It's time to prepare your shopping cart—and your wallet—for Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale. The blockbuster event easily takes the cake as Nordstrom's biggest sale of the year, with thousands of items discounted. But some of the best finds sell out within hours, so you'll want to come prepared. Luckily, Marie Claire's shopping editors have got you covered with everything you need to know ahead of the event.
Whether you're in the market for summer basics, a buzzy beauty tool, or essentials for your next vacation, Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale will have something for you. Even better: This year, the retailer is adding 50 new brands to the sale (!).
When Is The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2024?
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens for Icon cardholders on July 9, then for Ambassadors and Influencers on July 10 and July 11, respectively.
On July 15, the sale opens for everyone. The deals run through August 4, but fair warning—the best finds are going to go quick.
Which Brands Will Be On Sale?
Some of team Marie Claire's favorite brands are included in the sale, like Nike, Farm Rio, Free People, Levi's, Rag & Bone, and many more. Plenty of designer pieces will be included, from AllSaints and Veronica Beard to Mansur Gavriel and Kate Spade. On the beauty front, you can expect deals on Bobbi Brown, Augustinus Bader, La Mer, Oribe, Supergoop!, and Living Proof, just to name a few.
You can preview all of the sale offerings on Nordstrom's website.
Best Early Vacation Deals on Nordstrom
Marie Claire's Fashion Commerce Editor Julia Marzovilla tested these linen pants and fell in love. They're soft and versatile and can easily be dressed up or down, making them a must-have on vacation.
Vacation calls for at least one nice dinner out, so you'll want to pack this pretty number. It's easy to accessorize to your heart's content and you'll be comfortable all night long.
Simple basics like this are a must-have in your suitcase. You can mix and match this tank with the rest of the pieces you packed, no matter they occasion. Heading to dinner? Pair it with a flowy skirt and heels. Just shopping around town? Throw it on with denim shorts and slides.
A slip skirt is another wardrobe basic I always make sure to pack when I'm heading on vacation. It can easily take you from day to night with a simple change of shoes.
Matching sets are the key to optimizing your luggage space. Wear these breezy pieces together for an easy beach cover-up or mix and match with the other separates in your bag.
This may look like your basic LBD but once you take a look at the risqué back, you'll see why it's deserving of some hype. The open back will not only keep you cool, but offers a sexy peek of skin for nights out.
Best Early Shoe Deals on Nordstrom
Need a fresh pair of pool slides? These Crocs were practically made with pool days in mind. They're next-level comfortable and waterproof, plus come in fun shades like this mint green and a soft purple.
Chunky sandals like these instantly add an edge to your look. With the cushiony footbed and studded straps, they're as comfortable as they are cool.
Simple, sleek sandals will go far in your wardrobe. These pair well with just about anything you could throw on, not to mention they feel luxurious (but are under $100!).
Give your ballet flats a summery update with this raffia pair. Reviews say they're as comfortable as can be and this beige and brown color combo will pair perfectly with all of your summer dresses.
Depending on your destination, you could get away with only packing these sleek sandals. They'll elevate all of your casual looks and they work just as well for nice dinners out in the town.
Best Early Loungewear Deals on Nordstrom
If you haven't tried Spanx's AirEssentials line yet, does yourself a favor and add these shorts to your cart. They're made of the softest, coziest fabric, yet they still have a luxurious athletic feel. I could easily spend days lounging in these shorts.
This cute matching set is just what hot sleepers need to get through the summer. They're light as air with a luxurious fine ribbed knit, plus they look so much more put-together than a baggy T-shirt.
Black leggings will never get old, but for summer, opt for this eye-catching pair. They offer great support for all of your workouts but are still comfortable enough to lounge in. Make it a set with the matching top, which is also on sale.
Sleeping in these pajamas will feel nothing short of luxurious. Made from 100 percent silk, this cute set is breathable and will keep you cool on the hottest of nights. The best part? They're machine washable!
If you're anything like me and are freezing cold on every flight, you'll want these sweatpants in your travel wardrobe. They feel like floating on a cloud (hence the name) and the split hem makes them so much cooler.
Best Early Skincare Deals on Nordstrom
Two must-have products in your skincare routine: Sunscreen and retinol. This set has you covered around the clock. Use the gentle retinol cream at night to reduce the look of wrinkles and fine lines, then apply the hydrating sunscreen in the morning to keep your skin protected.
This moisturizer does so much more than hydrate dry skin. Thanks to hero ingredients like vitamin E and DMAE, this also works to lift saggy skin and to even out your skin tone. Reviews say it's well worth the price, too.
Do yourself a favor and take a look at the before and after photos of this TikTok-famous line. These creams are a facelift in a bottle, working in as little as five minutes to reduce the look of fine lines, wrinkles, eye bags, and pores.
As we get older, collagen production in our skin slows down, leading to a sagging appearance. This serum works to reverse that by boosting skin's natural collagen-building power, which in turn plumps fine lines and smooths skin.
There's nothing worse than having your makeup pill over your sunscreen, however, you can rest assured it will apply flawlessly on top of this top-rated find. It's hydrating, smoothing, and lightweight, providing the perfect base for your foundation.
Best Early Makeup Deals on Nordstrom
Few matte lipstick formulas are as creamy or hydrating as this cult-favorite find from Armani. It's is a favorite among celebrities, experts, and editors alike for its high-pigmented color and long-lasting finish.
This concealer will likely be a new favorite in your makeup rotation. It promises medium to full coverage with a lightweight feel and long-lasting, crease-free finish.
Bobbi Brown products are all about letting your natural features shine through, as with this creamy foundation formula. It has an incredibly lightweight, soft-as-air finish; most people won't be able to tell you're wearing makeup.
With all of the benefits of Perricone MD's original Face Finishing & Firming moisturizer, this one adds a slight wash of color that evens skin tone. With added SPF 30, this is the tinted moisturizer to reach for on no-makeup makeup days.
Best Early Haircare Deals on Nordstrom
It's not every day the Dyson products go on sale, so take advantage while it's still in stock. Dyson's hair straightener tops our list of the best of the best with its ability to dry and straighten hair at the same time and with minimal heat damage.
Now's your chance to get a top-of-the-line blow dryer for 20 percent off. This fan-favorite from Shark dries and smooths hair incredibly fast and without any heat damage. If you have curly or coily hair, opt for the on-sale set that includes a diffuser attachment.
This scrub does double duty by gently exfoliating and hydrating both your scalp and body. Reviewers love the refreshing feel this scrub provides and say the minty coconut scent is great, too.
