I think every fashion editor on the Who What Wear team would agree that Nordstrom gets an A+ in the basics department. There's consistently a wide variety of these versatile staples at a variety of price points. In other words, if you're looking for a fresh piece to act as a foundational item in your wardrobe, Nordstrom will always have options.
I currently think the assortment of jeans, tops, and dresses is on point. Below, you'll uncover the specific styles that I think are great. You'll notice of-the-moment denim cuts like wide-leg silhouettes, a smattering of tanks and blouses, and dresses that could be worn now and into fall.
