I'm not going to sugarcoat it — the weather is miserable. And with Punxsutawney Phil and Staten Island Chuck giving us mixed signals, no one knows when spring weather is coming. So, what's a gal to do when going outside is simply not an option? As someone who shops by trade (and hobby), I'm digging through deals — specifically the deals at the Nordstrom winter sale. Ah, I love a Nordstrom deal.
The retailer's annual winter sale is stocked with unreal discounts on top-selling goodies — all up to 60% off. Whether you're looking for markdowns on cozy socks, blankets, sweaters and coats to get you through the rest of winter or want to get a head start on spring fashion shopping, the sale picks are endless. Take, for example, this perfect-for-spring Tory Burch tote for nearly $100 off. Or what about this Le Creuset sauteuse oven for over 40% off (down to $200 from $350)? There are even A+ discounts on Valentine's Day gifts (just make sure you order by noon ET on February 12 and select expedited shipping).
I know that this many deals (55,216 to be exact) can be, well, overwhelming. So, I used my shopping editor expertise and gathered the best Nordstrom Winter Sale deals to shop. Plus, if you're a Nordy Club member, you can score 5-10x loyalty points. Not a member? It's free to sign up! Okay, now that that's settled — it's time to shop.

No matter the season, a matching pajama set is such an easy way to feel put-together, even on those days when you're very much not. You can score this expensive-feeling pair for as little as $50 (depending on the color). It's great for that end-of-winter weather thanks to the long pants and long-sleeved top.
The set is also super versatile: “I like it so much that I would consider wearing the shirt as a top out and about. It’s very retro,” wrote a five-star reviewer. “The material is so soft and comfortable. I wear a coordinating-colored tank to sleep in and then wear the top for morning coffee. I would feel completely comfortable if someone came over unexpectedly.”
As a sweater enthusiast, I can confidently say that Free People makes some of the best cozy sweaters out there — especially when it comes to oversized styles. They're also normally pretty pricey. Take, for example, this wool-blend pullover that normally retails for $168 (and now it's down to $76). It's slouchy, soft and features a flattering high-low hem that hits right at the hips while covering the bum.
I'm obsessed with this cheery blue, but it also comes in gray, white and olive green. Loose, casual, comfy...what's not to love? Pair it with casual jeans or dress it up with a skirt.
Zella is one of Nordstrom's bestselling brands for a good reason. Shoppers are obsessed with the athletic brand's buttery-soft fabric, flattering silhouettes and versatile pieces — like these athleisure pants that are basically flowy leggings. The pull-on style features a moisture-wicking fabric and has pockets (the best).
"These pants fit true to size," shared one shopper. "I wanted something that looked a little bit more elevated than regular joggers. They hold my stomach in and give me a nice figure. These will also be a great travel pant."

Don't let the small size and stylish color fool you — this trendy tote can fit your laptop and all of your other essentials. It's made with plant-based leather and features interior and exterior pockets. Not feeling the top handles? Use the adjustable crossbody strap!
"I have been eyeing this bag for months," said a Tory Burch fan. "I have many bags in many colors, but I wanted something easy to carry and had plenty of room. This bag is great, as I am always carrying things for my family. The material is so nice and wipes up easily. Would love to purchase another!"
Ugg slippers are a winter staple so when a pair is marked down by 25%, we take notice. Slip your tootsies into these ultra-plush foot warmers and be cozy forever. Lined with the brand's signature wool blend shearling, these slippers are great for wearing around the house. But they also have a decent bottom so you can wear them out to the mailbox, no problem. Plus, the EVA sole will keep your foot supported throughout the day. (Because why would you ever take them off?)
"I’ve gotten lots of comments on them already and I’ve had them for two weeks," shared one five-star reviewer who called them her "favorite" shoes. "They mold right to your feet after being a little tight at first — with a little breaking in they become perfect. The fur looks brand new and I’ve worn them every day so far, including in the snow!"
Question: How often do you see high-quality cashmere (of any kind) for under $50? I sure don't — and my nine-to-five is literally just online shopping. These über-warm cashmere gloves will work with any touchscreen. This way, you don't have to expose your fingers to the not-so-warm elements. And they're classic enough to wear year after year without going out of style.
"These cashmere gloves are perfect for every day," wrote a happy Nordstrom shopper. "Soft and pretty. Great for work. Warm and stylish. I love the neutral color as it goes well with all the black I wear."

Yes, the eyes are the windows to the soul — but the brows are the frame and what's a window without a frame? This three-piece set comes with a slim pencil, angled definer and clear gel to create the ideal brow look.
"My brows have thinned with age so I decided to try filling them in with this pencil in the charcoal color," explained one five-star reviewer. "This pencil is fantastic! The colored tip is easy to use and it looks very natural."
This skincare set of two absurdly popular Peter Thomas Roth products is already valued at nearly $100 — meaning it's actually 60% off if you do the math. The cult-favorite 24K Gold Mask is designed to help firm and brighten the look of the skin with (you guessed it) 24K gold and peridot. Meanwhile, the Cucumber Detox Hydra-Gel eye patches are made to soothe, hydrate and de-puff the eye area with skin-loving ingredients like hyaluronic acid, caffeine and cucumber extract.
Together, the duo is a refreshing, anti-aging powerhouse that lookss and feels great. I've been a loyal fan of the cucumber eye patches for years and can confirm that they do work. I also pretend I'm at a spa every morning when I plop them on, but that's neither here nor there.
Another brand that's rarely on sale? Beautyblender. If you don't know, beauty blenders are the makeup sponges to end all makeup sponges (I've tried other brands and they just don't compare). Yes, each signature pink egg-shaped puff is pricey, which is why nabbing one on sale is a must. This set (valued at $38) features both the iconic sponge and a dual-sided puff to finish off your look with a dash of powder.
"I love all things makeup," stared a beauty guru. "I figured this sponge would be no better than any other sponge but I was pleasantly surprised. After applying my foundation I quickly use the moistened sponge to even things out and make the whole application look flawless. The sponge is finer and more flexible than other sponges I've used."

What's a sauteuse? So glad you asked. It's a cross between a Dutch oven and a sauté pan, the sauteuse is great for sauteing, searing, braising, frying and baking everything from pasta to brownies. The enameled cast iron pot from Le Creuset is oven- and dishwasher-safe and suitable for all cooktops, even induction.
My future in-laws just gifted me one of these babies for my bridal shower a few weeks ago and I've pretty much used it every day since (sorry to my Dutch oven) — even for the simple things. Like, the other day I made scrambled eggs and they tasted like I imagined Ina Garten's to taste like.
Apotheke is one of the luxury home fragrances that can turn any home into a five-star resort — especially in reed diffuser form, like this Pumpkin and Ginger one. Even though pumpkin spice season is technically over, that doesn't mean you have to give up the best and coziest smell ever. And we all know that autumnal vibes mean that life is generally better. It's also so chic!
"This candle is scrumptious without being in your face annoying," described a five-star reviewer. "I hate overpowering fake-smelling fall scents. This one is a treat. I'm definitely buying this one again"
Fun fact: celebrities love to snuggle in the winter just like us. Their preferred blanket of choice? Any Barefoot Dreams number. The brand’s signature blanket — now 40% off — is made of wildly soft microfiber that stays impossibly soft wash after wash. Unlike other microfiber blankets, it doesn't pill, snag or shed. Throw it on your bed, couch, or lounge chair or just wrap yourself up in it and take it from room to room.
"I am so very pleased with the quality and the softness," wrote a warm and cozy shopper. "It is the perfect Goldilocks size, exactly the measurements in the description."
