In the past few weeks, I’ve covered my favorite shoes, home decor items, and my personal favorites under $100 from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. However, today I wanted to share a few last-minute picks that are still in stock and would make for a great addition to your wardrobe. 

Below, I’m sharing some items that I currently own from the sale, and a few of my favorite day dresses that are still in stock from the NSale!

Even though we might still be working from home this fall, I think snagging a dress during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is a solid bet. After all, you still need to look good from the waist up for all of your Zoom calls, and they’re the perfect item to throw on and go! I’ve been living in dresses this summer, and I know I’ll continue to do so in the fall.

I rounded up some of my favorite dresses that are still in stock, and there are some gems here! I love this midi sweater dress: a great piece to throw on while running errands, and also something you can easily layer and transition into fall. I’m also a fan of this ruffle dress: the print is super fun, and you can dress this down with sneakers and a denim jacket, or dress it up with some heeled booties and a fantastic bag!

I bought this sweater when it wasn’t on sale last year, and it ended up being one of the most versatile pieces in my closet (you can see it styled with a dress here!) It’s currently sold out, but if it comes back in stock before the sale ends, I would highly recommend snagging it. It’s cropped at the perfect length to wear with either jeans and skirts or layered over dresses!

Last year, I finally caved and got the Spanx Faux Leather Leggings, and my friends: they do not disappoint.

I was afraid that they would be uncomfortable, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. I live in these come fall/winter, and they’re incredibly flattering. I typically wear a size 28 in jeans, and the size medium fits me perfectly!

The All in Favor PR team graciously gifted me this cozy top before the sale launched, and I think it will look amazing paired with skirts and denim this fall! I definitely see myself wearing this on repeat. While sadly this style sold out, I would recommend checking out some of the All in Favor items from the sale as well — they’re all under $100, yet the quality is exceptional!

My favorite purchase from the sale? It has to be the Nordstrom Moonlight Pajamas. This is the second year in a row that I’ve snagged these PJs, and they’re one of my favorite sets to wear and lounge in. I am also blown away by these UGG slippers — I don’t know how it’s possible for them to be so comfortable! Both of these cozy items would make for the perfect gift for you or a loved one!.
