I'm a Picky Shopper, and This Is What I'd Buy From the Sales Right Now
I know what you're thinking: OMG, Nicole. Thank you so much. You've made sale shopping so much easier for us, you selfless angel. What did we do to deserve you? But before you go on (in your head), I'm going to have to stop you because the truth is I did this for myself.
It's true! I'm no angel; I just wanted an excuse to stop procrastinating and finally scan all the sales, and in the process, I found more than fits in my cart, budget, or closet—38 items to be exact—and each and every one of them is seriously wish list–worthy. From jackets and bags to sweaters, jeans, boots, and sneakers, below, you'll find what I consider to be the very best of the many, many marked-down items right now, at every price point. To see and shop all my finds, just keep scrolling.
I actually had this before it was on sale, which is how you know I really like it.
This is one of my favorite denim brands, and it's rarely on sale.
The fashion set is obsessed with these, and it's pretty obvious why.
When people ask me for help finding going-out tops for cold weather, I show them this.
Who can resist this pretty print?
I love how this set looks styled with an oversize blazer.
Everyone needs some version of this Cult Gaia knit dress in their wardrobe.
My mom is obsessed with this sweater, and you can trust her taste.
Add the matching skirt, and you have a full look.
Don't forget the matching pants.
Dress this up with jeans or keep it casual with the matching pants.
Next: My mom said these are the best gifts at Nordstrom—I love them all.
Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
