My mom and I talk about fashion quite often. I've actually featured some of her favorite items before. For reference, she's 62 (age has nothing to do with what you should or shouldn't wear, but I'm always interested in her experienced sartorial point of view), lives in the Midwest, and has a style that's classic with a twist. She also loves shopping at Nordstrom and considers it to be one of her go-to stores.
On that note, my mom recently asked me for advice on what she should add to her closet for spring. She wanted that "fashion-editor opinion." She actually sent me links to a few items she added to her Nordstrom cart, and I approved of a few because of their versatile and forward nature. I also sent her other items to consider.
Keep scrolling to check out the list—the first nine pieces below. I also rounded up a smattering of additional finds at Nordy for further inspiration.
My mom sent me this shirt first because she loves an elevated basic.
Bermuda shorts are my mom's jam.
My mom adores Staud bags and has her eye on this stunner.
She is feeling this shape for comfort and style purposes.
I know she'd style this printed skirt with a slouchy white tee.
My mom told me how happy she is that some of the staples she used to wear are back at the forefront of fashion.
She's also been getting more and more into blazers to wear with her tees and jeans. I love this one.
I just adore these expensive-looking sandals.
