Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2023

[buggiewomma]

I was actually reading about it yesterday. It's 100% viscose and shouldn't even be hand washed. Apparently even rain can be a problem!

If it were me I would keep it and just spot clean the armpits. Maybe dry clean every ten wears

I swear the dry cleaning business is in cahoots with all the clothing companies… it’s like the dairy and meat industries. You need it! It’s the only healthy option! Water and plants = bad bad bad! What about protein??!!!!

I love this top. I vote yes. I might buy one too

Has anyone seen the Osea body balm set in stores recently? My closest Nordstrom is 3 hours away so I usually do everything online. I ordered the glow duo for my mom, and a body balm set to share - but she loves the balm and wants another set of it for herself if I can find one. I’m wondering if it’s worth calling around since the inventory system seems to be split this year.

The balm is my fave too. I always just get the bigger one whenever credo has a sale (they do 20% off regularly).

I swear I have successfully handwashed viscose before (BR factory sundress, it's now 15 yrs old!). It shrinks horribly while wet (like, child-sized small) but will eventually go back to its normal length/width once dry, so you have to be very careful while waiting for it to dry. Cold water, delicate detergent, no twisting/wringing, lay flat on towels to dry. Try it out on a cheaper garment first.

Thought you might enjoy the route my suitcase took to get to me, talk about shipping delays. I love the Beis suitcase! But I missed the Barbie color so thought I might try the Away Vacay pink. Anyone have any experience with this brand?

Okay just bought some maybe want needs: the rag and bone Dre jeans, and 2 pairs of beautiful full-price air Jordans. Oopsie!!

I have two Aways, they’re the smaller carryon, one in beige w/monogram and one in aluminum. I’ve had the beige one for 6 years and it’s put up with a lot of cobblestone streets and train station stairs. The aluminum one is much heavier empty so I’d use it for shorter domestic trips. I travel carryon only and was able to use my beige one on an international 16-day trip.

Some people will not buy Away luggage bc of its allegedly toxic work environment, but I bought my first one in 2017 before I learned about the complaints and my aluminum one brand new from a liquidator so….

Since I returned my beloved Paul Green sneakers I made one final purchase last night. It's for the Shinola Birdie watch. I have been wanting one since they came out. There was only one left last night so it was now or never.

I worked in downtown Detroit for close to 28 years. Thought this would be a great reminder of "time" spent there.

I bought this one too and I absolutely love it!

 

[Lily's Mom]

I bought this one too and I absolutely love it!

I am so happy to hear that! I'm excited.

 

[Lelaina752]

Thank you everyone for the suggestions and encouragement! I'm keeping my fingers crossed with shipping.

As an aside, as I do every year, I enjoy seeing everyone's finds! I hope all of you get everything you are looking for, and I hope you have smooth and quick shipping!

I had not heard about this so I just googled - yikes!

I forgot about this phase

Kicking myself for not just buying the maybes to begin with. So much easier to return than to have to stalk!

I did that this year. Ordered everything that was a maybe. And now as I return the maybe items I'm ending up with negative points because I used a double points day. My DH says I'm going to Nordstrom jail (sorry, my DH seems to think he's a funny guy).

These candles just came back. Sold out fast first time so I didn’t rave about their complex scents! Run don’t walk! Love!

Some more items from my lastest NAS arrivals:

Treasure & Bond plaid boyfriend shirt in multi Fiona, size small; Love, especially the color; Keeping.

AG Farrah Fray Hem Bootcut jeans (15 Years Brickwork), size 27. I bought these last year. AG jeans fit me really well and are my favorite jeans. Keeping.

AG Farrah Raw Hem High Waist Bootcut jeans in 4 Years Park Ave, size 27. A much darker wash. Keeping.

Faherty Belmar Reversible Cotton Button-up shirt; small, steel blue buffalo. Very soft and really nice blue color. Once I figured out how to button for both sides, Love. Keeping.

Hoff City Sneaker, San Diego, size 8 US or 39 UK. They fit a little big. I’m used to wearing Brooks Ghosts and not a kick around town sneaker, so haven’t decided on these yet. Loved the box they came in if that matters.

Zella Studio Luxe Performance Jacket, Blackberry, M. Fits well, love the color, seems like good quality. Keeping.

Zella Live in pocket joggers, size small. Didn’t think I would like these. But once I tried them on, yeah they’re a little baggy, but I’m ok with that. Keeping.

Bony Levy 14K gold hoop earrings, small, 3/4 inches?; lightweight and from what I can tell, good quality. Keeping.

I believe I have one more box coming with mainly home and beauty items.

Silly me… I didn’t think I wanted this when it was available and now I’ve decided that I do want it! My pop back order was canceled and I’m wondering if it’s worth chasing. Any feedback about it would be greatly appreciated

I got this in XL and it was a generous TTS. Sleeves were good for a tall person. Looked nice, something you could throw on going to the gym or for running errands. Good for looks more than function, imo. Wouldn't be adequate for warmth. I returned.
