My friends are always looking to me for advice on what to buy. Basically, I’m their personal stylist, and I’m responsible for keeping their closets up-to-date with all the latest trends. To tell the truth, I love it, as I get to put my fashion expertise to use. Plus, with the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2026 starting July 18, I’ve got plenty of recommendations—chunky beaded necklaces, lace-trim camisoles, zebra-print kitten heels, silk scarves, high-neck trench coats, slim-straight jeans, jelly mules, two-tone earrings, cashmere crewnecks… I can keep going. Heard enough?
Well, don’t worry. I put together a curated list of everything trend-forward from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale that’s worth shopping, and they’re all pieces I have or would recommend to a friend. Think designer-looking handbags, oversize sunglasses, satin shorts, and so much more. Scroll on to shop these discounted gems.
