The Key 2026 Trends to Shop During the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
High-Neck Jackets
Style-setters have been embracing high-neck and funnel-neck jackets for a few seasons now as an easy way to add visual interest to a look. You can toss one over any ensemble, and your outfit is going to feel much more forward.
Lace-Trim Pieces
Lace-trim pieces are everywhere, whether that detail is on a tank, a skirt, shorts, or pants. If you want a relevant and pretty look, add one of these standouts to your wardrobe!
Cool, Relaxed Pants
I've recently started wearing trousers and cool pants in poplin and silk as an alternative to jeans from time to time. Even when styled with just a simple tee and flip-flops, the trousers add a touch of polish that makes me feel even more confident.
Colorful Knits for Layering
You just can't go wrong with a colorful knit to either wear as is or layer over your shoulders or around your waist to bring an extra level of style to an outfit.
