https://bit.ly/2DprHAfToday the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 goes live to Nordstrom cardholders, so here are 15 of my favorite clothing pieces from the sale, and how to style them.

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is open to cardholders today!

This morning at 8:30am CST the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens to cardholders. Yay!

If you want to shop today, you can sign up for a Nordstrom Card and begin shopping right away. Otherwise the sale opens to everyone next Wednesday, so you’ll just be able to add things to your “wishlist” til then. The breakdown of when everyone can shop is in THIS POST.

I chose 15 favorite pieces and styled them in a bunch of different ways

I scoured the sale, shopped in person, ordered things online, and these are my top 14 items. I’ve included which size I’m wearing, plus sizing suggestions, and also outfit ideas.

1. Good American Jeans

  • wearing size 0 
  • normal jean size is 26
  • size down one size

These jeans were my favorite skinny pair that I tried on in the sale. Super stretchy, very flattering on the booty, a nice not too high of rise, and the perfect cropped length. They also are made for curvy girls, so you won’t have to worry about gaping at the waist — woohoo!

Also the material is a nice sturdy but stretchy denim, and they DO NOT stretch out and sag as you wear them. They’re a little pricey still, but worth the investment in my opinion!

2. Black Treasure and Bond Bootie

  • wearing size 8
  • fit true to size (they’re snug at first, but they soften up after one wear)

Out of all the booties in the sale, these black croc leather ones are my favorite. They’re low heel, so they’re easy to wear for everyday, they are slim fit and almond toe so they’re super flattering for your foot, and they’re easy to dress up because of the cool shiny black croc leather.

3. Cream Longline Cardigan

  • wearing size XXS
  • runs very big – size down at least one size

I did a try-on of cardigans yesterday on my blog and THIS ONE was one of my very favorites. It’s super versatile, great soft material, flattering shape, and comes in a few colors.

4. Waist Twill Ankle Pants

  • wearing size 2
  • runs slightly large. Typically I’m a 2-4 in pants like this.

When I tried these cute BOW FRONT PANTS on, I was shocked at how much I loved them. They fit like a dream, and they’re great for work.

5. Striped Long Sleeve Tee

  • wearing size XS
  • Fitted, stick to your normal size

I bought THIS TEE during the sale last year and it’s a fantastic one. Super stretchy, and great by itself or layered under sweaters or jumpsuits in the fall and winter. This is a closet staple item.

6. Polka Dot Swing Top

  • wearing size XS
  • Runs big — size down! It has a loose and oversized fit

I didn’t expect to love THIS TOP as much as I do! It’s a great wear now/wear later kind of top, and can be tucked in, half tucked, or fully untucked. All are great options.

7. Satin Jogger Pants

  • wearing size XS
  • Runs big – size down. I usually wear smalls in pants

THESE JOGGERS were another unexpected favorite! They’re so fun and bold without being loud. Since they’re olive, they’re neutral and easy to wear. Also I dressed them up and down for you so you could see how versatile they are.

8. Quilted Faux Suede Moto Jacket

  • wearing size XS
  • runs pretty TTS. Stretchy, so size down if in between sizes

There are two great suede Moto jackets in the sale this year, and THIS ONE was my favorite of the two. I actually own the other one (and love it), but it’s much more stiff and heavy. THIS ONE is buttery soft, stretchy, and so comfy. It’s like wearing a sweatshirt, but it’s a jacket!

9. All Day Tee

  • Wearing size XS
  • The best short sleeve tee from the sale. Soft and stretchy and a good fabric. Also under $12.

Of the few short sleeve tees in the sale, THIS ONE is the best. It’s soft and a nice material. The others have fabric that’s clingy, or the tee is too long. Just size down in this one — it already has an oversized fit!

10. Black Zella Leggings

  • wearing size XS
  • runs big – size down

If you don’t own a pair of Zella leggings, what are you waiting for? They are AMAZING. I like them for running in the winter (they’re thick and warm), but also for everyday. The brushed fabric makes them super easy to wear without looking like you’re going to the gym.

11. White Adidas Sneakers

  • wearing size 8
  • true to size, very comfortable

My new favorite sneakers are part of the sale! I just bought these a few weeks ago and I’ve been wearing them non stop. They’re super flattering, and comfortable.

12. Leopard Slide On Mule

  • Wearing size 8
  • Runs a tiny bit small – size up 1/2 size!

Every girl needs a pair of leopard flats in her closet. These ones are super good. They’re a little stiff at first, but they soften up! Also the leopard print is more of a polka dot and I love how it feels modern but still classic chic. Make sure you size up.

13. Spanx Full Coverage Bra

  • wearing 34 C
  • runs true to size

This is THE WORLD’S MOST COMFORTABLE UNDERWIRE BRA. Trust me on this. It’s super supportive, the straps are wide and stretchy, and the back is literally the most comfortable back a bra could have, with thick stretchy elastic. If you’re looking for a good bra, check this one out.

14. Striped Pajamas

  • wearing size small
  • runs a little big, but I size up cause they shrink a bit

I get a pair of these pajamas every year. They’re buttery soft, lightweight, and always come in a few pretty colors. I got a size XS last year and they shrunk a bit in the wash so the pants got a little short. This year I sized up to a small so I didn’t deal with that issue.

15. Black leather jacket

  • wearing size 2US
  • runs big, size down one size

I did a leather jacket try on yesterday and out of the four I shared, THIS LEATHER JACKET was the best for the price. THIS JACKET was my very favorite, but it’s 4 times the price, so if you’re looking for a more affordable option, this is your jacket.
