Few things bring me as much joy as receiving the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale catalogue in the mail. Mainly because the discounts — which are almost always on brands I shop anyway, like the North Face, FP Movement, Vuori, and more — are often quite good. This year, I couldn’t help but notice a considerable amount of excellent deals on activewear. As our resident fitness correspondent and wardrobe-basics expert, I took it upon myself to put together a list of the items that are actually worth it. Below, you’ll find a swingy exercise dress, breathable running shorts, and a few outerwear pieces for wearing to and from the gym or Pilates class. As a reminder: The sale ends on Sunday, August 9, and while that’s still over a week away, I wouldn’t wait too long to shop these deals as many items will likely sell out.
