Nordstrom fashion items to shop right now
CNN
—
We’re always excited to see the latest fashion finds at Nordstrom, and we certainly aren’t the only ones. Personal style and fashion blogger Stephanie Arant notes that Nordstrom offers “a lot of different pieces, brands and price points which makes it really easy to find an entire look or just a few things you want to add to your closet.”
But as we transition from summer into fall, it can be daunting to find the right pieces that suit the changing temperatures. The best thing to do is plan your buy. “Take a good look at the items in your closet and figure out what items you want to keep and what items you want to purge. Make a mood board and then a list visualizing items that you want to purchase,” advises celebrity stylist Tara Swennen, who has also partnered with Affirm — a payment platform you can use at Nordstrom, which allows customers to essentially create a personal payment plan at purchase.
So if you’re ready to shop, keep reading to discover what our fashion insiders think are the best Nordstrom fashion finds for men and women to shop right now.
