My Friend Has $175 to Spend at Nordstrom, and I Told Her to Try These Sale Finds

One of my dear friends always enjoys it when I send her links to cute items I find while doing market research. She’ll also let me know if she’s looking for something specific and wants a recommendation. Recently, she texted me to say she has $175 to spend at Nordstrom and wanted to know what she should consider. I mentioned that the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is going on now (with prices going back up on August 7), so I sent her a few discounted items to try.
If you keep scrolling, you’ll find the three on-sale Nordstrom items I sent her because I think they’re super chic and could pair well with a range of other items in her closet. Given that the Anniversary Sale is almost over, I wanted to provide as much shopping inspiration as possible for you, dear readers, so I rounded up all the other items that are $100 and under that I loved as well.
My friend loves easy pieces that can elevate a look. This blazer will do just that.
