As someone who foregoes buying wardrobe items I actually need in favor of just buying shoes all the time, I know my way around Nordstrom's online shoe department—and it's wildly impressive right now. No other retailer on the internet has such a wide variety of shoe brands, from budget-friendly options that are less than $50 to cult designer brands such as Prada and Alaïa. And Nordstrom's team of buyers is clearly up on the trends, as every current one is always present and accounted for.
Being the shoe-obsessed fashion editor that I am, I just took a deep dive into Nordstrom's summer shoe selection, and there were too many good options not to share (and help narrow it down). Below, join me in shopping 29 pairs of trendy Nordstrom-found shoes I can't stop thinking about. Oh, and it just happens to be Nordstrom Anniversary Sale time.
Don't sleep on these because they'll be $30 more after the Anniversary Sale.
