Calf-Hair, Suede, Espresso—30 Luxurious Nordstrom Items I'm a Little Too in Love With

Quiet luxury is fine, but this fall, the chicest people know that louder and more maximalist pieces are the far more forward way to look luxurious. I'm talking about elements like tactile pony-hair finishes, luscious silk staples, sumptuous suede, and everything espresso brown that are the foundations for the most wealth-coded wardrobes of fall 2025.
I, for one, can't get enough of the trend and after doing a deep-dive into the Nordstrom fall collections, I'm convinced that the retailer is home to the most elite assortment. Every once in a while (okay fine, at least once per week) I like to spend an hour or so flipping through the site's new arrivals just for fun and on the latest occasion I made it my mission to source the most luxurious and quite frankly expensive-looking items the retailer has to offer right now. From calf-hair belts to suede bags and croc-embossed boots, continue on to shop the items that will make the chicest impact in your fall wardrobe.
