Can I just say that I LOVE the fact that Nordstrom is showing us the merchandise for the Anniversary Sale ahead of time this year? In previous years when the flood gates opened I could never decide whether to go straight for the denim or to the shoes. This year we have time to do both. We are able to carefully sift through our top Anniversary Sale shoe picks and add them all to our wish lists. All that’s left to do is a simple “check out” the day the sale goes live. A quick reminder, the sale goes live August 4th for Icon, August 7th for Ambassador, August 10th for Influence, August 13 for Insider, and August 19th is public access!
Below we have curated our favorite anniversary sale shoe picks. From booties to fashion sneakers to wedges to slides and everything in between…we have you covered! Be sure to check out our full preview here and sign up for email to get a first look at our full try on when the sale goes live next week!
** Note: These items are not available for purchase until the sale starts! Make sure to add styles you love to your wish list!

Anniversary Sale Shoe Picks: Top Five Favorite Booties
The Best All Around Bootie
Loving this lower heel bootie with the side cut out. These are perfect for everyday and pair perfect with denim or a dress.

The Best Fashion Bootie
I love a good fashion find that doesn’t break the bank. These higher shaft booties are so cute with all sorts of denim silhouettes. Also that side cut out is definitely trending. These socks will go perfectly with these booties.

The Best Splurge Bootie
I got a very similar pair of Marc Fisher booties last year and wished I had gotten them in more colors. My fashion prayers have been answered with the plethora of colors this year’s version offers.

The Best Comfort Boot
These are 100% necessary for any quarantining we will be doing this winter. Comfy, cute and on sale! These Ugg boots are definitely a hidden gem.

The Unsung Hero Bootie
The lower front of this bootie allows it to be worn with so many different denim hems. I know it sounds silly, but they just go with everything! I also love the chunky block heel which adds to the comfort factor.

Ugg coming in hot with the coolest slides. If you aren’t into the patterned ones above these are definitely the ones to check out.

Do you like the feeling of running on clouds? Me too! Gotta check these out!

The Best Fashion Sneaker
I gotta say even my kids think these kicks are cool. They can easily take a basic t-shirt and jeans up a notch. And trust me you will never get this price again.

The Best Wedge Sneaker
The hidden wedge on these is just perfect. The hardest part will be deciding between camo or leopard?
