Nordstrom vs. Amazon Looks for Less

Hi friends! Happy Friday!  I’m so ready for the weekend!  I feel like it’s been such a busy two weeks, but also really fun.  I’ve so enjoyed pouring over all the Nordstrom Sale goodies, getting together with Ali-Shaun and Tarah and then chatting with all of you via comments, email and DMs.  I’m so happy we get to connect here and when you let me know my posts are helpful to you, it really makes my day!

Today’s post was SO FUN for me and I hope you like it too!  It took a really long time, but I think it’s worth it! I compared popular Nordstrom items to those on Amazon and found so many similar things for less!  I could have kept creating these collages all day, so let me know if you want to see more like this!  I don’t like to recommend things to you that I haven’t actually tried, so I made sure to call out the things I have and love below.

I also just placed orders at Abercrombie, Target, and RedDress, so look for those posts soon!

AND, don’t forget the Colleen Rothschild GIVEAWAY!  To enter, just subscribe to my blog & follow Colleen Rothschild on Instagram.  Two winners will get to pick their 3 favorite products!

    Oh my gosh…I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this post!!!! While I do love getting things from Nordstrom, it’s not always in the budget. I know this was a lot of work & very time consuming, but I would love to see more posts like this. Thank you for your time & dedication 🙂

    Thank you so much for this! Nordstrom is across town from me and I don’t always want to take the time to drive there, AND end up spending more than I should. Amazon is so convenient and your input is very much appreciated!!

    I agree… totally love having these comparisons . Certainly a lot of work . Thank you:)

    LOVE this post! Our financial situation just changed drastically and I am having to be really careful about spending, so completely skipped the Nordstrom sale this year… Love seeing these more affordable alternatives!

    Awesome post! I love this kind of look for less. I have a similar Amazon brand quilted vest and love it. I’ve also gifted that Amazon soft throw blanket and my sister loved that. You have great taste 🙂

    I applaud you for this post! I’m usually a huge shopper during the Nordstrom sale spending easily over $1,000, but with pay cuts, due to COVID that’s not feasible this year. Sometimes I want to invest in quality and designer pieces and sometimes you don’t want to invest a lot in something that will be out of style after one season. Please post more posts like these.

    Love this post! Awesome to see very similar looks for less. I don’t generally shop at Nordstrom as the cost is a bit high for my tastes but I still love the style and pieces.

    Thank you for all the hard work on this!

    Yes, I love this post. While I love Nordstrom, I also like to get things there that you can’t find anywhere else. I tend to mix my outfits with 1 expensive piece and the rest more economical. So, I have my wishlist at Nordstrom and if there is a similar piece you have listed here. I took it off my list at Nordstrom. Thank you!!
