Why is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale so popular?

Every year, Nordstrom releases their brand new fall and winter lines from popular brands (even some designer) to the public at a discounted price (usually around 40% off) for a limited time before they go back up to full price for the start of the fall season. Things tend to sell out quickly, so be sure to add everything to your cart and check out in a timely manner. That strategy is key to snagging your favorites from the sale.

When does the NSALE start?

You can start shopping at 12:01am ET on the date of your tier. This year’s shopping dates are below:

The sale preview goes live on July 3rd where everyone can get a sneak peek at all of the goodies that will be included in the sale. I highly recommend you add your must-haves to your wish list (on their website) so that you can check out quickly on your shopping day. Things have been known to sell out before my eyes even at 12a.m. You do need to go into the day with a plan and be prepared to check out quickly. As always, I will be sharing all of my favorites from each category in the LTK app and on Instagram, so be sure to follow me for updated coverage, outfit inspo and in-stock alerts throughout the sale.

You can apply for a Nordstrom card here and receive a $40 note when you do.

This coat and henley were two of my favorite purchases from last year’s NSALE!

Tips for shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale:

As I stated above, you must go into the sale with a plan. The more prepared you are, the more likely you will be to grab your favorites.

-Make sure your card information is up to date and check your cardmember status to see which day you can begin to shop.

– Do a closet inventory of what you need for this year and make a list of items you plan to shop for. This is also a great time to grab some Christmas gifts and winter items for your kids.

– I tend to stick to buying basics for this sale – think boots, jeans, coats, etc. These brands are great quality and last for years. I love to stock up on sneakers and athleisure as well.

– Add things to your wish list on the Nordstrom website under your account so that you can check out quickly.

Weekly Recap:

This week, we kicked off my favorite month of the year with a bang! October is finally here, but it definitely does not feel like it here. It apparently got up to 101 degrees the other day according to our weatherman. It definitely felt like it. I am excited to see it cooling off a tiny bit next week. Maybe it will finally feel more like fall. We went to the pumpkin patch for Sophie’s field trip yesterday and had the best time! I shared a few more photos on Instagram. We played in a corn pit, pet a donkey, played in the bouncy houses, and picked a pumpkin (of course)!

My little man turned 6 months old last Sunday. I shared a little update on him here! I also shared a few bible verses for stressed out moms here. On Wednesday, I shared a small Amazon haul in my insta stories! I will share more Amazon finds on the blog soon, but for now, check it out in my stories highlights here or in the LTK app! Everything I post (and other exclusive app-only content) will be found in the app.under my name (logan_can).

Happy OFFICIAL first day of fall, y’all! Like every basic girl out there, fall is my favorite time of year. The weather finally starts cooling off a bit and I absolutely love watching the leaves turn to my favorite color palette. The crisp air, football games, boots (and all of the fun fall fashions), pumpkin patches, etc. It all makes me so happy. I think for me, some of my favorite memories and events have happened in the fall which is what makes it so special to me. Our anniversary and Ryan’s, Hampton’s and Weston’s birthdays all take place in the fall. We have had some of our happiest days during this season that I treasure.

I wanted to give you all a little life update because I haven’t written one in a very long time. My sweet baby boy will be 6 months old next week! I can NOT believe that. His first six months have flown by and it has all been a pretty big blur. At the same time, I am really trying to enjoy every minute I can with him and soaking up all the baby things. It is so emotional knowing he is my last baby. It has been tugging on my heartstrings, but I feel like everyone goes through that with their baby.

Hampton is THRIVING in kindergarten. We had a tough first couple of weeks because like him mama, he doesn’t like change. With everything being so new, it was hard on him, but now he is loving it and looks forward to going every day. I am so proud of him.

Sophie is doing great in preschool. We made the decision to move her from a 5 day program to just 3 this year so that I could spend more time with her and we would spend less time on the road. It has worked out really well and I have loved having my three littles all home with me on Mondays and Fridays. She also started dance classes again and is still loving it.

Weston started MMO this year and has done really well. Of course, we are dealing with typical two-year-old things with him right now, but he is so fun and knows how to make us all laugh. He is the sweetest boy.

Ryan and I are doing really well. He is still traveling a lot which is tough some weeks, but it makes the days he is home so much sweeter. We have started being more intentional with making time for one another when he I home and it has been so nice.

I have been struggling with anxiety since having Tucker, but I am doing much better now. I have had to make some lifestyle changes that have helped tremendously. I am also learning how to ask for help when I need it and be okay with that. Exercising and taking breaks when I can has been a game changer for me during this season of life.

We are planning so many things for the next month including a camping trip with some friends and Hampton’s birthday celebration! We can not wait to check some things off of our fall bucket list!

It is officially my favorite time of year! Football has started, PSLs are back and pumpkins are everywhere! I have already started decorating for my favorite season (see IG stories today) but I am so excited to add to it and grab a few of these pieces and PUMPKINS! I went through a couple of my favorite retailers for home decor and linked some really affordable options if you are on a tight budget like I am! I also hit up Hobby Lobby which I can not link to, so check stories for the goodies I grabbed so that you can check your store for the same things if interested. Here are my favorite and affordable fall decor options:

Affordable Fall Decor:

We had a long week last week. Ryan was out of town and Hampton was really sick. We spent the week in and decided to rest. We were all looking so forward to the weekend and trying to get better in time for our little nephew’s pumpkin patch birthday party! Luckily, Hamp is feeling much better now. We were able to enjoy our fun weekend with family and celebrate our sweet Waylon!

Now that September is here, it is officially fall, right? At least, it is in my book! I honestly cannot believe that I haven’t pulled my pumpkins out yet, but that may have to change this weekend! I’m definitely in the mood to decorate for the changing season! Lately, sitting down to blog has not come easy, but I promise I’m not quitting on you. I have been sort of thinking about which direction I want to go from here as well as adjusting to our new schedules and figuring out some office hours has been a struggle. I’m still working it all out, but I am definitely going to make more of an effort to write more because I miss talking to you guys and writing in general.

After the Labor Day weekend and searching through the sales, I honestly didn’t take advantage of many, but I found some great new arrivals that have been added to my wish list! I ordered a few things and will be sharing on my IG stories over the next few days. Nordstrom is also having a great sale on some fall things and I will be sharing those as well, so be sure to follow along on Instagram!

I love nothing more than comfortable and cute clothing. As a SAHM/WAHM (whatever you want to call me), it is essential that I have comfortable clothes that I can run around in all day and go from cleaning to changing diapers to meetings at Starbucks. I have picked out some of the best cozy fall favorites! I have only chosen brands that I know and love and even own a lot of these myself. Others (like the UGG boots) are on my Christmas list! Any of these would make wonderful gifts for your wife, mom, MIL, sister, friends, etc. I tried to choose something for every woman at every stage of life! Tell me what your favorites are in the comments!

This post is sponsored by Cuddl Duds at Macy’s! Thank you for supporting brands who support me!

If you’ve been around my blog for a while, you have heard me mention my Cuddl Duds leggings from last year. They are amazing and I still wear them all the time. They are so soft and comfortable and go great for a day on the town or cuddling up on the couch to watch Netflix! To say I was excited to receive some new leggings last week is an understatement! I also received this adorable cowl neck tunic that is long enough t wear with leggings! Y’all ask me all the time about shirts long enough to wear with leggings that cover your hineys, and this is a great option! It is so soft and cozy and even has thumb holes – which I love!

Happy Monday, friends! We have had the craziest week! Ryan was out of town last week, I have STILL been sick and poor Pippa is still at the vet. She is improving, but she is very sick. My kids threw my laptop and it has not been working right (since my lack of posting over the last few days) and our house is disgusting after Pippa’s sickness. Not to worry, we have carpet cleaners coming. Until then, I am wearing shoes in my house. All the time. We also had the boys’ Lumberjack party at the pumpkin patch this weekend! THAT was my highlight and saving grace of the entire week. Spending time with friends and family and getting my mind off of all of the craziness of the week was just what the doctor ordered.

I love me some cardigans. In fact, I have become a bit of a..umm… cardigan hoarder. Cough cough. Really though, there is nothing better than warm and cozy neutral cardigans during the fall (and winter if you’re in the south) months. I recently purchased the oversized chocolate brown cardigan because I am drawn to dark browns and warm hues this time of year. In fact, our dishes we registered for at our wedding are dark chocolate. I just love it! I fell in love with the sleeves on this one and love how long it is. It is a great one to wear with leggings and it is so cozy!
