First Look of the 2025 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

These are the items that may go fast and we think are worth grabbing for closet essentials, gift ideas, and your home!

On Cloud Sneakers – This popular brand is back in the sale for both men and women. Hooray!

MOTHER Denim – Everyone loves a good pair of jeans, and this year’s selection does NOT disappoint! My favorite MOTHER brand jeans are in the sale, as well as AG. 

Athletic Skirts & Dresses – So many cute ones up to 40% off! These Zella skirts sold out early last year and this year the Free People Movement dress is great. There is also a long Zella dress that’s cute for errands in 3 colors. Don’t miss the under $60 Spanx skirt that’s new this year!

Free People Movement – The popular shorts for teen girls are included in the sale for $27 in different colors –  and will sell quickly! Lots of other cute FPM activewear included in the sale this year here!

Bombas: So excited they are in the sale this year! I love this colorful 6-pack set that would be so great as a gift, too!

Rag & Bone brand – Lots of cute things from this brand including jeans and boots but don’t miss the sneakers!

BEIS Carry On Travel Set – Don’t miss the BEIS carry on roller and duffle bag that slides on top (and backpack!). Sold separately, together they would be so cute for a Christmas gift, too!

Boll and Brand Sheets and Bedding – Always so popular in the Nordstrom Sale! If you’ve been wanting to try this popular brand now is a good time!

Apple Watch Bands – So many nice ones this year including a gift set for women and a $50 set for men. 

Westman Atelier sets – NEW this year is this under $40 petite set of their two most popular products. Cute for gifts!

Cashmere Gifts – This cashmere travel wrap scarf is like the $300 one I love but for just $100. Great for gifts for so many. Also love this VINCE cashmere wrap.

My Favorite Makeup Mirror – If you’ve been wanting one, now is the time. As soon as you get one you will ask yourself why you didn’t buy one years ago!

NEST candles and diffusers – Great deals here! Stock up for thank you, housewarming, and Christmas gifts. Love the pink diffuser set!

UGGs – Stock up on slippers for the whole family – think Christmas! This new style will sell out quick!

Barefoot Dreams Throw Blankets – Great for gifts as well!
