The volume of new arrivals at Nordstrom is overwhelming at the best of times, let alone at the cusp of a new season. Luckily for you, my editor tasked me with an epic Nordstrom deep dive, saving you hours of endless scrolling. As a fashion editor, I don't want to ever encourage anyone to buy things they don't need or that won't deliver when it comes to quality, so I am always picky when compiling a shopping edit like this one.
I combed through the entire new-in section to bring you a concise edit of the best items to buy for spring, and they're all under $300. They are design-led pieces that all have an elevated aesthetic, but I made sure not to pick anything that would quickly fall victim to the fickle trend cycle or be hard to style. Highlights include a pair of Puma Speedcat sneakers (which I think are 2025's answer to the Samba), a Reformation blazer with a corset-like construction, and oversize aviator sunglasses that are in line with one of the key trends in our spring/summer 2025 accessory trend report. Keep reading for 24 of the best pieces I found at Nordstrom for spring and beyond.
