What to Buy From Nordstrom If Your Vibe Is Hamptons Summer and Your Budget Is $100
Hamptons summer dressing is about so much more than where you physically are—it’s a state of mind. So whether or not you’re actually making your way out to Eastern Long Island between now and Labor Day, you can achieve the look if you want to. It entails a perfect balance of laid-back and put-together outfits that are indescribably chic, and most importantly, it's all in on the season at hand. That means linen, lace, sandals, dresses, and separates, all of which allude to a state of vacation, even on a Monday.
As I mentioned, it’s a way of dressing anyone can achieve, and today I’m here to prove it with 38 pieces that perfectly encapsulate the vibe, all under $100 and all from our beloved Nordstrom. From Topshop and Reformation finds to the new-to-me brand I’m kind of obsessing over and so much more, consider the below a best-of edit of Nordstrom’s many, many summer-ready options right now. Heard enough? Simply keep scrolling to get started and shop my picks.
Prepare for quite a few matching sets because, honestly, what's better?
Swap this in for your basic tank when you want a little upgrade.
I'm actually obsessed with this little thing.
For those of us who are committed to dressing in black year-round.
You already know my thoughts on this trend.
Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. Upon joining, she was a senior about to graduate from business school at USC. Fast-forward to 2025, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was just starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content and her Trust Me—Buy This newsletter. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to neutral, classic pieces but will always make an exception for something colorful or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a party is dressing up for one. On her downtime, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious and trying to force her husband to watch Summer House.
