When it comes to luxe-looking basics, Nordstrom is the first retailer the majority of our editors turn to, especially when we're overhauling our closets as the seasons change. After spending three hours digging through old sweaters, knits, and jackets last weekend, I've narrowed down my list of things I need to buy in order to look and feel good as soon as the temperatures hit the 40s. What's on that list, you may ask? Sherpa fleeces, expensive-looking sweaters, and timeless jeans that look way more expensive than they actually are. Plus, there's no catch—everything is under $200. Score.
Below, browse some of the best expensive-looking Nordstrom finds of the season. Some are so good they'll have your friends thinking you jumped tax brackets. Happy shopping!
