No matter the season, one of the first places I like to peruse when I decide to do some shopping at Nordstrom is the denim department. The popular retailer is known for having an endless selection of cool denim options at a variety of price points, so there is never a moment when I don't have a pick or two hanging out in my virtual Nordy cart. In fact, one of the best times to stock up is during one of its epic sales. Luckily, the upcoming Nordstrom Anniversary Sale happens to start on July 15.
To help you navigate the stellar denim selection at Nordstrom—which has thousands of pieces—I broke down the best picks into five categories: shorts, jeans, dresses, shirts, and jackets. It was hard to narrow everything down, but it was well worth the effort. Keep scrolling to shop 25 cool picks that I can't get off my denim-obsessed mind.
Shorts
Whether you like super-short cutoffs or are leaning toward a trendy longer cut like Bermuda shorts, there's a cool option for every personal style.
Jeans
Straight-leg jeans continue to reign supreme in a variety of washes and lengths.
Dresses
This season, denim dresses have really been thrown into the spotlight, varying from everyday options to elevated picks.
Shirts
Denim shirts always seem to hold a spot in the hearts of fashion people. Wear your favorite pick alone or layered over a variety of looks.
Jackets
There's nothing you could say to convince me that denim jackets will ever go out of style. The classic outerwear option instantly adds a cool factor to just about any outfit.
