I'm a VIP Nordstrom Stylist—I'm Over These 4 Items But Love These 4 Fresh Finds
When we're looking for expert shopping tips, Sandy Koszarek is always a go-to. The VIP Nordstrom stylist works with clients on a daily basis to test out new trends and explore their personal styles, so she certainly knows her stuff. She recently shared the trends that she thinks will help get your closet up to speed for the season. And now, she's taking her advice a step further by telling us which pieces she's currently over. Of course, it's worth noting that you should always wear what you love and what makes you comfortable.
Below, you'll find a list of the items Koszarek isn't feeling at the moment along with the fresh pieces she's loving instead (with photos to match). And if something specific catches your eye, you'll find a smattering of shopping picks to suit a variety of styles.
Into: Kitten or Block Heels
Not Into: Super-High Stilettos
"I'm over stilettos, but I love wearing a slide with a kitten heel or block heel. Both heel styles are trending and comfortable, creating a winning combination with jeans or dresses."
Into: Looser Jeans
Not Into: Skinny Jeans
"Jeans are one of the essential elements of a wardrobe, so having a pair you love to wear is important. Lately, I love wearing loose-fitting white jeans with a tank and a blazer for a business-casual outfit or with my favorite T-shirt, a handbag, and sandals for a weekend look."
Into: Larger Bags
Not Into: Super-Tiny Mini Bags
"As adorable as micro bags are, I have too many items to carry, so I'm choosing larger totes and handbags that will hold all my essentials."
Into: Denim Jackets
Not Into: Longline Cardigans
"I always have an extra jacket on hand, and during the summer months when the nights are cool, a jean jacket is my choice. From cropped to oversize styles, there's a denim jacket for everyone."
