I Scout Trendy Items for a Living—29 I Found Hiding in Nordstrom's Sale Section
Whether sitting at my desk or lying in bed and scrolling on my phone, I'm always looking for trendy items. It's more than a job for me—it's a lifestyle. So, you can bet that when Nordstrom's biggest sale of the year kicked off earlier this month, I quickly got to work searching for the absolute coolest, most on-trend pieces in the offering. I've been to the retailer's flagship New York City store four times since the sale began to scout pieces in person and have rummaged through the online sale section a dozen times or more.
Fortunately, it wasn't for nothing. This year's sale section is overflowing with finds, from the forever-necessary AllSaints leather jacket that's haunted me ever since I worked at the SoHo store the summer after my sophomore year of college to the sunglasses that Olivia Wilde's been wearing for a majority of 2023. But neither come close to competing with the under-$150 Miu Miu–esque buckle motorcycle boots I discovered. All of the above and so much more are just a click away when you scroll down through my hand-picked curation of the most impressive buys from Nordstrom's epic Anniversary Sale, which ends on August 9.
