Do you ever feel like, no matter what you do, your clothes and accessories just aren't working for you? It could be that you weren't prepared for the new season or your style changed or the trends changed or all of the above or none of the above! Regardless of the reason, I think we can all agree that it's a feeling that makes one dread getting dressed in the morning. With as much as we have going on in our days, nobody has time for that.
On that note, with the new season on the horizon, I recently did a closet cleanse and now feel like I have space in my wardrobe for new pieces that will make my everyday outfits feel upgraded and a lot more current. I turned to our beloved Nordstrom to find 29 affordable items that fit the bill, from basics to trendy pieces. In other words, wardrobe rut begone! If you're ready to shop my edit of cheap-but-chic buys that will upgrade your wardrobe on a budget, just keep scrolling.
All business.
I've officially come around to the micro-shorts trend.
We all need a pair.
I don't use this word often, but these are so elegant.
White trousers are going to have a big moment this year.
Just add trousers.
I know a good everyday bag when I see one.
Ruched is simply another word for flattering.
I'll take all the miniskirts I can get.
Nordstrom outdid itself with these.
New season, new sunglasses.
Wear this day to night.
It's called a staple for a reason.
Style these with flats, pumps, and sneakers.
I love the size of this cute bag.
It's the reviews for me.
Oh, I love finding tank tops like this.
Bring on the cowl-necks.
There's just something about a skort.
It's even better as a set.
Halters for days.
Comfortable and chic.
Reformation tops are always winners.
Here for this vest moment.
A shirt that will go with everything you own.
This belt is absolutely stunning.
A waistcoat is the move.
The low back is everything.
Closing it out with an exceptional basic tank.
