Do you ever feel like no matter what you do, your clothes and accessories just aren’t working for you? It could be that you weren’t prepared for the new season or your style changed or the trends changed or all of the above or none of the above! Regardless of the reason, however, I think we can all agree that it’s a feeling that makes one dread getting dressed in the morning. And with as much as we have going on in our days, nobody has time for that.
On that note, with the new season on the horizon, I recently did a bit of a closet cleanse and now feel like I have space in my wardrobe for some new pieces that will make my everyday outfits feel a little upgraded and a lot more current. From basics to trend pieces, I turned to our beloved Nordstrom to find 31 affordable items that fit the bill and go even beyond. In other words, wardrobe rut, begone! If you’re ready to shop my edit of cheap-but-chic buys that will upgrade your wardrobe on a budget, just keep scrolling.
