I can't get over how amazing Nordstrom's early Black Friday deals are. The retailer seriously brought it with huge discounts on coveted items before Cyber Week technically begins. You're probably already aware that Nordstrom is one of my favorite stores. It's also a go-to for my mom.

I should also mention that shopping together is one of our favorite activities. (We often gravitate toward similar pieces.) On that note, we spent many hours together holiday shopping in-store and also browsing online (literally like three hours in total) to find standout wardrobe staples and gift ideas.

Ten Nordstrom items from the early Black Friday sale became front-runners for us because they skew on the classic side—a vibe we adore because of its longevity and perennial chicness. You'll find the list below (the first 10 in the group). I also rounded up even more amazing items I think you'll love from the sale.
