2025 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale – Plus Size Athleisure Outfits 1

Outfit 1 Details

Both of these looks feature burgundy athletic apparel from Zella.

Zella always a winner when it comes to quality!

The burgundy leggings will look great with the coordinating tunic-length pullover.

And in this first look, I added a black puffer jacket. So cute, right?

But, be sure to see the size chart for this jacket as it only goes to size 20.

However, I found some similar jackets at a variety of price points:

Accessories

For the sneakers, I went trendy with the Adidas Gazelle sneakers, which are unisex and should fit wide width feet.

I added some crew socks, which are current and on trend.

Now don’t come at me about the socks. Lol. I know we are no show and ankle socks folks! But, it’s time for a change.

Go here for another inspiring outfit idea with leggings, adidas sneakers, and crew socks.

Keep things sporty by topping the look with a baseball cap.

Sling Bag

For the bag, I went with a sling bag, which are still on-trend and sporty.

The black sling bag is the one I have mentioned many times that Rosey Blair swears is a great choice for plus size gals.

She rocked it and was a size 24.

Make sure you follow her on Instagram and LTK for more incredible fashion.

Or try this more affordable sling bag in black that has an adjustable strap up to 62″.

Jewelry

I added some modern jewelry, some of which is marked down for the NSale.

I love these two-tone hexagon earrings, which look great with this hex link bracelet.

Then I added a gold bracelet and a silver bracelet to keep these metals mixed.

Perfume

As I’ve said, Le Labo’s Santal 33. is one the most-loved fragrances.

Santal 33 is a unisex fragrance described as “captures a defining image of the spirit of the American West.”

Essentially, it smells like you bottled the aura of a hippie’s spirit animal with the collective mood of Burning Man, then added some sandalwood.

And there is a discounted 1 oz. bottle available during the NSale.

If it’s over your budget, I highly recommend you try the Dossier version or the Twist version.

Both brands make fragrances inspired by designer scents.

I tried the brand Dossier. I ordered a bunch of their scents. And so far, I love them!

Outfit 2 Details

Like I said above, this second look also features the same burgundy leggings and tunic-length pullover from Zella.

But, this time I switched up the accessories. I opted for these ultra-comfortable Hoka sneakers and a classic bucket bag.

I topped the look with these gorgeous oversized aviator sunglasses. Gah! I love oversized aviators.

And I kept the jewelry classic, starting with these cubic zirconia stud earrings.

Then I added the most-tempting item (for me) from this year’s NSale, a two-toned Michele Deco watch.

Oh I want!

Yes, it’s super bougie and has diamonds and costs a fortune, but yeah, I want!

Lip Gloss Stick: A New Fave

I recently tried the YSL lippie “Candy Glaze Lip Gloss Stick” in “Showcasing Nude” and must say that I like this formula better than my favorite YSL lippies! Double gasp!

It seems to be as moisturizing as the Loveshine Lip Oil Sticks but with a better glossy finish.

They don’t last very long on the lips, but the moisture does, for sure.

Anyway, I know they are crazy expensive! Like, bonkers. But, they are SO good!

If you’re in the market for a bougie splurge, maybe give them a try?

FYI, there is a set of two of these lip gloss sticks available during the NSale that are a great price.

Perfume

I included Tom Ford’s Café Rose, which I sniffed and liked a lot!

I love any rose fragrance that doesn’t give ‘old lady,’ so this one is a winner!

This warm scent includes Turkish rose and dark coffee with rose Bulgaria and ylang-ylang. Love the juxtaposition. More notes include coriander, patchouli, spicy cardamom, resin and sandalwood.

There is a perfume set available during the NSale that is a great price and includes a full size bottle and travel size bottle.
