I Used to Work at Nordstrom, and Now I'm an Editor—These 32 Picks Stand Out

As someone who worked as an associate at Nordstrom throughout college, I consider myself somewhat of an expert at browsing the retailer's product offering and figuring out what's a worthy purchase. I was consistently working with customers and testing out the quality of high-demand items, and my time handling product returns also taught me which brands provided comfort and which lacked. It makes sense that, a few years later, I'm now a market editor and still spend an absurd amount of time perusing Nordstrom's site daily for the best of-the-moment finds.

Navigating through Nordstrom's site can take hours, and I'm here to find the best options so you don't have to. I've waded through hundreds of pages to bring you the most important pieces worth buying—from elevated basics to the trendy items you'll actually get wear out of. Even as a shopping specialist who overthinks every purchase, I've already added quite a few pieces to my cart. Keep on scrolling for some shopping fun.

Associate Fashion Editor
Yusra Siddiqui is an editor who resides in New Jersey but bounces between the suburbs and NYC. (She's a Jersey girl at heart.) After interning at Who What Wear in 2019, she found her way to the team after graduating from LIM College in 2022 with a fashion media degree. She's also spent time writing and working for publications such as Fashionista, Coveteur, and Nylon, but she always knew that Who What Wear was where she was meant to be. When she's on the job, she's perusing runway shows, analyzing the latest thing fellow Gen Zers are up to on the internet, and sharing what she can about the modest-fashion market. You can also catch her dabbling in entertainment, talking about the costume choices of the latest Netflix series or diving deeper into how the plotline affects the viewers in a myriad of ways. Lastly, she likes to create content for Who What Wear's TikTok. Her personal time is spent doing similar but also different things—deep diving into almost every new TV show (Bridgerton, Gilmore Girls, and Stranger Things are favorites), planning her next local getaway (whenever that may be), and reading the latest Emily Henry or Sally Rooney novel in one sitting.
