When I’m shopping for something new to add to my wardrobe, there are certain criteria a piece must meet. Yes, it being chic and relevant are two important factors. As a result, it’s often elevated basics—pieces that are forward, modern, and easy to style—that are of interest. You too? Wonderful. You’re going to be quite interested in what’s coming your way. I should also mention that Nordstrom is one of the key retailers that the editors here at Who What Wear (myself included) turn to for a top-notch assortment of basics.
I scrolled through the site one afternoon to curate an edit of the most fashionable basics that will elevate any closet. Below, you’ll find everything from classic-feeling shirts to pretty skirts to cool pants that will carry you into fall.
