The Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale is here. There are almost 300 pages in the Women's Sale; I've done the work for you, went through them and curated what I think are the best deals, the best looking items, and the pieces that will have the most lasting style to get your money's worth with a focus on pieces that still have a decent size selection. Below I will have some items with text links but all the picks in that category in a carousel widget. Scroll through, if you see an item you like click on the photo and a separate browser window will open with more detail. Note that some items in the carousel may say sold out; that doesn't mean it's completely sold out but maybe one color. The collages have numbers in them; the corresponding item will have the same number next to it in parentheses.
I always use these sales to get quality activewear for less. Zella is one of my favorite brands for fit, quality, and price and it's often available during the Nordstrom Half-Yearly sale. The Zella Live-In 7/8 Legging is my absolute favorite, I have pairs that are years old that still fit and look new. Here is a link for them in black; this link has three colors and is a style with a pocket. Zella also makes great tops like this athletic t-shirt.
This is a good sale for office wardrobe basics like blouses and shells that look great on their own or under a jacket. This drape top is a classic, and a style I always had in my work closet and would wear year-round. A similarly draped top but this one has a bit of a sleeve. A great sleeveless sweaterthat would work great with work trousers or chino shorts, styled over a white shirt or tee or worn under a jacket. A short sleeve wrap top that creates a great shape and looks chic untucked with work trousers or skinny jeans. A relaxed blouse that looks great untucked with jeans or ankle pants, or tucked into trousers and under a suit (regular and plus sizes). This short-sleeved blouse with a side tuck is so chic and a fab price. A black and ivory brushstroke print shell that's chic all on its own but perfect under a suit or soft jacket.
Scarves are a great buy during sales like this. This one is 100% silk and on sale for less than $35.
Also great deals on bags. I own this fringed statement bag, bought it full price and don't regret it. I've used this same beaded clutch in many capsule wardrobes as it's a perfect way to glam up a suit or black sheath for evening. Blush is a great spring and summer neutral and looks so chic on this leather hobo bag (15).
Footwear
A pair of trendy sneakers keeps you comfortable while looking chic. Pair with pants, jeans, leggings, shorts, and even skirts and dresses. The Nike Cortez is a classic and comes in several colors. I owned these sneakers from Cole Haan – uber comfortable, low profile, and chic.
It's summer, which means it's time for sandals! I'm all about finding the balance between comfort and style and just got these sandals from Native. They're kind of wacky, but have a hint of arch support, adjustable straps, and are lower profile than Birkenstocks. I love these Dr. Scholl's that are made for getting wet and wearing to the pool.
An easy way to glam up is with a sparkly evening twinset. Pair this with a skirt, pants, dressy culottes, or even dark jeans for an elegant effect. (plus sizes only) These pants from Karen Kane would be a great pairing.
