Women Are Swapping Their Boring Water For This Ice Pop Electrolyte Mix!
Did someone say sale? Because I’ve never met a sale I didn’t like.
I’ll be the first to admit that “I need this” and “I want this” are two very different categories in my brain, and yet somehow my shopping cart doesn’t seem to know the difference. Honestly, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, which kicks off this Saturday, July 18, is the perfect excuse to let it happen.
Yes, some of these picks (like a great cotton tee) are practical, but others (like the TikTok-viral Clinique Black Honey lipstick) are just a great excuse to treat yourself. Either way, whether you’re shopping for something you’ve been needing for months, or something you never knew you needed until right now, consider this your permission slip to buy it.
Ahead, shop our favorite picks from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, before they inevitably sell out.
Treasure & Bond Cap Sleeve Stretch Cotton & Modal Rib T-Shirt ($22.99)
Your closet called—it needs a good elevated basic just like this one. The rib-knit fabric is a little bit more elevated than your average tee, but it’s still simple enough to wear with literally anything (jeans, trousers, a midi skirt, you name it).
At under $23, it’s a somewhat boring purchase that’s actually a little exciting, because you’ll wear it on repeat all year long.
H&M Cap-sleeved Crinkled Dress ($18.99)
H&M rarely misses, so it makes sense that this dress is a hit. It’s like an impulse buy that also happens to look expensive.
Two practical notes: (1) the crinkled jersey fabric means you can basically stuff it in a bag and it’ll still look intentional, and (2) because it’s gathered at the waist, it does all the shaping work, so you don’t have to think twice about what’s underneath. You can wear it to the office with a blazer, or dress it down with sandals for a weekend brunch and it’ll look great either way.
Melissa Airflow Flip Flop ($29.99)
Every pool or beach day needs a reliable pair of flip flops like these. The Melissa Airflow Flip Flops are water-resistant (hello, poolside puddles), the strap is actually comfortable thanks to the air-filled design, and they smell like fruit, which is always fun. Toss them in your beach bag and don’t think twice!
SAVAGE X FENTY Romantic Corded Lace Unlined Underwire Bra ($39.99)
If anyone knows how to make lingerie look good, it’s Rihanna. This corded-lace balconette bra is exactly the kind of pretty-meets-sexy piece SAVAGE X FENTY does best, with a straight neckline that’s cleavage-enhancing, and lace wings lined with powermesh that make it comfy to wear. It’s proof that supportive and sexy aren’t mutually exclusive.
At just $39.99 on sale, I’m running to buy it!
QUAY Felt Cute 52mm Round Sunglasses ($45.99)
Round sunglasses are everywhere right now, and this pair by QUAY is a great excuse to hop on the trend without overthinking it.
The glossy frames are giving model off-duty energy, and the gradient lenses add a little extra polish without looking try-hard. Plus, 100% UV protection means they’re not just cute, they’re actually doing their job. Wear them poolside, on a walk, or just running errands—they’ll instantly make any outfit look a little more put together.
PURSONIC 7-Color LED Light Therapy Neck & Face Device ($29.99)
If you’ve been curious about red light therapy but aren’t ready to commit to a fancy in-office treatment (or its price tag), this is a low-stakes way to test the waters.
The device combines LED light, warmth, and micro-vibration to give you an at-home version of the spa-like routine your favorite beauty influencers won’t stop talking about. And at under $30, it’s a pretty low-risk way to see if it’s worth the hype for you. Bonus: it’s USB-C rechargeable and travel-friendly, so it can easily become part of your routine wherever you are.
Clinique Black Honey Almost Lipstick & Pop Lip + Cheek Oil Gift Set ($32)
Clinique Black Honey blew up on TikTok last year, and I don’t think it’s going away anytime soon. It’s one of those rare, universally flattering shades that actually lives up to the claim, since the sheer, buildable formula adapts to your natural lip color instead of fighting it. It’s also giving total ’90s throwback, but somehow in a fresh, chic way that doesn’t feel dated at all.
This set gives you double the honey, pairing the original lipstick with the Pop Lip + Cheek Oil (also in Black Honey) for an easy look on both your lips and cheeks. It’s a $52 value for $32, so go ahead and snag it while you still can.
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale runs July 18–August 9. Be sure to set a reminder before all the best deals are gone!
