Okay, it’s time for Round Two of try-ons from this year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! (Don’t miss my #NSale Try-Ons: Round One that I posted on Wednesday!) These items range from splurge-worthy to budget-friendly, and everything in between. Links and details are below each picture.
Unfortunately, popular items are selling out, but hopefully there will be restocks coming in soon, as people start making returns.
PRO TIP: If you put an item on your Wish List that has sold out, you should get a restock notification via the Nordstrom App when it comes in, if you have that feature turned on. Unfortunately, it does not appear that there’s a way to add the item once it has sold out in your size and color preference.
2024 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Try-On Haul
SIZING NOTES: I’m 5’5″ and I usually wear a small or medium in tops and dresses, a 29 in jeans and pants, and a size 8 shoe. Gifted items are indicated by c/o; everything else I purchased myself.
Theory Cable Knit Wool & Cashmere Sweater in Palomino
also wearing: FRAME Le Easy Flare (29) // Franco Sarto Alexandria Bootie (8) // Jenny Bird Hidden Heart Hoop Earrings in Silver
Theory Cable Knit Wool & Cashmere Sweater (XS) // This luxe cable knit sweater is so luxe and soft and gorgeous, but it runs big. I’m actually wearing the XS here. The quality is amazing, it’s the perfect shade of camel, and I love how the slightly flared sleeves give this classic sweater a modern update. Even though it’s 90% wool, it isn’t itchy or scratchy at all. Best of all, it’s still in stock!
The FRAME jeans and Franco Sarto Alexandria Booties I’m wearing are also still well-stocked, and I love and highly recommend both. I would call these jeans more of a bootcut than a flare. The fabric is lightweight and stretchy and comfortable, and they have a generous fit. I would try a size down, if you run in between. They’re nice for wearing now and later.
And these boots are extremely comfortable; they have a very soft shaft, and I love the streamlined look with the snipped toe. The low heel is walkable, and it also has an interesting shape. These boots will look great with ankle-length jeans, to show them off better. They run true to size.
Halogen Johnny Collar Shell in Rich Black
also wearing: FRAME Le Easy Flare (29) // Franco Sarto Alexandria Bootie (8) // Jenny Bird Hidden Heart Hoop Earrings in Silver
Halogen Johnny Collar Shell (S) // I almost bypassed this in the store because I grabbed my usual size small, and when I went to try it on, I couldn’t even pull it on over my head. But then when I was shopping yesterday, I grabbed it in the medium and told myself to give it a try because it’s such a good top for date nights and such this summer and into fall when it’s still warm.
It definitely runs small, but once I got the medium on, I decided that I really like it. The fabric is kind of thick, almost a scuba fabric, but it has a nice shape, and I love the combination of the sleeveless with the Johnny collar.
1.STATE Crewneck Sweater in Taupe
also wearing: FRAME Le Easy Flare (29) // Franco Sarto Alexandria Bootie (8)
1.STATE Crewneck Sweater (S) // I love the boxy shape and fluted arms on this sweater, and also the way the sleeves are designed. (I hate drop shoulders, and it seems like so many have them in the sale this year.) Unfortunately, this sweater is low inventory at the moment, and I think I need to size down to the XS. I’m going to keep an eye out for restocks.
Caslon Long Sleeve Thermal Polo in Beige Oatmeal Light Heather
also wearing: FRAME Le Easy Flare (29) // Franco Sarto Alexandria Bootie (8)
Caslon Long Sleeve Thermal Polo (S) // This is such a good transitional piece, I like how they combined a Johnny collar with the thermal fabric. It’s a great price too, but alas, it is selling out. It’s true to size.
Free People Sandre Cable Stitch Pullover
also wearing: FRAME Le Easy Flare (29) // Franco Sarto Alexandria Bootie (8)
Free People Sandre Cable Stitch Cotton Pullover (M) // This was on my Wish List from the Preview, but the for some reason I didn’t seek it out when I was shopping in-store on Tuesday, nor did I order it. When I went in yesterday to get them to take the security tag off the Faherty stripe sweater (which is still well-stocked, by the way), I saw this and grabbed it.
The details in the knit are so pretty, and I really love that wide neckline, and how it looks from the back. Unfortunately, I grabbed the medium instead of the small, and it is now sold out in the ivory, but I ordered the Olive Tapenade. I also ordered the Take Me Home Cotton Sweater in Cherry.
WAYF Kai Rib Cap Sleeve Turtleneck Sweater
also wearing: FRAME Le Easy Flare (29) // Vince Cecila Crisscross Sandal (8)
WAYF Kai Rib Cap Sleeve Turtleneck Sweater (M) // This is another item that I grabbed when I was in the store yesterday, and I love it, but it runs small. And sadly, it’s sold out online already.
Vince Cecila Crisscross Sandal in Catalina Blush
Vince Cecila Crisscross Sandal (8) // These sandals are gorgeous and also very comfortable. They’re the ones I’m wearing with the jeans above, but I grabbed this pic from my photo shoot yesterday so you can see them better. They look just as good with dresses as they do with jeans.
I love a Vince sandal, the leather is so soft, and there’s a good amount of cushion in the footbed. The 3″ heel is what I’d call a chunky kitten heel; it has good stability but still aligns with the current trends. They also come in black and flax (a creamy white) and they’re fully stocked!
KUT From The Kloth Ana High Waist Flare Jeans
also wearing: AllSaints Stevie (M) // Blondo Emmalyn Waterproof Bootie (8.5)
KUT From The Kloth Ana High Waist Flare Jeans (8) // If you’re looking for budget-friendly flare jeans, this pair is for you! These were the only pair in my store, and they happened to be an 8, so I grabbed them, but they are a little big. I would say to get your true size for KUT denim (which for me is a 6.)
Caslon Crop Utility Jacket
also wearing: AllSaints Stevie Crop Tee (M) // KUT From The Kloth Ana High Waist Flare Jeans (8) // Blondo Emmalyn Waterproof Bootie (8.5)
Caslon Crop Utility Jacket (S) // This is another item that was on my radar during the Preview, but for some reason I didn’t purchase in my initial orders. I grabbed it yesterday, and I’m SO glad I did. This jacket is the perfect lightweight fall jacket.
I love the cropped style, it’s definitely the way to update your utility jacket for fall 2024. So happy to tell you that it’s also still very well-stocked in all 4 colors! I really love this navy. It’s true to size, with a bit of a generous fit. There’s definitely room for layering underneath.
KUT From The Kloth Kyra Pleated Stretch Cotton Corduroy Jacket in Cream
also wearing: AllSaints Stevie Crop Tee (M) // KUT From The Kloth Ana High Waist Flare Jeans (8) // Blondo Emmalyn Waterproof Bootie (8.5)
KUT From The Kloth Kyra Pleated Stretch Cotton Corduroy Jacket (M) // I’m not big into puff sleeves, so I didn’t intend to purchase this, but a few of you asked for it specifically, so I grabbed it when I was at the store yesterday. I eyed it up and wisely chose the medium because it is definitely a size-up situation.
That said, it is very flattering on, it has a really nice structure to it, and lots of fun details like the buttons on the sleeves, the seaming through the back, etc. The puff sleeves are very subtle, too, but it’s still a little too precious for my personal taste. That said, I think a lot of you will love it. I am crossing my fingers that it gets restocked.
Rails Easton Wool Blend Crop Jacket in Olive
also wearing: MOTHER High Waist Fray Hem Flare Leg Jeans (30) // Blondo Emmalyn Waterproof Bootie (8.5)
Rails Easton Wool Blend Crop Jacket (S) // This jacket is already a favorite for fall. The quality is fantastic, and it has the perfect crop length. I love the details like the pleat in the back and the button tabs at the waist, and how it’s not quite as boxy as some, but there’s still plenty of room to layer.
It’s definitely a splurge, but I like my black Rails wool blend jacket from last year so much that I was super excited to find this similar one in olive. I know I’ll get a lot of wear out of it.
FYI, the MOTHER jeans I’m wearing here are fantastic, but unfortunately, they’re only available now in limited sizes. You can watch for restocks, though!
The Blondo Emmalyn Waterproof Bootie is still well stocked, and I really like these. I could seriously own these in all three colors. In fact, I just ordered the chocolate brown suede. I’ve been wanting a chocolate brown bootie for fall, and I ordered the Reiss Mina, but they are kind of a murky brown, and the leather is kind of stiff, and I’m not sure I love them. The fact that the Blondo is waterproof is a huge selling point. Size up half, if ordering!
Bernardo Hooded Puffer Jacket with Bib in Sage
Bernardo Hooded Puffer Jacket with Bib (S) c/o // I have this jacket from last year in the black, and it’s such a good one. The fit is flattering, and it’s very warm. I think this sage color is so pretty, and it also comes in pewter, taupe, and blue. It’s also an amazing price, at $99!
Theory Wool & Cashmere Car Coat
Theory Wool & Cashmere Car Coat (S) // This coat is a total splurge, but it’s absolutely stunning. I saw it online, but it didn’t do much for me until I saw another influencer wearing it. Even then, I didn’t expect to love it as much as I did when it arrived and I tried it on.
I really can’t improve upon the description on the Nordstrom website: “Clean lines and a concealed button placket bring minimalist polish to a longline coat cut from a luxuriously soft blend of wool and cashmere.”
It’s 90% wool, 10% cashmere, and unlined. The fit is generous, so there’s ample room for layering, or you can size down for a closer fit. This is the kind of purchase the #NSale is known for — high quality, classic items from designer brands we love and trust. I know I’ll have this coat for many years.
Frank And Eileen Lauren Polo Dress in Blackberry
also wearing: Birkenstock Madrid (39)
Frank And Eileen Lauren Polo Dress (M) // I have this dress from the Frank & Eileen website in the navy, and I was curious how the #NSale version would compare. You can see a side-by-side below.
British Royal Navy c/o (M) // Blackberry (M)
The #NSale version is slightly longer, and I feel like it’s cut a little more generously throughout, but I have both in the size medium. The polo collar on the #NSale version is a little more relaxed, meaning that it opens up a bit more.
The fabric seems the same, and the amazing fit and cut of the garment also appear to be the same, and I love this blackberry color. I ended up wearing it yesterday, and it wore well throughout the day.
All that said, if you can snag your size, I highly recommend grabbing one of these.
KUT From The Kloth Jacqueline Denim Trucker Jacket
also wearing: KUT from the Kloth Meg (6) // Splendid Faye V-Neck Tee (M) // beek Sunbeam Flip Flops (8) // NAGHEDI Nomad Hobo
KUT From The Kloth Jacqueline Denim Trucker Jacket (S) // As a reminder, my go-to denim jacket it included in this year’s sale, and it’s still fully stocked. It has a slightly oversized fit, and a good amount of stretch, and it runs true to size.
