Hi friends! It’s that time of year where the Nordstrom Sale completely takes over your Instagram feed for the next 2-3 weeks. I know it can be overwhelming, annoying and stressful. This year I am approaching the sale in a completely different light.
This will be my third year shopping the sale as a “blogger” and fourth year in general. I can comfortably report that in my opinion the sale is overrated. It is definitely hyped up way too much, but I get it. Most of the bloggers you see sharing the sale probably blog full-time. This sale is one of the ways they make their income. For me, I blog as a hobby and literally make no money, lol. I don’t mind being honest and spilling the real tea.
I do not think this sale is worth putting yourself into debt over. I do not want anyone to feel pressure to shop the sale. You’re not missing out on too much! Also, with everything going on with COVID I think it is important to spend more wisely.
If you are someone who normally shops designer brands, then this sale is for you! You are buying Fall 2020 season styles at a discounted rate. This is great for people who like designer bags, high end jeans, and booties. The sale is also great for getting ‘basics’ at a lower price. Usually, I will pick up a cardigan, get a few plain tees, and then bottoms of some sort. If you have been wanting Spanx Faux Leather Leggings, this is definitely the time to score those!
Other than that, I personally feel you can find booties, jeans and sweaters at TJMaxx, Target, Abercrombie, Amazon, or local boutiques for much cheaper. Not to mention, a lot of boutiques usually come out with DUPs on products you see in the sale anyway.
I’m breaking up this post into three sections. First, I will share what I plan to purchase. Then, I will show you all the items I like but I am not necessarily getting. Lastly, I will have product links for items I already own from previous sales. To shop, simply click the photo! Please Note: You will be unable to add anything to your cart until it is your time to shop. You can add things to your Wish List though! I do politely ask if you plan to purchase anything you see in this post that you use one of my links. I do make a small commission at no extra cost to you! It also helps me figure out what does well/ what you like to see. If you have any questions or want additional links just message me!
