30 Early Fall Nordstrom Items That Are Giving "Chic Fashion Person on the Streets of Paris"
Elevated and cool.


I've never been to Paris in the fall months, but I always have this fantasy in my head of sauntering down those Parisian streets on a brisk autumn morning in an effortlessly chic look. You know, very je ne sais quoi. While meandering the streets of Paris won't be a reality this year (for me, at least), wearing Parisian-inspired looks could be. I follow a smattering of chic Parisians on Instagram for inspiration to get that French look, and many are featured above. Oh, and Nordstrom is consistently a go-to spot to find pieces to master that chic, no-fuss aesthetic—especially its department of elevated basics.
With all of this in mind, I scrolled through the Nordstrom new-arrivals section to uncover early fall pieces and transitional items that could totally give off that "I'm a chic fashion person on the streets of Paris" vibe. Continue scrolling to browse a selection of sleek tailoring silhouettes, easy denim finds, elegant knits, and more.
