Here at New York Post Shopping, we’ve been calling the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale “our baby.” Why? It’s one of the most-anticipated promotions of the year, we love to shop (while scoring a great deal as a bonus) and rave about the retailer without cease.
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale officially kicks off on Tuesday, July 11 for Nordstrom Icons (the highest tier of company shoppers, but more of that in our exclusive preview, where we interviewed the retailer’s VP). However, the first day everyone can shop its buzzy, all-over-social-media sale is Monday, July 17.
New York Post Shopping had the first pass at presenting readers worldwide with the best baby and kids’ offerings that will be on sale (hello, Nuna car seats and top-rated high chairs), but there are so many categories worth dropping your coin — including beauty, men’s fashion, designer items, popular gift items and more.
So, it was only natural for us to create the only edit you’ll need: 40 top picks, divided by category, from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2023. It’s an event we’re still heart-eyes about, and we recommend acting quickly.
Click to jump to a specific category:
When in doubt, grabbing the Dyson Airwrap Multi-Styler Complete while it’s on style isn’t a bad idea (actually, it’s recommended). Not only is it one of the best blow dryers we reviewed (read: Dyson Airwrap review) but it’s now available in this beautiful topaz color for an extra luxe touch.
We’re big fans of MAC Cosmetics, so when it comes out with a stunning fall-ready eyeshadow palette and one of the best mascaras we reviewed, we’re ready to fire up our online shopping carts. Plus, it makes a great less-than-$50 gift idea.
It’s not too late to pick up a new facial sunscreen. In fact, you should be using one every day, according to derms. So, grab the Supergoop! Glow Screen & Glow Stick — a dreamy, skin-protecting duo that’s just shy of $45 for you to use on the regular.
NARS has one of our favorite blushes (it’s ‘Orgasm’ shade is second to none), so pick up two full-sized compacts for just $40 during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. Its speckled pink shade looks riveting on any skin tone, too.
Meet one of our favorite fragrances: Gucci Bloom. Now, you can grab a full-size bottle and travel-friendly spray — one to sit on your nightstand, the other for your designer clutch. For less than $100, it’s one of those hot-button SKUs to pick up while on sale.
Cult Gaia, how we love you. The brand’s Gigi Sandal is Grecian-inspired, beautifully bronzed and features that sought-after clear heel detailing we can’t get enough of. Now, enjoy nearly $200 off this tried-and-true shoe staple.
Dolce Vita is one of the best brands to grab at Nordstrom (they’re truly the talk of the town), and now you can strut into the town with its Vita Zina Sneaker. For more than $50 off, they’re breathable and versatile enough to match with any look.
No, it’s not too early to swipe a pair of boots on sale, and we deeply recommend the Steve Madden Baily Boot. Just shy of $100 thanks to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, they’re the platform and edgy pair that still holds a classic shape. Simply perfect.
Some people love ’em, some people hate ’em (similar to Crocs), but we consider the brand-new Birkenstock Madrid Big Buckle Lena Sandal a comfortable, versatile shoe to add to your collection. Plus, you can’t say no to oversized gold buckle detailing.
Allbirds are a brand our readers love, and its Women’s Tree Dashers are on one of the best Nordstrom Anniversary Sale deals we’ve seen yet. Now for $70, this breathable, outdoors-ready shoe is ultra-soft and worth the pick-me-up.
Tap into classic brand territory with Levi’s, specifically with its 90s Trucker Jacket. Now for more than $40 off, its traditional silhouette, timeless feel and slightly cropped design make it a winner.

Shop the Outdoor Voices Crossback Dress, a tennis-inspired one-piece that’s perfect for any gal who loves athleisure (slip on and go!) In this stunning pink shade and sports bra-style back, we can’t say no — especially for $25 less than its original price.
Believe it or not, fall is on its way (so, the Nordstrom Signature Peplum Sweater is a quality investment to make while on sale. It’s nearly $100 off, in a sweet neutral shade to layer and match with all of your shackets and jeans and has a cable-knit feel — but breathable.

Sought-after brand Good American has its dreamy Good Legs Straight Jean on sale for less than $100 (BRB, doing a cartwheel). That means, they’re just about $50 for a signature steal. Yes, please.
Loungewear sets are all the rage, so it’s only natural for us to recommend the Open Edit Cozy Cardi 3-Piece Set. Whether you wear its tank with your favorite pajama shorts or mix and match the included pants with a bralette, rest assured you’ll get your money’s worth out of this now-$65 set.
Nordstrom has a designer section for a reason (in other words, this is the opportune time to grab that sexy yet expensive item while it’s discounted). The Lafayette 148 Reversible Coat is fully clad with a cashmere collar to prep right away for the fall season ahead. Plus, its breathable puffer feel is just so nice.
Truth be told, Rebecca Minkoff’s crossbody bags were some of the first we ever purchased in middle school (fun fact: the same two, in both brown and black, are hanging on our purse organizers as we type). That said, its Edie Top zip Crossbody is one of the best investments you’ll make for more than $100 off.
In its signature print, the COACH Coated Canvas Bag is yours for the taking this Anniversary Sale, thanks to its on-trend shoulder design and nearly $100-off price point. Its contrasting shades of brown are a nice touch, too.

When we think of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, we think of parent-loved brand Nuna going on truly phenomenal sales, as is the case with its PIPA urbn + TRVL Stroller & Car Seat Travel System. We can’t get over its $200+ markdown, either, and it just so happens to be one of the best car seats we reviewed.
For less than $200, save on the Maxi-Cosi Minla 6-in-1 High Chair. Its neutral aesthetic and secure design make it a top choice among other high chairs we rounded up, and its easy-clean tray is a nice touch.
