I am all too familiar with Nordstrom's new-arrivals section. It's a place of refuge that I often turn to when I'm in need of some fashion inspiration to liven up my closet situation. You can spend hours scrolling through the seemingly endless pages of all things new. The most impressive thing, though, is how many brand-new items have already achieved a coveted five-star rating. Usually, that caliber of success takes time to build, but not for these items.
I've never been one to leave reviews, so the fact that people take time out of their days to rave about these finds gives them a lot of merit in my eyes. There's a ton of range in the styles that just hit the site, like top-rated summer wedding-guest dresses and designer heels to Bermuda shorts and casual denim. Below, shop 32 Nordstrom items with a 5-star rating. Perhaps you'll feel inclined to leave a review of your own when you find one that's worth the hype.
