Whether you're heading on a long-haul flight or just to the office, Longchamp's totes are a go-to tote bag for many fashion girls. Case in point: Princess Kate Middleton is a longtime Longchamp fan and often sports her brown Le Pliage tote while out and about. This on-sale find expands in the middle for even more packing room when you need it.
Don't make the mistake of heading on vacation without packing at least one pair of sunglasses. Quay Australia is a celebrity-loved sunglasses brand with Jennifer Lopez, Kendall Jenner, and Kristen Bell as fans so you know they're of top-notch quality.
No matter where I'm headed, I always make sure to pack at least one button-down shirt like this. You can wear it over a tank top or T-shirt, tucked into jeans, or tied into a crop top—the styling possibilities are vast and varied. You can even wear it as a chic bathing suit cover-up.
A travel purse, preferably a crossbody bag, is an absolute must for any getaway. This sleek bag will keep you going hands-free on busy days and your things secure with its zip-top closure and zip internal pocket.
You can do better than a plastic baggy for storing your jewelry. Opt for this travel-friendly jewelry box, which is lined in a soft material to prevent scratches and will keep your precious pieces organized.
Wardrobe basics like this T-shirt are the ideal pieces to pack on a long vacation. It pairs expertly with jeans and linen pants. Because of the cropped length, it also works with high-waisted shorts and skirts—a versatile piece if I've ever seen one.
I can never have too many pockets while I'm traveling. I need secure places to store my passport, snacks, headphones, and other essentials. These comfy pants have plenty, not to mention they're cute!

On one fateful flight, I forgot my eye mask and it's a mistake I'll never make again. Not only does this set come with an eye mask and a handy case, but it comes with three hair scrunchies. Everything is made from fine Mulberry silk, which is hypoallergenic and easier on your hair than traditional hair ties.
A great carry-on bag like this might be the most essential item for your travels. It has an extra-durable hard shell and TSA-approved locks to keep your things secured. It also has 360º spinner wheels, making runs through the airport a breeze.
Best Shoe Deals on Nordstrom
I probably set a record for how fast I added these shoes to my cart. The square toe and baby heel make these flats feel so much more luxurious than their under-$100 price tag.
You'll never get tired of having these classic white sneakers in your closet. Whether you wear them with jeans, a summer dress, or your favorite loungewear, they'll pair seamlessly with your look.
In case you're in the market for some fresh tennis shoes, this pair is about as comfortable as they come. With extra-cushioned sole, a staple base, and lightweight feel, these shoes will feel like you're walking on clouds (hence the name) with every step. Plus, Zendaya is a fan.

Want to tap into the flip-flop trend? Not only are these a stylish take with the puffy straps and platform soles but they were made with comfort in mind with wide cushioned footbeds.
Mules may be one of the top fall shoe trends of 2024, but I'd argue these will be stylish for years to come. The slender square toe, baby heel, and rich leather fabrication all give these shoes a quiet luxury feel that can be worn for any occasion.
As far as ankle boots go, these are about as classic and wearable as they come. A sleek silhouette, modern square toe, and sensible block heel combine to create a boot that can be worn both day and night with ease. With how often you'll want to wear these, you may want to grab the white and red pairs, too.
These flats combine three fall trends in one—Mary Janes, mules, and the red color trend—so they're a real multi-tasker. The deeper red shade feels like a fresher take on the spring color trend that's been everywhere the last few seasons.
If I had to name one pair of shoes as the quintessential fall boot, it would be these. The cognac brown shade fits right in with the color palette of the season, plus they have a waterproof finish in case you get caught in an unexpected shower.
Fall shoe season is almost here, and loafers are an essential piece of your collection. Add this chunky pair into your rotation for an edgier, tougher take on the age-old shoe.
When Mansur Gavriel goes on sale, you don't let it pass you up. These hybrid shoes combine the ease of ballet flats with the ladylike elegance of pumps to create a versatile, luxurious pair.
Converse sneakers will never not be cool. This neutral pair, though, is even better (and easier to clean) with its all-leather finish. They run the gamut of styling options, too, from jeans and maxi dresses to cargo pants and shorts.
Best Loungewear Deals on Nordstrom
This cute matching set is just what hot sleepers need to get through the summer. They're light as air with a luxurious fine ribbed knit, plus they look so much more put-together than a baggy T-shirt.
Everyone needs a pair of solid black leggings and this pair ticks all of our boxes: they're sweat-wicking, high-waisted, and oh-so-comfortable. Reviews say they hold up well in the wash, too.
As the name suggests, these joggers are so comfortable that you may want to wear them every single day. They have a sleek silhouette and are made from a sweat-wicking fabric so they work just as good for your afternoon workout or run to the grocery store.
It's never a bad time to treat yourself to a new pretty pair of pajamas. Shoppers say this top-rated pair (which comes in six colors and prints) is soft, ultra-comfortable, and breathable, making them a great option for hot summer nights.
Black leggings will never get old, but for summer, opt for this eye-catching pair. They offer great support for all of your workouts but are still comfortable enough to lounge in. Make it a set with the matching top, which is also on sale.
A matching set is the easiest way to feel put together, even if you are just working from home in your PJs. Opt for this cozy set over your baggy T-shirts to add a little more polish to your loungewear. The cardigan is a great bonus to have on hand come fall, too.
Yes, these shorts are thick and cozy but it's the longer hem and luxe rib-knit that make them a real winner. They come in black and rust red and I'm tempted to add both shades to my cart for a more elevated loungewear collection.
You can never have too many sweatshirts, especially when they are as cozy as this one. Choose from five shades and be sure to grab the matching joggers for an elevated, yet comfy look.

You'll never truly be comfortable in a bra that's pinching or digging into your skin. You won't have that problem with this option, though, as it's very comfy. It offers max support for intense workouts and can be converted into a racerback in a pinch.
It's hard to beat the luxurious feel of sleeping in silk pajamas. These ones have an adorable polka dot pattern and lightweight feel, making them easy to pack. Hot sleepers will be happy to know that this set also comes with matching shorts.
To ensure peak coziness, don't neglect your feet. These socks will wrap them in warm bliss and are a must-have for cold winter nights.
You can pop this crewneck sweater on whenever you need an extra layer of warmth. It's made from a lightweight cotton blend, so it's the ideal weight for tricky transitional weather.

For all of my makeup lovers out there, this Supergoop! set should be at the top of your wishlist. The Unseen Sunscreen acts as a pore-smoothing primer that grips your makeup and offers invisible SPF 40 sun protection. When you need to reapply two hours later, you can use the Unseen Sunscreen stick, which glides right over your makeup and soaks up oil.
La Mer is one luxury brand that doesn't go on sale often, so when it does, you should hop on the opportunity. This set is a great way to test out some of their best-sellers or just to stock up on their fan-favorite Soft Cream Moisturizer, which goes for $100 on its own.
This microcurrent device promises a more sculpted, smoother look with consistent use and it delivers. I've been using this exact tool about three times a week for the last couple of months and I'm already noticing a major difference in my jawline. I also like using this at the end of my nightly skincare routine for an extra five minutes of self-care.
This cult-favorite moisturizer is one of team Marie Claire's favorite Bobbi Brown products of all time. It leaves skin feeling plump and dewy, which is the perfect base for a flawless makeup application.
Confession: I'm a chronic pore picker. It's one of those habits I can't seem to beat, but ever since incorporating this Dermaflash device into my skincare routine, my pores are smaller and less congested. Seeing how much gunk this extractor can push out is incredibly satisfying and jaw-dropping.
I'll never stop waxing poetic about my love for Sunday Riley's vitamin C serum. It's the only serum to completely heal my acne scars without irritating my super-sensitive skin. It also sinks into the skin quickly and leaves it with an added boost of moisture. You can bet I'll be getting my hands on this jumbo bottle while I can.
If you've ever wanted a red-carpet-level glow, Augustinus Bader's best-selling cream is your first step to achieving it. The Rich Cream has legions of celebrity fans, including Megan Markle, Jennifer Aniston, and Victoria Beckham. In just one use, your skin will feel baby-soft, and fine lines, uneven tone, and texture will disappear in a few weeks. It's well worth the hype and hardly ever goes on sale, so this set is sure to go quickly.
We gave this cult-favorite eye cream top marks for its intensely hydrating powers. Its formula is packed with good-for-you ingredients like shea butter, avocado oil, and castor oil, while avocado oil works to depuff eye bags. It earns bonus points for working as an exceptional under-eye primer for makeup.
See why nearly every beauty fan I know is obsessed with this nourishing body wash while this great deal is still in stock. A bottle typically costs $25, so you're only paying $7 for another full-size bottle.

The skin on your body deserves just as much TLC as the skin on your face. Treat yourself to this set, which includes two full-size bottles of Osea's best-selling body lotion. Think of them as a hydrating anti-aging serum for your body with a formula full of fruit oils and Alaria seaweed to soften and firm the skin. In a few weeks, your skin will be glowier, smoother, and tighter.
In case you didn't know, Miley Cyrus and Alix Earle both trust Dolce Glow for their flawless tans. Now you can achieve their glow from the comfort of your own home with this set, which includes the brand's best-selling self-tanning mousse and application mitt.
An oldie but a goodie, Clinique's Dramatically Different moisturizer has been around for ages now and remains a fan favorite. It's a no-fuss formula free of fragrance, parabens, and other irritating ingredients that absorbs quickly and delivers lightweight hydration. No wonder some reviewers call it the "perfect" moisturizer.
There's a Jo Malone perfume for every scent preference and this set will help you discover it. It includes five of the brand's best-selling fragrances, even the Meghan-Markle-approved Wood Sage and Sea Salt. Come the holidays, this would be a great set to have on hand for gifting or to pack on your winter getaways.

As someone with subpar eyeshadow skills, I swear by Bobbi Brown's eyeshadow sticks. Every one I've tried is as creamy as can be, super blendable, and long-lasting. This set comes with two shimmery shades and a matte option so you can create a range of looks for day to night.
I've tried my fair share of eyebrow products and the brand I always return to is Anastasia Beverly Hills. The eyebrow pencil has the tiniest tip to create hair-like strokes, while the definer is my go-to for filling in any sparse areas. To top it all off, the brow gel keeps my eyebrows in place for hours.
This set includes one of the best eyebrow growth serums on the market, not to mention one of team Marie Claire's favorite eyelash growth serums, so rest assured this is a worth-it buy. Each serum is full-size and typically retails for over $100 each, making this one set a can't-miss deal.
Add this set to your cart ASAP if you haven't enjoyed trying Armani's Eye Tint liquid eyeshadow. We gave it top marks on our ranking of the best liquid eyeshadows for its intense pigmentation and crease-free staying power. This set also includes a top-rated mascara that delivers significant volume and lift.
One of these mascaras typically costs $34, so to get another full size for just an extra $3 makes this one of the best beauty deals I've seen on Nordstrom so far. Because of its buildable volume and incredible definition, we rated this Lancôme pick as one of the best mascaras ever.
Mac's Ruby Woo is considered one of the best lipstick shades for fair skin tones, so if you've ever wanted to conquer a red lip, this set has it all. Celebrity makeup artist Elaina Badro previously told Marie Claire, “MAC Cosmetics in 'Ruby Woo' is an all-time favorite. It's super matte, too, so it'll last all day on the lip!” And if red is too loud for you, there's two other pretty pink shades available, too.
There's a reason this setting powder has a cult following. I have perpetually oily skin, but when I use this powder, my makeup stays shine-free for hours on end and it never slides off. I can always count on it to be truly translucent in photos, too.
Pack these little tubes on your next vacation for an easy, on-the-go glow. This travel-friendly bronzer and highlighter duo can be used on the eyes, lips, cheeks, nose, and anywhere else you want to sculpt and accentuate.
Tom Ford makeup products feel as luxurious as they look. Marie Claire's beauty editor Samantha Holender says she constantly receives compliments when wearing the brand's Eye Color Quad, adding, "The impact is unmatched and the wear is flawless." She also says the Lip Color lipsticks have a "top of the line formula" making this set an all-out winner.
We're in the heyday of summer, so glowy, lit-from-within makeup is all I want to wear. This set creates just that with a shimmery coral-tone blush and a multi-use liquid highlighter. You can use them alone on the high points of your face or mixed in with your favorite foundation for added radiance.
Nars' naughty-named blushes are iconic for a reason—they're highly pigmented, long-wearing, and leave the prettiest glow. This set includes two full-size(!!) blushes in universally flattering shades that are perfect for summer.
This liquid eyeliner set will have you achieving the sharpest lines possible with its ultra-slim felt tip. Reviews say it's easy to apply, too, even if you're a novice.
In these hot and sweaty temperatures, a good setting spray is a must to ensure your makeup stays intact all day long. This Mac set does just that. It includes the best-selling original Fix+ setting spray for a long-lasting hydrating finish. Then if you really want to seal the deal, you can use the Fix+ Stay Over for extra staying power.
This on-sale find has long been hailed as one of the best under-eye concealers ever. You only need the tiniest dab to achieve full coverage, so one tube is going to last you a long time. It's waterproof, hydrating, and especially great at hiding dark circles and blemishes.

At $25 off, this is a great deal on a cult-classic shampoo. It's one of the best shampoos out there for dry hair, with amino-acid-rich formula. It gently cleanses hair to feel fresh, while adding bounce and softness. Don't forget to pick up the conditioner, too.

If your dry, damaged hair is in need of some serious TLC, this set will be your saving grace. With daily use, the hair growth oil will have your hair feeling thicker and looking shinier in just three months. Meanwhile, the intensive treatment mask strengthens your scalp while nourishing your hair from the inside out. Essentially, this set is your one-way ticket to healthier, stronger hair.
With over 1,000 reviews, it's safe to say Nordstrom shoppers love this conditioner. Its formula is 97 percent plant-based and the added rosemary, peppermint, and spearmint will make your scalp feel refreshed and invigorated.
Which Brands Will Be On Sale?
Some of team Marie Claire's favorite brands are included in the sale, like Farm Rio, Free People, Levi's, Rag & Bone, and many more.

What Is The Difference Between The Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale and the Anniversary Sale?
While Nordstrom typically has a rotating stock of sale items year-round, the retailer throws two main sales throughout the year: the Half-Yearly Sale and the Anniversary Sale.
The Half-Yearly Sale is a smaller biannual event typically occurring in late May (usually around Memorial Day) and late December after the holidays. The Anniversary Sale, in contrast, only happens once a year during the summer. Both sale events offer hundreds of deals, but the Anniversary Sale is when you can get more bang for your buck with steeper discounts offered than the Half-Yearly Sale.
