Hello and welcome to The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2021 Style Guide. Style guide? Yes, my fashion-loving friend. This is a style guide and review of my favorite purchases from the Nsale so far! I hope you find this helpful and also walk away with a few ideas of how to wear an item you purchased! I’ll also be sharing lots of try-ons throughout the rest of the sale on my stories to give you a better idea of the fit. But I’ve still included my sizing for reference below! I hope you enjoy shopping the sale as much as I always do 🙂
FREE PEOPLE TOO GOOD SWEATER
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS
This is hands down my favorite sweater I purchased from the sale!! It comes in five colors (obsessed with the white btw) and it’s under $50!!
OPEN STITCHED CAMEL SWEATER
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS
I fell in love with the color and the price of this top/sweater as soon as I saw it. I didn’t even try it on at the store! It looks so cute with the Free People Bralette (also on sale btw!)
FREE PEOPLE ADELLA BRALETTE
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE SMALL
OUR FAVORITE BRALETTE IS ON SALE FOR UNDER $25 YOU GUYS!!!! I purchased it in the nude color and I’m obsessed obsessed obsessed. If in between sizes, I would size down. But the straps are adjustable which is great!!
MADEWELL CARDIGAN
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS
Because it’s never a Nordstrom Anniversary Sale without a new Madewell Cardigan! Lol! They sell out every single year. Quality is 10/10 and I love the neutral colors in this year’s version!
SPANX FAUX LEATHER LEGGINGS
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS PETITE
I have had my spanx faux leather leggings for years now and still love them! A comfy and flattering alternative to classic leather pants, but fit and feel exactly like leggings- except with insane sculpting power! It’s so crazy how you can easily dress these up with heels or down with sneakers. LOVE.
$29 THERMAL
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS
The Free People thermal has met it’s match. Actually, this is much softer and more affordable than this year’s free people thermal, to be honest!! I tried both on in stores and I like this one so much more!
Barefoot Dreams Circle Cardigan
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS/S
I’ve had mine for four years now, you guys! FOUR When the weather starts to get cooler, I literally throw this on as I get out of bed every single morning. It’s the only piece of clothing that I can think of that I can wear with PJS but just as easily wear it with leggings and boots. This cardigan comes in a few different styles, but the circle shape of this one is for sure my favorite!
SCALLOP SPORTS BRA // MATCHING LEGGINGS
RUNS SMALL // WEARING SIZE 4 IN BOTH!
I have been wanting to try this brand for activewear for quite some time now and I have to admit I’m impressed!! The material description says it’s “made with Hydrasculpt™ collagen-infused fabric that smoothes your skin while wicking away moisture.” I’m not sure what that means but I love the color!! 😉
SPORTS BRA // MATCHING LEGGINGS
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE 2 IN BOTH
This is the same brand as the pink set above (but sizing is different!). I honestly think I was so drawn to it because it’s one of the few pieces that are a part of the sale that I can wear right away! I love the bright color and I would say the compression is medium- which makes it super comfortable!
SPORTS BRA // MATCHING LEGGINGS
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS
Another outfit I purchased last year and still love. This is an AMAZING lululemon align dupe btw! Both pieces are in the”studio lite” material by Zella, which is super similar to lululemon align material. It’s actually the only material from Zella that I have found I loved! If you don’t want to spend the money on lulu- try this top for under $25 and I think you’ll love it!
$37 NORTH FACE SWEATSHIRT
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS
Ya, this one was a no-brainer!! It’s lined with a super soft fleece and would make an amazing Christmas gift if you’re shopping. Also comes in a mint green color here!
$7.90 CROPPED TEE
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS
I actually love the BP brand for tees and this one is on sale for EIGHT DOLLARS. It’s the perfect cropped/oversized fit for leggings so I ordered another one!
ALO 7/8 LEGGINGS
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS
These are my favorite leggings from the sale because the material is so good! Moisture-wicking, but incredibly soft and doesn’t have too much compression!! Comes in 3 colors here.
GIBSON V-NECK // MATCHING JOGGERS
SIZE DOWN // WEARING SIZE XXS
If you’ve been around here for a while you know my long-time love for all things Gibson. This is hands down the best lounge set of the sale and it’s under $30! It comes in 6 colors and I’m wearing the “rosewater“, and it is the prettiest light pink! I also ordered the “toasted almond“ color because I love it that much!!
SAM EDELMAN BOOTS
RUNS TTS // I WENT UP UP 1/2 SIZE (I always do in boots!)
I think these are the best boots in the entire sale! I love the square toe trend. find this style of boot to be so flattering on everyone and the color goes with EVERYTHING.
VINCE CAMUTO BOOTIES
RUNS TTS // I WENT UP UP 1/2 SIZE (I always do in boots!)
I actually got these ankle boots two years ago and they were hands down one of my best purchases. They go with everything and I’m obsessed with the nude suede color! I’m wearing the color “tortilla suede”.
MARC FISHER BOOTIE
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS
This is probably the most comfortable bootie I have ever worn because of the elastic ankle! I originally wanted to purchase these in white leather but my store didn’t have them so I got the grey suede! But if looking for white booties (I feel like a lot of people are this year?!) then I would 100% recommend these!!
ADIDAS SWIFT RUN
RUNS TTS // WEARING SIZE XS
I think I have 3 or 4 of these now in different colors so I definitely didn’t NEED these, but I fell in love with the leopard ivory print! Adidas swift run has always been my favorite for “athleisure” shoes. I don’t run in them but I can wear them all day long and my feet never hurt!
TORY BURCH SLIDE
SIZE DOWN 1/2 SIZE// WEARING SIZE 6.5 (MY NORMAL SIZE IS A 7)
Saved my favorite purchase for last!! Which is ironic because I had no intention of purchasing these but holy moly it was love-at-first try-on! 😉 It has an “anatomically contoured footbed” which makes it the most comfortable shoe EVER. It’s like walking on a cloud. I’ll be living in these!!
I do hope you enjoyed this post and always appreciate you shopping my links if you decide to grab anything!!
I’ll be sharing more throughout the sale on my Instagram stories and on my LTK!! Happy shopping everyone!
