If You Love Expensive-Looking Things, Shop These 33 Rich-Girl Nordstrom Sweaters
I'm ashamed to admit that despite only living in New York for two years, my sweater collection is overflowing. From flimsy knits I found in fast-fashion clearance bins to high-end pass-me-downs that I've "borrowed" from my sister's closet, there's no shortage of collared knits, cardigans, and pullovers in my tiny closet.
I've been trying to dwindle down my clothing collection as we head into the winter, but this year, I find myself being pulled to more and more attractive, timeless, and rich-looking pieces that I know I'll look and feel good in. Thankfully, while browsing Nordstrom's jaw-dropping sweater section full of well-priced gems, I stumbled upon 33 sweaters that look like they came straight out of a trust fund. While there's no exact outfit formula to replicate if you're aiming to achieve the rich-girl vibe, you can buy well-crafted, high-quality pieces that appear 10 times more expensive than they actually are.
Below, browse the best luxe-looking sweaters, cardigans, and knits available at Nordstrom for you to shop right now. You can thank me later!
This find looks so luxe that I did a double take to make sure the price tag wasn't above $500.
The marbled buttons on this structured cardigan are jaw-dropping.
This maxi knit is the perfect in-between cold-weather staple, doubling as a coat and a cozy knit for warmer winter days.
I'll buy anything Reformation makes—no questions asked.
Run, don't walk—this on-sale turtleneck that's perfect for layering won't stay in stock for long.
After fantasizing about the latest fall Prada show, I put V-neck sweaters high up on my buy list.
Pair this with some dark slouchy jeans, a black leather belt, and square-toed booties.
This boat neck is just as chic IRL as it looks online.
Reformation's high-quality cashmere sweaters are known for being some of our editors' favorites.
Sofia Richie Grainge would be proud of this classy yet cool cardigan.
