When it's warm, 70-something degrees, and the clouds have graciously decided to disappear, I don't go to the park, I go window-shopping. Most malls in Los Angeles have the distinction of being outside, so taking a moment to stroll between stores is essentially like taking laps in Central Park ( at least in my head anyway).
Last weekend during one of those outings, I skipped all of the other stores and headed straight for Nordstrom. It wasn't like I needed another summer dress, but I was shopping for one anyway, and of course, ultimately I ended up leaving with more. The retailer's assortment of new arrivals are extra noteworthy, so much so that I'm still thinking about them days later. From dainty summer dresses to dreamy sandals, here are the new finds still occupying every inch of my brain. Keep click to shop them all.
Turns out Madewell is good at a lot of things outside of amazing jeans.
Even as a non-shorts person, I can admit flowing shorts are a game-changer.
Not too slouchy, and not a skinny fit, these are my perfect fit.
Theoretically, this could also be a coverup, but as a dress its gorgeous.
The high neck is exceptionally chic.
I'm firmly into my denim maxi skirt era, and this is at the top of my list.
I know we're in sandal season, but Jordans as cool as these shouldn't be ignored.
Simple dresses like this can be the baseline of so many good outfits.
Never thought I'd be back into looking preppy but here we are.
So pretty.
Linen trousers are a must.
Even when I'm packing light, a heeled mule sandal will always be in my suitcase.
Every cool person I know loves Paloma Wool.
Shades of tangerine are all I want to wear this summer.
I can already tell I'll be wearing this nonstop.
House of CB is singlehandedly taking over my collection of summer dresses right now.
I honestly can't think of a more perfect set.
Everything about this top just speaks to me.
Wear it with sneakers or fun minimal sandals.
No one does prints like JPG.
Yes this color is everything but have you seen the fringe?!
The unofficial cool girl sunglasses of the season (and they're by Acne Studios).
For the brand's recent collection, it pulled out a variety of beloved archival prints, including this one.
I'm into the schoolgirl vibes here.
I've argued for the importance of silk dresses before, but if you have yet invest in a good one here's your chance.
100% I'll be dreaming about this until its actually in my closet.
Summer goths rejoice.
A shirt to help in case you get lost.
PSA: It's time to retire the black handbags.
