The Best Elegant Fashion Items at Nordstrom Under $100
Is there anyone out there who actually doesn’t want to look elegant? Especially when it’s so easy to do so. As we always say, dressing in a way that looks chic and expensive (aka quiet luxury) is more about what kind of pieces you choose and how you style them than how much you spend. To prove it, today I’ve rounded up 31 finds from Nordstrom that achieve all the above qualities and more without breaking the $100 barrier.
From dresses and sandals to matching sets, belts, and more, below you’ll find everything one could want for a stylish spring and summer if their goal is to look like they invented the “old money” aesthetic. If this sounds like it’s up your alley, simply keep scrolling to get started shopping my picks.
