Tip 1-Know what you need- I do regular closet clean outs, but before this sale, I like to go through my cold-weather wardrobe and pull out what I'm no longer loving (I sell or donate these items). I look for "holes" in my wardrobe; pieces I've wanted for a while or items that would help me pull more outfits together. I like to purchase items that I'll get a ton of wear out of. I personally look for a great pair of boots in the sale because they're always high quality, comfortable, and I'll live in them during the colder months.
Tip 2-Set a budget- It's easy to get carried away with a sale like this, especially one that so many of us shop and post about. Even though there are great deals, you don't want to spend more than you have and pay interest on your credit card! I like to set aside a little money throughout the months prior, and I also carefully keep track of my online orders and in store visit(s). I usually limit myself to one trip in store! It's easier to get distracted and be more impulsive in store than online, at least for me. I love Nordstrom's online wish list feature, which basically lets me bookmark items and think it over, before adding it to my cart. This year, I printed it out and brought it in store where a delightful associate helped me find my items!
Tip 3-Make it a date- You can absolutely make this a fun day for you and your girls, but sometimes its nice to take yourself on a little date and just focus on you. I enjoy this time by myself. This is my big shopping adventure for Fall, so I want to enjoy it, get what I really love, and treat myself to a little lunch. I have to mention, that this Chicken Caesar wrap from Nordstrom's Cafe is delicious and worth trying!
Tip 4- Take the plunge- A lot of people tend to think that Nordstrom only carries expensive brands, but that's far from true! They are a quality retailer with an amazing selection. The service is great and everything is easy to find. I recommend checking it out, especially during the sale. The greatest thing I think they offer are free shipping and returns. Even if I buy a piece during the sale, if I don't love it, I return it in store without any hassle!
Here are some of my top picks:
