It’s officially here: the Nordstrom Anniversary sale! It’s one of the biggest sale events of the year and, with many fall items deeply discounted, not one that you want to miss.
Below are some of our favorite items from the sale this year. Remember: they sell out quickly so be sure to order items as you find them!
Upgrade your student’s dorm room or bedroom with a wonderfully plush blanket throw available in a wide array of classic and fresh colors.
Hydrocotton Towels
Ultrasoft, ultra-absorbent hydrocotton towels and washcloths that are specially woven for maximum absorbency – great as upgrades for your own linen closet or to buy for a dorm or first apartment.
A beautifully designed electric aromatherapy diffuser offers a new and sophisticated way to fill your teen’s space with the scents they love—simply add water and the essential oil of choice, then turn it on.
Sink into dreamland with a luxe sheet set in smooth, lustrous organic-cotton sateen that includes flat and fitted sheets, along with two pillowcases. And yes, they come in Twin XL sizes.
A large-capacity bottle equipped with a high-flow straw lid is the perfect companion for the trail, the beach or everyday use. This is our favorite water bottle brand and it comes in many colors and sizes.
Be ready for whatever Mother Nature throws your way with a hooded waterproof rain jacket that’s the perfect blend of practical and chic. A hood makes all the difference in a sudden down pour if you’ve forgotten to carry an umbrella.
Great for long runs and dashing off to class, this lightweight, ultra-comfortable Nike running shoe sports a breathable sock upper that laces tight for a stay-put fit.
Stow and go with a lightweight rain boot built from natural, flexible rubber for rollaway packability. Hunter is our favorite brand of rainboots and they will last all four years of college, and then some.
Great as outerwear or as a midlayer, this Patagonia quarter-zip pullover combines a sweater-gauge face with a soft fleece interior for unbeatable comfort and warmth.
A soft Flyknit construction provides a snug, lightweight feel for these high-performance running shoes designed with a foot-stabilizing sole featuring cushy Nike React technology for ultimate comfort over long distances.
This ultra-dependable Patagonia backpack helps you tackle the day with plenty of room for books, a laptop, small tech devices and more inside the two main compartments.
