For me, The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale goes hand in hand with the thoughts of back-to-school shopping, transitional wear for fall, and the notion of summer’s end. Much like the rest of 2020, I’m shocked we are preparing to head into fall – I never thought a spring spent working from home and a summer spent summering at home, would fly by so fast. Overall, I’d be lying if I didn’t admit I’m excited about fall and the idea of stocking up on fundamental fall pieces to add to my closet. This brings me to today’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale post and a breakdown of the pieces I think are worth having in your closet, this fall.

If you’re new to shopping this annual sale, it’s important to know that this Nordstrom event is first open to Nordstrom Cardholders only, from August 4th to the 18th depending on your card level. The sale then opens to the public on August 19th, which is when I typically shop it.

It’s by far one of the best department store sales of the year and worth shopping if not for staples like fall jackets and jeans alone! So without further ado here are some Fundamental Fall Pieces I’d recommend purchasing during this year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.

Quilted Jacket

If I had to name one piece every New Englander needs in their closet – I would have to say a quilted jacket. Whether you’re looking for a fall jacket for your boyfriend or yourself – these jackets look classic, can be worn to work or on the weekends and never go out of style.

Boyfriend Jeans

No fall closet is complete without a lineup of jeans which is why I often stock up on jeans during The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. A few jeans I have my eyes on from the sale are linked here, here & here.

Free People Sweaters

Free People is a brand you can rely on when it comes to create the perfect fall sweater. From chunky looks to mock necks – here are a few sweaters from the sale that I’d recommend. First and foremost this pumpkin shaded one, this mock neck top & this oversized piece.

Double Breasted Coat

We can’t talk about fundamental fall pieces without referencing a double breasted coat, especially if it’s PLAID like this number!

Veja Sneakers

Veja Sneakers have been growing by popularity for years now, so I was excited to see several options included in this year’s Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! This pair, this pair & this velcro pair all made my wishlist!

Tweed Jacket

I always look at tweed jackets as investment pieces I’ll have in my closet for years to come. I’ve linked some of my favorite tweed jackets from this year’s sale – here, here & here.

Pointed Toe Mules

As we begin the transition into fall, I can’t help but mention my obsession with these pointed toe mules. Whether I’m off to work or off to grab a cider donut – here are some mules I look forward to snagging at the sale and where this fall.

Tie Neck Shirt

One item I always try to stock up on during The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is classic blouses – like this tie neck one. I typically look for blouses that are easy to transition from work to weekend like this one, this leopard one and this one.
