Given my role in fashion, I'm typically the one in my friend group who fields all of the style and shopping questions. And yes, I live for it. One of my best friends received a $200 Nordstrom gift certificate as a present and wanted my advice on what she should consider buying. Given that Nordstrom is one of my go-to stores, I couldn't wait to scroll through the new arrivals to send her a list of my favorite items.
Below, you'll uncover a sampling of the pieces I told her to consider. The first five on the list were my front-runners for her. Oh, and fun fact, everything I sent her skewed on the more affordable side with an under-$100 price point.
Keep scrolling to check out expensive-looking finds from Nordstrom that are chic and modern thanks to forward design details.
