Raiding Nordstrom's, Neiman's and Bloomingdale's sale sections for great jewelry finds

Hi, my name is Susie and I'm a jewelry junkie.  And I have no interest in being cured.

Over the years, I have figured out how to shop for beautiful, trendy, pricey designer jewelry for highly discounted prices.  One of my favorite ways of stocking my jewelry box is raiding the higher-end department stores' sale sections.  When it comes to fashion/costume jewelry, it's all about the style and the look, rather than the materials (gold, gems, etc.) and stores like Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, and Bloomingdale's definitely stock the trendiest, most stylish designer jewelry.  And when they need to clear out their stock, they run excellent sales.  And that's when I pounce.

Let's start with Nordstrom. One of Nordstom's best shopping features is their evergreen free shipping and free returns policy.  It makes shopping there almost risk-free, because Nordstrom will always pick up the cost of return shipping.  About once a month or so, I usually hit up Nordstrom's sale section and drill down into the handbags/jewelry/accessories section and then sort from lowest-price-to-highest.  Here's what I found today:

BP Crystal Statement necklace in gold/crystal or hemattite/black diamond for $8.25 with free shipping.

BP bracelet watch in rose gold or silver for $10.98 with free shipping.

Bauble Bar Vine Garland Ring (size 7 or 8) for $16.80 with free shipping. 

Faire Collection 'Ellington' Natural Horn Bangle in coral for $14.40 with free shipping

Onward to Neiman Marcus Last Call, which is the Neiman "markdown" store.  One of the great things about Neiman Marcus Last Call is their free 2-day Shoprunner shipping (Don't have Shoprunner?  Find out how to open a FREE Shoprunner account over here.).  So, when I get my jewelry craving on, rather than head to their clearance section (which doesn't always have the best deals) I'll head over to their jewelry section and sort from low-prices-to-high. Here are some of the lovelies I found today:

Elongated Spiral-Cap Pearly Drop Earrings for $14.00 with free Shoprunner shipping

Lydell NYC Golden Bypass Cuff Bracelet for $14.00 with free Shoprunner shipping

Nakamol Lapis Mix Beaded Drop Earrings for $14.00 with free Shoprunner shipping. These are made with genuine lapis and agate.

And now finally, my beloved Bloomingdale's.  Bloomingdale's, how do I love thee, Bloomingdale's?  Bloomingdale's offers free year-round shipping with no minimum to their Loyalist rewards members and it is is free to join the Loyalist program, so make sure you do.  Once you have that out of the way, let's go to their jewelry section and sort from low-prices-to-high.  Today I saw:

Baublebar Whip Collar Necklace for $22.05 with free Loyalist shipping.

Aqua Shira Ring for $15.00 - 15% sale discount (shows up in your shopping cart) = $12.75 with free Loyalist shipping.

Pandora earrings for $10.00 with free Loyalist shipping.

ABS by Allen Schwartz Ear Jackets for $13.13 with free Loyalist shipping.

The biggest downside to shopping the big stores is that their best jewelry finds sell out very quickly (two Nordstrom items sold out while I was writing this post and I had to replace them with new pieces!), so when you fall in love with a piece, pounce on it.
