For the first time in my entire life, I’ve finally found a semi-consistent workout routine that works for me. While it feels good to get moving and grooving, I’m constantly reminded that I don’t have enough activewear to keep up with what feels like incessant sweating and trip after trip to the gym. Before my consistent workout routine, I preferred to spend my money on $7 iced lattes and the latest accessory TikTok told me I needed.
But once I decided I needed new workout clothes to keep up with my more regular workout routine, I knew I had to wait to take advantage of all of the savings that the annual Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has to offer.
Now that the Nordstrom sale is finally on, I’m pulling out my credit card, saving my favorites, and getting ready to hit “add to cart” as soon as the Nordstrom gods allow me to. After a few months of patience, I can save big on some of my favorite activewear brands like Zella, Spanx, Alo, Beyond Yoga, and Nike, which means that I can buy more and still stay within my budget (AKA still have money leftover for those iced lattes!). Investing in pieces that’ll make my heart and wallet happy? Sounds like my idea of a good time. If you’re looking to stock up on activewear and save some $$$, look no further. Here are the best activewear items from the Nordstrom sale:
