Deal hunters, assemble! The Nordstrom Half-Yearly sale—the retailer’s biannual savings event during which items in every category are up to 60% off—is officially on, and it’s a doozy. While you can find a little of everything, I’ll be honest: I’m most excited about the clothes and accessories. So many current-season pieces are included in the Memorial Day clothing markdowns, meaning plenty of summer’s biggest fashion trends are up for grabs. Barrel jeans? Butter yellow? Colorful sneakers? Check, check, check.
The Nordstrom Half-Yearly sale wraps up on Sunday, June 1, but plenty of the coolest finds (including from designer labels like Tory Burch and Farm Rio) are already starting to disappear. So in the interest of getting your warm-weather wardrobe into shape, I went ahead and curated the absolute trendiest fashion deals below. Get going before the discounts disappear for good.
Glamour’s Nordstrom Half-Yearly sale wish list
1. Colorful sneakers
It’s officially time to give your white sneakers a break, even if it’s just for a season. I’ve been seeing so many candy-colored kicks out in the wild, and everyone from Emily Ratajkowski and Charli XCX is on board with the look. Go low-key in sky-blue court shoes or make your plainer outfits pop with bold red or yellow.
2. Romantic eyelets
Many of summer’s cutest skirts, dresses, and blouses feature delicate eyelets. The detailing is adjacent to 2025’s big boho revival and nods at the sheer look that’s so hot in fashion right now—while keeping things wearable. These dresses are perfect for casual celebrations, while the separates below will pair well with your favorite jeans and T-shirts.
3. T-strap sandals
In the mood for something a little more elevated than flip-flops? These trendy sandals are the answer. I’ve been seeing more and more T-straps on my feed, and all of these picks could almost pass for The Row (especially styled with roomy shorts or relaxed linen pants). Better yet, thanks to its ankle strap, this silhouette is a little more walking-friendly than other options.
4. Butter yellow
Light yellow is the definitive color of early summer, hands down. It’s as easy to wear as white or cream, but it offers more personality and livens up subtler looks. Style it with black, navy, white, denim blue, or chocolate brown—it’s pretty much impossible to get wrong.
5. Barrel jeans
If you haven’t yet hopped on the barrel jeans bandwagon, now’s your chance to do it while the trendy denim is on sale. While Glamour staffers were initially skeptical of the cut, we’ve been proven wrong: It’s universally flattering and lends an editorial edge to your usual denim rotation. One editor recommends the Pistola pair below for petite people, while another loves Madewell’s subtler, easy-to-wear take.
