99.9% of sales mark down off-season items for obvious reasons. But not the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. The crown jewel of retail event goes one step further: marking down pre-season items. These aren't last season's leftovers; these are the pieces you'll be lusting over in a few months time.

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is your time to get ahead of the curve, and snag a deal while doing it. But as we all know, their selection is massive, and the best pieces are often buried. There are always amazing deals if you look hard enough — and trust me, I have. That's exactly how I found a jaw-dropping deal on my holy-grail item: a Le Creuset Cast Iron Dutch Oven for under $200.

That's nearly 50% off the original price of $350 for this Livingetc-certified favorite. If you're unacquainted, these are arguably the best Dutch ovens on the market, offering superior heat distribution for consistently perfect cooking. Not to mention they're unbelievably durable. My parent received one of these as a wedding gift in the shade 'Flame' (which happens to be on sale right now) and decades later it's still going strong. Plus, it's worth mentioning a Le Creuset Dutch Oven looks fabulous styled on your stove. (Yes, styled.)

Now, I'm quite skilled when it comes to sales, and will gleefully sift through page after page of deals until I reached the very end. As a style editor, I also have quite expensive taste (almost to a fault), but it's days like these that put my eye to good use (speaking for my wallet here). So go on, give my edit below a gander — see what I mean?

Q&A

How often is the Nordstrom anniversary sale?

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale only happens once a year, but don't worry! There are also half-yearly sales: bi-annual events typically held in fall and spring with steep discounts on similarly coveted goods (Nordstrom knows how to throw a good sale). However, for the best deals possible, you'll want to shop now through August 4th.

Can you return Nordstrom Anniversary sale items?

The trouble with sales is that even if you manage to scoop up a great deal, if it falls short of expectations, you’re stuck with it — forever. The frustration is compounded if you dropped a substantial chunk of change. Before you start listing things on eBay to recoup your losses, you’ll be delighted to learn that Nordstrom does, in fact, accept returns on pieces purchased during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. There are a few exceptions, which you can read up on in their return policy, but in general, the retailer’s return policy is pretty generous.

So go ahead and try that unexpected colorway or that brand you’ve never heard of — no harm, no foul.
