My Best Friend Has $200 to Spend at Nordstrom—I Suggested These Affordable Items
Given my role in fashion, I'm typically the one in my friend group who fields all of the style and shopping questions. And yes, I live for it. One of my best friends received a $200 Nordstrom gift certificate as a present and wanted my advice on what she should consider buying. Given that Nordstrom is one of my go-to stores, I couldn't wait to scroll through the new arrivals to send her a list of my favorite items.
Below, you'll uncover a sampling of the pieces I told her to consider. The first five on the list were my front-runners for her. Oh, and fun fact, everything I sent her skewed on the more affordable side with an under-$100 price point.
Keep scrolling to check out expensive-looking finds from Nordstrom that are chic and modern thanks to forward design details.
I told my friend that she had to try flat Mary Janes this season.
