There's no denying Nordstrom has become one of the go-to online stores for fashion lovers. It's no surprise since the retailer provides an endless selection of stylish pieces that satisfy a variety of personal styles and budgets. But this large offering can naturally be overwhelming when pursuing the site, especially to the untrained eye. That's where one handy pro tip comes in: keep an eye on Nordstrom's abundant review sections while you peruse different departments.
Nordstrom shoppers are notorious for taking advantage of the site's review options, which helps create a more effective shopping experience for the rest of us. Thanks to reviews, I've avoided ordering pieces with a bad fit, wrong size, wrong color, etc. To give you a sense of how helpful reviews can be, keep scrolling to check out 31 of the best-reviewed pieces at Nordstrom right now. I found everything from stylish printed skirts and effortless dresses to chic ballet flats and other cool basics. You're welcome.
"I first purchased this extremely versatile top in Lighthouse (off-white). After realizing how positively flattering it is, I went back for more and fast forward…I can now add True Black and Tranquil Lake (cornflower blue) to my growing collection." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I was looking for a summer straw bag, and this one caught my eye when walking by. I love the shape and design, and the color is so rich looking (darker than the pic online). I love the silver detail on the straps too. This bag is high-end looking!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"I love this material. I have ordered several wide-leg pants, and this one is by far the best for the price. Some I've ordered were over $200 and didn't fall as well as these. These are lightweight yet flow nicely and look good with t-shirts or sweaters. I love wearing it with sandals and a cropped shirt." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I wear a 14w/16w, am curvy, and carry most of my weight in my tummy area. This dress made me feel beautiful and on-trend. Normally trendy styles don't seem to be offered in quality materials (always offered in that stretchy fabric, sigh), but this dress is great on me. It's not clingy at all, so it does not hug my curves in any way. I am wearing this dress with a longer blazer and cute platforms. Try this dress. You might like it." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I wear this necklace along with my staple gold necklaces, and I always get so many compliments! So fun to layer with!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"Warning: I overuse the word perfect in this review. Wow. These are so perfect for me. They fit perfectly and are the perfect length (not too long and not too short, and they don't give me a wedgie). The green isn't too light or dark, a nice medium grass green that matches perfectly to the online image. I love them and wish I could get them in more colors. Come back for next spring and summer please!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"You need this in your wardrobe! This is the perfect boyfriend shirt. The quality of this shirt is amazing! The cut is ultra-flattering! I wear it with everything! It's perfect for work with black pants or paired with jeans for a more casual look!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"I have worn these shoes several times now. I absolutely love them. They are so comfortable in the soles, and have not rubbed in the heel or on the top of my foot where the fabric is. They are really cute and comfortable shoes." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I absolutely love the fit of these 501 '90s Levi jeans. The waist fits great, and the length is perfect. They are so comfortable, the fabric is soft, and the Mad Love and Drew Me In colors are perfect." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I highly recommend this top as a great go-to piece. The fabric is substantial, and the fit is flattering." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I really love Reformation's sustainability and high-quality fabrics. Sadly, most of their cuts are just not made for my pear shape. Enter: this dress. The bodice is well structured and the faux corset is adorable. The A-line skirt doesn't squeeze my hips and is incredibly flattering. The straps are adjustable with hidden buttons. And it's fully lined with pockets. If you're on the fence, just get it! It will be a staple for many years to come." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I have been wearing Converse for years because, to me, they are the most comfortable (other than running shoes) sneakers, and you can pair them with literally everything! I especially love the high tops!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"Super cute! Great quality! They look and feel more expensive than they are. I get so many compliments every time I wear them." — Nordstrom reviewer
"Wow, I had no idea I could love such a basic dress so much. The fit is so great, the length is perfect, it's cool and comfy, and I love having pockets. I just ordered it in the cream as well." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I have been searching far and wide for the perfect classic jeans. I've spent way too much trying to replicate it with other brands, but Levi's takes the cake." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I'm always on the hunt for dainty hoops. I've tried on thicker hoops in the past, and I don't feel like myself wearing them. These are the perfect size and thickness. They are nice quality as well." — Nordstrom reviewer
"Easy, chic, unfussy style. The elastic waistband is always comfortable, and both the front and back of the skirt still lay flat. Dress it up with heels or down with white sneakers and a T-shirt. I bought the champagne first. Just went back for the black." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I love this bag! Yes, it's small, but it's not meant to be an everyday purse. Use it for those extra special days!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"Awesome shirt! Great fit and love the fabric!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"Great construction. The material is thick enough to hold its shape. Great fit. Overall I'm happy and recommend this purchase. Looks great styled with blazers and especially trenches for a cool modern look." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I needed a blazer, and this one fits very nicely! So versatile I could wear it with everything!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"It took a skirt to boost my self-esteem. The material is light and airy, which was a plus. I'm very conservative in my dress apparel, and I thought at first that the side slit on the skirt was going to make me feel uncomfortable. On the contrary, I felt very comfortable since it is on the side and it stops perfectly on the upper thigh." — Nordstrom reviewer
"This swimsuit meets all of my criteria! It's black, it's flattering, it's super comfortable, it has molded cups that are sewn in place...it covers my rear-end! Win, win, win! And, to top it all off, the price is great!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"I am a huge fan of boots. I own pairs from Frye, Madewell, and Vagabond. So far, these are my favorite boots! I love the design. They are cool and easy to put on. The material is excellent. I wear these with jeans and dresses. I wear them to work and to go out on the weekends when I am trying to look cute." — Nordstrom reviewer
"Took this coat with me on a trip to London and Paris. It's versatile while still being cute with the pop of color. 10/10!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"This dress is so pretty, and the lines and design are really unique and beautiful. It's a unique, uncomplicated piece with no zippers or buttons, which I love. All lined in the body. Will be gorgeous with simple sandals." — Nordstrom reviewer
"Very flattering fit, true to size. Fabric is comfy, stretchy, and almost athletic or swim fabric. The material is thick enough to be smoothing but thin enough to still feel comfortable, light, and breathable. Very easy to dress up or down!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"I've been a part of the Felicia fan club for five years! I've tried several other ballet flats from different designers, but I always come back to my Felicia flats! The leather flats stretch out a bit, so I would say size half a size down if you're going with that option. The suede flats don't stretch that much, so they are true to size. Sam Edelman comes out with so many pretty and fun colors every year, and they go with everything from casual to office and dressy. I highly recommend these flats; I feel like I'm walking on a puffy cloud, and they're extremely comfortable! Will continue buying these again and again!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"The fit of this bodysuit is great! Material is thick (not see through), and you can use it without a bra and everything will stay in place." — Nordstrom reviewer
"The size, shape, and magnet closure make it an easy solution for running out with just a wallet, keys, and phone. It's unique enough to make a statement without being impractical. So glad I bought it." — Nordstrom reviewer
"If you typically don't love yourself in cutoffs, you might love these. They are the perfect combination of super flattering and cool shorts. The leg openings are not tight and therefore lend the ultra slimming effect, and the same goes for the looser/relaxed but not baggy fit. Just when I thought that the days of denim cutoffs were over for me, I discovered these, and I could not be happier. Buy them!" — Nordstrom reviewer
