These 2024 Trends Are Still Chic, Cool, and Cheap Thanks to Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale

We're more than halfway into 2024, and as a fashion editor, it's in my nature to look back at the last seven months and see which trends have actually lasted and which ones have faded into oblivion. While I prefer to keep my wardrobe muted, classic, and timeless, I'm all about buying into a great, long-lasting trend. Thanks to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, it's never been easier to add some of 2024's biggest trends into your cart without sticker shock. From now until August 4, thousands of the retailer's best-selling items are on sale, meaning my credit card already knows the drill when I pull it out after scrolling on the dedicated Nordstrom sale pages for hours.
Below, shop four can't-miss 2024 trends you can find on sale now, including controversial jeans and classic ballet flats French women swear by.
Wide-Leg Jeans
Ballet Flats
Quiet Luxury Finds
Sublime Accessories
