Nordstrom's Big Sale: 18 Must-Buy Deals Unveiled

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale: Top Deals to Know About

Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale is here, offering discounts across a variety of categories including beauty, footwear, home, and apparel. The sale officially starts online and in stores on July 12 and runs through August 3. However, Nordstrom cardholders and Nordy Club members with icon status (meaning you’ve spent $15,000 yearly at the retailer) can start shopping the deals earlier.

As a writer for NBC Select, I frequently cover shopping events like Amazon Prime Day, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday, so I know how to find deals that are actually worth buying. Below, I rounded up the best Nordstrom Anniversary Sale deals, which are highly rated and at least 20% off. I’ll frequently update this list throughout Nordstrom’s sale.

Best Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Deals

On Cloudnova 2 Sneaker

• Price: $89.99 at Nordstrom
• Rating: 4.3 stars from 163 reviews at Nordstrom
• Why it's great: NBC Select editors love running sneakers from On. This pair has a sole with a rocker shape to help propel you forward and a wider midsole for comfort. The upper is made from mesh for breathability, and the heel area has extra support to keep your foot secure and in place as you run, according to the brand.

Hoka Women’s Bondi 8 Running Shoe

• Price: $119.99 at Nordstrom
• Rating: 4.4 stars from 1,327 reviews at Nordstrom
• Why it's great: Hoka is another sneaker brand that NBC Select editors love. The Bondi is known for having thick cushioning at the midsole to absorb most shock as your foot hits the ground. The sneakers come in regular, wide, and extra-wide widths and go up to a size 12.

Spanx AirEssentials Half Zip Sweatshirt

• Price: $70.80 at Nordstrom
• Rating: 4.4 stars from 162 reviews at Nordstrom
• Why it's great: If you see me on the weekend, there’s a good chance you’ll catch me in this half zip sweatshirt from Spanx — and I almost always pair it with the matching pants (which are also on sale). The fabric is buttery soft, the fit is loose enough to be comfy but not so loose that it looks sloppy, and the half zip adds extra style.

Zella Studio Luxe High Waist Leggings

• Price: $49.99 at Nordstrom
• Rating: 4.2 stars from 350 reviews at Nordstrom
• Why it's great: These classic black leggings are great for a yoga class, but also streamlined enough to pair with a chambray button-down for a casual outing. They have a supportive mesh layer in the tummy area and feature flat seams to prevent chafing. They also have a pocket on the hip to stash your phone.

T3 Airbrush Blow Dry Brush

• Price: $99.99 at Nordstrom
• Rating: 4.4 stars from 338 reviews at Nordstrom
• Why it's great: One of our favorite blow-dry brushes, this option from T3 has a microchip that helps to prevent temperature fluctuations, so you don’t have to worry about heat drying your hair, according to the brand. It has three heat settings and two speed settings, and the brush is oval-shaped to help give you a smoother blowout.

PMD Clean Facial Cleansing and Firming Massage Device

• Price: $66.33 at Nordstrom
• Rating: 4.4 stars from 678 reviews at Nordstrom
• Why it's great: This facial cleansing device has small silicone bristles that serve up 7,000 vibrations per minute to help break down dirt and grime on your face and wash them away. You can either apply your face wash directly to this waterproof device or put it on your face and then use the brush to massage it in gently. You can also use the other side of the brush as a facial massage tool.

Moon Water Flosser

• Price: $48.99 at Nordstrom
• Rating: 4.8 stars from 98 reviews at Nordstrom
• Why it's great: Experts have previously told us that water flossers do an excellent job of removing plaque from your teeth. This cordless water flosser has a rechargeable battery that lasts up to 8 weeks on a single charge and a water tank that holds 210 mL of water. It has two cleansing modes — gentle and deep clean — and a 360-degree rotating tip to help reach every nook and cranny in your mouth.

Le Creuset Signature 2.75 Quart Enamel Dutch Oven

• Price: $193.99 at Nordstrom
• Rating: 4.7 stars from 20 reviews at Nordstrom
• Why it's great: This cast iron Dutch oven is perfect for slow cooking, roasting, or simmering. It has a tight-fitting lid and a colorful, chip-resistant exterior. This 2.75-quart size is ideal for making food for two to three people.

Barefoot Dreams CozyChic Rib Throw Blanket

• Price: $111.99 at Nordstrom
• Rating: 4.7 stars from 207 reviews at Nordstrom
• Why it's great: I have one of these cozy blankets in almost every room of my house. They’re made of a microfiber material that feels so soft against your skin. I also love the chic ribbed pattern and muted colors they come in. The blanket comes folded up and wrapped in a ribbon, making it easy to gift, too.

Our Place Large Wonder Oven

• Price: $183.99 at Nordstrom
• Rating: 4.4 stars from 95 reviews at Nordstrom
• Why it's great: The regular size of Our Place’s Wonder Oven made our list of the best toaster ovens. Currently, the larger size is on sale at Nordstrom. It comes in unique colors like charcoal gray and blue salt and has six different cooking functions — including toast, air fry, bake, and broil. The large size fits two racks and is big enough for a 12-inch pizza.
