I'm an equal opportunist when it comes to retailers. Recently, I've done stories on my favorite finds from
Other Stories, the best celeb-approved sneakers on Amazon, and Meghan Markle's sold-out Topshop blouse. That said, however adventurous I get with my online shopping, I always revert to an old favorite: Nordstrom. Why? For starters, I find the reviews to be extremely helpful when deciding what to buy.
Since spring is upon us, I decided to round up my favorite dresses and sandals with stellarReplica Store reviews. Just one of the dresses, for instance, has already racked up an impressive 2265 five-star reviews, while one pair of sandals has over 5000 five-star reviews. Shop these tried-and-true pieces below, and hear what customers have to say before you take the plunge.

Crimini Slipdress

Leith
Ruched Body-Con Tank Dress
Credentials: 2265 five-star reviews
What reviewers are saying: "Love this dress. I bought it for a trip to Aruba and I love that it can be casual with sandals or dressed up with heels and earrings. I'm usually a size 8 or 10 (5'6, 145 lbs) and ordered a size medium. It hugs the curves nicely (without showing too much) and the bottom of the dress elongates my legs. It fits perfect."
Credentials: 35 five-star reviews
What reviewers are saying: "Initially bought this just to try, and fell in love with this dress! The leg slit catches your eye. Love the high neckline, but has a cute back detail as well. Would definitely recommend!"
Birkenstock
Arizona Slide Sandals
Credentials: 962 five-star reviews
What reviewers are saying: "I didn't want to spend a ton of money for the leather version of these shoes so I got these instead. I love the color and they are so comfortable to wear and go with everything."
Gal Meets Glam Collection
Edith City Crepe Fit
Flare Midi Dress
Credentials: 87 five-star reviews
What reviewers are saying: "This dress is beautiful and classy AND it has deep pockets! What a pleasant surprise. I got many compliments on it."
Charles Henry
Off the Shoulder Dress
Credentials: 578 five-reviews
What reviewers are saying: "Bought this dress for a wedding—comfortable and elegant at the same time."
Credentials: 95 five-star reviews
What reviewers are saying: "Quality and workmanship is durable. The sole is hard as you can see from the pictures, but I've walked all day in them and my feet were never sore. The ONLY con is if you were to run across some rain, your foot easily slides in the sandal, but I don't take points off because it really is just that great!"
Eliza J
Bell Sleeve Tiered Fit
Flare Dress
Credentials: 10 five-star reviews
What reviewers are saying: "This dress is amazing! It fit perfect, it hugged my curves in the right places and flared where necessary. The material is beautiful."
All in Favor
Hailey Crepe Dress
Credentials: 526 five-star reviews
What reviewers are saying: "This dress is perfect for work! I love the material and weight. I still wear a slip underneath just in case. I am 5'7'' and would say it is the perfect length but anyone taller might find this to be too short for the office."
Sam Edelman
Yaro Ankle Strap Sandals
Credentials: 447 five-star reviews
What reviewers are saying: "I am absolutely in love with these shoes! I ordered them for work during which I am standing for long periods of time. They didn't hurt my feet at all and made me feel loads taller."
