Fab Finds at the Nordstrom Rack

I have been working on a detailed post for you on how to shop the Nordstrom Rack. In preparation for that, I did some searching online and was pleasantly surprised at what I found. I shop the store, but rarely go to the website.

I think one frustrating thing about shopping the site is that often your size is sold out. Can anyone relate? I realized when I got on their mailing list that soon I was getting emails about new arrivals, thus my chances of finding the right size increased dramatically.

What You Need to Know:

1. Free shipping ONLY if your order is over $100

2. Returns must be made to a Nordstrom Rack (not full-line store) or you can ship it back for a 5.95 charge.

3. Returns are accepted within 45 days and must not be worn, tags attached etc. You may be able to get an exception, but it would be left up to each store manager’s discretion.

When there are so many items, I can waste way too much time browsing. Stay focused and put your favorite brands into the search box. Since I received an email about J Brand arrivals, I started there.

***one of my readers and customers told me she was shopping for a slip-on sneaker that might be more weather friendly for fall/winter. I agreed that I might need those too!

***I would like some new work out tops. That search was easy as I didn’t see much I liked. I moved on.

***Next I put specific brands in the search box to see if anything looked interesting. This really goes fast and within 30 minutes I had a bunch of choices that inspired this post! You can see how I searched categories or very specifically for brands where I don’t want to pay full price. The Rack is a great place for handbags–there are hundreds of choices. And you don’t have to worry about not finding your size.

Keep a list of specific items and go to The Rack’s website every so often. The emails will help guide you too. (I plan to set mine so I’m not getting them constantly.) I hope this helps and encourages you to try The Rack! Things sell out fast. I checked every item below for availability before I chose it. By the time I finished this post to preview, some denim had sold out! I think people are shopping the Rack!
