Prime Day might be done and dusted, but thanks to the ongoing Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, the deals are still hot.
And since nobody knows how to shop a sprawling sales event like our own expert editors — many of whom have spent the past few weeks sifting through Nordstrom’s many deals for the best beauty buys and fashion finds — we had to ask Page Six staffers to spill the items they’re eyeing from the annual event.
From an Oprah-approved sweatshirt to a fragrance that’ll earn you “nonstop compliments” to the “dressier” Birkenstocks that changed this editor’s opinion of the brand, keep scrolling to shop our top picks from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale before it’s too late; prices go back up August 5.
“Following a brief flirtation with the Boston clog in high school, I swore off Birkenstocks for years — that is, until I laid my eyes on the big-buckled version of the brand’s Arizona sandal a few years ago. I promptly picked up a black glossy pair, and they’ve since become my go-to summer shoes. In addition to being incredibly comfortable and versatile from a styling standpoint, the oversized hardware makes them feel a bit dressier than most Birkenstocks. I paid full price for my pair, but you should definitely consider snapping up the style in this Hermès-coded orange color while you still can.” — Elana Fishman, Page Six Style Editor
“After receiving a sample of Jo Malone’s English Pear & Freesia perfume, I became immediately obsessed. I’m very picky when it comes to what fragrances I wear, and after dabbing this one on, I received nonstop compliments. If you love something sweet with a hint of sexy, I highly recommend adding it to your rotation. You also can’t go wrong with the brand’s Nectarine Blossom & Honey fragrance.” — Astra, Page Six Anchor/Producer
“I’ve been using YSL mascara since the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale last year, and I truly don’t know how I ever lived without it. I feel like my lashes look so much more voluminous after just a few swipes (unlike other mascaras I’ve tested), and it’s easily become the most important step in my makeup routine.” — Hannah Southwick, Page Six Commerce Writer/Reporter
“I love using big sales as an excuse to stock up (and save) on stuff I already know and love — like Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream, my favorite cold-weather moisturizer that I swear could revive even the most parched of complexions. I can’t wait to try the Magic Body Cream included in this exclusive set!” — Elana Fishman, Page Six Style Editor
“I buy a new pair of Ugg slippers every year during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale because the savings is unbeatable. I love that these have a fun platform that is sturdy enough to go outside in case I need to walk my dog, take out the trash, etc. in my slippers.” — Ally D’Aluisio, Page Six Managing Editor
“This designer bag is both chic and versatile – and $100 off? I’m sold! And the removable crossbody strap it comes with is an added bonus. I already know I’ll get plenty of use out of this.” — Desiree Murphy, Page Six Deputy Editor
“To say I’ve gotten use out of my first pair of Stan Smiths would be a dramatic understatement. Over the past five or so years, I’ve styled them with everything from denim to dresses and walked hundreds (thousands, probably) of city blocks in them. I even recently had to replace the laces because they’d gotten so dirty! Now’s the perfect time to pick up a fresh pair of the comfy classics for less.” — Elana Fishman, Page Six Style Editor
“I finally jumped on the AirEssentials bandwagon and bought the viral Half Zip Sweatshirt on a recent trip, and I’ve worn it on all four flights I’ve been on this summer. Sadly, I paid full price for mine, but this crewneck is more than $40 off in the Anniversary Sale!” — Kristin Contino, Page Six Style Writer
“I purchased one of these duffles during last year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and have used it on every trip I’ve been on since. The large size is spacious and easily holds all items needed for a weekend trip while still being small enough to fit underneath the seat on an airplane. I love that it’s easy to clean and has held up immaculately through numerous trips across the world.” — Ally D’Aluisio, Page Six Managing Editor
“These buttery-soft leggings are my new go-to travel pants. It’s no wonder Oprah’s named Spanx a ‘Favorite Thing’ so many times.” — Hannah Southwick, Page Six Commerce Writer/Reporter
“Supergoop!’s Unseen Sunscreen’s my go-to summertime SPF; it’s weightless, invisible and layers beautifully beneath makeup as a primer. And thanks to those first two factors, it conveniently happens to be the only face sunscreen my very fair-skinned husband (who burns if he so much looks at the sun) is willing to wear. With plenty of bright and broiling days still ahead, it’s definitely time to stock up.” — Elana Fishman, Page Six Style Editor
“The Apotheke Charcoal candle is one of my all-time favorite scents (I even picked it up at last year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!). This year, I’m stocking up once again, with the addition of Charcoal Rouge — the newest fragrance that adds some floral rose notes to the classic Charcoal scent for a romantic twist.” — Melissa Minton, Page Six Style Senior Writer/Editor
“Kate Somerville is one of my favorite skincare brands, so to see it featured in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a day-maker for sure. I’ve used ExfoliKate for years; your skin feels super soft and clean after use. And the best part? This jumbo size is marked down by more than $50!” — Kelly Laske, Page Six Senior Social Media Editor
“It might be a gazillion degrees right now — but eventually, cooler weather will come, and I still haven’t purchased the cherry red sweater I swore I was going to add to my wardrobe last fall. I’m a sucker for all things Free People and my sensitive skin can’t tolerate wool, making this chunky cotton crewneck an absolute no-brainer.” — Elana Fishman, Page Six Style Editor
“It’s hard to start thinking about colder weather when it’s been so hot in New York, but now is the time to start saving on fall and winter staples. I am a HUGE fan of these Sorel boots as they are waterproof, lightweight and wear like a boot/sneaker hybrid, which makes walking around in wet conditions way more comfortable. They protect from rain and snow and look so cute with a pair of jeans!” — Tori Schneebaum, Page Six Photo Director
“Packing for vacation is so hard when you are trying to fit everything you need in your carry-on, but this Herschel duffle bag makes it so much easier. It’s like a Mary Poppins bag in terms of how much you can fit, and I love that it clips onto my roller bag! Also, the pink color is so cute.” — Tori Schneebaum, Page Six Photo Director
“I have heard great things about the NuFace and figured now is the perfect time to try it. I have combo skin that reacts well to hyaluronic acid, so I’m excited to see how this serum works with the device.” — Ally D’Aluisio, Page Six Managing Editor
“I’m obsessed with shadow sticks, especially for travel, and Bobbi Brown makes some of the best. This trio is amazingly priced and the colors will go with any beauty look.” — Kristin Contino, Page Six Style Writer
“I’m always down to try anti-aging tools, so when I saw this Solawave skincare wand, I was intrigued. I’m a red light mask user, but what I like about this is it’s small and compact and perfect for traveling. In the summer months, I find myself all over the place and can bring this anywhere without it taking up space in my bag. After just a few uses, I’ve noticed a decrease in my dark spots and a more even skin tone. I highly recommend getting your hands on this tool while it’s 30% off!” — Kelly Laske, Page Six Senior Social Media Editor
“Blazer dresses are such a classic look to me, and I love the fit and style of this dress. It feels like the perfect dress to transition from day to night, and it’s a great price with the sale!” — Caroline Blair, Page Six Reality TV Reporter
“I love putting fresh flowers or interesting centerpieces on my dining room table, and this marble lazy Susan would be the perfect upgrade. I’m torn between the gray and white but either way, you can’t go wrong.” — Kristin Contino, Page Six Style Writer
“Tom Ford’s Lost Cherry fragrance, which features a seductive blend of black cherry, bitter almond and spice notes, has been on my wish list for years but the high price tag has always thrown me off. I was truly ecstatic when I saw this deal — especially because the travel set also comes with two other fragrances. A total bang for your buck!” — Desiree Murphy, Page Six Deputy Editor
“Leopard print is a neutral these days, right? These knee-high boots are so cute, and the heels are so practical. I’d pair them with any black or beige neutral outfit all winter and fall!” — Caroline Blair, Page Six Reality TV Reporter
“I’ve long been searching for a signature scent, but after trying this floral blend, I think I may have finally found the one. Don’t let ingredients like vanilla and jasmine fool you; the floral-ambery blend is the perfect mix of woodsy and sweet.” — Hannah Southwick, Page Six Commerce Writer/Reporter
“Rails makes some of my favorite everyday wardrobe essentials, and I’m simply smitten with this sweet star-printed sweater. Since it’s a cotton blend, it (a) won’t leave me itchy and (b) will make a great transitional piece when fall weather rolls around.” — Elana Fishman, Page Six Style Editor
“Bombas makes the best running socks I’ve ever tried, and I’m excited to score some on major markdown thanks to this Nordstrom-exclusive value pack.” — Hannah Southwick, Page Six Commerce Writer/Reporter
