Sure, a personal stylist would be lovely for day-to-day life, but no worries—you have me. I’m a fashion editor (specifically the shopping director here at Who What Wear), but you could also refer to me as your very own stylist or personal shopper, as I offer up a range of inspiration throughout my fashion content. Today, I’m here with seven summer outfits I styled using some of my favorite items from Nordstrom’s new-arrivals section.
The looks below run the gamut. There’s everything from a casual vibe to a more dressed-up situation if you’re in the market for a pretty outfit for an upcoming party. Oh, each entire ensemble also rings in under $375, with many of the individual picks coming in at under $100. Happy shopping.
Outfit 1
Lace shorts are trending right now, and I love the juxtaposition of styling the frilly piece with a sporty oversize sweatshirt. Here, I’d probably tuck in the sweatshirt for balance.
