Buzz Feed12-07-2025
What's better than a fab new 'fit from Nordstrom? Hmm.. Perhaps one that you got ON SALE?! The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is officially live through August 3, and it's stocked with major markdowns across pretty much every category — think cozy cardigans, fancy skincare, back-to-office shoes, and more.
Let's just say your cart is about to be full... emotionally and literally.
So let's get straight to some of the ~best of the best~ things you can find:
A pair of baggy jeans for 49% off that are actually imaginative without being impractical. Honestly, they might be the most functional pair you own — the front pockets are actually useful (shocking, I know), the cuffs can be worn up or down, and there's adjustable yoking so you can tighten or loosen the waist.
Promising review: "I got three compliments within the first hour of wearing them. So many stylish details. I went with my smaller jean size, and they are nicely relaxed. I wore them cuffed, but they can be let down. They have a wide leg, which I love! They are my go-to jeans for this fall." —SuzevePrice: $64.99 (originally $128; available in sizes 24-32 and two colors)
A high-tech hair dryer for 25% off that'll make you wonder why you ever accepted frizz as your fate. This lightweight dryer uses fancy ion-powered tech to dry hair fast without frying it, and the attachments let you customize your routine whether you're going for sleek and straight or big and bouncy. Basically, it's salon results without the salon small talk.
Price: $299.99 (originally $399.99)
A suede moto jacket for 47% off if you're escaping the heat for cooler temps (or just manifesting fall early). Yes, it's an investment, but a great jacket will keep you warm for years. And unlike a leather coat which can feel restrictive, suede is all kinds of comfortable while still being durable and timeless.
Promising review: "This is an amazing jacket! Soft, supple suede that is both comfortable to wear and flattering. Perfect length!" —LAHippPrice: $299.99 (originally $569; available in sizes 0-10)
An air fryer for 25% off because if you're gonna have to keep an appliance on the counter (which, let's be honest, the modern kitchen basically requires an air fryer), you might as well get one that isn't a complete eye sore. This is as cute as an Easy-Bake Oven while being a whole lot more functional. Big enough to fit a 120-inch pizza and 70% faster at preheating than a traditional oven, it's going to make getting dinner on the table so much easier.
Price: $183.99 (originally $245; available in three colors)
A Flowerbomb perfume gift set for 25% off, because nothing reigns in the compliments as much as smelling like a freakin' English garden. This iconic scent is sweet, warm, and wildly compliment-attracting — plus it lasts. Like, "still catching a whiff after your 4 p.m. coffee" lasts. A no-brainer pick for gifting...or keeping for yourself.
Promising review: "I was searching for the perfect scent for my wedding day, and when I smelled this scent, I knew it was the one. Every time I wear it, I think back to my wedding day. I get so many compliments on how good it smells. Must have!" —Meg1222Price: $142 (originally $190)
A block-heel boot for 31% off, because alllll the girlies are chasing those banana-yellow Frye boots like they're Taylor Swift Eras tickets. Bold, buttery, and begging to be styled with literally everything in your closet — these boots are the moment.
Promising review: "I absolutely love the Frye Kate Pull-On Boot! The craftsmanship is stunning—the detailed stitching adds such a refined, timeless touch. The fit is perfect and feels comfortable right out of the box, with no break-in period needed. These boots have a classic look that pairs beautifully with everything from jeans to dresses. They're definitely a standout piece in my wardrobe and worth every penny!" —Carrie A.Price: $239.99 (originally $348; available in sizes 5.5-11 and four colors)
A three-piece candle set for 50% off, so you can curate the perfect vibe in every room. Bubble Bath smells like the lobby of a bougie hotel where they'd definitely offer you cucumber water. Lazy Sunday Morning masks the "I haven't cleaned in a week" energy with crisp pear and fresh linens. And for steamy romance energy? Jazz Club is warm, smokey, and spicy.
Price: $42.50 (originally $85)
A shoulder bag for 42% off, that looks way more expensive than it is. Coach has mastered the art of luxury without the markup, and this sleek little number is no exception. It comes with multiple straps so you can switch it up — shoulder bag, crossbody, clutch — depending on your outfit and your mood.
Promising review: "Gorgeous bag. It's the perfect size to fit the essentials with a little room to spare. Only thing to note is the 'chalk' color is definitely off-white rather than pure white, like it looks in the photos." —TexasEricaPrice: $229.99 (originally $395; available in four colors)
A pair of cowboy boots for 41% off that you could wear with, idk, everything?!?! The pop of red gives every outfit a little extra yeehaw energy, and the height is chef's kiss — perfect with shorts, long dresses, minis, skirts, you name it. With cushioned footbeds, a modest heel, and roomy leather uppers, your feet will be thriving through every summer concert. O-B-S-E-S-S-E-D.
Price: $109.99 (originally $169.95; available in sizes 6-11 and three colors)
A pair of rain boots for 39% off, because Hunter has been the go-to for gloomy weather for literally over a century — and for good reason. These are easy to pull on, great at keeping water out, and somehow manage to make puddle-jumping feel chic. Your soggy socks will never forgive you if you don't get these.
Promising review: "The boots are fashionable and perfect for yard work, or rainy weather. I was afraid that I may not be able to get my foot in the boot, but they are easy to put on and take off. I will recommend them to close friends and family. If you are considering these, I would say to go for it. They are perfect!" —CurbYourEnthusiasmPrice: $99.99 (originally $145; available in sizes 5-11)
A four-piece laundry box set for 34%, so you can treat your new wardrobe to the luxurious laundering experience it deserves. Scented with notes of ylang-ylang, geranium, and lemon, the gentle yet powerful plant-based detergent will infuse your clothing with a fresh, clean scent that actually lasts. The set also comes with wool dryer balls which, if you haven't used them to replace your dryer sheets, you're missing out. They not only buff the clothing to make it actually soft (rather than just coating it in some weird slime that gives the impression of softness) but also air things out to reduce drying time.
Price: $59.99 (originally $91)
A sampling of Maison Francis Kurkdjian perfumes for 27% off, because Baccarat Rouge 540 has the internet in an absolute chokehold. This sultry wood-and-amber icon is just one of the luxe scents in this set — and if you're gonna dabble in fancy fragrance, why not try the whole lineup? You'll undoubtedly find your new signature scent.
Promising review: "Such a good way to open the door to all of his other fragrances that people are missing out on because they are too hung up on the popular one." —HanuhhPrice: $199 (originally $275)
A set of four colorful wine glasses for 33% off to make your table setting showstopping. I keep mine on display in the kitchen and they genuinely spark joy every time I walk by. Bonus: they make even boxed wine feel fancy.
Price: $53.99 (originally $79.99; available in two colors)
A pair of low-rise jeans for 30% off, because 2025 fashion means mixing it up when it comes to how we wear our denim. These babies highlight your legs, elongate your torso, and basically turn you into a walking Y2K revival. But don't worry — these aren't the restrictive, skinny-jean nightmares of our past. They're baggy and the rise is juuust right, so you don't have to stress about flashing your undies every time you sit. That is, unless you want to...
Price: $48.99 (originally $69.50; available in sizes 24-32)
A three-pack of Apple Watch bands for 35% off, so you can switch up your look on the regular without having to leave your beloved step-counter at home. Whether you're going sporty, sleek, or just matching your outfit, these bands let your wrist serve looks and reminders to stand up every hour.
Price: $64.99 (originally $100)
An off-the-shoulder sweater for 33% off, so you're actually prepared when the cold weather rolls back in. It's cozy but breezy, with a neckline that's cute but in the 'oh, I just threw something on' kind of way that's perfect for a first date. Plus, it's lightweight enough to shed a layer or two when the restaurant hasn't quite figured out how to regulate the heat (looking at you, patio heaters set to lava).
Price: $52.99 (originally $79.50; available in sizes XXL-XL and two colors)
A facial cleansing and firming massage device for 33% off, because once you try it, you won't believe that you've never experienced what clean actually means until using it. After using something similar for about a year, I can't go without it. My skin feels buttery soft and clean as a whistle. Like, how are my fingers supposed to exfoliate like that? They simply can't.
Promising review: "I've never really been one to use a lot of tools in my skincare routine — I always felt like they didn't do much. (Including the Clarisonic I used for years!) But wow, this has completely changed my mind. This cleansing brush is now a must in my routine. My acne and blackheads have decreased immensely, and I've noticed a huge improvement in my skin's overall texture. It feels so soft after cleansing. I use it both morning and night, and it's seriously elevated my skincare game. Highly, HIGHLY recommend for anyone prone to clogged pores — this is truly a game-changer." —Lolacheri24Price: $66.33 (originally $99; available in three colors)
A relaxed blazer for 35% off if your office is still, for some awful reason, clinging to a PRoFeSsIoNaL dress code. This one's structured enough to keep HR off your back, but slouchy and stylish enough to wear straight to happy hour. A true desk-to-drinks MVP.
Promising review: "This blazer seems SO much more expensive than it is! The fabric is such high-quality. Will wear a lot!" —LowerEastsideGurlPrice: $98.99 (originally $149; available in sizes XXS-XXL and three colors)
A carry-on suitcase for 25% off, so you can finally retire the squeaky-wheeled relic you've been dragging through airports since college. This sleek Béis bag has compartments for days, meaning your sweaty post-hike socks don't have to mingle with your clean outfits. Plus, the expandable gusset gives you extra space for all your 'souvenir' shopping — no need to pay those outrageous checked bag fees just because you impulse-bought a throw blanket in Paris.
Price: $199.99 (originally $268)
A pair of faux pearl studs for 33% off that'll add a little elegance whether you're heading to a black tie event or just dressing up a casual brunch look. They're simple, classic, and polished — without feeling too precious or over-the-top.
Promising review: "I love these earrings. The yreally look like authentic pearls. A beautiful sheen to the coloring. The post is long enough, and the metal does not irritate my lobes. They are a medium-sized pearl. Not overbearing. Just classic and elegant. Great price, too!" —AshtonPrice: $25.99 (originally $39)
A pleated miniskirt for 34% off that'll work harder than half your wardrobe. Pair it with a tank and sneakers in the summer, a sweater and boots in the fall, tights and a coat in the winter, and...you get the idea. It's flirty, classic, and season-proof — basically the fashion equivalent of a Swiss Army knife.
Price: $45.99 (originally $69.50; available in sizes XXS-XL)
A Kiehl's face sunscreen for 35% off, if you can't get yourself into the routine of applying that much-needed SPF every day. This offers extra perks like collagen peptides that actually improve your skin now instead of just protecting it for later. And since it's a serum, it glides on way smoother than the greasy goop you've been forcing yourself to use.
Promising review: "Terrific sunscreen. Moisturizing and lightweight." —MBF458Price: $45 (originally $69)
A pair of sneakers for 27% off that are actually cool — like, stop-you-on-the-street cool. How often do you find gym-ready shoes with legit original styling? These look like they walked out of a fashion week and can handle your cardio.
Promising review: "This is my 18th pair of Sorel shoes, and I am never disappointed." —ready for the seasonPrice: $99.99 (originally $135; available in sizes 5-12)
A Free People cardigan for 34% off that's genuinely one of the best things in my winter wardrobe. It's absurdly soft (like, nap-in-it soft), has thoughtful little details, and roomy enough for layers. If you've ever watched a cozy winter Nora Ephron movie and wanted to feel as chic as the main character tucked into a nook with a hot cup of tea — this is that cardigan.
Promising review: "Since I'm still working from home, I like to dress up my everyday tees with a cute cardi that keeps me warm and looks nice for virtual meetings. This cardigan is roomy and cozy. Nice and thick. It's very well made with nice button details, so it felt worth the splurge." —angrytrufflePrice: $105.99 (originally $158; available in sizes XS-XL and five colors)

As a 5-foot Fashion Writer, These Are the 12 Wedding Guest Dresses That Don't Require a Trip to the Tailor

Wedding season is about to be in full swing, and my calendar is packed with summer and fall outdoor soirees, some close to home and of which require traveling. After taking a peek into my closet, I've concluded that I need to add a few new options to my wedding guest dress collection—ideally without breaking the bank. Since I'm 5 feet tall (and on a time crunch), my search is narrowed down to petite-friendly dresses that won't require a trip to the tailor. Luckily, I have a list of reliable spots, such as Amazon, Nordstrom, Anthropologie, and Banana Republic, that never fail to have stylish petite options. I found wrinkle-resistant midi dresses that won't take up much space in my luggage, along with elegant, cocktail attire maxi dresses. Keep reading for 12 petite-friendly wedding guest dresses I'm eyeing right now, starting at $46. $350 $150 at Banana Republic Banana Republic is one of my go-to spots for petite wedding guest dresses, and this willow green halter neck dress immediately caught my eye. It features flattering corset-style pleats that create a drop waist design to help extend the torso area—AKA the perfect design for petites. One reviewer confirmed this, writing, 'Being a petite woman, it's difficult to find beautiful, long dresses that accentuate and don't swallow my frame,' adding, 'This one does just that and does so effortlessly!" Oh, and it's machine washable! What more could you ask for? Well, maybe the fact that right now it's $200 off, bringing the price tag to $150. In addition to shopping for dresses to attend the actual wedding, I'm also searching for flirty yet modest options to wear to the welcome party. This dress won't take up much room in my luggage, and its light and airy material won't feel overly hot during outdoor festivities. It comes in eight color options, from a little black dress to a pink shade that's ideal for the daytime. One 5-foot-1 Amazon shopper highlighted the dress's 'high-end vibe,' thanks to its 'luxurious' material, and shared that it's fit for petites, writing that the length 'just hit' their knee, which they 'love.' $120 $95 at It wasn't until recently that I discovered the extensive wedding guest dress selection at Abercrombie & Fitch, with almost every style available in petite sizing. This summer wedding-ready midi dress is made from a sheer crepe fabric with a flattering sweetheart neckline and flowy skirt. The dress also comes with removable spaghetti straps for added support, and the hemline grazes right above the ankles—truly the perfect length, just as the reviewer said. One 5-foot-3 reviewer shared that it's 'the perfect fit and length' for them and said, 'I can't wait to wear this for an upcoming beach wedding.' This stylish satin floral dress would fit right in at a summer outdoor wedding or even a fall function, thanks to the 16 prints that include some darker colorways like maroon and navy. The midi-style dress has a peek-a-boo front tie design and a subtle side slit. One 5-foot-2 shopper shared that it's 'petite-friendly' and raved that it's the 'perfect wedding guest dress.' This elevated A-line dress from Petal & Pup is a simple yet elegant choice for summer weddings—and gives Reformation vibes (some calling it a dupe!) with a much friendlier price tag. While it isn't available in petite sizing, the adjustable tie straps help create a customizable fit and the length at most might appear more like a midi dress (which I love). One 5-foot-2 shopper dubbed it the 'perfect wedding guest dress,' while a different petite reviewer wrote, 'I look forward to wearing this piece for years to come!' This simple cotton midi dress from Steve Madden is an option I can picture myself reaching for again and again, even after wearing it to a wedding. The dress is designed with convenient details like two functional pockets and adjustable straps, and its flowy skirt will have me twirling the night away on the dance floor. The muted mossy green hue is fitting for summer and fall—just wrap yourself in a pashmina once the weather cools down. Polka dots have been popping up everywhere this summer, and this midi sundress puts a wedding guest-approved touch on the trend. The flowy pleated dress has a structured ruched bodice and a V-neckline, and the spaghetti straps are adjustable. If polka dots aren't for you, the dress is also available in four eye-catching floral patterns. Romantic is the best way to describe this ruffle-trimmed maxi dress from London Times. The flowy chiffon dress, available in petite sizing, has an empire waistline and flattering capped sleeves. The high-low design allows you to show off your footwear, while ensuring you won't trip on the ankle-grazing hemline. The petite sizing sealed the deal for one Amazon shopper, who wrote that they 'received many compliments on the colors and style,' while at their daughter's college graduation. This top-rated midi slip dress from Anthropologie is perfect for a summer garden-themed wedding. The pullover style midi slip dress features a mock neckline and a sophisticated keyhole back closure. While it caught my eye as a wedding guest dress, one reviewer wrote that they are taking it on their 'European trip,' adding that it 'will fold to nearly nothing and barely wrinkles.' $130 $104 at The subtle gold hardware detailing on this timeless black maxi dress made me fall in love with it for one of my upcoming weddings. The petite dress features a dipped-waist design with tie-back detailing in georgette fabric that folds down small and won't take up much luggage space. In addition to black, it comes in three other summery colors, including an orange floral and a bright magenta. A 5-foot-2 shopper who ordered a petite size wrote that it was 'a perfect fit,' while a different reviewer wrote, 'getting this in petite made the length perfect.' Reformation's wedding guest dresses are undoubtedly a splurge, but considering I own a few of them, I can confidently say that it's money well spent. I've had my Reformation dresses for years, and they truly stand the test of time. Plus, the simple, yet elegant silhouettes are versatile enough to wear for numerous occasions, not just to a wedding. This A-line dress has a fitted bodice and an elegant sweetheart neckline. According to the brand's product description, this style runs on the larger side—something to consider when selecting your sizing. I'm never opposed to opting for a mini dress if it fits the wedding dress code, and this effortlessly chic option is easy to dress up or down. It has playful puffed sleeves and an off-the-shoulder neckline, but the metallic mocha shade adds an elevated, dressy touch to the mini. Love a great deal?

What's not to love about a multi-hyphenate—both tinted lip balm and blush fused into one product.

Vogue's Favorite Lip and Cheek Tints The best versions blend seamlessly into skin, and stay put through sweltering commutes, rooftop drinks, and everything in between. Whether dabbed on with fingers in the back of a cab or built up with a brush for an statement-making flush, these hybrid staples are effortless as can be. What sets today's dual-action tints apart is their thoughtful formulation. Infused with potent ingredients—think soothing aloe, antioxidant-rich botanicals, and hydrating hyaluronic acid—many of these modern skincare-makeup hybrids do more than deliver color, actively nourishing skin wherever they're placed. From sheer balmy textures to buildable stains with surprising staying power, the latest crop of lip-and-cheek tints are proof that streamlined doesn't have to mean sacrificing sophistication. Scroll to discover Vogue's most-loved favorite formulas.
