An Italian Woman Walks Into Nordstrom—35 Items She'd Buy From Its Epic Sale

We talk a lot about French style here at Who What Wear, but there's no question that Italian style should not be overlooked. Every time I visit the country, observe my favorite Italian influencers, or swoon over the looks during Milan fashion week, I am reminded why Italian women are the ones to study. From their love of texture and sense of luxury to their exquisite tailoring and chic color palette (cream, gray, caramel, chocolate, plus splashes of color and not to mention metallic), along with their exuberant fabrics and enviable sense of glitz and glamor, Italian fashion is all about the Feel Good or la dolce vita!
With Italian style in mind, I've combed through Nordstrom's epic Anniversary Sale to see what items ooze the Italian fashion aesthetic. From mini skirts to metallics—take a peek below to see the (discounted!) items an Italian woman would most definitely pick up from Nordstrom's big sale.
