While I usually gravitate toward understated, minimal, and fashion-forward pieces, I have a soft spot for pretty finds. There's something so inherently charming about touches of lace, floral prints, pretty pinks, ruffles, and the like. When I find pretty pieces, I love that I can incorporate them into my usual rotation with the help of edgier styling—it helps to ground each item a bit and makes them feel a little more me.
One place that is a guaranteed goldmine of pretty pieces is Nordstrom. Trust me, I regularly pursue the new arrivals section and find everything from romantic floral-print dresses and trendy ballet flats to standout tops and cute skirts. Ahead, check out 30 of the prettiest pieces at Nordstrom that are on my radar right now. Note: smocked and ruched details are having a major moment (something I am certainly not mad about).
