Nordstrom is a go-to for many reasons, but its robust selection of basics is one of the reasons I consistently turn to the retailer for my shopping and to find selects for you, dear readers. And that’s what’s coming your way below. I went through the basics department at Nordstrom to uncover the chicest basics available.
The 30 basics in the edit could become new staples when you want to look instantly chic because they’re modern and forward while still versatile. I’m referring to items like cool tanks and linen shirting that would look perfect with jeans. Oh and speaking of denim, there’s everything from a classic straight-leg cut to an of-the-moment barrel silhouette.
