Yet another Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has come and gone, and we might still be recovering. This once-a-year sale brings us some of the best deals you’ll find, but boy can it be exhausting! We searched the stores, shopped the sale as soon as we could, and reveled in our purchases while trying not to check our bank accounts. Kristy is sharing what she actually ended up with from this year’s haul. See her NSale purchases below!
How fun is this dress?! From the pretty pattern to the delicate details like the ruffled straps and hemline, this is a dress that keeps on giving! The figure-skimming silhouette makes it flattering for all body types, too. Pair it with sandals for daytime and switch to heels for an evening out.
A pair of distressed jeans is a must-have for every wardrobe. This pair hits the mark with a faded wash, “chewed” hems, and a contoured waistband that hugs the body tight without squeezing!
The flare is back, baby, and we are all for it! This medium wash pair of flare jeans adds length to shorter legs, slims thicker thighs, and gives the booty a nice lifted look! *adds to cart*
Ahhhh, boyfriends. What would we do without them?? They’re laid-back, relaxed, and always flattering – yes, we’re referring to the jeans! These boyfriend jeans will become your new go-to…pair with a casual crewneck sweatshirt and classic sneakers for an effortlessly stylish outfit.
There’s nothing quite like a good pair of leggings for the perfect athleisure look. These Spanx compression leggings are sculpting, slimming, AND sweat-wicking…need we say more? Finish the look with this adorable Zella zip-up jacket and your favorite athletic sneakers.
The sneakers that have taken the internet by storm, and with good reason! These On Cloudswift running shoes have a springy foam sole that provide lift, cushion, and overall comfort to your feet no matter the occasion! Wear them for working out, long days on your feet, or just as a cute everyday shoe – you’re going to love them.
And for an athletic shoe that also makes a statement, these Nike Air Max sneakers will do the trick! Not only are they designed with ultimate comfort in mind, they’re also fashion-forward and the perfect complement to your hottest workout gear.
Show off your street style with these Nike platform sneakers. The pillowy, plush interior makes for a shoe you can wear all day long so you can look good and feel even better!
A good pair of sparkling studs is an essential for your everyday accessory collection. These halo earrings are so eye-catching and honestly, who doesn’t love a bit of extra sparkle?!
Okay – definitely a little bit of a splurge, even with the sale price, but this watch is so sleek and such an elegant accessory! The neutral light gray color makes a great match for just about any outfit, and this is a piece that can be worn casually or dressed up…hooray for versatility!
Sunnies are not just for summer! Protect your pretty peepers all year ’round and add instant style to any outfit with a sleek pair of shades. Quay is one of our favorite sunglasses brands here at Frugal and Thriving, and the Level Up style and It’s My Way style, in both oat and tort black, were much-needed additions to the collection!
Simple home updates can make a huge difference in a room – and one of those minor changes is a brand-new shower curtain! This crisp white DKNY tufted shower curtain will instantly brighten up any bathroom.

#NSale Apparel & Accessories
These ruched bodycon dresses are versatile and can be worn year-round. Dress it up for a night out or dress it down for a backyard picnic, and keep it in your wardrobe well into fall and wear with layers! The dress fits true to size (both are size small).
This crisp white button down worn over a ribbed tank is a clean, classic look. Both items are true size.
This fleece shacket is great for layering! Throw it over a bodycon dress and pair it with sandals for a chilly summer evening or wear it with jeans, a tee, and boots on a cool fall day. It is oversized, so size down for a more fitted look.
This white long sleeve tee paired with these Zella high-waist leggings is a relaxed look for summer or fall! Whether you’re running errands or hanging out and working from home, this outfit has got you covered in the comfy department. Both items run true to size.
Add a little edginess to your closet with this faux leather moto jacket. Style it with a cotton t-shirt and these Zella high-waist leggings for a more laidback look, or with jeans and biker boots for rocker vibe. All items are true to size.
This blue hoodie dress is perfect for a day on the boat, a nighttime walk on the beach, or a cloudy afternoon after the pool. It runs slightly large (Kristy is wearing a size small) so size down for a more fitted look.
