I tend to buy a lot of my basics at Nordstrom. The mega retailer really does stock a variety of those versatile staples for just about every style. Given that fall is fast approaching (I can't believe I'm saying those words), I went on a deep dive into the basics section at Nordstrom to uncover the chicest fall staples that are catching my eye and just may catch yours too.
Below, I'm sharing my carefully curated edit of fall staples that have my full attention, from lightweight knits to wear during the transitional-weather temps and staple jeans to outerwear picks and classic shoes. No doubt, these pieces will become the versatile items I'll reach for on repeat throughout the new season.
