I’m not normally one to condone random purchases that don’t warrant much forethought, but during sale season, you don’t really have much of a choice. Trust me—I spent 99% of the recent holiday weekend scouring every sale on the internet, and on multiple occasions, items I had in my cart disappeared minutes after they were added when someone else pressed purchase before I gathered the courage to do so myself. There’s no room for hesitation in times like these. It’s all about action. 

I’ve never learned this lesson as intensely as I have at Nordstrom, where I’ve been missing out on unforgettable sale items during the company’s Half-Yearly sale for almost two decades. Never again will I make that mistake—and neither should you. With that said, when I tell you that the 27 Nordstrom-sale finds below should be purchased immediately, I’m not saying so lightly. So, if you trust me at all, you’ll get scrolling. Hesitation will only lead to regret.  

Use this occasion to replace your over-worn black blazer.
