There's nothing like the thrill of putting together a great outfit. Whether it's effortlessly layering the perfect pieces, playing with volume and lengths, or merging two colors in fashion harmony, how we style our staples and statement pieces can make a difference in our ensembles. What's even more thrilling is when the chic pieces that make up said outfits are on sale and won't cost a fortune.
Luckily, Nordstrom's epic Anniversary Sale is taking place through August 4 where you can score major discounts on designer and contemporary brands. I've scoured the sale from top to bottom and created 5 effortlessly cool outfits made up of pieces from the big sale. The best part? All of these ensembles clock in at the $300 mark. Keep scrolling for outfit ideas that won't break the bank.

A chic fit-and-flare midi dress paired with flat Mary Janes is a favorite combo among the fashion set this season. Add some texture with a woven bag and finish the look with bold, gold hoops.
Look 2: $219
For a charming French girl inspired look, pair a pretty floral midi skirt with cute kitten heels and a basic cardigan. An elevated bag will pull the look together.
