I count myself as one of the many people who turns to Nordstrom when I want something to wear that’s cool but I don’t feel like spending a lot of money on it. There’s so much to choose from that it can get overwhelming—so I let Nordstrom narrow it down for me a bit. I love an online retailer with a good filter function, and Nordstrom has one of the best I’ve encountered. You can filter the inventory by color, size, brand, occasion, and even fabric care—among others. But I usually keep things simple and just do a price filter.
For this roundup, I set the price limit at $100 and sifted through the results in search of the best basics and trendier items to fill my spring and summer wardrobe with. I’m pleased to say that I came across some items that were so good, they stopped me in my tracks. Scrolling on to shop them for yourself is highly advisable.
