The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is coming! This is my favorite sale of the entire year. The reason this sale is the main topic on your IG feed right now is that it’s different than most sales. In a typical sale, you get a discount on items that have already been in stock for awhile and retailers are trying to clear their shelves. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a preview for fall items! So they are discounted before they are in stock.
This sale is the perfect time to stock up on boots, sweaters, denim and athleisure. This is also one of the few times that higher priced or designer items go on sale. A strategy is necessary for this sale, but I’m happy to help you along the way! I’ll be sharing my past favorites from the sale, highlighting some great items this year and keeping you in the loop of what I am purchasing!
You can follow me in the LiketoKnow.it app (username @helonheelsblog) or Instagram for daily updates. I will also be posting larger posts on my blog every day leading up to the sale.
You can also browse the preview now. New items are being added every day and you can go ahead and add your must-haves to your wish list.
Here are a few things you need to know!

Go in with a plan!
Buy your top items first! Some things sell out very quickly. Go in ready to purchase your top items. Immediately add those to your cart and checkout. Then you can go back and browse other items if you are still shopping. You don’t want to miss out on the number 1 thing you wanted because you were contemplating adding another sweater.
Also, have an idea of what you are looking for when it comes to your additional items. Are you shopping athleisure, boots, denim, etc? Having an idea of what your closet needs before going into the sale will make it a little less overwhelming. Use the preview to your advantage and add items to your wish list.
Follow along with your favorite bloggers. Everyone is talking about this right now. I know it can be a little annoying, but every blogger has a different take and a different style. They can give you inspiration for how to style different outfits. I will be posting on Instagram, liketoknow.it and on my blog with my favorite items.
I’m excited about this sale! Fall is my favorite season and this sale always feels like the kick-off to fall! What are you shopping for and how can I help you?
