I Dedicated 6 Hours to Shopping at Nordstrom, and These Were My Chicest Finds
I tend to go down rabbit holes when I shop online, opening up tab after tab until my laptop gets hot and starts humming, informing me that if I don't go outside and take a breather, the spinning ball of death will arrive and never leave. Despite the potential threat, I've never learned to shop online any other way in my 27 years. Take my last full day of shopping, for instance. I spent roughly six hours scrolling and clicking on Nordstrom.com until my computer got so hot it nearly burned me.
One of the reasons why I've never been able to kick the habit is because the outcome is always worth it. And this last time was no exception. During those six hours, I put together a heavily curated shopping cart of 32 of the chicest finds I've discovered all summer, including everything from quiet-luxury staples to of-the-moment buys destined to bring forth compliments. So make my technical difficulties worth it by shopping the contents of my Nordstrom wishlist below.
