The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is filled with thousands of amazing deals. I'm talking about discounts on new arrivals, including summer finds and colder-weather selects to prep that fall and winter wardrobe. I'm particularly impressed with the assortment of affordable items. On that note, I uncovered quite a range of pieces that look high-end thanks to forward and modern design details but ring in under $100.
Below, you'll find budget-friendly tailoring options that look triple the price, designer-looking denim, elevated shoe silhouettes that will garner tons of compliments, expensive-looking basics, and more.
Keep scrolling to shop affordable Nordstrom Anniversary Sale picks that look like luxury but cost far less.
