Today is the day! The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Public Access is now open!  And since everything sells out so fast, I have put together my favorite closet must-haves so you can decide what you need before it’s gone!  Basics are always the most popular items of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, this year being no exception and Nordstrom always has the best selection with the quality you know and expect.  In case you missed it, don’t forget to check out all my top picks and enter to WIN one of 3 $100 gift cards to Nordstrom I’m giving away tomorrow HERE!!!

Here are the five closet basics you’ll love to wear over and over through the next year:

Tee | Jeans | Booties

BP. Raw Edge V-Neck Tee

Sale Price: $11.90 | After Sale: $17.00

Sizing: Runs small — wearing small

I bought this tee in a bunch of different colors (two in white!) because that’s what you do when you find the perfect tee for only $11.  If you order your true size, it will be more fitted than what I am wearing here because I sized up one size for a more oversized look.  It is the perfect lightweight layering tee, and can be worn now and under a cardigan in the Fall and Winter.  The slight v-neck isn’t too low, and it can be worn with a slight front tuck, or tied like I did in the photo on the right!

Tee | Jeans | Cardigan | Booties

BP. Raw Edge Long Sleeve Scoop Neck Tee

Sale Price: $18.90 | After Sale: $29.00

Sizing: Runs true to size — wearing xs

Every Fall I am on the hunt for thin long sleeve tees to layer under scarves and outerwear, and these are perfect!  They are super thin without being see-through and the scoop neck is such a cute and flattering cut.  Just like the short sleeve tees above, I stocked up on lots of colors, both solids and stripes.  My favorites are the black + white combo (above) and the camel + black combo (below), but they sell out really fast so if you see them in your size be sure to snag one!

Tee | Jeans | Cardigan | Booties

AG The Legging Ripped Ankle Skinny Jean

Sale Price: $149.90 | After Sale: $225.00

Sizing: Runs true to size — wearing 25

If you only make one purchase this Anniversary Sale, let it be these jeans!  They are the number one seller for a reason!  The fit of them is perfect on every single girl I’ve seen try them on and the wash can be worn all year round.  They technically are an ankle length, but if you’re a shorty like I am the raw hem makes it so nice.  I just cut them to whatever length I need them with a pair of sharp scissors and I’m good to go!  I love that this year’s version has distressing, and the knee rip hits me in just the right spot!

Cardigan | Cami | Jeans | Booties

Leith Ribbed Shawl Cocoon Cardigan

Sale Price: $45.90 | After Sale: $69.00

Sizing: Runs true to size — wearing xs

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has the best cardigans each year, and this particular one is so good that it’s been around for two years now!  This year’s version is my favorite so far because of the ribbed fabric.  It is so soft and has the perfect amount of stretch to it.  And circle hem makes it more fun than your typical cardigan, but still appropriate to wear to work.  It comes in five color options this year, all of which are perfect neutrals to combine with everything you have in your closet already (I got the tan, charcoal, and brown spice).

Sweater | Jeans | Booties

BP. Textured Stitch Sweater

Sale Price: $25.90 | After Sale: $39.00

Sizing: Runs slightly large — wearing xs

These thin knit sweaters are so soft!  I wish you could reach through the screen and just feel them because they feel so nice and high quality; it’s seriously insane that they are under $25.  They’re thin enough to layer when it gets cooler, and wear now as well!  This year’s version is my favorite yet because of the super cute waffle knit fabric.  I just wore mine with denim shorts the other day (here).  This is another one to buy in multiple colors!!

What are you shopping for today?  Make sure to check out my favorites in every category HERE and snag your favorites quick!  The good things sell out so fast, and these basics are going to very soon!
