I'm a Shopping Expert—These New Nordstrom Arrivals Are My First 2023 Purchases
New year, new me. Or at least that's what I tell myself as I spend the first few days of the year scrolling endlessly to figure out what my personality will be for 2023. Although I have my aesthetic nailed down (barely, if we're being honest!), I can't resist browsing the Nordstrom new arrivals at the start of each month for hours on end.
Now that New Year's Eve has come and gone, all eyes are on what's "in" and "out" in 2023—aside from the viral social media lists everyone was posting on the last day of the year. While I'm a sucker for trends, elevated basics will always be my first love, and thankfully, the Nordstrom new-arrivals section is full of affordable finds with timeless, elegant picks. Plus, with a lower price tag comes the ability to try out new styles, trends, and pieces to incorporate into your wardrobe in 2023. It's a win-win scenario all around.
Below, shop all of Nordstrom's can't-miss new arrivals to kick off 2023.
I've said it once, and I'll say it again: Denim never goes out of style.
This is my official plea to bring back 2013-era indie sleaze staples, including the iconic Hunter wellies.
After seeing one too many holiday present hauls on TikTok featuring Bedhead Pajama sets, I'm officially influenced.
Wear this chic dress to all those dinner dates you planned to "circle back to" in the New Year.
Mini bags are so last year. Enter maxi bags for the latest purse trend of 2023 you need to know about.
This dark gray wash shirt is perfect for layering with funky jackets—just read what our layering expert in residence has to say about it.
I've written about my love for Reformation's everyday trousers before, but now that Nordstrom has restocked a ton of colors and sizes, you better believe I'm running to snag all of them this year.
Even though I'm a high-waist devotee, these low-rise jeans just might change my mind this year.
If you're looking for a pair of sweatpants for a workout session at 6 and a girls' night out at 7, look no further.
Thanks to Miu Miu being one of the biggest brands of 2022, ballet flats are still all everyone will be talking about this year.
Here's my formal petition to make denim on denim unironically cool again in 2023.
House of CB always makes the prettiest corsets and corset dresses.
After seeing Paris Hilton perform "Stars Are Blind" during New Year's Eve, I suddenly have an affinity for velour.
While I'm already obsessed with 2023 sneaker trends, these classic white sneakers take the cake.
You can never have too many expensive-looking turtleneck sweaters.
Another year, another pair of leggings you need in your life.
The pretty things trend isn't going anywhere in 2023.
Farm Rio is one of the trendiest brands to shop, so it makes sense this restocked cardigan is likely to sell out on Nordstrom.
This ultra-wide-cut coat is perfect for an effortlessly chic winter look complete with a neutral knit top and jeans.
Channel your inner Tumblr It Girl with these heart buckle Doc Marten stompers.
The "vanilla girl" TikTok crowd would be pleased with this cozy fleece from The North Face.
Delicate details on this little black dress—including the feather trim, open back, and bow accent—are warming up my heart.
Quilted jackets may be the best upcoming outwear trend of 2023, hands down.
