After months of anticipation, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is finally here — and in typical Nordstrom fashion, the deals have already proven to be some of the best of the entire season. The sale officially opened to the general public on July 17, and ends this week on Aug. 6. As shopping editors, we'll be honest — we really don't need the incentive to shop at Nordstrom any more than we already do. On any given week, the retailer is bursting with hundreds of deals that range in everything from markdowns on coveted fashion staples to savings on cult-favorite skin-care products and, if we're lucky, even the occasional price drop on essentials from designer brands like Tory Burch, Favorite Daughter, Gucci, and more.

Fortunately for us (and shopping gurus everywhere), the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale doubles as the perfect opportunity to browse some of the season's hottest products at a fraction of the price. Not only does the savings event boast some of the biggest deals of the season, but it also features some of Nordstrom's biggest markdowns of the entire year — and across all major categories, no less.

We get that the experience of shopping a sale this big might feel a tad overwhelming, which is precisely why we scoured the brand's site and curated our own guide to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale's best fashion deals. From Mother jeans and Birkenstock sandals to savings on bestsellers like trendy sunglasses from Le Specs, Zella workout pants, and a faux-leather BlankNYC jacket that's the ultimate transitional piece, there's something for everyone to shop — regardless of your personal style or budget. Ahead, treat your summer wardrobe to a little refresh and shop our picks for the best fashion deals at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
