I've been a fashion editor for a long time, and I'm not one to toot my own horn, but I've gotten pretty good at spotting items that look deceptively expensive. I'm opting for the "looks expensive but isn't" lens. Unsurprisingly, Nordstrom actually has quite a selection of quiet-luxury items that you've got to see.
The items I'm sharing with you have the potential to transform an outfit into something that could pass for designer. Read on to shop my rich-looking picks from Nordstrom, none of which will cost you more than $100.
