
Rebecca Minkoff ‘M.A.C.’ Python-Embossed Crossbody Clutch. Python is a playful way to keep things neutral while adding texture.

Next season is on sale now! And we’ve got your list of fall’s most important trends to watch out for while you’re shopping. Consider this your Anniversary Sale road map.

Bold Toppers: Perk things up with a bold and beautiful completer piece that really stands out.

Narrow Cropped Pants: Show a little ankle. For the pant shape of the season, try playing with proportions and clashing patterns.

Thrown-Ons and Toppers: The go-to piece for easy layering. Pair them with lean bottoms and cinch them with a belt for flattering that figure.

Leather Jackets: Looks sporty and luxe with a narrow cropped pant or adds edge to soft, feminine tops.

Soft Tailored Shirts: Tucked or not, these are perfectly versatile and ready for layering. Go for shirts with contrast collars and cuffs or feminine prints.

Skinny Denim: Look for these guys in shades of grey or black. A no-brainer for proportion play.

Peplums: Ladylike details enhance a womanly silhouette. Amp up the glam of a tweed peplum jacket with skinny leather pants and sky-high heels.

Brooches: We love their retro-femme, finishing appeal. Make a statement with a mix of multiples.

Novelty Pencil Skirts: Add a little attitude to this wardrobe essential with patterns or bold color.

Shifts & Sheath Dresses: These are a versatile one-piece style solution.

An Array of Hosiery: From anklets to tights, think color, ribbed and sheer.

Structured Handbags: Have a little fun with playful bold colors, or add a sophisticated twist with exotic, embossed prints.

Perfect timing! Whether you’re a mother/daughter tag-team shopping our Anniversary Sale, or have a teen on your list, you should know: it’s all about short boots this fall.

We’re loving the brass hardware detailing on this BP. ‘Rally’ Bootie—a Nordstrom exclusive. We also love the year-round versatility of a bootie—think skinny jeans and a chunky sweater or a sweet summer dress.
