Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2021: My Favorites + Wish List

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is live to the public, starting today through August 8th! I had the opportunity to shop the sale in advance again this year, and there is a huge variety of items that are included…it was a little overwhelming! When browsing, I kept a list and marked my favorites to stay organized. I tried to focus on the categories of items that I truly needed, and wanted to buy on sale. Some products I will use regularly; others, I will take advantage of the sale price and save for another season.  I have found when I bought a lot of the clothes in the past, that I didn’t end up wearing a lot of them.

There is truly something for everyone in this sale. I narrowed my favorite choices down to a few categories, and put together some inspiration boards to show you!

 :: Beauty Products ::

 This sale is a great chance for me to stock up on my favorites. It’s also a good excuse to go ahead and purchase a couple of items that I’ve been wanting to try plus grab a back stock of some of my favorites!

I would love one of these lighted mirrors for the vanity in my master bath! It makes makeup application and skin care so much easier.

Right now, we spend most of our time outside in the sunshine, but I need to stash a bottle of this away for the winter. St Tropez tanning foam gives a really natural glow. Their products are all great quality and do not go on sale often. This is a great sale price!

This Charlotte Tilbury lip gloss set includes the iconic Pillow Talk shade – the perfect neutral pink – along with two other popular colors to suit your mood. I would wear one of these three shades year round.

:: Activewear Favorites ::

During the pandemic, I got used to wearing athleisure everywhere, and now it’s just become a habit…I know I’m not the only one! This is a great opportunity to stock up on those staples that might need replacing. Here are some of my favorites.

This longline sports bra is perfect for yoga, Pilates, or just everyday wearing under a sweatshirt or tank top. It is so comfortable and goes with just about any active wear piece.

When it comes to leggings, you cannot beat the quality and comfort of Spanx. I own more pairs of Spanx leggings than I care to admit! Both the everyday workout leggings and faux leather leggings are just capsule wardrobe pieces that get so much wear. This is a great opportunity to get Spanx items on sale!

:: For the Kids ::

My kids are growing so quickly, and I love taking advantage of a great sale to restock some favorites in their closets!

It seems like a long time away, but eventually we will need coats here in Florida! I like to purchase ahead of time and have them ready and waiting, instead of panic buying at the last minute. This North Face hooded jacket is one of my favorite options for Madelyn. I’ve linked a couple of other outerwear favorites below.

This Herschel backpack is great quality, and the perfect style for a diaper bag, or to hold the kids’ everyday essentials (and yours!).

We love this carry on luggage for family travel. It is perfectly sturdy and has remained in great shape after years of use.

These Ugg booties will be perfect for my girls when the weather gets cooler!

:: For the Home ::

Interior design has become somewhat of a passion of mine. Even when I’m not working on a larger scale project, I like a chance to change things up a bit around our home, with small accessories that make our lives easier. There are so many options available, no matter your style. Here, I’m focusing on items that will make my home more cozy and comfortable for my family.

Have you tried sleeping on silk pillowcases? They are so good for your hair and feel so luxurious. They can, however, be pretty pricey. This is a good sale price.

This lazy susan works for the kitchen island, pantry, or table – it’s such a polished look and is a great tool for kitchen organization.

This Nest candle set is a great way to try a variety of Nest candle scents in your home. I love to buy sets like this and keep them handy – they make the perfect hostess gifts!
