My mom and I often gravitate toward similar fashion items—elevated basics that fit within our modern-classic wardrobes. Yes, this is despite our 28-year age difference. (She's 63, and I'm 35.) Given that age has nothing to do with what you should or shouldn't wear, this probably doesn't come as much of a surprise. We both also happen to be fans of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (epic deals!) and recently sat down together to scroll through the discounted assortment.
I actually made a list of all of the items that piqued both of our interests. You'll find the edit below, which includes versatile items that have the potential to become new staples for you. Keep scrolling for more on our favorite finds from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.
