I Shop for a Living—29 Anti-Trend Nordstrom Items I Want to Buy Immediately

While I love a statement piece as much as the next fashion person, there's something calming about incorporating high-quality classics and basics into your looks. Pared-down, affordable yet chic looks have been on my mind nonstop, so I've found some pretty pieces at Nordstrom that capture the chill aesthetic. There's no need to worry because I don't plan to keep these gorgeous finds to myself.
I've curated 29 stunning pieces across product categories that can be mixed and matched endlessly to form many anti-trend looks. Whether you're in the market for a little upgrade or a complete wardrobe overhaul, there's something here for you. Keep scrolling to uncover your new favorite wardrobe essentials, from perfect golden hoops and beautiful jeans to sandals that go with everything.
