If you swear by a Nordstrom shopping haul, then it's your lucky day. Nordstrom's Half-Yearly Sale is back again, offering up top-tier, deeply discounted items from across categories. The sale is just getting started and runs through June 1. At WWW, we're simply obsessed with Nordstrom's giant sale events and the Half-Yearly sale is no exception.
Since shopping is my job (I'm a fashion editor), I've decided to take you through some of the best deals I've found from digging through the robust selection of slashed prices. I've zeroed in on some seriously gorgeous elevated basics and sharp-looking wardrobe staples that would make almost any fashion person jealous.
Whether you're looking to build out your foundational wardrobe pieces or for a simple seasonal refresh, you've come to the right place. Included in the mix of items are versatile summer and spring shoe styles, elevated basics tops and bottoms, and simple jewelry that'll go with everything. Keep scrolling to unlock my handpicked selections below.
