Nordstrom’s Best End-of-Summer Markdowns Worth Grabbing Before They’re Gone

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is winding down. It wraps on the 9th, and between the last of the anniversary pricing and a fresh round of markdowns, there are still some genuinely great finds hiding in the mix. Sizes are going fast and a lot of styles are already sold out, so if something here catches your eye, don’t wait too long to grab it. We rounded up the pieces still in good stock across sizes, from easy transitional dresses to shoes that will carry you straight into fall.

Dresses Worth Grabbing Before They’re Gone

Caslon Stripe Pleated Dolman Sleeve Midi Shirtdress

A striped midi shirtdress with a relaxed, dolman sleeve is one of those pieces that works for almost any late-summer occasion, brunch, travel, or just an easy day out. The pleating adds movement without feeling fussy. Shop the Caslon Striped Midi Shirtdress.

Spanx AirEssentials Stripe Side Slit Maxi Dress

If you already love Spanx for their shapewear, the AirEssentials line brings that same comfortable, smoothing feel to a maxi dress. The side slit and stripe pattern keep it feeling current rather than basic, and it’s the kind of dress you can dress up with sandals or down with sneakers. Also available in black. Shop the Spanx AirEssentials Maxi Dress.

Donna Karan New York Belted Stretch Cotton Midi Shirtdress

A belted shirtdress in stretch cotton is a wardrobe workhorse, polished enough for the office, comfortable enough for a long day of errands. The defined waist is flattering on nearly every body type. Also available in black cherry. Shop the Donna Karan Belted Midi Shirtdress.

A Skirt and a Jacket for the Transition

Vince Camuto Faux Leather A-Line Skirt

Every wardrobe needs one great, oversized tote, and Madewell’s Shopper Tote fits the bill, roomy enough for a laptop, a day trip, or just everyday overflow, in a shape that looks good with anything. Plus, it’s leather! Shop the Madewell Shopper Tote.

Nordstrom Moonlight Eco Short Pajamas

Nordstrom’s own Moonlight pajama line is a favorite for good reason, soft, breathable, and well-made without a designer price tag. This short set is perfect for warm nights that haven’t quite cooled off yet. Shop the Moonlight Eco Short Pajamas.

Wacoal Visual Effects Underwire Minimizer Bra

A great minimizer bra is worth its weight in gold, and Wacoal’s Visual Effects style is consistently one of the best-reviewed on the market, smoothing, supportive, and comfortable enough for all-day wear. Shop the Wacoal Visual Effects Minimizer Bra.

The Anniversary Sale officially ends on the 9th, and a number of sizes and colors across these picks have already sold ou, so if any of these catch your eye, it’s worth acting sooner rather than later. Hopefully this list makes it a little easier to shop smart before the sale wraps up for good.
