Sweaters and Nordstrom Cashmere!
"The prices for this super-soft cashmere are incredibly low, and they make the perfect gifts. Cashmere is a treat, and these are high-quality pieces you'll wear over and over again!"
Jackets and Coats
"Whether you're looking for an everyday puffer, a heavier trench, or a belted wool coat, it's time to find one you love. Now is the time to grab a couple—you'll be glad you did."
Shoes
"Try adding chunky boots to your shoe/boot collection—these will likely become your new go-tos. Or try a pair of stylish booties or loafers—both are on-trend and current."
Jewelry
"You can add to your own collection and pick up a few pieces as gifts for family and friends. Who wouldn't want another chain necklace to add to their stack or a statement ring that's eye-catching and festive? Perfect time to enjoy a little discount on this all-important accessory."
Designer Items
"Many designer brands at Nordstrom put seasonal finds on sale for Black Friday, and the first place I look is designer shoes and bags. Here's a tip: Shop early, like a few days before the sale begins, and add a few things to your cart so you're ready to go!"
