The sale is finally open to the public and you can shop these discounted items until August 4th. This is my first year actually shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and being able to pick up items before they sell out. I was smart about what I purchased and only shopped for closet staples. Jackets, cardigans and shoes were my main focus. The majority of the items I picked up are sold out, but I was able to find two items at a different retailer for the same price. The Spanx Faux leather leggings and Adidas Sneakers! I will leave all items and sizing liked below. Just for sizing reference I wear size Medium/Large in tops, 6-8 in jeans and size 7 shoes.
This TopShop carigan runs HUGE! Size down for sure. I am wearing a Small. It's so cozy and waiting for other colors to restock to pick up one more. Currently available in sized M-XL. Comes in 4 colors. $44.90

This BlanNYC faux leather jacket is a MUST have! This was my first purchase and I am not disappointed. I can't believe it hasn't sold out yet. Wearing a size Medium. Runs true to size. Available in all sized except Large. Come in 2 colors. $64.90

I am wearing a size Medium in this Thread and Supply jacket. It is fleece lined and runs true to size. It is currently sold out but keep an eye out just in case they restock. If you were able to pick this jacket up I am so happy for you because this jacket is SO good! Comes in 2 colors. $58.90

These are Adidas Sneakers are AMAZING and run true to size. Unfortunately they are sold out at Nordstrom, BUT I found them at a different retailer for $60!!! YES for $60 and free shipping!! Use code: SPENDANDSAVE for $10 off HERE! 

Holy moly SIZE UP!! These BP booties run small! Purchased a size 7 in medium width, but should have purchased a 7.5 or 7 wide. Will be returning these, but they are so cute!! I can't believe they are still fully stocked! The heel height is perfect for this mama. Comes in 4 colors. $69.90
