It’s the most wonderful time of the year… The NSALE at Nordstrom! Every July, the NSALE rolls around, and every July, we all obsess over it. Yesterday, the 2022 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale preview came out and of course it immediately made me ready for fall! It’s been said that year after year, the products seem repetitive and, while that’s partly true, I view that as a good thing for a few reasons. The first reason is because you can never go wrong with staples, so if NSALE products from years past look similar, that’s just another chance to add a staple to your closet you might’ve missed last time. Also, you may not shop the sale every year, so sale items look completely new to you! Lastly, I personally love when they bring back popular items because they sell out so quickly and this gives you another chance to grab it this time around.
That being said, my wish list for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is completely full this year. From sweaters and coats, to fall appropriate shorts and black booties, here’s what I have my eye on this year! Of course I'll still get the usual beauty, activewear, and loungewear items I do year over year, but this year I'm most excited about the items below.
While there are still plenty of styles you can find to wear during the remaining summer season, fall is definitely the highlight of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. So, why not save now on fall items that are typically more expensive when buying in season? Scroll down for details about each of the items on my wish list from the 2022 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Longline Camel Coat
I will never not buy a camel coat, especially when it’s this good and on sale. This longline wool blend coat by Reiss features classic notched labels and an optional belt to really bring home the chic factor. If you’ve been waiting for the perfect camel coat for fall, this could be it!

Belted Black Coat
Although camel coats are my first love, black coats are an all-time classic. This belted wool blend coat by Halogen is as timeless as they come and is an incredible price point for just under $150. This is a total steal and will absolutely get its wear come the fall and winter.

Tweed Blazer
I started a love affair with olive this year, and so to say I’m freaking out other this tweed blazer is an understatement. The color is everything and can so easily be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion. The double-breasted buttons elevate this blazer so you can wear it casually with a white tee and jeans, or dress it up with slacks and heels for work! Obsessed.

Double-Breasted Blazer
As much as I love a classic black blazer, I think this fall we’ll see a big resurgence of lighter-colored blazers like this ivory one by Reiss. For me, this is a classic wear now and wear later piece—now with a tank and denim shorts, later with a tee and blue jeans. It’s a gorgeous, smart piece that is the perfect length and vibe for trendy workwear.

Camel Wrap
This 100% wool wrap is the perfect piece to quickly elevate a look, add a layer of warmth over an evening outfit, or wear while you travel. No need for a bulky coat, jacket, or sweater when you have something so light yet so warm. This is the kind of piece you will never get rid of because of its high quality and versatility.

Short Sleeve Sweater
It’s a little tradition of mine to always get a short sleeve sweater from the NSALE. I just love the novelty of a short sleeve sweater—thick enough to keep you warm, yet lets your arms breath! This bouclé sweater by Eileen Fisher is so chic. The texture really elevates it so you can wear it with black pants or jeans for a date night or dress it down with blue jeans and sneakers.

Stripe Cotton Sweater
La Ligne is one of my favorite brands in general, so this striped cotton sweater was an immediate add-to-wish-list for me. Black and white stripes for fall and winter are so classic, and I love the neckline on this particular version, too. Will look so good with blue jeans, a red lip, and booties!

High Waist Crop Jeans
Grabbing a new pair of jeans from the NSALE is a non-negotiable, and these high waist crop jeans by AG are perfection. They’re classic, clean (as in no rips or tears), and a light wash so they will pair with anything and everything. They also have a good amount of stretch, which is super important!

Faux Leather Shorts
The price on these black faux leather shorts is just too good to pass up! These shorts are smoothly tailored so they look extra chic and the best part is that they’re ready to wear right now with heels and into the fall with booties. These will definitely be coming home with me this year!

Split Hem Cropped Faux Leather Pants
I am drooling over these split hem, flare, faux leather pants by Nanushka. The clay color is so elegant and different and will pair beautifully with white, black, or blue (as in denim). Plus, with the right pair of pumps, these can take you from smart, office-chic to sophisticated date night without an outfit change!

Black Booties
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I actually really do need these. As in, I don’t have a similar pair of black booties and have been on the lookout for this kind of style. The stiletto heel offsets the otherwise classic Chelsea boot look, which is why I’m so drawn to them—it’s the best of both worlds!

Square Sunglasses
The amount of wear I’ve gotten from my Celine sunglasses has made them more than worth the cost. I love the shape and look of these 51mm square sunglasses that are part of the Nordstrom sale and cannot wait to add them to my collection! They’ll be a fun departure from my typical all black shades.

Very excited for the sale! I get in Friday. Are you able to earn commissions when items are placed in wishlists? I am genuinely asking as I added a few of your picks to mine, and want to make sure you receive “credit.” Thanks for all of your Anniv sale due diligence 🙂
Aw thank you! I’m not sure once they are in your wish list, but very kind of you to ask!
Love your picks! I’ve noticed that some of the styles are already sold out, or have only limited stock. Wondering whether it’s a glitch on the website, or if these items truly won’t be restocked in time for the sale?
