Of all the department stores in all of the land, my favorite, by far, is Nordstrom. I’m a little biased because I did work for Nordstrom while in college and learned the ins and outs of almost every department. Shopping there feels so familiar and homey, but genuinely, the retailer has everything I’m looking for in exactly one place. As spring is warming up and summer is on its way, I have been shopping more than usual. The warm-weather months are my favorite fashion months. Short hemlines, bright colors, fun prints, sandals, sun hats—I just love everything about dressing for spring and summer. Now that my time to shine has finally arrived, I have been scrolling for hours on Nordstrom’s site looking for all of the things I’m going to be needing this season. I found 30 items, from the best dresses to wear to work or brunch to shoes I can’t wait to style, and my Nordstrom cart is stacked.
