6 Fall Trends From the Nordstrom Sale You'll Be Mad You Passed On
It’s never too early to start investing in key pieces for the season ahead, but right now is probably the best time to add some items to your cart. That’s because it’s the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, which means that some of the best items from the retailer are seriously marked down—including some of the biggest trends for fall.
I did the legwork for you and combed through Nordstrom to bring you my edit of the best fall 2019 trends to order from the sale. There's a sneaker style that’s about the be everywhere, pieces to pull off fall’s all-leather-look, a 2019 version of the classic trench coat, the color that will be in every fashion girl’s closet, and more. These are the fall trends you’ll want in your wardrobe in two months. Go on to shop each of them at a steep discount before the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale ends of August 4.
Retro Sneakers
While "dad" sneakers and chunkier styles have swept the sneaker world recently, next season will be all about the revival of retro styles.
Leather on Leather
For fall 2019, there's a new way to wear leather, which revolves around an all-leather look. Take inspiration from the runways and street style scene by sticking to all-black leather pieces.
Butter-Yellow Hues
One of the biggest colors to watch out for next season? Butter yellow. Think of it as fall's answer to beige.
Reinvented Trench Coats
There is perhaps nothing more classic than a trench coat, but for fall, we'll be seeing new twists on the iconic staple.
Slouchy Boots
If you're looking to invest in boots for fall, slouchy midcalf boots will be the most important style to own. Style them over jeans or underneath a long coat or dress.
Suiting
Suiting for fall will revolve around a neutral palette like gray, with a focus on sharp tailoring and strong shoulders.
Next, eight fall trends that will be huge, according to our editors.
