I find so much joy in shopping with my mom. We’ve done it together for as long as I can remember—both in person and now by browsing online even more and sending each other picks via text or on Instagram. Furthermore, as I recently shared, we both often gravitate toward classic fashion items—pieces that are timeless-feeling yet modern. And Nordstrom is one of the main retailers where we both uncover these types of pieces that have longevity.
In fact, I sat down with her on a recent visit, and we scrolled through the items on offer during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. Below you will find all of the discounted classic fashion items that piqued our interest the most. There’s everything from strong tailoring options to versatile slingbacks to chic outerwear that will withstand the test of time.
