It's no secret that I love dresses. Short, long, silk, linen, cashmere—I have an affinity for them all. You can catch me in a linen midi style at work, a cute mini for date night, or a satin gown at a party. In my opinion, a dress can never do you wrong—you just have to find the right one. I always turn to Nordstrom's dress section because it has a breadth of options to choose from. Whether I'm looking for a specific color, fabric, or silhouette, I always manage to find exactly what I need. After browsing the retailer's new-arrivals section, I narrowed down my search to include the perfect little black dress, a trendy red dress, and sweaterdresses for chilly weather. I was also impressed by the party and cocktail dresses because, you know, it's never too early to start planning my outfits for those holiday events. Keep scrolling for all the dress inspiration you need, starting at just $40.
