42 Summer Fashion Finds From Nordstrom’s Sale Section

Summer dressing hits different — breezy dresses, crisp white tops, and nautical-inspired staples from poplin button-downs to boat shoes (à la the trending fisherman aesthetic) are simply everything. Add in this season’s sandal lineup (Flip-flops! Slides! Kitten heels!) and a color palette spanning butter yellow to powder pink — plus cheery prints like polka dots and stripes — and it’s officially time to refresh the rotation. Luckily, Nordstrom’s Anniversary sale is running from July 12 through August 3 (with Nordy Club members getting early access on July 8), just in time to revamp your summer wardrobe and get you excited about fall. As a fashion editor, I’m always combing through it for the best finds — timeless staples, trend-forward styles, and everything in between. Right now, I’m stocking up on the kind of pieces that make summer dressing feel easy: cute dress-and-sneaker combos, playful bubble hems, airy raffia accessories, fun sunglasses, and standout swim. And yes, I’m still making room for loungewear — just the kind that can handle a heat wave and feel perfectly effortless during summer travel. Plus summer wedding guest dresses, breezy matching sets, and Cowboy Cartner-ready extras.  Click through for 42 of the best summer-ready finds from Nordstrom’s sale — all editor-approved and all worth scooping up before they’re gone.All linked products are independently selected by our editors.
