I scroll through Nordstrom regularly to source fresh items that I think are particularly noteworthy for my wardrobe and to recommend to others. While the retailer has an epic assortment of contemporary and luxury items, the variety of affordable picks often piques my interest. Every week it seems, Nordstrom stocks a new array of top-notch pieces that ring in under $150 but actually look quite expensive.
Today, I'm here to bring you an edit of under-$150 items that really don't look like it. Meaning: The items in the curation are forward in nature and feel very high-end. There's everything from modern shirting silhouettes to adorable knits to chic dresses. So if you are shopping and want to add something new to your rotation, what's coming your way might be what you're looking for.
