As a shopping editor, I've developed a bit of a shopping habit. While my hobby requires little sleep (and a lot of screen time), I'm always the first to know about great sales, which is a big plus. This week, I found many summer staples hidden away in the late-night sale section at Nordstrom.

The retailer's semi-annual sale just wrapped up, so imagine my surprise when I came across thousands of affordable Nordstrom summer finds on sale. These are not your average out-of-season deals, either. Team Marie Claire's favorite brands (Tory Burch! Mansur Gabriel!) are at huge discounts.

I found everything from summer basics and maxi dresses to cute ballet flats and summery workwear staples, all at prices that fit my budget. When I spotted the Lily James-approved Mansur Gavriel bag on sale for 40% off, I knew I had to share the news. Don't miss out. Before you add them to your cart, be sure to do so as soon as possible. There is no telling when these items will return to full price.
