I Just Created 6 Jeans-and-Sweater Outfits From Nordstrom for Under $400

There's nothing like the thrill of putting together a great outfit, and with fall upon us, there's no better combo to rely on than a great pair of jeans and a cozy sweater. Since I've basically been living in tank tops and shorts for the past four months, I'm eager to add some fresh new sweaters and jeans into my wardrobe rotation. I made a beeline to trusty retailer Nordstrom, and after scouring the site, I assembled six effortlessly cool ensembles made up of the chic, classic, and fashion-forward knits and denim. The best part? Each look will cost less than $400. Music to my ears! Keep scrolling for the jeans-and-sweater looks to inspire your next fall outfit.
