<p>Every year, I share some of the things that have caught my eye at Nordstrom&#8217;s Anniversary Sale, both products I&#8217;ve loved and purchased in the past as well as what I&#8217;m considering purchasing this year. There&#8217;s not much I really have an eye on this year, though, so it&#8217;s mostly old favorites/repurchases for me. The sale feels a little underwhelming to me, but I&#8217;d love to hear what&#8217;s caught your eye/exciting you!</p>
<p><strong>Edit</strong>: Now that I&#8217;ve received my orders, I thought I&#8217;d share what I actually purchased in the end and what I&#8217;m loving/returning.</p>

<li><a href="https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=Tv0QdA6A1/4&amp;mid=1237&amp;murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nordstrom.com%2Fs%2F1-state-surplice-sleeveless-top%2F5924416" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" ><strong>1.STATE Surplice Sleeveless Top</strong></a> for $29.90 (regularly $49) &#8212; I bought one in Black and Ruby Plume, but they ran a little short (possibly I got too small, so I ordered a size up and will see).</li>
<li><a href="https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=Tv0QdA6A1/4&amp;mid=1237&amp;murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nordstrom.com%2Fs%2Fcaslon-rounded-v-neck-t-shirt%2F4061980" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" ><strong>Caslon Rounded V-Neck T-Shirt</strong></a> for $12.90 (regularly $19) &#8212; a style I&#8217;ve purchased and repurchased over the years, so I bought two new colors and kept them</li>
<li><a href="https://click.linksynergy.com/deeplink?id=Tv0QdA6A1/4&amp;mid=1237&amp;murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nordstrom.com%2Fs%2Fgibsonlook-v-neck-fleece-top%2F5926563" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" ><strong>GibsonLook V-Neck Fleece Top</strong></a> for $29.90 (regularly $49) &#8212; I bought one in Toasted Almond, and it is a relaxed fit without being super loose, cozy and soft while being thinner. For me, that works because it&#8217;s perfect for wearing around the house and popping outside for a few minutes (to take Winnie out), even though it&#8217;s 100+ degrees outdoors. I liked this one enough that I purchased another in grey.</li>
