Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020
everything you need to know and all of my top picks.
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has been my favorite sale event for as long as I can remember. This year, the sale begins on August 4th for certain Nordstrom card members and runs until August 30th (I’ve posted the full sale schedule below). I am SO excited to share my top picks from each sale category with you all!
If you’re new to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and still aren’t sure what all the hype is about, here it is: Each year, the sale features BRAND NEW items for the fall season at incredibly discounted prices for a limited time. The sale includes clothing, jewelry, beauty products, handbags, shoes, AND home decor! I’ve found this sale to be the best way to purchase must-have items for the fall season without over-spending. This year, I’m sharing the items I absolutely love that are on MAJOR sale (and that usually do not go on sale during the fall season)… giving you all quality not quantity!
This blog post has everything you need to know about the sale, including when you can start shopping the sale and what items are selling fast as the sale progresses. I will be sharing my overall top picks from the sale, as well as my top picks for each category included in the sale. Check out all the details below!

Shop Coats + Jackets Picks
1. Topshop Faux Leather Jacket - Sale: $49.90, After Sale: $88.00. This is my favorite leather jacket because it looks amazing with any outfit and is super affordable compared to similar styles.

I recommend sizing 1 size up if you plan to wear this over sweaters during the colder months.
