As a follow up to my last post, I wanted to break down my top five picks from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale now that general access has begun. Basically, the items that I think are really worth considering adding to cart. A couple of tips before you shop; to avoid going overboard, stick to a list of core or “key” pieces to buy from the sale. Add items that are sold out to your wishlist to be notified when they restock. Look at the fabric composition; this is a big one, and the composition should make sense for the item…
It’s that time of the year again… Nordstrom Anniversary Sale for 2024 has officially begun. As has become tradition, I’ve sorted through every page of the sale to share with you my top picks from this year’s event.

There’s a rather tight-knit edit of jewellery brands I reach for daily; Monica Vinader being one, for the way that they elevate the everyday minimal yet sculptural designs. The Nura Reef Bangle is one of my most treasured pieces, that I’d be very quick to add back into my jewellery collection if I were starting from scratch.
