As I recently highlighted, I tend to buy a lot of my basics at Nordstrom. The mega-retailer really does stock a variety of those versatile staples for just about every style. Well, given that fall is fast approaching (I know, wild), I thought I’d do a deep dive into the basics section to uncover some of the chicest autumn pieces that I like and thought you’d potentially be into as well.
In the end, there were about 24 key simple items that really caught my eye. Here, I’m talking about lightweight knits to wear during the transitional-weather temps, classic denim silhouettes, chic outerwear picks, and so on. Intrigued? Keep scrolling for my curation. You may just end up uncovering an item or two to act as one of the foundational elements in your fall wardrobe.
