My Perfectly Curated List of Trendy Finds at Nordstrom, H&M, and J.Crew
I love the holidays. Even in Los Angeles, where we’re currently oscillating between moody gray days and blistering heat, I’m feeling festive! Maybe I’ve been bolstered by a relatively drama-free Thanksgiving, or perhaps it’s the siren song of holiday parties yet to come. Whatever it is, I'm feeling the cheer.
This holiday season, I’m trying to toe the line between treating myself to some frivolity while getting ahead of my style resolutions. For an impulse shopper and self-proclaimed procrastinator (yes, I have been driving around with donation-bound bags of clothes in my trunk since, uh, let me get back to you on that), this is a big deal. It’s a delicate balance to strike, but years of e–window shopping (aka filling up and abandoning carts) have paid off. I’ve scoured three tried-and-true online shopping meccas for the finds that will have you looking fabulous at all your holiday soirées and beyond.
H&M
My first order of business? Spicing things up at all impending parties. H&M has been dazzling recently with saucy minidresses, sizzling sequins, and that Paco Rabanne collab I set several alarms for.
J.CREW
Once January rolls around, it'll be back to basics. For a month that can notoriously stretch on, you'll catch me in classic denim, cozy sweaters, and statement coats to check off those new year errands in.
I live in oversize button-downs and am always on the hunt for more to add to my collection. My tip: Buy one in your true size for work/Zooms and size up for casual weekend wear over leggings.
PS: The white is on sale. You know what they say. If you love something, buy it in every color!
NORDSTROM
If you're looking for something, chances are Nordstrom has it. It's the perfect stop to fill in any wardrobe gaps as well as find special pieces to round out all my wedding guest obligations next year.
