What I Actually Bought: NSALE 2023
Well, I just did some damage [understatement of the century]. The verdict is in and the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is not healthy for my bank account. Another understatement. Just when I think I am done shopping, I stumble upon something else that I *need* and all of a sudden I’m adding 12 more things to my cart, and well, 129 items later I’m hitting checkout. The point is, I found a LOT to try. And so try I will. While you will look at this list below and think “Erin, why did you ACTUALLY buy ALL of this?” [don’t worry, that is a normal and healthy reaction, and if you didn’t think those thoughts I might be concerned] and while the answer is yes because I need all of it [kidding, I don’t], I like to think of it as “being your official anniversary sale guinea pig”. It is my job to share with all of you what is worth spending your dollars on [and even more so, what isn’t worth spending your dollars on] so consider me a tester of sorts. I buy a lot because it’s product research [and because getting dressed is fun although full disclosure: I’m already sweating thinking about the outfit changes that are about to ensue while it’s 90 degrees and I’m prouncing around in sweaters and boots]. Additionally, without all of these items my annual Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Hits & Misses blog post wouldn’t be possible [here is last year’s for a taste of what is to come]!
In case you aren’t able to shop just quite yet, no worries, you can click around on the items below and add them to your wish list so that when it is go-time for you, you simply add to your cart in one swoop, hit checkout, and wait for Christmas to arrive at your doorstep! Here is a complete list of the shopping dates in case you need that!
Now, let’s get this 2023 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale party started!

I would be lying if I said the athleisure and loungewear didn’t make me the most excited this year! I can’t resist anything with the word “comfortable” in the description.
