The 2024 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is in full swing and I have again fallen in love with several of the pieces! This is always one of my favorite and most comprehensive posts each year, filled with style ideas and upcoming trends. Let’s deep dive into the 2024 Nordstrom Sale try-on haul with notes on sizing and quality. I tried on several pieces, and these are my top selections.

Let’s jump into the 2024 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale try-on haul!
2024 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Try-On Haul
Dates to shop: Nordstrom cardholders can shop currently. The sale will open to the public on July 15.
Sizing reference: I am 5’3″. My usual dress and shirt sizes vary between XS and S. My pant size is a 4, or 27 in jeans.
Morgan Midi Sweater Dress
Wow, this dress is a surprise LOVE! It’s a beautiful, modern update to the beloved sweater dress. The buttons are designer-worthy, with porcelain white background, a gold flower and gold trim. Gorgeous! For a date night look, undo the top and bottom buttons and add pumps or tan strappy sandals. For a fall work outfit, style with knee high black boots and a black handbag. This dress fits true to size, I am wearing size small.
Farrah Slingback Pumps
These were one of my top picks in the NSale and one of my first purchases I took home. I love these! I bought these in both plaid and creamy white – you can’t go wrong with any of the four color options. They elongate your legs and slingback heels add a nice trendy touch. The strap is adjustable and they fit true to size.
Cable Knit Sweater Vest
Being in Texas, sweater vests are one of my favorites for our fall weather! They are easy to style – just add jeans and boots – and more suitable for mild autumn weather. This sweater vest has an added flair with the cable knit detail and thicker fabric. It comes available in several color options. Wearing size small, fits true to size. See video.
Pleated Midi Dress
Available in two colors, this pleated dress is the epitome of timeless elegance and sophistication. I love the flattering, waist-defining silhouette making it a versatile choice for various occasions. By simply changing from sandals to pumps, you can easily dress this down or up. Wearing size XS. *Fan Favorite!*
Renew Melange Leggings
These tan heathered leggings are giving Varley aesthetic and quality, but with an affordable price tag. The fabric feels much more expensive, and I love the tan heathered style. Opt for a monochromatic outfit, or layer with brown shearling boots and an oversized sweater in the cooler seasons. I sized up to a medium for a comfortable fit. See video.
Reversible Quilted Vest
Highly recommend! Out of everything I tried on this first day, this vest is one of my top picks. With interior and exterior pockets, an adjustable drawcord, reversible styles and plush fabric, there is no detail left unturned. This has a coveted, semi-cropped length that hits at just the right spot. Buy this early! Wearing size small, fits true to size. See video.
Luxe Lite Half Zip
I really loved every piece in this outfit – including this top. Again, Zella did a wonderful job using excellent fabrics to give this a very elevated, luxurious feel. Its lightweight and moisture wicking. Wear this on its own or as a base layer. Wearing size small, consider sizing up one for a roomier fit.
Rib Sleeveless Sweater
Crafted from luxurious, soft fabric, this piece was a win! I love this specific color, and it comes in additional color options. For a daytime look, pair the sweater tank with high-waisted, tailored trousers and ankle boots, and add a sleek blazer for a polished finish. For an evening ensemble, tuck the sweater tank into a pleated midi skirt and style with heels. This runs small, I sized up and am wearing a medium.
Farrah Slingback Pumps
These were one of my top picks in the NSale and one of my first purchases I took home. I love these! I bought these in Oat multi plaid and the creamy white options. They elongate your legs and slingback heels add a nice trendy touch. The strap is adjustable and they fit true to size.
Bootcut Jeans
These are always one of my favorite Nordstrom jeans! They are budget friendly, slimming and comfortable! I am wearing the regular length, folded at the ankle, in this photo. At 5’3″, I ordered a new pair in petite length.
Smocked Chiffon Midi Dress
These deeper prints are everywhere for the upcoming fall season. This dress is lightweight with a smocked waist and subtle metallic microfiber woven into the fabric. I love the creamy white pumps paired with it for summer. As an elevated styling option for fall, layer on a tailored blazer in a complementary color and add boots in rich, autumnal tones like brown or tan to enhance the fall aesthetic. At 5’3″, this fits closer to a maxi length on me. I am wearing size small, fits true to size.

Cashmere Sweater
The softest and most classic sweater that will not go out of style – this is consistently a top pick of mine each year. The cashmere fabric is so luxurious and will make you want to pull it out of your closet again and again! Wearing size small, fits true to size.
Plaid Flannel Top
A flannel shirt is a quintessential fall staple for me and I loved this option, combining coziness with a touch of vintage charm. Up close, the shirt actually has a soft pink hue, but the dominant neutrals make it easy to style with either black or brown boots. This is such a cute option to throw on with jeans and booties for an easy outfit. For a more polished approach, tuck the shirt into a high-waisted A-line skirt and add knee-high boots. Layer with a cozy cardigan or a tailored jacket, and finish with a statement belt to cinch the waist. Fits true to size, wearing XS. See video.
A-Line Dress
I love the layered, edgy style of this dress! The skirt is faux leather and the top portion is a knit with faux leather collar. If you are wanting something to wear from work to evening events, this is a great option! Pair with black pumps or these slingbacks. Wearing size 0, fits true to size.
Zella Polo Dress
This tennis dress is a match made in heaven with its impeccable quality and chic design! The fabric is comfortable, higher-end and allows plenty of stretch for movement and activities. With pockets and removable undershorts, I will take this in every color! This is friendly for taller ladies, as well. Wearing size small. See video.
Contrast Sweater Dress
Another sweater dress option to embrace moving into fall, this white and black contrast dress can easily transition from work to dinner date. The dress has significant stretch and is bump friendly. The pearl, embellished buttons at a chic detail. Dress up with black strappy sandals or wear in the summer months with white pumps! Wearing size small, fits true to size or slightly big.
Floral Midi Dress
When you put this dress on, you can’t help but smile! The colors are radiant, and a glowing blend that will transition nicely from summer to fall. This features smocking at the waistband for extra stretch and structure. The skirt is flowy allowing easy movement. Wearing size XS.
Ottoman Tunic
The horizontal ribbing on this pullover gives a very elevated aesthetic. I can see myself wearing this as a single layer or as a post-workout layer over exercise tanks. I love the creamy color, and it is also available in pink and black. This has an oversized fit. Wearing XS.
Renew Melange Leggings
These tan heathered leggings are giving Varley aesthetic and quality, but with an affordable price tag. The fabric feels much more expensive, and I love the tan heathered style.

Pearl Jacquard Shift Dress
This was one of the first dresses that caught my eye when I was in the dress section. It is embellished with beautiful faux pearls and includes a bow. Crafted with jacquard fabric, this dress is ideal to wear in all seasons. Style in the summer with contrasting white heels, and black heels in the winter months. Wearing size 2.
Mock Neck Sweater
This sweater is almost sold out in the brown sugar color pictured, but it comes available in a creamy ivory shade. Crafted from a soft, breathable knit fabric, it offers the perfect amount of stretch to ensure a snug yet flexible fit that moves with you throughout the day. The length is slightly cropped, making it easy to style with high rise pants or midi skirts. This has an oversized fit, wearing XS.

Ultra Mini Alpsey Boot
This year’s NSale Uggs did not disappoint! In true Ugg fashion, they are like a cozy hug for your feet. The plush shearling and thicker sole are very comfortable and stylish! I am between sizes and sized up half a size for a comfortable fit. See video.
Live In Pocket Joggers
To say I am obsessed with these joggers is an understatement – I have worn them a few days per week for the past couple years. I originally bought these one size up for pregnancy (which I wore them throughout my entire pregnancy!) and have loved the looser fit. They do overall fit true to size and come available in four colors!
327 Sneakers
I bought last year’s version of these sneakers and wear them often as well. They are a classic! Perfect with everything, from athleisure outfits to wide leg pant styles, these lightweight shoes are ones I love to put on again and again. These are going to be a hot item again in this sale! Fit true to size.
Bonfire Cardigan
Wrap yourself in the ultimate comfort and style with this chunky knit cardigan! This luxurious piece is crafted with the thick cotton, ensuring not only warmth but also elevated style to any outfit. Its oversized, cropped fit and intricate cable knit pattern make it a standout addition to your wardrobe, perfect for layering over your favorite tees or dresses! Love this styled with high rise leggings or denim. Wearing size XS.
