NSale 2023 Hits & Misses: Denim & Bottoms
The 2023 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is officially here, and we’ve been elbow deep in trying the pieces so you don’t have to! We’re sharing what was a hit and what was more of a swing and a miss in today’s post, specifically for denim and bottoms! Don’t forget to join the LIY Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Facebook Group where there are nightly giveaways happening!
PS You can check out Erin’s FULL Hit’s & Misses blog post in one spot right here!
PSS Consider THIS your NSale headquarters, with all the content in one spot!
If you have been shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale already, you may have missed a thing or two, but have no fear – you have until August 6th to purchase the products at a major discount. After that, prices will go back up to normal.
ANNIVERSARY SALE SHOPPING TIPS & TRICKS
- Anything that you love and want for yourself, add to your wish list and check out once the sale is live for your card level [reminder: if you don’t have a card, the public sale starts July 17th]! If it isn’t currently available in your size and color preference, things are always coming in and out of stock, so check back often!
- Remember that Nordstrom always offers free shipping and free returns! Because of this, I would recommend ordering two sizes on things you are unsure of, to make sure that you can get it at the sale price and return the one that doesn’t work!
- Some of the items I mention may currently be out of stock, but check back often for restocks! We’ll also be notifying you of restocks over on our Facebook page and #NSALE group [highly recommend joining the group for a ton of helpful info and nightly giveaways!]
- Keep in mind that while the sale lasts until 8/6, things go quick so don’t be like N*Sync and have to say “bye, bye, bye” to everything before it’s gone – shop early!
- If there’s anything I didn’t cover and you still have questions, ask away below and I’ll answer right here so check back! For more Nordstrom Anniversary Sale posts, click here!

I just didn’t love where these pants hit me! I had them on my wish list and wanted to love them so badly, but it just wasn’t it! I also found it tricky to figure out what shoes to pair with them!

Open Edit Mock Neck Rib Sweater [Size up, wearing in L] / Free People Pants [Size down if between, wearing in M and still very roomy] / Sam Edelman Viv Pointed Toe d’Orsay Pump [TTS]
I had such high hopes for these pants, but those pleats are facing the wrong direction to be flattering on my frame. Talk about highlighting the crotch!
Halogen Wide Leg Trousers [true to size, wearing XS]
As much as I loved these trousers, they were just way too long for me at 5’4″! Even in heels!

FP shorts on sale during the anniversary sale? WIN. A skort that feels like I’m a walking pack of tissue paper? Fail. 😂
Levi’s Ribcage Ribbed Ankle Straight Leg Jeans [size down, wearing 25]
While I’ve loved these jeans on others and was inspired to try them, the overall fit did nothing for my body type and I didn’t find them comfy!
