My Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Try on Haul

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Try OnI’m excited to share that my Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Try On haul has arrived. I’ve pulled together a shortlist of what I bought from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020. Cardholders who have at least Ambassador Status (spend $5,000+ per year), can officially start shopping today! If you don’t know your status, you can check here.

Members of my secret Facebook Group or followers on Pinterest know I gravitate towards more neutral basics and pieces that can give me a lot of wear throughout the year. So if that’s you’re vibe too, you don’t want to miss these sale finds.

I got to try on items from the sale early and get my hands on a lot of the products. And though it didn’t impress me quite like years past (super bummed about the blazer selection), I still found some noteworthy pieces that will be good additions to my closet.

Sizing was a little off this year on a few of these pieces. Since many of you shop online, I put sizing notes below.

What are you most excited about from my Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 try on? Let us know in the comments below or see what everyone else is talking about in our Facebook Group! XX Ashley

RAILS ELLIS COTTON SHIRT

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Try On White Shirt Jeans

There’s nothing more classic than a white button-down shirt. Be sure to size up if you want the oversized look. 

Rails Ellis Cotton Shirt (Fit: size up if you want it oversized. I’m in a large.) | Rag & Bone Nina High Waist Ankle Jeans (Fit: I found these to run small. I sized up in these.) | Nude Pumps (This exact pair is old, but the Charles David Maxi Pointed Toe Pump is very similar) | Gold Thumb Ring | Gold Signet Ring

TOPSHOP RIBBED OPEN FRONT CARDIGAN

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Try On Open Cardigan

Nothing beats a good pair of leggings and an oversized cardigan. This look might be my uniform come fall. And if we ever get to travel again, this would be the perfect airport/road trip outfit. 

Topshop Ribbed Open-Front Cardigan (Fit: This runs a little big, I am in an x-small) | Spanx The Perfect Black Pant Back Seam Skinny Pants (Fit: I am in a small. These are really thick and supportive.) | Commando Butter Scoop Neck Bodysuit (Fit: TTS, I’m in a small. I love this bodysuit! The material is incredibly soft and flattering.) | Nike Air Max 270 Premium Sneaker (Fit: TTS) | Gold Thumb Ring | Gold Signet Ring

TREASURE & BOND PLAID ONE-BUTTON BLAZER 

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Try On Blazer

It’s no surprise a blazer found its way into my Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 try on haul. This one has an exceptional fit and will give you that “boyfriend” look. Highly recommend it! 

Treasure & Bond Plaid One-Button Blazer (Fit: I am in a small) | Topshop Long Sleeve Square Neck Bodysuit (Fit: I am in the 6 – fits like 2/4) | FRAME Le Original Ripped High Waist Crop Jeans (Fit: If in-between sizes, take the bigger size) | Nude Pumps (This exact pair is old, but the Charles David Maxi Pointed Toe Pump is very similar) | Gold Thumb Ring | Gold Signet Ring

CASLON HOODED UTILITY JACKET

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Try On Utility Jacket

This jacket is the ultimate “fall staple”. The hood is detachable, so you can opt to leave it on or remove. I love the relaxed fit too. 

Caslon Hooded Utility Jacket (Fit: I’m in a small and it has a relaxed fit) | FRAME Le Original Ripped High Waist Crop Jeans (Fit: If in-between sizes, take the bigger size) | Topshop Long Sleeve Square Neck Bodysuit (Fit: I am in the 6 – fits like 2/4) | p448 Skate Glitter High Top Sneaker (Fit: TTS, I got the 39EU and they were actually really comfortable. The glitter is a little scratchy at first if you don’t wear socks.)

TOPSHOP LONG SLEEVE SQUARE NECK BODYSUIT

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Body Suit

This bodysuit surprised me. For $15 I honestly expected something really thin and cheap, but this one is the opposite. It’s incredibly flattering and I love the ribbed material. 

Topshop Long Sleeve Square Neck Bodysuit (Fit: I am in the 6 – Fits like 2/4) | FRAME Le Original Ripped High Waist Crop Jeans (Fit: If in-between sizes, take the bigger size) | Nude Pumps (This exact pair is old, but the Charles David Maxi Pointed Toe Pump is very similar) | Adina’s Jewels Star Necklace

SPANX Every Wear Active Bike Short 

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Biker Shorts

Biker shorts that don’t ride up or “cut in” to your legs are a must. This pair by Spanx got the job done! Definitely one of the comfiest outfits in my Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Try On.

SPANX Every Wear Active Bike Shorts (Fit: TTS) | Nike Sportswear Fleece Full Zip Hoodie | Nike Air Max 270 Premium Sneaker (Fit: TTS) | Gold Thumb Ring | Gold Signet Ring

TOPSHOP LONG CARDIGAN

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 Long Cardigan

This long cardigan is incredibly soft and has a great fit. Looks great with the leggings and boots. Definitely a must if you live in layers, like me. 

Topshop Long Cardigan | Spanx The Perfect Black Pant Back Seam Skinny Pants (Fit: I am in a small. These are really thick and supportive.) | Commando Butter Scoop Neck Bodysuit (Fit: TTS, I’m in a small. I love this bodysuit! The material is incredibly soft and flattering.) | Blondo Camilia Waterproof Bootie (Fit: TTS)

CHELSEA28 TIERED MIDI DRESS 

Like I mentioned in my IG Stories, this dress surprised me. It has pockets and a really flattering fit. If you are going into the office, this would be a nice work option. 

Chelsea28 Tiered Midi Dress| p448 Skate Glitter High Top Sneaker(Fit: TTS, I got the 39EU and they were actually really comfortable. The glitter is a little scratchy at first if you don’t wear socks.)

HALOGEN DOUBLE FACE WOOL COAT 

Truly, my best purchase from the entire Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. I took an XS in this, so size down. A camel coat is one of the most classic pieces you can have in your wardrobe, this is no exception.

Halogen Double Face Wool Coat (Fit: Size down) | Commando Butter Scoop Neck Bodysuit (Fit: TTS, I’m in a small. I love this bodysuit! The material is incredibly soft and flattering.) | FRAME Le Original Ripped High Waist Crop Jeans (Fit: If in-between sizes, take the bigger size) | Adina’s Jewels Star Necklace

LOUISE ET CIE ESPEN GENUINE CALF HAIR LOAFER 

The exaggerated buckle on these loafers makes these anything but basic. They were actually really comfortable too. I got my normal size! 

Louise et Cie Espen Genuine Calf Hair Loafer | Rag & Bone Nina High Waist Ankle Jeans (Fit: I found these to run small. I sized up in these.)

CREAM CARDIGAN AND JEANS

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 White Cardigan

Topshop Ribbed Cardigan | FRAME Le Original Ripped High Waist Crop Jeans (Fit: If in-between sizes, take the bigger size) | Nude Pumps (This exact pair is old, but the Charles David Maxi Pointed Toe Pump is very similar)

CHELSEA28 OPEN-FRONT CARDIGAN

Chelsea28 Open Front Cardigan (Fit: TTS, I’m in a small) | Spanx The Perfect Black Pant Back Seam Skinny Pants (Fit: I am in a small. These are really thick and supportive.) | Nike Air Max 270 Premium Sneaker (Fit: TTS)

 

Halogen Bow Detail Blouse | FRAME Le Original Ripped High Waist Crop Jeans (Fit: If in-between sizes, take the bigger size) | Nude Pumps (This exact pair is old, but the Charles David Maxi Pointed Toe Pump is very similar)

MY SIZING INFO:

I always get asked about my normal sizing in clothes, so hopefully this helps as you are comparing to my sizing notes above. I feel like sizing was OFF on a lot of the things I bought, FYI. 

Tops: Small 

Jeans: 26/27 

Dresses: Small or 4 

Coats: Small or 4 

Blazers: Small or 4 

Shoes: 8.5 

Thanks for reading! I may do more Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2020 try on hauls or show some different categories. I’m thinking beauty or baby next! xx Ashley
