January 07, 2022 at 09:35PM When it comes to great clothing basics, I’m always on the hunt for the perfect items. Whether it’s a pair of jeans that goes with absolutely anything, a jumpsuit that can be dressed up or down, or a jacket that can take me through every season, the shopper in me never sleeps. For the past few years, I’ve been spending $90 (yes, $90) on what I thought was the “perfect” basic T-shirt. I thought I had found the holy grail of T-shirts, so I kept repurchasing it year after year, even though my wallet screamed in protest. I recently decided to start looking for a better, more affordable option, and I stumbled upon an absolute gem: Old Navy’s Short-Sleeve UltraLite Cropped All-Day Rib-Knit T-Shirt ($12). When I first received it in the mail, my expectations were definitely low.…

January 07, 2022 at 09:10PM A new year often feels like an opportunity to start fresh with different aspects of your life, and one area that has the potential to (positively) spill over everything else is your closet. Don’t underestimate the power clothes have to set the tone for how people perceive and address you. Take stock of the pieces you reach for regardless of the season, and consider either upgrading them or growing the collection.

Nordstrom has a wide array of pieces designed to achieve all of these goals, and more. Look to the retailer for stylish clothes available at every price point, and to give…

January 07, 2022 at 08:20PM Knee-high boots are having a moment - for good reason! They’re chic as hell and can instantly transform a winter outfit from good to great. The thing is, the majority of styles that I’ve had my eye on cost well over $100. And as someone who shops savvy and hates breaking the bank, I’ve been waiting for just the *perfect* opportunity to arise to add a pair to cart. So when I came across the block-heeled Scoop Women’s Stove Pipe Knee High Croco Boots ($29, originally $59), I was cautiously optimistic. You see, I’ve shopped the Walmart brand’s Cozy Mock Neck Sweater With Balloon Sleeves and Faux Leather Jumpsuit before and fell in love with both. But, somehow, boots felt riskier, especially these ones, in particular, look like straight-up luxury. I purchased the burgundy pair, and when they…

January 07, 2022 at 07:25PM With a new year brings a fresh start and a chance to reimagine your look and your routine for the months ahead. Maybe that includes a refresh for your personal style as well? We’ve all hit a bit of a lull with parties and events lately, but there is one thing that can dress up everything from sweats to ready to wear - and that’s a new bag. Buying a luxury item is a big investment, and you want to choose something you’re going to love and wear often, as well as a piece that retains its value if you ever choose to resell. While there are many beautiful options to choose from, there are certain investment bags and brands that are sure to be instant collectibles. Here, from a new riff on Gucci’s iconic horsebit bag to…
