It takes a special breed of shopper to spend three hours scrolling through Nordstrom's thousands of spring and summer items in an effort to narrow them down to a digestible (and shoppable) number. Fortunately for everyone who doesn't have the time or the desire to do that but still wants a perfect warm-weather wardrobe, I pretty much define that breed. Yes, I've already devoured Nordstrom's entire website and handpicked the best pieces that call it home, and no, I won't gatekeep my findings.
Below, discover a mix of minimalistic staples that will become the backbone of your look this season and statement add-ons to elevate your every outfit. Think tortoiseshell sunglasses, shell-shaped earrings, and pop-of-color footwear as well as timeless white skirts and trousers, easy sundresses, and the only swimsuit you'll want to wear from now until August. Simply put, there's a little something to check off everyone's shopping needs this spring and summer, and it's all just one quick scroll away.
Everyone I know who owns a Hunza G one-piece raves about it and refuses to wear anything else.
These are guaranteed to sell out by the first day of summer. Just you wait.
The fit of this mini is just supreme.
I practically live in white pants in the summer, probably because I always see French and Italian women wearing them.
These will make every outfit better.
I've been counting down the days for Tory Burch's spring collection to arrive in stores, and now that it has, I'm even more smitten and ready to splurge.
It's true—capris are here to stay.
Did I just find the perfect summer work tote? Yes, yes I did.
I fell hard and fast for this billowy white sundress. It would really work for every occasion.
These are giving strong CBK vibes.
The viral Reformation top I can't stop thinking about.
This low-rise skirt is at the top of my buy list.
We're not talking enough about Madewell's jewelry collection. It's so good right now.
The sheer details on this classic Vince LBD make it look miles more elegant.
The founder of Larroudé, Marina Larroudé, wore these all over Japan on a recent trip, and if that's not proof that they're comfortable enough to press "add to cart," I don't know what is.
The perfect pop of color.
I'm slowly but surely building a massive collection of white A-line skirts, and I'm not stopping anytime soon.
Bigger belts like this one from Mango are having a serious moment this season.
If you're in the mood to splurge a little on something you'll wear again and again for years to come, this trench is the guy for the job.
*Copies this entire outfit immediately.*
I tried these on recently at Nordstrom's NYC flagship and was pleasantly surprised at how much I loved the vintage shape of them. They're very elegant and refined.
This shade of blue reminds me of one that littered Gucci's spring collection but for a fraction of the price.
These white jeans from Madewell are truly one of my favorite items for summer. I have them in denim and linen and can't recommend them enough.
The summer version of Ferragamo's Hug bag has been living rent-free in my head for weeks now. I think I need one.
Cashmere for spring and summer might seem like an odd proposal, but I always love tucking mine into denim shorts to give them a more sophisticated look. Also, nights can get chilly, so having a sweater to toss over your shoulders or tie around your waist is essential.
I'm so here for the long-shorts trend.
I can't believe these already went on sale. I've been sharing the link with everyone I know—they're just so simple and chic.
A great pair of earrings is always a good idea.
Just easy.
These tiny Le Pliage bags are great for traveling. They pack flat, look cute with everything, and feel a bit more durable than something fully leather.
I stock up on these poplin shirts every time the weather warms up, knowing full well that I'll wear them three to four times per week.
Everyone should own at least one pair of vintage or vintage-looking 501 Levi's. I want that written into fashion law.
Something about the color and striped designs on these Rag & Bone slides just called out to me.
