10 nsale items worth paying full price for

Then #nsale has officially come & gone…and I’ve noticed that tons of the best-selling items are getting fully restocked, which is exciting! As I’ve been going through the restocks…I’ve compiled a list of the items that are (in my opinion) 100% worth paying full price for. This list was SUPER hard to narrow down because there are probably 20 things I could include. But today I decided to share what i think are the top 10 items worth paying full price for from the nordstrom sale, that are now back in stock!

1. AG Jeans

[IMO, the utility jacket and vince camuto booties are also worth paying full price for!]

These AG jeans were a number 1 seller for me during the NSale, and for good reason. They are the perfect dark wash denim for fall, with a raw hem and the perfect amount of distressing. They’re so comfortable, so flattering, and I know will get SO MUCH USE this fall! They run TTS – I went up one size bc I’m pregnant but typically, I would have gotten a 25. [Wearing a size 26 in the above photo].

2. Good American Black Jeans

These might be my all-time favorite black jeans. They are high-waisted, super flattering and comfortable, and I love the raw hem! They’re easy to dress up or down, look great with flats, or booties! They run slightly big IMO. I’m wearing a 25 in the photo above [and my pregnant self would typically wear a 26]. So, I would suggest sizing down. A good pair of black denim is 100% a fall staple IMO.

3. Vince Flats

[These Madewell jeans are also 100% worth paying full price for as well IMO!]

These Vince flats are a bit of a splurge, if you’re not getting them on sale. The reason why I think they are worth paying full price for though is because of “cost per wear” – meaning, you will GET your money’s worth out of these! These are flats you could actually wear year round, and they look amazing with blue jeans, black denim, skirts, or dresses. They are classic and chic all at the same time, and comfortable too! I found them to run true to size. One of my favorite purchases from the sale.

4. Moonlight Pajamas (Shorts Version Here)

Even not on sale, these amazing pajamas are only $65 for the set. I’ve bought several pair of these full price and have zero regrets about it, because I live in them. First of all – I’ve heard from lots of momma’s that they are great for breastfeeding. So I have a feeling I’ll especially be living in them once baby Sims arrives! But, even if you’re not pregnant or not a mom…they are so insanely soft but not too hot at all. They feel like butter on your skin. i also like that they’re pajamas you could wear if you’re staying at your in-laws house or have guests staying with you. They come in a million colors, and once you have one, you’ll understand why you need multiple pair! [They run TTS, and maybe a TAD big. I’m wearing a size S in the photos above and they are loose on me, which I like].

5. BlankNYC Suede Jacket

If you don’t believe me that this jacket is worth paying full price for, just check out the reviews on the Nordstrom website. These reviews don’t lie haha. A good suede jacket is essential for your fall wardrobe IMO, and this one is under $200 even without the sale. I love this one because it’s not “too moto” if you know what I mean [aka, I don’t feel like a motorcycle chick in this jacket haha. it’s still feminine!]. It has a really flattering fit, it’s not restrictive at all, and feels SO soft. I love this ‘bank roll’ (dark green) color for fall! I’m wearing a size small – the jacket fits TTS.

6. Sam Edelman Booties

I love the color of these SE booties, and think a good caramel colored boot is essential for fall. I also love the gold buckle on them and think that makes them so easy to dress up or down! I wore them one day for lots of errands and shopping and my feet were comfortable the whole time. Even if you pay full price for them, they’re still under $200, and you’ll definitely get your money’s worth out of them! They look great with skinny jeans, boyfriend jeans, or dresses (or, even denim shorts if it’s still warm out!).

7. Steve Madden Perforated Booties

I’ve probably gotten more compliments on these Steve Madden booties than any other purchase from the sale! I love the semi-pointed toe because I think it gives them a feminine look…and the light tan color makes them so versatile for pairing with nearly any color in your fall wardrobe. The heel height is perfect, and even for full price, they’re only $129 which is such a good deal, for a staple fall boot!

PIN IT

8. Halogen Shawl Cashmere Cardigan

I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve worn this cardigan since I bought it. I’ve paired it with distressed denim, workout clothes, or with denim shorts on an airplane. It magically looks cute with EVERYTHING and since it’s cashmere, it feels insanely cozy on your skin. This is another item you will wear and wear again this fall and be SO glad that you bought it – whether on sale or for full price. I love it so much I’m considering paying full price to also get the grey haha.

9. Adidas Flashback Sneakers

You’ve probably already heard me talk about these sneakers A TON, but that’s because they really are the perfect everyday shoe! I personally don’t workout in them, but I wear them for everything else. They of course look cute with workout clothes, but they also look cute with skinny jeans or denim shorts! They’re so comfortable, perfect for traveling, or any day where you’ll be on your feet a lot. Even for full price, they are still under $100 and worth every penny!

PIN IT

10. Nike Sportswear Rally Sweatshirt

This last pick might come as a surprise to y’all because I didn’t talk about it a ton during the sale! (Because it sold out so fast and I couldn’t really post it a ton haha). But I am OBSESSED with this nike sweatshirt! It’s the perfect thing to throw on before or after a workout, or running to the grocery store, hopping on an airplane, picking up kids from school…I love that it looks athletic, chic, and cool…but at the same time, it’s still super cozy and easy to wear! This is another item I’ve worn an embarrassing amount of times since purchasing haha. I highly recommend. It fits TTS – I’m wearing the size S because I didn’t want it to be tight at all.

Like I said, this list was super hard to narrow down because I think there are TONS of items from the #nsale that i would still pay full price for (like this north face jacket omg YES)! But tried to do my best to narrow down the list for y’all! If you missed out on any of the above 10(ish) items during the sale, I highly recommend getting them know while you can. Your fall wardrobe will thank you!

Thanks for reading!
