If a Scandi Girl Went to Nordstrom, I Know She'd Clear Out These 32 Finds
Another day, another occasion where I scroll Pinterest looking at Matilda Djerf and her Scandi summer style—a mix of vibrant hues, classic silhouettes, and lightweight fabrics that would make any insider jealous. I'm not the only one who's trying to copy their It factor. Year after year, searches for Scandi summer style soar across the internet ahead of Copenhagen Fashion Week, no doubt a nod to the cool, colorful women who take the internet by storm in August. If you're trying to replicate the cool-girl uniform worn by models off duty who bike around cobblestone streets in Denmark and Sweden, you're just in luck. After scrolling through Nordstrom during a 3 a.m. insomnia session, I found the perfect essentials Scandi women would love.
From colorful woven bags to classic, elevated staples like wide-leg trousers and basic baby tees, shop the 32 affordable and investment-worthy Nordstrom pieces Scandi women are definitely wearing this summer and beyond. Run, don't walk, to the checkout before some of these sell out.
This Paloma Wool cami would look adorable under an open poplin button-down.
If there's one thing to know about Scandi women, it's that they don't shy away from color, especially when it comes to high-end purchases.
These drawstring pajama-style pants have been all the rage across the pond in Copenhagen this summer. Emulate the style with this affordable option.
Wear this slung over your shoulders over a white tee for a fun, creamy pop of color.
I'm shocked this is still in stock given how much of a cult classic this scarf is.
Every Scandi woman definitely has at least four of this type of everyday shirt.
Another pair of Scandi-approved pull-on pants for your troubles.
These army-green cargo pants are in Djerf's summer-to-fall outfit rotation.
If you're looking to make your basic white tee a bit more Scandi approved, opt for this delicate pointelle version to add a romantic flair to your 'fits.
Although the Scandi set prefers sneakers to heels, they still love formal shoes. If you're looking to stay more in line with their flat footwear choices but still want a dressier option, these Ganni satin slides should be high up on your wish list.
These jeans are such a great investment, and they're on sale now.
Corded necklaces are one of my favorite micro-trends of the summer.
Can't you tell I'm a fan of this incredibly on-trend style at the moment?
This is such a deeply discounted gem. Honeslty, I'm grabbing my own ahead of the fall.
This easy, pretty dress would look so good with a chunky knit sweater once temperates start trending down.
I'll leave you with one of my favorite finds of all.
