Including some of Katie’s favorite products.
Labor Day sadly marks the unofficial end of summer, but on the flip side, it means we can start taking advantage of the Labor Day sales that are happening before, during, and after the holiday weekend.
If you’re anything like us, you’re already looking forward to cozy recipes, pumpkin everything, and fall-ready style. Speaking of style, now’s prime time to build your fall capsule wardrobe, and you can find nearly anything you’re looking for at our favorite one-stop shop. Whether you’re looking for the latest fall booties or need to replace some worn-out basics, Nordstrom’s sale section will deliver.
We combed the thousands of items available during Nordstrom’s Labor Day sale and selected the best deals you’re unlikely to see for the rest of the year. From Katie’s favorite suitcase to chic handbags to cult-favorite beauty products, here’s what you should be adding to your cart right now.
Best of Nordstrom’s Labor Day Sale 2024
NYDJ Mona Trouser Jeans
Nordstrom
$119 (40% off)
Denim doesn’t always have to come in blue. We’re imagining these wide-leg jeans paired with a breezy linen shirt during the last few weeks of summer and with a snuggly sweater once fall weather sets in. These are made from a stretchy denim that’s comfortable and easy to wash, but Nordstrom does recommend sizing down, as they will stretch with regular wear.
Cole Haan 2.ZeroGrand Derby
Nordstrom
$160 (55% off)
Dress shoes don’t have to be made from stiff, uncomfortable leather. Cole Haan designed a sneaker-dress-shoe hybrid that’s super comfortable and nice enough to wear to the office or to a formal event. More than 2,000 reviewers gave these five-stars, so they clearly have a fan following.
Tumi 22-inch Expandable Spinner
Nordstrom
$750 (30% off)
One thing Katie says is worth the splurge? A high-quality suitcase. She uses this one from Tumi to hold all her travel essentials, and the green color makes it easy to recognize on a luggage carousel full of black and navy bags.
Peter Millar Fields of Carlsbad Golf Polo
Nordstrom
$125 (50% off)
John’s favorite polo brand, Peter Millar, hardly ever goes on sale, which is why we were delighted to see this shirt marked down $50. It’s made from a sweat-wicking material that will keep him cool while on the green or in the office, plus it’s odor-resistant for those extra-sweaty days.
Tory Burch Mini Kira Bag
Nordstrom
$428 (30% off)
When you only need the essentials, a wallet-on-a-chain bag is clutch. We recommend this one from Tory Burch that’s made from soft quilted leather, has a removable crossbody strap, and has multiple interior compartments to keep you organized.
Bobbi Brown Concealer Stick
Nordstrom
$35 (25% off)
When it comes to makeup, we prefer products that require nothing more than a quick swipe and blend. This handy concealer stick can be used to cover up blemishes, brighten dark circles, and camouflage discoloration, even when you’re on the move. Its creamy formula blends like a dream, and currently, all 18 shades are on sale.
Moonlight Eco Knit Pajamas
Nordstrom
$79 (25% off)
Even if you don’t need another pair of pajamas, they always make a great gift. This set is made from super-soft modal fabric that’s breathable and flowy, and the patterns are just plain adorable. (Although it also comes in solids if you prefer your PJs muted.)
Nordstrom CoolMax Chinos
Nordstrom
$80 (50% off)
According to one reviewer, “These are the pants you’ve been looking for your entire life.” We’re not sure you’ll ever find a review more convincing than that. Lightweight, wrinkle-resistant fabric makes these pants easy to wear for just about everything, from travel to work. Keep in mind that the fit is slim, and some reviewers found them too snug, but others appreciated the tapered leg and slightly closer cut.
Tory Burch Ballet Loafer
Nordstrom
$378 (50% off)
If you haven’t noticed yet, we’re in our loafers era. We’d style these ones from Tory Burch with ankle-length pants and a colorful blouse for work, or rock them with chinos and a T-shirt for something more casual. Reviewers say these require no breaking in, and because of the elastic back, they are super easy to get on and off.
Good American Oversize Poplin Button-Up Shirt
Nordstrom
$169 (40% off)
A solid button-up shirt is a wardrobe workhorse. It can be worn to work, left open over a swimsuit or tank top, or layered under a sweater with a preppy collar peeking out. The slim white stripes stand out against the shirt’s putty-colored body, and its modern, oversized fit offers a twist on this classic Oxford shirt.
