"Rich-Looking French Vibes" Is the Goal—30 Pieces From the Nordstrom Holiday Sale That Fit the Bill

The 2024 Nordstrom holiday sale is still happening, and I can't tell you how excited I am about the selection. Refreshing my closet was top of mind while recently scouring the sale offerings, which are up to 60% off. My goal was to find pieces that pack two punches in that they are rich-looking and embody French style. I was successful to say the least.
In my pursuit of these criteria, I homed in on all the available elevated basics I came across. Think sophisticated outerwear, expensive-looking sweaters, classic jeans, effortless shoes, and so much more. A major plus is that all these pieces can be easily mixed and matched and worn for years to come. Over half of my top picks are under $100, which is another win. Keep scrolling to shop 30 rich-looking pieces with French vibes from the Nordstrom holiday sale.
Cuffed jeans are personal favorite.
