Over the weekend, I visited Nordstrom's flagship New York City store, and my entire approach to shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale changed. While I was scouring the site's hundreds of dedicated deal pages for ultra-trendy finds and the best designer brands, I realized I was neglecting one part of my wardrobe—the classic, timeless element.
From simple black pencil skirts to elegant ballet slippers, these 32 Nordstrom Anniversary Sale items are whispering wealth in my ears. If you're on the hunt for a wardrobe that will convince your group chat that you've suddenly and mysteriously stumbled upon a seven-figure trust fund, look no further.
No words, just this top.
So chic.
Even though you'd think wide-leg jeans aren't classy, this sophisticated dark-wash pair seals the deal for me.
Okay, chic!
IYKYK.
I'll never say no to linen pants.
Example B!
Monica Vinader always makes the best jewelry, and now, you can snag this pair for under $150.
Simply stunning.
A perfect basic to layer with.
Okay, Vince, I see you!
This looks rich.
I think I need these.
Ultra cozy and chic. What more could you ask for?
After our associate editor Nikki tried these on IRL, I was been converted.
Add this trucker jacket for a full denim-on-denim look that still manages to feel classy.
At under $100, these are a steal.
Bottega vibes on a sub-$100 budget.
This white skirt is simply divine.
Trust me when I say good denim is a complete wardrobe staple.
Fabulous.
Alert: designer for under $300!
An oversize blazer is always a good idea.
Ballet flats for days.
A good belt never goes out of style.
How about in white?
This silk top would look as good with jeans as it would with a black slip skirt.
Classy!
Cashmere is incredible to have on hand year-round.
A summer essential.
I'll end it off with this sweet little treat.
