16 fashion deals in Nordstrom’s anniversary sale that are actually quite good (according to stylists) | Life and style

Bombas

Assorted 6-Pack Supima Cotton Blend Ankle Socks

Bombas doesn’t go on sale all the time, so we have to call it out when it does. The seamless socks are famous for their cushiness and built-in arch support band (great for the flat-footed folks). Our writers have recommended them over and over again as their favorite workout socks and gifts for moms, fitness fans and everyone in between. This pack of six in pretty pastel and a Supima cotton blend is 25% off, so you’re getting exactly three socks for free. Karen Yuan, Filter US commissioning editor

Pistola

Lexi Mid Rise Bowed Straight Leg Jeans

Recently, we asked pro stylist Liz Teich how to remove stains from white clothing (spoiler alert: she loves this kit from The Laundress). Freshly armed with this knowledge, now you can grab these white jeans, recommended by another stylist and on sale for 50% off.

Baboon to the Moon

Weekender Bag 34L

“When we asked a serial world traveler for packing tips, she recommended Baboon to the Moon’s 32L duffle bag, which held a whopping three weeks’ worth of stuff on a trip to Australia. That duffle is currently sold out, but the similarly roomy 34L weekender bag is on sale for 41% off. Its light weight, TSA-friendly size and built-in shoe compartment make it a perfect travel buddy,” wrote Karen Yuan, a Filter US commissioning editor, in our main Nordstrom deals roundup.

Beyond Yoga

Space Dye High Waist Midi Leggings

“I wear these unbelievably stretchy and soft Beyond Yoga leggings for just about everything: pilates, resistance training, napping and running errands and after my kid. So at this price of 33% off, I’m adding another color to cart because I can’t think of another pair in my rotation that delivers this same level of comfort and versatility,” writes Filter contributor Marissa Miller in our main guide to the best Nordstrom Anniversary deals.

Good American

Soft-Tech Good True High Waist Straight Leg Jeans

“Denim is becoming less baggy and more tailored, so opt for straight, bootcut or flare jeans if you’re not into higher-volume pants,” Samantha Dawn, a personal stylist, said in our guide to refreshing your spring wardrobe. This pair is made from 93% cotton and boasts five pockets. During Nordstrom’s sale, you can grab it for 30% off.

Silksilky

Silk Square Scarf

$36.50

“Sometimes it just takes a scarf, a cool brooch or one wild print to make your usual clothes feel new again,” Des Awofeso, a style strategist and content creator, said. Right now, you can snag this dainty square style for 15% off. It comes in three colors, but I’d go with the brown floral, as we slowly transition to fall’s warm-toned color palette.

My Asics Nova Blast shoes have carried me through freezing pre-work runs and humid jogs through the streets of Manhattan. Their FF Blast Max cushioning make my feet feel like they’re bouncing on mini trampolines while the lightweight mesh upper makes them breathable enough for summer runs. You can snag them for 13% off in two stylish colorways (I especially like the black pearl pink). Find my review in our guide to shopping the Nordstom Anniversary sale.

Les Deux

Boston Ombre Striped Cardigan

If you’re anything like me, you’re already planning your fall wardrobe. And no fall wardrobe is complete without a few staple knits. Right now, this striped cardigan, recommended by Brian Lamont Daves, the veteran wardrobe stylist, is on sale for 40% off.

“You don’t necessarily need a different shoe for the road and the treadmill,” Kieran Alger, a running expert, told Filter readers. But those trendy running shoes with “big stacks of soft and bouncy midsole foam” don’t tend to feel stable when slamming down on treadmill belts. If you’re seeking a treadmill-friendly pair, Alger recommends the Hoka Mach 6, which uses a still cushiony but less bouncy foam. Already more affordable than its tricked-out counterparts, it’s now 20% off. Karen Yuan, Filter US commissioning editor

Aligne

Mavis Reversible Jacket

For cooler days, “instead of defaulting to denim and leather jackets, switch things up with structured pieces like cropped trench coats or barn jackets”, said Erin Watton, a professional stylist. This jacket is even reversible: one side is a subtle cream, and the other is a lovely autumnal plaid.

Frame

The Reboot Modern Pocket Bootcut Jeans

So, I have a problem: I have worn this pair of leg-lengthening Frame jeans constantly since purchasing them in black last year. I wear them to work, on weekends and even on flights. I may soon start sleeping in them. This is both a testament to their greatness and a sign that I need to do laundry more often. They’ve got a sleek retro cut that makes me feel like Meg Ryan in the 90s when I put them on, and they’re snug but comfortable thanks to stretchy denim. The roomy pockets are also a big plus. I am this close to purchasing the pair in blue now that it’s 33% off. Karen Yuan, Filter US commissioning editor

Bonobos

Everyday Slim Fit Cotton Button-Down Oxford Shirt

“A well-fitting elevated basic will do more than a trend piece. Pieces I like to pull include a more structured tee, a refined polo, or a lightweight button-down with a little bit of texture,” said Avri Bland, a professional stylist, in our guide to the best spring wardrobe upgrades for men. While the linen option she recommended is still full price, the cotton is now on sale for 35% off.
