20 Chic Items at Nordstrom That Look Put in Sale by Mistake

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is in full swing and let me tell you, I had to do a double take when I saw this year’s sales in fashion and clothing. Not only are all of the fashion deals from the sale good, when I took a look at the pieces under $50, I was in shock. These 20 under-$50 pieces are so chic that I truly thought they were put on sale by mistake.

There’s so many chic under-$50 pieces on sale, but below we rounded up our top favorites categorized by dresses, tops, pants and shoes. A few things we couldn’t believe are still on sale (and in stock) are this pretty polka dot slip dress, now 38% off, and this off-the-shoulder top, which is now 28% off. And if you end up loving them, you better scoop it up quickly, since the sale only lasts through August 4, 2024. Happy Shopping!
