Sometimes I consider the idea of exclusively wearing pieces from one retailer to help deal with decision fatigue when shopping for a new season. Nordstrom often comes to mind since it is known for providing a mix of affordable, classic, and of-the-moment pieces with a constant arrival of new finds. With that in mind, I set out to create a roundup of standouts that I would be comfortable with and excited to wear if I had to exclusively wear Nordstrom picks for a month this summer.
My final curated list ended up being filled with chic basics including elevated tops, effortless bottoms like classic jeans and skirts, as well as a variety of pretty dresses. There are a few trendier items mixed in when it comes to the jewelry, butter-yellow pieces, and especially the shoe styles. Keep scrolling to check out 35 editor-approved picks worth shopping this season. Many are discounted thanks to early access to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale that starts on July 12.
