Today I am showing you how to mix and match 11 key wardrobe pieces from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale for the easiest (and cutest!) everyday fall outfits – including my favorite tees, jeans, blouses, and cardigans in the sale.
Shop the Post:
Remember, all these pieces are new for fall and are temporarily marked down during the sale. Right now only Nordstrom cardholders can shop the sale, but starting Friday the sale is open to the public.
1. Bow Neck Blouse $49 ($79 after sale) + 2. Paige High Waist Skinny Jeans $131 ($199 after sale)
This bow blouse is so chic and is very similar to a MUCH pricier version I had my eye on. I paired it with these Paige denim jeans and my favorite slides from the sale, but it will also look great with a pencil skirt for work or church or blue jeans and neutral booties. A wardrobe staple for sure! Fit: true to size and I am wearing a small.
3. Striped ruffle Poplin Blouse – $45 ($69 after sale)
This button-up ruffled striped blouse is another favorite from the sale. I was drawn to the black and white stripes but it is also available in blue and white. Shown here with Paige jeans and same slides. Fit: true to size and I am wearing a small.
4. Ruffle Trim Top $39 ($59 after sale)
Ruffles are going to be big this fall. I didn’t think I’d like this ruffle top when my sister brought it to me in the store, but I actually loved it once I tried it on. So cute with jeans, too, or a pencil skirt to dress it up. This comes in four colors. Fit: true to size and I am wearing a small.
5. AG The Legging Raw Hem Jeans $149 ($225 after sale) + 6. Lush V-Neck Slide Slit Tee – $15.90 ($24 after sale)
By far the most popular jeans of the sale are these AG jeans with raw hem. (Fringe/raw hems are in as you can tell from this post!) These are so comfy and fit true to size. Definitely snag these sooner rather than later. (See favorite budget jeans below….).
If you are needing to replenish your t-shirts, this v-neck is a steal at $15.90 ($24 after sale) and comes in several colors.
7. Bell Sleeve Sweater – $58.90 ($89 after sale)
Love this bell-sleeve sweater that comes in three colors. I am wearing the navy which would look also smart with white jeans. Here I am wearing them with the AG jeans I wore above, plus my favorite booties from the sale. Sweater fit: runs small so go up a size.
8. Tie Knot Sweatshirt – $29 ($49 after sale)
These step hem jeans are my favorite budget jeans in the sale. These are nearly sold out but I am including them anyway because they will probably restock. Here I have them paired with the cutest and comfiest tie-know sweatshirt that is $29 ($49 after sale) and comes in 3 colors. Pair this #ootd with slip on sneakers like mine or these tie up sneakers I also bought in the Nordstrom sale. Sweatshirt fit: true to size and I am wearing a small.
9. Favorite Leggings Ever – $35. 90 ($53 after sale)
Here I made the same tie sweatshirt into a cute athleisure outfit with my favorite leggings that are – yay! – part of the sale. I’ve had these leggings for six months and they still look new as I show you in Instastories. These Nike Free Runs are also part of the sale – also available in white. Leggings fit: true to size and I am wearing a small.
Note: don’t miss all the cute Zella leggings and tops in the sale! If you like cut-out leggings, this pair is for you.
10. Comfiest Hooded Cardigan $75 ($114 after sale) with BP Pocket long-sleeve tee – $18.90 ($29 after sale)
Y’all people were going CRAZY for these Barefoot Dreams cardigans at the store the other day. These feel like you are wearing a comfy blanket – perfect for lounge or errands! I got the black Cozychic cardigan with pockets but I think I am going to exchange it for non-hooded circle cardigan in Cocoa/Pearl Heather. These would make amazing Christmas gifts for the women in your family – they do not disappoint! Fit: run a little big; I got a size small. In the circle cardigan, I will get a x-small/small.
If you need some long-sleeve tees, this pocket tee is a great buy at $18.90. It comes in five colors and fits true to size but I ordered up a size because I shrink everything and like things long;).
11. Lightweight Rib Stitch Cardigan – $31 ($49 after sale)
For a less expensive and lightweight cardigan, this BP cardigan is my top pick. It comes in several colors. It is sold out in a lot of sizes but I am including in this post because it will hopefully be restocked. Fit: runs true to size. I went up a size because I like my sweaters long and a bit oversized, but I could definitely wear a small in this.

If you need fall shoes and bags, here are my picks:
Sole Society Totes
Last year the Sole Society bag I bought in the Nordstrom sale held up so well and so this year I bought two! You saw this zippered black tote styled above. It will be a wardrobe staple this fall and is perfect for a fall diaper bag.
I also bought this great neutral tote ($52; $79 after sale). If you need a new fall tote, one of these might do the trick!
Shoes
For this post, I wore these slides in black and these booties and Nikes. For sizing information on these and details on all thethe shoes my sister and I bought in the sale, click here.
I hope this post and Instagram try-on session helped you shop the sale. Let me know what things you found that worked!
