The Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale just opened to the public a few days ago. It’s a great chance to stock up on some classic staples, as well as a chance to get a jump-start on new things for the upcoming season at a discounted price. So this week, that’s our focus. As Nordstrom’s sale assortment grows and evolves each year, there are usually some things that are truly great finds. We are sorting through the products to find the ones that will really give you the bang for your buck. We’re on the lookout to avoid things that may be a slightly different quality than usual because they were made specifically for the Sale, and we won’t get caught up in the excitement of a “deal” unless it’s something that will make you feel confident when you wear it – not just savvy that you saved a few bucks.

Sizes and availability do become limited, so if you like something, just click on the “Shop It” button to buy it directly from Nordstrom. And don’t delay because once your size is gone, it’s generally won’t be restocked for the Sale. And it ends August 2nd.

Take a look at a few of our favorites here, and then head over to “Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale: Gents’ Top 20 Picks” for the rest of our top picks. Let us know what you think through the comments section below and on social media. We’d all love to hear about your favorites.
