Now that the holiday season has come to a close (sigh), I'm officially ready to get my 2025 wardrobe into gear. Huzzah! I'm already adding elevated, easy, and chic items to my cart from Nordstrom's epic Half-Yearly Sale, which is currently offering up to 60% off some of my favorite brands and styles right now. If you haven't managed to shop the massive sale yet, now is the perfect time to get your hands on a whole host of expensive-looking basics, staple jeans, chic shoes, and luxurious-looking items that will instantly elevate your wardrobe. Below, I'm sharing my must-have edit of chic and elegant pieces you don't want to miss. A word of advice: Don't sleep on it. The sale ends on January 6, so add these pieces to your cart while you still can!
