I'm an Avid Nordstrom Shopper—Here's What I'm Snapping Up for Summer
Those who know me well know that my weaknesses have always been pastries, shoes, and Nordstrom shopping (in more or less that order). When it comes to the latter, I consider myself a bit of a pro at unearthing the absolute best pieces from the multi-brand retailer before they sell out. I'm an avid Nordstrom shopper, you see. I could tell you practically every brand it carries, I can navigate its website faster than you can say "add to cart," and I write about the retailer so often that I can spot a best seller a mile off.
Below, I'm sharing the must-have Nordstrom pieces I'm snapping up for the summer season ahead. Included in the mix are casual-cool basics, breezy dresses, trending shorts, and sleek sandals. Read on to get your Nordstrom fix for summer.
