Parisians and New Yorkers Are Stylish, Period—Here's What They'd Buy From the Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale
Elevated basics, cool shoes, and so much more.


If I were to name two sets of incredibly stylish people, Parisians and New Yorkers would be at the top of the list. We highlight fashion people who reside in these cities regularly at Who What Wear because these style setters are known for their cool and effortless outfits. As a result, many of the specific items they turn to are modern and elevated in nature. And yes, Nordstrom always stocks a variety of these types of pieces.
The Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale is going on right now, and while Nordstrom doesn't exist in France yet, I have a feeling that New Yorkers and Parisians would love many of the same chic items included in the offering if they both shopped the sale together.
Keep scrolling to shop next-level basics, elegant shoe styles, cool summer staples, and more from the Half-Yearly Sale to emulate that New York and Parisian look.
