ICYMI, Nordstrom Rack Is A Goldmine For Under-$25 Gifting

At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. All product details reflect the price and availability at the time of publication. If you buy or click on something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.

Finding the perfect gift while sticking to a budget is stressful — but it doesn’t have to be. That’s where Nordstrom Rack comes in. The site is already known as a hiding-in-plain-sight treasure trove among savvy shoppers, but if you have never purchased from the site before, consider this kismet — because we have 21 under-$25 gifts to peruse for your shopping enjoyment. 

There are many reasons to love the Rack; not many retailers have as extensive an array of finds spanning designer fashion, beauty, home, and more under one virtual roof — and at scarily great prices, at that. Ahead of the holiday season, our trusty team of elves (aka expert shopping editors) have curated gifts for everyone on your list: The cozy homebody, the aspiring street style star, fitness lover, and more. And did we mention everything on our list is under $25? (Not that anyone except for you would know, TBQH.)

Keep scrolling to shop our favorite affordable gifts from brands like Calvin Klein, AllSaints, Vince Camuto, and more.

Best Nordstrom Rack Men’s Gifts

Don’t forget the guy(s) on your list — dads, dad figures, husbands, boyfriends, brothers we can’t stand but also can’t live without. Sure, you could gift him another dress shirt…or you could opt for an elevated hoodie, new signature cologne, or wear-everyday belt in soft, buttery leather.

This Weekend’s Best Sales, According To R29 Shopping Editors

As professional online shoppers, Refinery29 affiliate writers have a *spidey* sense for the best virtual sale sections and limited-time deals. Whether it's Lululemon's ol' reliable We Made Too Much sale or a flash deal on bestselling skin-care brands — where there's a clearance rack, there's an R29 shopping editor sizing up its price-slashed goods. And today, we present to you the best sales happening this weekend, according to us.

The best sales and/or deals must meet at least one of the following criteria: The discount is applied to a Refinery29 reader-favorite item (according to our anonymous shopping data), and it either takes a minimum of 25% off the full price or it's an item that's rarely discounted, making a slightly smaller price slash still notable. TL;DR: The following sales are ones to watch and worthy of a spot in all budget-friendly carts — we mean, in our opinion.

At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.
