Early Black Friday Deals You Can Shop From Nordstrom Rack Now

Now that Halloween has come and gone, the holiday season is officially upon us. It's time to eat, drink, be merry, and get started on all your holiday shopping. If you typically wait for Black Friday sales to kick off your gift shopping, there's no need to wait any longer. Major retailers — including Nordstrom Rack — are already rolling out their best deals of the season. This year, the outlet store, which offers designer items at unbeatable prices, is offering Black Friday savings of up to 70% off on over 900 items.

While 900 may sound like an overwhelming number of potential gifts to sort through, there's no need to panic. We've done the digging for you and curated a list of the best fashion and beauty deals available at this year's Nordstrom Rack Black Friday sale so you can get a head start on your holiday shopping. Just don't forget to grab yourself a little gift while you're at it!

Black Friday shopping has been an integral part of American culture since the 1980s. For many families, it is as tied to Thanksgiving tradition as the turkey itself. While heading out on the most famous shopping day of the year once meant dealing with crowds and even the occasional angry mob, retailers seem to have finally gotten ahead of the potential chaos. It's now common for Black Friday sales to begin early — sometimes lasting for the entire month of November — and to be offered online. If the loved ones on your shopping list are fans of fashion and beauty, Nordstrom Rack is an excellent place to start.

Here at Glam, we take our product recommendations seriously. Each product and category is thoroughly researched before inclusion. We consider everything from product descriptions and customer reviews to ingredients, materials, price points, and even the word on the social media street. The results of that research are then compiled into a handy dandy guide for your convenience.

Geometric sunglasses are in for fall 2023, so they'll also be in for winter 2024. Why would anyone need sunglasses in the winter? According to Woodhams Eye Clinic, the sun sits lower in the sky during cold months, and UV rays are reflected by snow, meaning it's just as important to protect your eyes from sun damage in winter as it is during summer. Show someone you care about their eye health and their fashion sense by gifting them a pair of designer Jimmy Choo 56mm Tesos Square Sunglasses, originally priced at $345.
