At this point, whenever Nordstrom drops a sale it’s virtually a holiday. It’s not uncommon to catch the final drip of end-of-season sales around this time in January, but few rival Nordstrom’s expansive selection of epic markdowns. So when the retailer launched a semi-sale a few days ago, I stopped everything to see what was up. And scan every corner I did—precisely 400 plus pages of boots, dresses, denim, sweaters and more.
Many tired eyes and fatigued fingers later (because I’m just that dedicated), I found the most compelling fashion buys of the bunch. It’s great news if a wardrobe refresh or trend experiment is on the seasonal agenda—there were so many great designer discounts included in the sale like Prada and The Row for 60% off. But if your budget calls for staples that are more affordable, of course, there’s plenty of that too. Ahead, keep scrolling to shop the deals that trump the rest.
