Jess’ Top Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2025 Picks
Top (8) | Jeans (27) | Bomber(6) | Tee (S) | Jeans (27) | Flats (7.5)
ONE: Reiss Simone Cowl Neck Sleeveless Trapeze Top + Paige Anessa High Waist Raw Hem Wide Leg Jeans – This Reiss blouse was at the top of my wishlist and I am so glad I was able to get my hands on it. It is even better than I thought it would be: the cowl neck, the trapeze fit, the drapey open back. It’s such a special piece that makes a statement without being too loud. It’s incredibly chic and the quality is great. The front looks just as cool as the back.
TWO: AllSaints Orten Suede Bomber Jacket + Paige Anessa Wide Leg Jeans + Steve Madden Pipa Flats + Frame’s Striped Tee – This bomber is so, SO lux. Every year, Allsaints always reels me in with their top quality leather outerwear and this year is no different. In the past, their moto jackets have been my fav and this bomber feels like the updated version of their suede moto jacket, for 2025. Also, the Paige jeans are amazing, I only took home two pairs, and these made the cut, because they are so flattering and go with everything.

Laura’s Top Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2025 Picks
ONE: Ok, me and jeans haven’t been getting along…until now. These MOTHER Dodger Skimp in the Nsale are so freaking good. They aren’t even stretchy and I love them. They’ll break in beautifully with wear, but fit well already (I sized up 1 size to a 30 which I typically do in Levi’s and MOTHER non-stretch) Now’s the time to snag these, friends! Sweater | Shoes
TWO: And while we’re on the subject of denim, this AllSaints jacket is my favorite Nsale find. It’s so cute layered and also cut on its own. I went with my regular size even though it looked really oversized on the model. (Tried the Small and it was fine but not as dramatic.) The jeans are the Levi’s Baggy Dad jean and I’ve decided the name is just not good enough for how great they are. This wash in the sale is perfect. Nobody wants a ‘baggy dad’ but everybody should want these jeans. Lol. Shirt | Jeans (30) | Boots

Scotti’s Top Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2025 Picks
ONE: I would’ve totally overlooked this sweater if I hadn’t seen it in person. It looks just as good belted as it does left open, and it’s the perfect layer for transitional weather. The shawl collar doesn’t lay flat like most—it drapes exactly how you want it to. This one’s just as easy to throw over loungewear at home (these!) as it is to wear over office-ready looks. (And if jeans are fair game at work, these trouser jeans totally pass the test—polished but still comfy.)
TWO: Every year I look for one luxe sweater worth investing in—and this year it’s this one from VINCE. The wool-cashmere blend is soft (not even a little itchy), with a cropped, modern fit and a neckline that’s perfectly in between a crewneck and a turtleneck. Super comfy, super warm—this is the sweater I’ll be reaching for all season. (The AG jeans I’m wearing with it are my faves of the sale…and also on sale at Amazon and Bloomingdale’s if your size is sold out!)

Linzi’s Top Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2025 Picks
Jacket (XS) | Jeans (8) | Top (XS) | Jacket (S)
ONE: I can’t believe my favorite rain jacket of all time is still in stock in the sale! Lightweight, super cute, packable, and I’ve been SOOOOO incredibly happy with mine. This is the jacket I own in two colors, my mom owns it in black, and I just bought one for my aunt too. The one in the sale is the newest version, but looks super similar…unfortunately the 2.0 wasn’t at my store, so I’m still waiting for it to arrive. If you want the older version …it’s here and here, but sale colors have very limited sizing. I own the XS and S and like both fits.
TWO: We’ve had a bunch of questions about the Kut From The Kloth and Wit & Wisdom jeans. They’re a fantastic option for stretchy wide-leg jeans under $100. If you want to see selfies of all the ones I liked go here, but these Wit & Wisdoms totally stand out because of how leg-lengthening they are. Note..they do have a stretchy elastic in the waist, but you CAN’T see it and it still looks like a regular jean (some people love it…some people don’t). 32 inch inseam, so I should have definitely gotten the petite.

Julieta’s Top Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2025 Picks
Left: Shirt (S) l Pants (4) l Bag // Right: Shacket (S) l Pants (26) l Bag l Shoes (more colors)
ONE: I’ve been searching for pants that feel structured but don’t fight my body, and these Vince Fluid wide-leg navy trousers are it. The design is like a polished utility pant. Paired with this All Saints sheer, printed top (stretchy, bold, surprisingly easy to wear), the whole look feels like ease with presence. This beautiful Madewell Navy bag ties the look together.
TWO: I love a good brown on brown moment, and this Alicia and Olivia cropped faux-leather jacket over the amazing Paige Anissa wide-leg brown pants hit the mark. It’s structured but soft, polished but wearable. I’d wear this on a casual day where I still want to feel a little put together, and a little magnetic.

Amy’s Top Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2025 Picks
ONE: No idea how these jeans are still in stock. Granted, my photo is older/of a diff wash, but the wash in the sale is arguably wayyyy better. They’re loose & slouchy, but my true size felt like the perfect fit for the style. Don’t put full stock into the listing measurements, mine also said 31” and ended up being longer in real life. Alwaysssss try ‘em on.
TWO: An absolute hero piece of my wardrobe all late summer and throughout fall/winter of last year was this sweater. I LOVE how unique it is, and it’s got the perfect oversized fit. V-necks also seem to be appearing for fall in a bigggggg way, crewnecks might not be king for much longer, and this is an easy way to…uh…ease back into that, lol. There’s a few color options, too!

Em’s Top Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2025 Picks
Tee (TTS, S) | jeans (TTS, 25) | birks (TTS) // Sweater (wearing a L) | jeans (TTS) | clogs (size up)
ONE: So delighted to see that this quasi-sporty jersey tee is offered in a few new colors this year. It’s one of my favorite purchases from last year’s sale – and easily one of my most-worn. Incredibly soft with great drape, the perfect shape for a slouchy tuck (or not), washes well and is the perfect not-so-basic tee (but still feels a little more elevated than my default graphic tees). I’ve worn it super casually (like this), but I’ve also put it with wideleg jeans, a blazer and boots for a casual “night out” look. p.s. Last year, this one was restocked a couple times, so hoping the same will happen this year if your size is out.
TWO: I’ve had these Mia Abba clogs for years now, and they’re so comfy and cool. They instantly make any outfit a little bit cool-girl (let’s face it, clogs have always been cool) without sacrificing comfort or feeling too try-hard. Obviously my color is different from those in the sale, but I’m tempted to snag the black for fall. Size up, especially if you’re typically a half-size.

Aliya’s Top Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2025 Picks
L: Dress (M) | Similar sneakers | R: Trousers (M) | Top (M) | Similar boots
ONE: This under $100 dress is the one piece from the NSale I can’t take off. I wish I was over exaggerating when I say I wore it after shooting the pic above yesterday and already have it back on today as i write this. It’s the kind of piece that’s just SO practical – I can see myself throwing this on for the day and feeling put together while I’m running errands, headed to work or out for drinks. It pairs great with sneakers + sandals. The material is lightweight but still has nice structure to it. The top is softer and tighter while the bottom is a more swishy/flowy material. The best parts? A built in shelf bra (that’s right – it’s big bust approved) and zipper pockets. Doesn’t get much better than that.
TWO: These under $100 trousers seriously surprised me. When I tried them on in the dressing room I was a little overwhelmed by how baggy they were but let’s be honest – those Nordstrom dressing rooms are rough! I feel like they use fun house mirrors haha! The trousers were so comfortable and the material was so light I had to bring them home. Once I threw them on with heels I was totally sold. I’m 5’3” so I would get them hemmed so I can wear them with sneakers too. Love!
