The Top Things My Daughter and I Want from Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
Last week my daughter, Alexandra and I stopped into our local Nordstrom to look for sneakers. But we decided to wait for the 2026 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. If you need certain basic/replacement staples like running shoes, slippers, fresh pajamas or beauty product splurges …now is a very good time!
It’s really why I got a Nordstrom credit card and became a Nordy club member (that and for the rewards you can earn and free basic alterations).
When? The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, is July 18, 2026 at 12:01am ET for everyone.
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale key dates
July 14-17: Icon early access shopping begins.
July 15-17: Ambassador Cardmember early access shopping begins.
July 16-17: Influencer Cardmember early access shopping begins. (When I can shop).
July 18-Aug. 9: Anniversary sale shopping starts for everyone.
The merchandise is new and goes back to regular price after the sale. Some items will definitely sell out quickly as I’ve noticed for several years.

Annie and Cindy are also sharing their recommendations from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, too. Here are my top picks.
Lace Up Ballet Flat Adidas
Sale: $89.99 After sale price $110.00 Alexandra wants to grab these stylish sneakers to take with her to New York on business next week.
On Cloud 6 Sneaker
Women Sale: $109.99 After sale price $160.00 I could really use new ones and I like that they slip on and the pale pink is subtle.
These sneakers are good for cross training and lightweight for travel. Hopefully, they won’t sell out before I can grab them.

Let’s see what Cindy and Annie want to buy at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale:
You always find good things! How fun that you get to shop with Alexandra! xx
Is the Barbour jacket you have on the same as what is in the anniversary sale? I seem to have missed it at Nordstrom, so was hoping to find it elsewhere.
It looks exactly the same to me…I think its a classic style. My husband bought it for me in London at a department store there.
Hi Mary Ann! Your dress is very cute and you might want to tell your readers that since it is sold out they might want to check out Quince. They have the same dress(different colors) for $69. I have one and love it!
Oh that Quince one looks nice! I don’t think its a basketweave linen like the Faherty one…but I like it.
I have that Zella jacket and it is fabulous! You look so cute in knee length dresses! I have those towels on my list as well. What a great deal!
