I consider myself a bit of a pro when it comes to shopping at Nordstrom. After all, I’ve been a loyal customer there for as long as I can remember; I write about the retailer so often that I could tell you practically every brand it carries; I’ve maneuvered my way through the racks at its headquarters in Seattle and recently explored its cool new flagship store in New York; not to mention I can navigate its website faster than you can refresh your Insta feed, and when the retailer has a sale, you can guarantee I know the best pieces to get my hands on before they sell out. So today, I wanted to share my Nordstrom knowledge with you and point out some of the best pieces to scoop up during the fall sale, taking place between November 8 and 17 (with up to 40% off!). From the best brands to shop for affordable cashmere to elevated basics and staple jeans, scroll below to see what I’m buying.
