I was able to buy from the Anniversary sale today. I bought the Wit and Wisdom wide leg plaid ponte pants. I bought the Kate Spade reversible belt in the floral reverses to black version because I need a new belt. I was torn between the Kate Spade Sam Floral bag and the Kate Spade pink roulette bag. Nordstrom made that decision for me (the floral bag sold out) and I think I ended up with the more practical bag. I love bright colors and that pink is just so fun. I got the kate spade floral wallet so I have a little bit of that fun floral and I think the wallet will be fun with the pink purse. I bought 2 bras I've had luck with before since I have a hard to find size and I bought some underwear. I also got the Save the Duck hooded puffer in Oyster. I was torn between that and the blue Save the Duck, but again Nordstrom made the decision for me. The blue Save the Duck is sold out. I'm unsure how the Oyster will look on me but I love the idea of the cozy lining and the hood. I live in the northeast and don't have a hooded puffer. And there were two more things I definitely would have purchased if they hadn't sold out: Bombas Rose Petal mix ankle socks but my size (small) always sells out and they don't restock it during the sale (at least in past years). They had a Missoni apple watch band 1/3 off. I love rainbows, florals, and bright colors if you couldn't guess. Thanks so much for all of the great advice on this site! It's so helpful to figure out what is worth buying!
*************** update on what worked and what didn't*****************
This Anniversary sale was quite the adventure. My packages were sent by so many different shipping companies. I received one package that was someone else's order, but luckily I was able to reorder the Save the Duck puffer that was supposed to be in the mistaken package. I ended up ordering the blue Save the Duck puffer in two sizes (1 and 2). I ended up liking the blue Save the Duck puffer more than the Oyster one. I think the Oyster one with the lining might be too warm for me in the winter. But I love the blue color of the Save the Duck and the collar up is so fun! I ended up returning the pink Kate Spade because it the handle squeaked when I walked. It wasn't quite as bright as I hoped, so I didn't try to exchange it. But I was able to snag the floral Kate Spade when it came back in stock and I love it! I've always wanted a Kate Spade purse but never found the right one. I think this is it. I grow flowers from seed (hundreds this year) so it's fitting for me to have a purse covered in flowers. I love the wallet, too. It's beautiful quality. I'm keeping the belt, too. For anyone still considering the belt mine only has flowers - no butterflies - if anyone cares.
The two bras I ordered - Fantasie Fusion Underwire (34 - 5D) and the Wacoal Soft Sense convertible (34 - 4D) and both are great. The pants were really nice, but I haven't needed to work in an office for three years and I just don't think I'd wear them enough so I'm returning them. And the Missoni watch strap never came back into stock (at least during my stalking of the wishlist). This was a great anniversary sale for me - would have been perfect if I got the watch strap too!
