With the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale wrapping up this weekend, I have one more sale related post for you! Mainly because these were the last few things that I had ordered during Early Access that hadn’t arrived prior to the photographing of my good, bad and ugly post (see it here). After pulling all the images, I noticed a common theme: all the pieces were cozy and comfortable sale finds! From dressed up to casual and even some activewear, here is a final sale round-up of cozy and comfortable finds.
Ruffle Hem Sweatshirt Dress
Cozy dresses are one of my favorite fall items. Needless to say when I spotted this one during Early Access, I ordered it immediately! I have a similar sweatshirt dress in grey and while I like the navy, the green was calling my name! I was anxiously awaiting the arrival of this dress. It took forever to be delivered! The only hesitation I had was the length. I went with my usual size, the medium, mainly because of my length concern.
Truthfully, I was back and forth on whether I was going to keep the dress. I love the oversized fit and cozy fabric. As for the fit, the medium was tighter in my shoulders and pretty large in the body. As for length, the dress hit right above my knees. I’m 5’8 for reference. The dress is also available in petite sizing. My mom ordered the petite version and it looks darling on her!
Overall verdict: I’m going to keep it. It’s not something I will wear to look skinny (haha!) but it is comfortable dress that will be perfect with riding boots, blanket scarves and fall vests. I saw the dress styled with a belt and wasn’t crazy about it, but I might see how it looks and feels on me. I’ll keep you posted!
Cashmere Wrap, sold out (similar here, here & here)
This was the first item I ordered on the first day of Early Access at 3am! I missed out on a similar cashmere style last year during the sale and was determined to pick up this one. Overall, I’m really happy with it! I love the two-tone color and it’s long length. I am wearing it as a wrap here, but you could easily wear it as a large scarf, too. After being so disappointed by the camel jacket I mentioned in this post, I was happy to have one camel fall item that worked.
It appears this was a hot item from the sale since it’s sold out. I did link a few similar styles above. Some are similar to the wrap style, while others are more cardigan-like.
CozyChic Cardigan
I have raved about Barefoot Dreams so many times on ABM, you are probably sick of me talking about it! I have quite a few Barefoot Dreams pieces in my closet and each fall/winter season, I always seem to pick up (at least) one more. I wasn’t going to order this circle cardigan when I first saw it. I have two Barefoot Dreams cardigans in my closet already. But, I liked this color and the circle cardigan style. I have to say, I think this might be my softest Barefoot Dreams piece yet. Are they making it with softer fabric, or is it just my imagination?! Most of the pieces in my Barefoot Dreams collection are strictly “wear at home.” However, this circle cardigan is definitely acceptable for outside your home. I bought the medium and it runs true to size.
Tank, Floral Cropped Leggings (sold out) & Floral Sports Bra
There is always something to find in the activewear section of the Anniversary Sale. And while these Zella items are not necessarily cozy, they are definitely comfortable! I have shared my love for the black Zella leggings countless times here on ABM. I always stock up on them during the Anniversary Sale because it’s such a great deal.
As for this set, I love the pretty floral pattern. The mix of the dark background with the lighter floral print make it easy to wear now and into fall. The matching sports bra, cropped leggings and tank make for a cute yoga or pilates outfit. I have so many workout separates that do not necessarily “go” together. Anyone else? I always love when I have a matching set!
CozyChic Socks, sold out
Ok, last Barefoot Dreams item. I promise! At this point, I feel like I should be the official spokeswoman for Barefoot Dreams haha! But in all seriousness, until this Anniversary Sale, I had no idea Barefoot Dreams made socks. I am notorious for cozy socks in the winter. I always have them on around the house! So when I discovered that the soft and cozy fabric I love was available in sock form, you know I didn’t hesitate! Unfortunately, the socks are sold out for now. Keep checking back on these, I have seen the stock fluctuating. If you are interested in seeing more of the Barefoot Dreams collection, you can view that here.

That sweatshirt dress looks so cute and comfy, and perfect for fall! I swear I lived in big comfy socks like that during the winter last year because it was so cold! I definitely think that everybody needs a pair (or two or three!).
