Here's What I'm Buying From Nordstrom's Half-Yearly Sale

Honestly, who among us doesn't love a good Nordstrom sale? Twice a year, the mega-retailer marks a plethora of pieces down by up to 40% and, basically, a frenzy ensues across the land. From today through June 3, some of spring's and summer's best buys are included in the vast mix (yes, long before summer has even officially begun). For me, this means stocking up on dresses, sandals, and denim pieces that I'll wear on repeat during the coming months. But as always with Nordstrom sales, the inventory can be overwhelming, so I'm sharing with you my Nordstrom shopping list (because if I do say so myself, I'm kind of a pro shopper).
Keep scrolling to shop 21 sale gems that are currently in my Nordstrom shopping cart. And as always with a sale this good, remember to take deep breaths.
