Are you sitting comfortably? Good. Nordstrom's Half-Yearly Sale is here, and it's time to sit back and indulge in a little guilt-free retail therapy as I guide you in the direction of some seriously cool fashion picks at majorly discounted prices.

As Who What Wear's senior fashion market editor and shopping specialist, I spend an absurd amount of time perusing Nordstom's site daily for the coolest of-the-moment pieces worthy of your wallet. So when the retailer has a sale, I'm always excited to share the fashion-forward pieces I recommend getting your hands on first.

I've waded through hundreds of pages to bring you the most important pieces worth buying from the big sale—from elevated basics to sleek sandals, Nordstrom-made brands to designer labels we love.
