Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 2009 picks: Cole Haan, Kate Spade and more 22 July 09
Every year, the US department store Nordstrom holds an Anniversary Sale (July 17 to August 2, 2009). This is the best of all their sales and it has brought hundreds of shoppers to their stores, despite (or maybe because of) the financial crisis.
Unlike their other sales, Nordstrom lowers prices dramatically on upcoming season items. So, although it’s still summer, they’ve marked down the prices on fall boots, shoes, clothes and accessories. After the sale, the prices of those items will go up.
I have made a selection of my favorite items from the Anniversary Sale. In the shoe department, look for boots from Cole Haan and shoes from Kate Spade. I have worn Cole Haan boots over the years and I swear by them. They are made in Italy using good leather and are indeed very stylish. Kate Spade makes cute ballerina flats and sexy high-heeled slingbacks.

In the beauty department, I fell in love with three products:
- Dior Jazz eyeshadow palette, a beautiful collection of six powder shadows, one of which is for the eye brows and another for an intense eyeliner.
- MAC’s Look-in-a-Box, a collection of eye shadows, mascara, powder and lip gloss. My favorite is the Sun Siren look which is perfect for summer.
- MAC’s travel-sized brushes.
Note: a friend warned me after I had already bought the brushes that MAC makes these specially for the Anniversary Sale and that their quality is inferior to that of the regular MAC brushes. I will see if these MAC brushes last and if they don’t, I’ll make sure to write an article about that.
