It’s one of the greatest times of the year—because the massive Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 has finally opened to the public. The annual sale is full of fantastic deals on top fashion brands, beauty products, and home decor. Despite the fact that COVID-19 has changed many things this year, the quality (and quantity) of the retailer’s big sale has remained the same.

Every summer, I look forward to Nordstrom’s massive annual sale because many things I know I will end up buying anyway are available for a discounted price. For two weeks (or longer if you’re a cardmember), new arrivals from popular brands are marked down for a limited time before going back up to their full price. That being said, it’s not just a sale. It’s pretty much fashion’s Black Friday.

While the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale runs through Sunday, August 30th, don’t wait to get your hands on something you want. The best things will sell out (and already have begun to!).

After browsing just about every single deal available this year, I found all of the best deals. Here are this year’s picks for the best deals from the 2020 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.

Best Women’s Clothing Deals

1. Nordstrom Moonlight Pajamas

When quarantine began, I realized I did not own pajamas, for if I did, it would be easier to differentiate my ‘day clothes’ from my ‘night clothes.’ I always wore leggings at night pre-pandemic, but once I started wearing leggings during the day, I decided I needed pajamas. This is when I caved and purchased Nordstrom’s popular Moonlight Pajamas, which have thousands of rave reviews. I purchased the short version and fell in love. They are comfortable, stylish, and perfect for lounging, and I’ve been waiting for them to be on sale to order the nightshirt and pants versions, which was the right move because now they have a cropped pants version for short people like me!

2. BP. Jogger Pants & Top (Get both as a matching set!)

Behold: A cozy matching set that comes in multiple patterns! Matching sets have been all over social media, and will most likely continue to thrive there, especially as we head into another round of pandemic fall/winter. Nordstrom’s juniors brand, BP., makes quality clothing, and at just under $25 for the pants and top, you’re getting a steal. You can also get shorts to match instead. Act fast, though. Matching sets have been a hot ticket item this year, selling out just about everywhere.

3. Wacoal Bras

People are obsessed with Wacoal bras. With hundreds—some with thousands—of reviews, you really can’t go wrong purchasing one of these, unless you buy the wrong size of course, but that’s on you. I swear by Wacoal’s strapless bra. I own a few of them and they are literally all I wear during summer when I am forced by society to wear a bra. With over 940 positive reviews, the How Perfect No-Wire Contour bra is also great and perfect for days when you have to wear a bra, but would rather not.

4. Cardigans

Cardigans are a must-have item for every season. They’re great for summer, winter, wearing summer clothes in winter, and wearing winter clothes in summer. They are honestly the most important and underrated closet essential. The Barefoot Dreams CozyChic cardigan with thousands of perfect reviews is on sale this year (you can get it in a leopard version now, too!), as well as a few other brands. 

5. Zella Leggings

Nordstrom’s fitness brand Zella carries leggings, and they’re one of the most popular items you can buy at the store. As an owner of many pairs, I can attest to them being great quality. They don’t tear or get itchy, and compared to brands like Lululemon, Athleta, and ALO, they are a fantastic price. With 4.5 stars from over 6,000 people, there’s no questioning how good these things are. I buy new pairs of Zella leggings whenever they are on sale, and this year will be no different, especially since I am always in leggings now.

6. Spanx Faux Leather Leggings

I wear my Spanx Faux Leather Leggings all the time during fall and winter. They are great to wear with sweaters while running errands, and also great to pair with a top for nights out. With just about 3,000 rave reviews on Nordstrom’s website, I am not alone in my thoughts. We’ve even covered them at Reviewed because a number of our writers and editors also swear by them. Because they are Spanx, they are flattering by nature, but they are also extremely stylish, and they come in petite and plus size. Every time I wear them, I get compliments. These might be the best thing Nordstrom sells, but that’s just my opinion.

7. Jeans

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the best time to buy new jeans—which we can always use. You’ll affordable Levi’s for an even better price as well as high-end brands you’ve been eyeing like Paige and AG finally at a reasonable price. I’m always on the hunt for Madewell jeans (they’re literally the only jeans our Director of Shopping content wears), and you can find several pairs on sale right now. It’s a miracle.

8. Natori Bras

Bras are awful. We all know this. But what is one thing that has made my bra-wearing experience slightly better? These Natori bras. The over 3,000 4.5-star reviews do not lie. They are so comfortable, even though they do have underwire. Sure, wearing a bra still sucks, but at least there are some brands out there that make it suck less. Thank you, Natori.

9. Hanky Panky Underwear

If you’re looking for underwear that is high quality, stylish, and doesn’t feel like it’s actually there, look no further than Hanky Panky. I’ve tried buying cheap and more affordable underwear, but they always rip. Hanky Panky underwear, though? It doesn’t rip. It doesn’t become gross over time. Not to mention, it is glorious to wear. For years, I wouldn’t buy these because of the price tag, but now, I always buy them—but only when they’re on sale. The regular rise thongs are my favorite, but depending on your underwear preference, there are options galore. Okay, now that you all know what underwear I wear, let’s move on.

Get the Hanky Panky Regular Rise Lace Thong for $16.90 (Originally $22)

10. Spanx Underwear

If you haven’t dabbled in Spanx underwear yet, I encourage you to do so while it’s on sale. I own these and think they are great for when you want a little extra coverage, but you also want to be able to breathe and not feel constrained (one day I wore heavy-duty Spanx for twelve hours and felt like I was wearing a giant elastic around my stomach; these are about one hundred times more comfortable). Nearly 580 reviewers agree with me that they are a great purchase, so I am not alone on Spanx fan island. I am on this island with a lot of other people, too. Come join us.

Get the Spanx Undie-tectable Lace Hi-Hipster Panties for $15.90 (Originally $24)

11. Caslon V-Neck T-Shirt

Short-sleeve tops are essential for all seasons. Wear them in winter with a cardigan and wear them in summer with shorts. This Caslon v-neck t-shirt is amazing. I own them in multiple colors and styles, and continue to stock up when they are on sale. Others agree that they are a great buy, as they have over 2,100 solid reviews.

Get the Caslon Rounded V-Neck T-Shirt for $12.90 (Originally $25)

12. Socks

Whether you’re looking for no-show socks or cozy socks, you might not be able to find ones you owned (the dryer probably ate them, it’s fine), but you can find great deals on all types of new socks during Nordstrom’s annual sale. Zella’s no-show socks are the only sock of such kind that do not fall off my heels as I walk (or pedal on a stationary bike). With over 4 stars from over 340 reviews, I cannot be the only one who appreciates these socks. 

13. Sports Bras

Whether your preferred exercise is running, yoga, or kickboxing, you need a good sports bra. The Zella Studio Lite bras are ideal for more low-impact activities like yoga and barre, and come highly rated with more than 300 reviews and a 4.4-star rating. Plus, they go great with Zella leggings (see No. 2). For more support, check out the Yogi Convertible Sports Bra from Natori. It has hidden underwire, making it ideal for those of us who have bigger busts, and more than 300 Nordstrom shoppers also love them.

14. Matching Sports Bra and Leggings Set

Matching sets aren’t just limited to sweats. Workouts feel a little more cohesive when wearing a set and Zella’s Studio set in simple and stylish—not to mention affordable. As we’ve said before, we’re obsessed with Zella’s inexpensive, yet quality athletic clothes, so it’s a no brainer. You can get the set in black and pink silver—all for just over $60, which is one of the cheapest workout sets we’ve ever seen.

15. Patagonia and The North Face Coats

Even though it’s scorching outside, it’s time to start thinking about getting a winter coat. Why? Because they’re on major sale! You’ll find this popular The North Face parka for nearly $100 off, which is a total steal and it will keep you warm and dry all winter long. Two of Patagonia’s best-selling jackets are on sale, too: Thermogreen-Insulated Jacket and the coveted Better Sweater Jacket.

16. Rails Hunter Plaid Shirt

Rails shirts are so soft and cozy. I became a believer after renting one of these shirts via Rent the Runway. Now, I want to live in one of them. You will too.

Get the Rails Hunter Plaid Shirt for $99.90 (Originally $158)

17. Alo Leggings

Alo leggings are seriously amazing. Not only are celebrities constantly spotted in them, but one of our editors (a yoga instructor!!) is obsessed with them. They’re buttery soft, come in stylish colors and styles, and are built-it for withstanding even your sweatiest workouts. The only qualm is their $100-plus price tag, but thankfully you can score them for reasonable prices with this sale. The Alo Airlift Leggings that our editor swears by are included in the sale as well as the cool High Waist Moto Leggings, which have earned a 4.2-star rating from over 200 reviews. Snag them while you can!

18. Boots and Booties

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the absolute best time to purchase boots for fall and winter. New, designer shoes enter the market at unbeatable prices before going back up to their regular cost. I use this as a time to build my collection of quality boots that span seasons. Chelsea boots for casual everyday use, heeled booties for nights out and fancy days, white booties—which were sold out last year, but are back for this year’s anniversary sale, Blondo booties for quality, waterproof goodness, the list goes on. These are our picks for the top boots on sale for the 2020 Nordstrom sale.

Chelsea Boots

Heeled Booties

White Boots

Basic Booties

Knee High Boots

19. Tory Burch Loafers

Tory Burch is known for its iconic sandals in the summer, but its loafers are just as trendy are perfect for fall attire. Adorned with the medallion logo, these shoes are available in four different colors for over $100 off.

Get the Tory Burch Leigh Loafer for $159.90 (Save $268)

20. Nike and Adidas Sneakers

Nike and Adidas make “cool girl” sneakers that are both functional and fashionable, like Nike’s popular Blazer Low SE Sneaker. You’ll also find running shoes like the Adidas UltraBoost Running Shoe (a favorite of Meghan Markle’s!) that nearly 4,000 reviewers can attest to their comfort and style.

21. Veja Sneakers

Vejas sneakers are one of Meghan Markle’s favorites (she’s been spotted in the V-10s all the time). Now may be the time to buy them. The sleek sneakers—which are rarely ever on sale—have a cult following thanks to their minimalist design and comfortable fit and the fact that they’re made with sustainable materials.

22. Uggs

When I think of cozy footwear my mind always drifts to Uggs. From the slippers to warm, fuzzy boots, you really can’t go wrong with these lounging shoes. Every year, my mom buys a new pair that she’ll wear daily to keep her feet toasty from the cold A/C. We’ll definitely be grabbing a pair of the fleece-lined boots.    

23. Madewell Shoes

I’m obsessed with Madewell shoes. They’re minimalist, high-quality, and relatively affordable. You can find its classic mule shoe (which has over 100 reviews and a 4.2-star rating) for less than $50 right now. That’s a steal.

Get the Madewell Remi Mule for $49.90 (Originally $88)

24. Hunter Boots

Hunter rain boots have garnered popularity for their minimalistic riding style and have been seen on the likes of celebrities such as Kate Moss and Alexa Chung. Plus, they actually live up to the hype. When we put these rain boots to the test, we found that they didn’t let any water sneak through, were easy to wipe clean, and are comfortable to walk in. You can score several of Hunter boots on sale, and I highly recommend snatching them up before the rainy season.

25. Supergas

Kate Middleton has been sporting her Superga Cotu sneaks for years (since 2016, to be exact). You’ll find slip-on versions of the popular crisp, white shoes on sale at Nordstrom. And the Duchess isn’t the only celebrity obsessed with the crisp white sneaks, which are made of breathable 100% cotton. Other stars who have been spotted with the Supergas include Jessica Alba, Jennifer Anniston, Emma Roberts, Alexa Chung, and Emma Watson (just to name a few).

26. Hiking Boots

Who said hiking boots were limited to just hiking? These sleek ones from Timberland and Blondo are edgy and function. They’re designed with a tough sole for walking around town, and make for an Instagramable nature walk. Plus, they’re both waterproof, which is essential for upcoming cold, raining weather.

27. Kate Spade Pendant Necklace

There are a lot of things people love from Kate Spade, but one of the most popular is this personalized pendant necklace. Engraved with the initial of your choice, it’s dainty and elegant—perfect for both everyday wear and special occasions.

Get the Kate Spade Initial Pendant Necklace for $24.90 (Originally $44)

28. Tory Burch Bags

When it comes to women’s handbags and shoes, few designers are as iconic as Tory Burch. A wide variety of her purses are included in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, including crossbody bags, totes, and clutches, all of which are emblazoned with the recognizable circle logo. I own a Tory Burch clutch and get compliments on it every time I take it to an event.

The Madewell Transport Tote has long been on our list of our favorite things to buy at Nordstrom. Not only is Meghan Markle a fan of it, but our Shopping Director, Samantha Matt, owns it as well and loves that it’s the perfect size for everything from commuting to traveling. While the plain brown version isn’t part of the sale, you can get the leather tote in a pretty embroidered style or in the slightly smaller spotted style.

30. T-Shirts

If you’re a firm believer that you can never have too many T-shirts, you’re in luck. There are the higher-end tees (like this crewneck from Robert Barakett with over 400 five-star reviews) along with the more budget-friendly options (like this four-pack from the Nordstrom Men’s Shop that people rave is one of the softest they’ve worn).

31. Jogger Pants

Joggers are arguably the most comfortable pants to ever exist. So we’re thrilled to see there are a bunch of them in the Nordstrom sale. Whether it’s the slim-fit Zella joggers or the cozy fleece ones from Adidas, they’re the types of pants you can wear for everything from working out (hence the name joggers) to kicking back in front of the TV on a lazy weekend morning.

32. Athletic Shorts

Nordstrom is a gold mine of men’s activewear, especially athletic shorts. Our shopping director’s husband swears by these ones from Zella because they’re good quality and fit well. Other popular selects include these knit shorts from Adidas which reviewers say are breathable, soft, and comfy (and even have pockets!).

33. Jeans

Every man needs a good pair of jeans in his wardrobe. If you’ve been searching for the right ones, you’re in luck—there’s plenty available during Nordstrom’s sale. Choose from designer denim, like these classic cut jeans from 7 For All Mankind, or go with a more budget-friendly yet still highly-rated pair from one of the best-known denim brands (Levi’s, of course). 

34. Patagonia Jackets

Finally—Patagonia’s wildly popular jackets are on sale and we can’t wait to scoop up a few for ourselves (and all the men in our lives, for that matter). One of the top picks is the Better Sweater, which is the one thing Patagonia is most well-known for. Lightweight yet cozy and lined with the softest fleece, it’s everything you want in a jacket (and more).

35. Patagonia Vest

Patagonia does more than just jackets (see above). The outdoor apparel brand also makes a puffer vest that comes very highly-rated. Fans like that it’s windproof and waterproof, that it’s made of recycled materials, and that it has a drawcord hem that you can easily adjust to keep warmth in and cold out.

36. The North Face Coats

Braving the freezing cold winter weather isn’t so bad when you’re bundled up in a North Face coat. Known for being great quality, durable, and super well-insulated, North Face coats are with spending a little extra on. The heavier down jacket is ideal for frigid temps while the waterproof DryVent coat will get you through those wet wintry days dry and cozy. 

37. Adidas Zip Hoodie

38. Barbour Coats

If Barbour coats are good enough for the royal family (a.k.a. Prince William and Prince Harry), they’re certainly good enough for the rest of us, right? And they’re actually affordable, especially when they’re on sale as they are right now. People like that the quilted jackets are high quality and, as the royals have proven, never go out of style.

39. Vineyard Vines

Preppy prints, pastels, polos—all things that make Vineyard Vines such a beloved brand and all things that are included in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. You can find classic collared shirts in solid colors and patterns like colorful plaid, soft cotton polos that you’ll want to live in all summer long, and pullovers that are made for breezy evenings.

Or these more formal slacks made of Italian wool that reviewers say fit well and comfortably.

One of the most important things I’ve learned in my 30 years on this Earth is to use a good moisturizer if you want good skin. Unfortunately, this did not really sink in (skincare joke) until I was in my late 20s and it was too late to save myself from all the wrinkles I acquired thanks to smiling too much as a youth (my mom said this is why I have wrinkles). La Mer moisturizer is the cream of the crop (another skincare joke, I’m not sorry) when it comes to moisturizers. One day I hope to join the 2,800 reviewers who gave it 5 stars, but until then, I will dream. For the Anniversary Sale, you can grab La Mer products for amazing prices. Proceed with caution.
