From Dinner to the Ballet: 32 Gorgeous Nordstrom Clothes for Going Out
There is nothing quite like a night on the town. Whether you’re going on a first date, wining and dining on fancy fare, or even headed to the ballet, there’s something magical about a rendezvous under the stars. I don’t know about you, but a killer look paired with the feeling of having the whole night ahead of me is unlike any other. To achieve said look, I love to dig through Nordstrom’s tried-and-true virtual aisles for looks that will take someone’s breath away. I’ve hand-picked a slew of chic going-out clothes from Nordstrom that are flying off the shelves.
Ahead, shop lingerie-inspired pieces, silky fabrics, and showstopping styles that are made for shining in the moonlight. Keep scrolling for sleek dresses, sultry tops, and so much more.
Pair with tights and a cute heel for an instantly gorgeous look.
This beautiful dress is great for dinner, a play, or really anything the night calls for.
There are so many cute tops in this story that would pair seamlessly with these on-trend capris.
This sheer skirt could be worn for a more elevated event.
If you're not a big fan of full-on tights, try these instead.
I love the vintage look of these. Add some tights and you have a look.
Okay, hear me out. If you have an inkling a proposal is happening at your fancy dinner res, this would be the dress for you.
A little pop of vibrancy to light up the night.
