I love a good basic. But I also love to uncover those special finds that have that wow factor. You know, those gems that make you stop scrolling and just stare a few extra seconds longer on the shopping page. Yes, this can sometimes be an elevated and trend-forward basic that has a little something extra, or it could be a new statement-making trend. Well, after going through Nordstrom's new arrivals, I uncovered quite the range of standout finds.
Below, you'll find new items that I think do have that wow factor. There's everything from fantastic outerwear—including an expensive-looking faux-leather bomber jacket—to stunning tops to chic dresses and shoes. Keep scrolling for all of that and more.
