This Week's Office Chatter Is All About the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale—Here's Every Item Editors Are Snapping Up
I've been shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale since before I could walk. I have vivid memories of my mom pushing me around the kids' shoe department while I eagerly awaited the balloon the salespeople would give me when my mom purchased a pair of shoes. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale was a symbol of summer, but it also meant I was about to score an incredible back-to-school wardrobe. I got the balloon and the shoes, and my mom got to save money. Was this the start of girl math? Flash-forward two decades, and I've found a community of coworkers who are just as excited about this annual sale as I am. Right now, our office water-cooler talk is all about Levi's denim, Reformation footwear, and so much more. To sneak a peek at four of my fellow editors' top five sale finds, keep reading.
"The best time to buy denim is during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. These Levi's jeans are already under $150, so get your wallets ready for when they dip below $100! I already know I'll wear these with heels, sneakers, flats, and sandals, so prepare to see me style them in a variety of ways this summer." — Aniyah Morinia, senior editor
"I've always considered watches to be a major style indicator. They add a sense of intentionality to every look and feel timeless, which is why they're the perfect accessory to invest in during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. The sleek leather strap and gold face are classic yet modern." — Morinia
"Never underestimate the power of a good trouser in your repertoire. If your current styles aren't fitting right, it's time to pick out a new pair. I like to choose the best size for me based on whether I'd like to wear it more high-waisted or low-rise." — Sierra Mayhew, fashion editor
"Since we don't know when a suitcase this good will go on sale again, we take action now. After hearing all my friends rave about Béis, I'm using this sale as an opportunity to try it out. I'm most excited about the 360 wheels for navigating the cobblestone streets on my next European summer trip." — Mayhew
"If you've read my latest articles, you might know that I did a whole feature story on how silk shirts are trending. They're on the come-up, especially this dashing pink one. Style them with the white jeans above and a good pair of pumps, and you have yourself the perfect look for summer nights." — Mayhew
"I've neglected my sleepwear drawer long enough. From here on out, I’ll be swapping my oversize band tees and boxer-style shorts for matching sets. This subtle change in wardrobe has single-handedly upgraded my nighttime routine. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale just so happens to be my favorite time of year to shop for pjs. I've got my eye on this satin set." — Josephine Hadjiloucas, assistant shopping editor
"I'm Gen Z, and my sister is a millennial. We are in constant debate about whether skinny jeans are truly back. Her love for high-waisted, skin-tight denim is far beyond saving, but as a devotee to baggy jeans, I've convinced her to step outside of her comfort zone. The AG Ex-Boyfriend Mid Rise Slouchy Slim Jeans are the perfect compromise: slim but relaxed, and most importantly, marked down." — Hadjiloucas
"I used to be a crewneck hater, but after giving it a second chance, I've found a silver lining: It's just so easy to style. You can't go wrong with a pair of jeans, shorts, or even a midi skirt. This cotton-blend crewneck from Nordstrom is exactly what you want in your summer wardrobe. It's reliable, affordable, and well-fitted." — Hadjiloucas
"Of all the shoes I run into on the subway, the New Balance 327 sneaker is the most frequent. That tells me it's a well-loved commuter shoe built to move with you throughout the day. It's simple enough to be worn on casual Fridays at the office or with jeans on the weekends while grabbing brunch with friends." — Hadjiloucas
"If you've even mildly considered trying the capri-leggings trend, I highly encourage you to start with this pair (or add them to your collection if you're already a fan). Zella leggings have a cult following for a reason, and this is the perfect lightweight pair that you can dress up or down." — Allyson Payer, senior editor
