Let's Keep It Simple and Fashionable—I Found the 35 Best Elevated Basics From the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Basics are known as the foundation pieces in a solid wardrobe, and Nordstrom is consistently a go-to for uncovering those versatile staples. With the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale officially on (early access has started for cardmembers, and everyone will be able to shop on July 12), I scrolled through the selection of discounted basics included in the offering to create an edit of the most fashionable basics. It's also worth noting that the items on sale during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale are new, which makes it even more epic.
Keep scrolling to shop a range of basics that will not only balance out your wardrobe but will also elevate it. I'm referring to items like cool tops, perfect jeans, sleek tailoring silhouettes, and more. There are also colder-weather pieces if you want to prep your fall wardrobe.
