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.

Even though you'd think wide-leg jeans aren't classy, this sophisticated dark-wash pair seals the deal for me.
Okay, chic!

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.

I'll end it off with this sweet little treat.
