My Mom Is 62, and I’m 34—These Are the J.Crew, Nordstrom, and H&M Items We Love

My mother and I actually have pretty similar tastes when it comes to clothes. Yes, this is despite our age difference. (I’m 34, and she’s 62.) As age has nothing to do with what you should or shouldn’t wear, it can easily make sense that we share similar sartorial sensibilities. On that note, three stores we happen to both like are J.Crew, Nordstrom, and H&M. On one of her recent visits, we actually scrolled through the websites of each of the retailers because she wanted a bit of shopping inspiration

To give you some inspo if that’s of interest, I thought it could be fun to highlight the specific pieces from the trio of retailers that both my mom and I love for the season. Given that we’re heading deeper into the colder months and toward the holiday season, we both gravitated to those cozy knits, gorgeous outerwear moments (like the J.Crew stunner above), and pieces that could be great for gifting. Keep scrolling for more. 

This cardigan is at the top of my mom’s list.

Effortlessly chic.
