Spring has sprung, and if the runways are any indication, the upcoming warmer weather will bring out the best in us. Shopping for spring, although fun, can leave me uninspired. Frankly, how many floral-printed dresses and raffia mules can I personally own before I get tired of them? That's why I've decided to look at runways from all of my favorite cities to figure out what sparks joy in me this spring.

Although I'm no stranger to affordable trends, Nordstrom's selection of high-end designer goods and top-notch contemporary labels means it's not always the first place I look when trying out new, cost-effective styles. Truth be told, though, I was pleasantly surprised by all of the sub-$100 gems I found while scrolling for hours on end. Not only does Nordstrom's spring offering satisfy all of my runway-inspired fashion cravings, but it also won't cost four figures to revamp my look ahead of spring. And that's something I can get behind, without a doubt. 

Below are all of the runway-approved spring trends I found at Nordstrom for $100 or less. I wouldn't be shocked if these sold out in the next few weeks, so act fast. Happy shopping!
