Nearly anyone I ask will say fall is their favorite season. Little compares to the first refreshing, cool breeze we feel after a long, sweaty summer. As we start thinking about getting our booties and cardigans out of storage, we can practically already smell pumpkin spice in the air.
What I can also count on every year is opening up my storage bin of sweaters only to find outdated trends and strong adversity to my fashion sensibilities of last year. By the time I have these thoughts, sales are usually over and quality sweaters are marked up to the point at which I end up reluctantly end up making do with what I have — till this year.
This time around, I've vowed to be smart with the closet upgrades I make, from essential (faux) leather jackets on cool fall nights to fun, trendy sweaters and the staple pair of nude booties I'll pair with just about every outfit. Most importantly, I'll be doing it all well in advance, which is why the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale comes in so handy.
When it comes to essentials that have to keep me warm, quality is paramount for me — and when you're shopping Nordstrom's high-end, luxury brands, that's never something I have to worry about, but the sale is the best time to really justify those purchases. Here are the best deals on fall essentials you absolutely have to check out if you're planning a fall closet upgrade:
