29 Things in a 5'4", 30-Something Fashion Editor's Nordstrom Cart Right Now
At the close of each summer (and winter), I always get a very strong urge to shop for fresh pieces for the coming season, and this year is no different. This summer has been exceptionally hot where I live (the southeast), and as someone who doesn't love summer to begin with, I'm over it. Give me changing leaves and anything below 70 degrees. Please.
For context, I'm 5'4" (average height in the U.S., in case you weren't aware) and am in my late 30s. Obviously, one of the best places to shop for new fall wardrobe builders is Nordstrom, with the most well-rounded selection on the internet. So I'm sharing what's currently in my cart in case you're seeking a little fall shopping inspiration during these final dog days of summer.
Scroll to shop my treasure-filled Nordstrom cart along with me before everyone else realizes fall is coming and the best pieces fly out of stock.
This gorgeous satin dress is going to get all the compliments.
I'm already dreaming up cool ways to style this oversize denim jacket.
As someone that's on the shorter side, the 28.5" inseam is perfect.
If you're like me and are always looking for the best light jacket, you're in luck.
My coworker Nicole first spotted this and I always trust her taste.
My obsession with boxy tees is a constant in my life.
Given my height this skirt would hit mid-chin on me, which is my favorite length.
The list of Tory Burch shoes I want just keeps getting longer.
Cute affordable pajamas are so exciting to me.
Additional sizes available here.
Oval sunglasses are the only sunglasses I care about right now.
It's time to start thinking about ankle boots, and this pair is a strong contender.
