Nordstrom Top 10 Sale List: Handpicked for the Ladies

An office to dinner dress that is high on style and comfort, this Eliza J dress is all about the interesting printed fabric. It has great stretch to it and texture that lends to a concealing visual, accented by ts simple shape that is designed to cleverly flatter. With a pretty mix of charcoal grey and white, as well as long sleeves and a midi-length (hitting below the knee), its easy with black tights and pumps, booties, or even high boots.

Theory is a go-to resource for work-ready pieces that have a tailored, timeless appeal, yet always look fashionable. This tweed a-line sleeveless dress is easy with black tights and boots, booties, or menswear-inspired loafers. And it’s not too short – hitting mid-thigh to just above the knee on most ladies. Once you click through, you’ll see Nordstrom shows it with a sleeveless turtleneck (we’re showing you how it looks on its own here). And it looks just as good with a crisp white button down or a long-sleeve turtleneck, too. You can easily layer a simple black cardigan over it, too.

Substantial and rich looking, this gorgeous Lafayette 148 New York’s navy long sweater coat is a sale investment you’ll cherish. It only has a touch of wool, so the weighty fabric won’t get you too hot, and it will be something you can reach for with your white jeans on a Spring/Summer evening – after you’ve had plenty of wear out of it with anything from wool camel or grey trousers and simple top or dark jeans and a tee in the colder months. Lafayette’s easy fit makes it a breeze to layer over anything and bring an instant sophistication to a casual or work look. (For something more relaxed, Vince’s open version is a fabulous sale Find, too.)

This Splendid open cardigan is so, so soft. Made of high-quality Supima cotton, the waffle knit gives it a pretty texture and substantial look in a weight that can be worn year round – over a tank top, long sleeve tee, or even a casual button down. An easy decision, you’ll throw this on all the time, so it's worth picking up the white version, too.

Joie is one of our favorite brands, with a relaxed style that can also have a dressy feel, with a loose and comfortable shape that is wonderful for everyone. The charcoal grey ground of this sophisticated floral printed silk blouse has a seasonless feel and isn’t overly girly. It can be worn tucked or untucked. Just add a cami in black or grey and pair it with simple black pants or dark jeans for a casually sophisticated – and just so lovely – night out look.

The details on this Rebecca Taylor blouse are beautifully feminine, with lace accents and raw sleeve edges that really show off the luxury quality. On sale, it’s time to snatch it up. The easy fit and ruffle bottom looks great on ladies of all shapes, concealing with effortless style. Just add a black cami underneath and your favorite skinny bottoms to balance the relaxed volume.

James Perse is known for their exquisite quality in casual, timeless pieces. These pull-on crepe pants use the best of the comfortable attributes the brand is known for, in a shape and material that can be worn to work and dinner, too. The rise sits at the waist with a wide stretchy waistband that is not only so comfy, but sucks you in, too – not bad post-holidays, right? We like it best with any top that conceals the waistband though, to highlight the wide leg and chic fabric that has beautiful drape. Tunic styles and sweaters with a band or slit bottom look great, and flats or heels work equally well.

Whatever the current “trend”, skinny black jeans with a higher rise is always a truly flattering way to go. They look chic on a casual day at the office with a tailored button-down and flats; and, they look stylishly edgy with a silky top or pretty sweater and heels or boots for a great night out. The black wash has a slight fade that is completely versatile - we are using 3x1’s own picture here, which reflects a more accurate color and fit than you’ll see on Nordstrom’s site once you click through the ‘shop it’ button. The rise sits just at/below your belly button preventing muffin top and love handles and gives them a timeless feel that looks good all the time. Their secret trick to making your thighs look so skinny in these is a channel seam that runs along the inner thigh – it works. We expect nothing less from 3x1, since the line started making custom bespoke jeans. They are a contemporary fit, but the denim has great stretch to it, so they run true to size – not too skinny. They are also on sale in this distressed blue wash for a casual look that you can wear all weekend long.

Equipment’s amazing 100% cashmere v-neck sweater in an easy, relaxed fit will simply never go out of style – and available in a few colors on sale through the ‘shop it’ button, there’s one (or two) for everyone. Whether you wear it with a pencil skirt or trousers, jeans or leggings, you’ll reach for it day after day.

BONUS FIND: There’s still a lot of winter weather ahead, and this Spiewak coat will get you through it. A brand we’ve loved for years, they pay attention to every detail – in both functionality and in style. This parka is insulated with down, has cuffs you can easily pull down over your hands (wear them over or under your gloves), and the fur trim on the hood can be removed on those really wet days – a great perk, since the fabric of this coat is water resistant. In XS-XL, we love this olive brown and it comes in a washed red through the ‘shop it’ button, too. Grab either color if your size is still available.
