Hi friends! Cue the “Rocky” theme song because it’s go time! The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale early access is here and I gotta say, this year is a really good one. I’ve spent the last two days scouring my local store and browsing all the sale pages to bring to you babes the very best of the best. I’m sharing all of my initial favorites, a huge try-on, sizing details and everything you need to know to win at shopping the #nsale.
I also wanted to thank you all so much for all your love, supporting me and shopping with me! So, I thought it would be fun to do a bunch of *giveaways* throughout the sale. The first one is today! I’m giving away a $100 gift card to Nordstrom and all you have to do to enter is comment on this blog post and tell me what your favorite piece I tired on is!
A quick note for sizing reference: I am 5’3, usually between an XS/S, a 25 in most denim and a size 7.5/8 in shoes. Also wanted to note, that you’ll see me write “TTS” a lot, which just means “true to size”.
I LOVE being a resource for guys and am so honored and excited you came here to shop here! I have a lot of really exciting sale content planned both here on BYOB and on my Instagram, so stay tuned for all the sale goodness. If you haven’t downloaded the liketoknow.it app, I’ll be posting exclusive content there as well. Ok, time to stop talking and start shopping…YASSSSS!
Happy shopping, beauties! xx

Tees + Tops
I fell in love with this brand plaid a few years ago and haven’t looked back! They are so super, fit perfectly and have become staples in my fall wardrobe. They are on the pricier side, so the sale is the perfect time to stock up.
Sizing: TTS, wearing a S. I always size up from an XS in these for a looser more casual fit.

This long sleeve tee is a total closet staple and at this price, kinda a no brainer.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing an XS.

I absolutely love these little lace cami’s! They’re great because you can wear them year round – now with shorts or in the fall with denim and sweaters. They’re so versatile because they can be dressed up or down and are great for layering.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing a small. If you are big busted, I recommend sizing up one size to avoid pulling on the chest.

Sweaters + Cardigans
Denim + Pants
THESE JEANS! I can’t say enough good things. They are definitely one of my top purchases from the whole sale so far. The fit is amazing and they are so flattering.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing my normal size, 25!
— SHOP
The perfect dark wash pair of denim. I’m really pick when it comes to dark washes because I think most of them are just a little off (too blue etc.), but these are perfect! The cut is also so flattering on your legs and sucks you in in all the right spots.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing a 25!
— SHOP
These are a fun twist on a total closet staple! I lived in the classic leather leggings last year (*also on sale, here*) and was so excited to get my hands on the motto version! If you don’t own these, they are a must.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing a small.
— SHOP
I’ve been on the hunt for a great pair of olive denim and finally found the ones! I love that these are still neutral but different than the standard.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing a 25.
— SHOP
My favorite pair of black denim of the sale. They have a cool distressed hem, fit amazingly and are super black.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing a 25.

Dresses
Loungewear
My fave flannel brand came out with PJ’s this year?! YES. These are heavenly!
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing a small.
— SHOP
The softest little PJ set! It also comes in grey. Shop the top here.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing an XS top and small shorts.

Athleisure
Boots + Booties
These were my spurge of the sale and I gotta say, they were worth every penny. I’ve never owned a pair of shoes by this brand but have only ever heard amazing things and now I know why! The soles of the shoes are meant to mold to your feet, making them the yummiest and most comfortable booties ever.
Sizing: TTS, I got a size 8.
— SHOP
Another favorite buy, these over the knee boots are everything!! So flattering and easy to walk in, a major win in my book.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing an 8. I loved these so much I snagged them in two colors.
Shoes.
Coats + Jackets
Another sale FAVORITE of mine! I’m obsessed with cam, so this is a major yes for me. I love throwing it over a basic tee and shorts.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing a small.
— SHOP
This was another best seller last year and will go fast! It’s a great fit and price for the quality.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing an XS.
This is such a great coat! It’s lightweight, thin and easy to pack but super warm. Meredith (my assistant if you’re new), has it, wore it to Iceland and said it was great.
Sizing: TTS, I’m wearing a small.
Accessories
Confession: I already started carrying this bag! I love that it’s crossbody, fits and bunch and it a really classic color.
The prettiest cashmere scarf. It’s the perfect amount of thick if that makes sense? It’s chunky without being TOO much. I also picked it up in the mauve color…it’s that good.
