If you’re looking for a post-holiday weekend pick-me-up, a little shopping could certainly be the answer. You’re in luck: the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2025 is just around the corner on July 12—but if you’re a cardholder, you can get early access to all the best deals starting as soon as July 8 depending on your membership tier. (And let’s not forget that Prime Day is also taking place this week!) Naturally, Vogue editors have their own wish lists for the sale. And since the full event is slated to run through August 3, they’re worth taking a look at now to plan your own purchase (even if you’re not a Nordstrom member) to make sure you don’t miss out on any of the best deals.

(Over here at Vogue, we certainly aren’t wasting any time stocking up on investment-worthy pieces to add to our closets.) That includes plenty of beauty deals and luxe skincare, too. We found makeup essentials and travel-sized kits to stock up on before your next vacation.
The clock’s ticking to the official start date, but with already plenty to choose from, read on to find out exactly what pieces Vogue’s editors are snapping up from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2025.
Talia Abbas, associate shopping director
“The fates seem to be in my favor right now as I’ve found some great summer pieces that I’ve desired for a while. Róhe’s lace-trim skirt and Toteme’s kitten heels are perfect to wear now into fall—I have visions of styling them in a multitude of ways already.”
Kiana Murden, senior beauty commerce writer
“I’m moving this month, so decorating my new space is basically the only thing I can think about that right now. I cannot express how eager I am to bring my Pinterest board to life, and finally have a housewarming. In the spirit of hosting more, Le Creuset’s dutch oven is a need—to perfect my short rib recipe! But when things are on sale, I can’t help but do a bit of personal shopping too. I need a non-white sneaker, and love the Adidas SL 72 style—perhaps paired with a summery dress—and Breda’s red-faced watch. While I’m at it, I’m planning on stocking up on my beauty necessities. I’ll need lots of Shiseido’s Benefiance cream to help smooth out the expression lines I’m sure I’ll get after stressing about my art and curtain rods are hung perfectly level.”
Libby Jane Page, shopping executive director
“American Love Story has me scrolling through all my favorite Caroline Bessette Kennedy pieces I wish I could purchase; her wardrobe remains one of the most iconic of all time and she was a Manolo woman through and through. Meanwhile, I have had these Toteme kitten heels on my wish list since last year.”
Sache Taylor, events director
“I’ve never owned anything from Khaite—but as I step into my 30th year, I think it’s about time I change that. The Webster dress feels like the perfect place to start: sleek, sculptural, and just dramatic enough (for me) to mark a new chapter.”
Leah Faye Cooper, digital style director
“The other day while I was walking home in my go-to pair of platforms, my left shoe broke; the platform just… detached from the upper part of the sandal. I am still reeling from what was a rather humbling wobble home, and also mourning the loss of those shoes, but I’ll feel better when I have a new pair like these.”
Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty and wellness editor
“I’ve long admired Erdem’s ultra-feminine with an edge designs. This dress is airy and floaty but still pretty and pink—just how I want to dress in the heat of summer.”
Laia Garcia-Furtado, senior fashion news editor
“A little black dress is a classic for a reason, but this shift version by Commission—complete with backwards label and fold lines—has the added bonus of being ineffably cool.”
Concetta Ciarlo, beauty commerce writer
“Nordstrom’s sale of the year? Count me in. Searching for new arrivals in the sale section is my version of high fashion extreme couponing. While my Roman empire is an assortment of luxury items I won’t buy on a casual weekday, I can’t think of a better time to indulge. From Staud dresses I’m eyeing (and I’m a known Staud-a-holic), to funky jewelry picks like these stackable rings. I also just inherited a gorgeous new sculptural wood coffee table and end table from my friend who’s moving to Paris (thanks, Sofia!)—it inspired me to amp up my overall home decor, even upgrading my beauty sleep with silk pillowcases. In the midst of scrolling, there’s always room to stock up on beauty products and necessities like a fresh makeup brush set.”
Kaite Henwood, audience development associate director
“After years of trying several different denim brands and many shapes, cuts, and crops, I have finally found my go-to brand for all of my jeans: Agolde. This pair is perfectly baggy and features a v-waist cut for a fun twist. It’s on sale and at the top of my shopping list! ”
Elly Leavitt, shopping lifestyle editor
“A recent trip to Paris (and, more specifically, an experience with the baggage handlers at Charles de Gaulle) has left my beloved checked suitcase dented and on its last legs. I’m currently looking for a replacement, and this spinner from Away ticks all the boxes; as do Rag & Bone’s berry-colored sneakers for breezing through TSA. I’m also in the market for some new sheets, and Parachute’s lightweight organic cotton set seems perfect for New York’s heatwave.”
Fred Sahai, associate commerce producer
“I love shopping Re/Done for basics, and have been eyeing this cardigan of theirs. It’s a little more fitted than the Agnès B snap cardigan, which I often use for layering. I think this Re/Done one would be great on its own during the warmer months with denim cutoffs or a slip skirt. And I’ll be keeping my eyes peeled for the perfect ballet flats.”
