My mom and I are multiple states and 32 years apart. She's 4'11" and I'm 5'8," and if you looked at the outfits we individually put together, you'd be hard-pressed to find similarities. Yet whenever we shop at Nordstrom together (something we've been doing since I was a toddler tagging along on a mall trip from the comfort of my stroller), we tend to take a liking to the same things. It's like the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants phenomenon, but with a mother and daughter, and instead of one pair of pants, it's a heap of chic buys fromReplica Store.
When I was at home recently, we shopped Nordstrom to no end together, both ordering a few of the same items. Afterward, we started planning for 2024 in the retailer's new-arrivals section. As usual, our picks weren't very far off from each other's. Below, take a look at the 37 items my 60-year-old mom and I are both looking to add to our 2024 wardrobe rotations, from cashmere knits and elevated denim to suede accessories and LBDs.
Nordstrom
Wool
Cashmere Crewneck Sweater
We're cashmere people through and through, so this cashmere-and-woolReplica Store sweater was always going to agree with us.
Nordstrom
Double Loop Trouser Belt
Add this gorgeous brown belt to your rotation.
Levi's
501 Ripped High Waist Straight Leg Jeans
Usually, my mom and I disagree only on jeans because of how different our needs are in the denim department, but these Levi's passed both of our tests.
Khaite
Large Maeve Suede Weekend Bag
The only word my mom used to describe this bag? "Wow."
Reformation
Dusk Stretch Organic Cotton Knit Top
The high neck and wide straps make this tank look far more elevated and ageless compared to standard scoop- and halterneck alts.
Avec Les Filles
Notched Collar Faux Fur Coat
I live in New York and my mom lives in Michigan, so a warm coat that's also cute and comfortable is key to surviving the winter.
Cast
The Halo Stacking Ring
"Classic, elegant yet casual, and comfortable to wear I bet," she said.
Other Stories
Wool Coat
We were just talking about wanting dark-brown wrap coats and then stumbled upon this one. It's perfect.
Vagabond Shoemakers
Maya Sneaker
"When it comes to sneakers, I like them to look as non-logo covered as possible," my mom told me, and I couldn't agree more.
Zella
Studio Luxe High Waist Pocket 7/8 Leggings
Whenever I'm home with my mom, I instantly become a legging person again. Her affinity for them rubs off so quickly.
Open Edit
Polished Teardrop Stud Earrings
Easy, lightweight earrings that go with everything but also dress up even the laziest of outfits are generally beloved in my family.
Nordstrom
Oversize Wool
Cashmere Sweater
Cashmere and a pop of color—what more could anyone ask for?
Rag
Bone
The Vee Slub Cotton T-Shirt
OneReplica Store reviewer said, "I have been searching high and low for the perfect tee and this is it." That was enough to convince us both to add one to our carts.
Loulou Studio
Rona Denim Maxi Skirt
This skirt with knee-high boots feels very Keri Russell in The Americans to me. We both feel that Elizabeth is an ageless style icon.
Tory Burch
Robinson Spazzolato Shoulder Bag
I didn't shut up about the Toryssance the whole time I was home, so my mom ended up scrolling through all of the options atReplica Store to see what all the hype was about. She understandably fell hard and fast over this dove-gray shoulder bag with a flap opening, inside pocket, and adjustable strap.
Fifth
Ninth
Taya 53mm Polarized Oval Sunglasses
"I like these because they remind me of you," she said. No wonder I've had them in my cart for months.
I actually already own this cashmere LBD, but since my mom's trying to get back into wearing more black after investing in a ton of colorful and printed pieces last year, I immediately recommended it to her.
Anne Klein
Brenice Knee High Boot
Anne Klein's footwear is all over TikTok right now, so my mom and I perused the offering atReplica Store over coffee in the morning and quickly became obsessed with these under-$150 suede knee-high boots. Can you blame us?
Natura Bissé
Diamond Extreme Rich Texture Moisturizer
I got this moisturizer for my mom last year for Christmas, and she's been raving about it ever since. It is definitely an investment, but given her response to it, I'd say it's a worthy one.
MANGO
Tortuga Tie Waist Blazer
"Because I'm more petite, a jacket that cinches in like this is preferable to an oversize one every time," says mom.
Mango
High Waist Raw Hem Wide Leg Jeans
My mom's petite frame means she needs a denim fit that's a bit more cropped, so these are perfect for her.
Oroblu
Perfect Line Tulle Trim Stretch Modal T-Shirt
We Hubers are layerers, a skill we picked up living in Chicago in regular below-zero winters, so long-sleeve tees are beloved throughout the family.
Sanctuary
Dreamgirl Button-Up Top
In her opinion, if it's soft and it looks good on, it's a winner. This Sanctuary button-down certainly checks off both boxes.
Madewell
Crop (re)generative Chino Utilitarian Jacket
Maybe if I can get my mom to buy this jacket, I can borrow it for large chunks of the year.
Madewell
The Zip Top Essential Tote
Leather is one thing my mom and I never disagree on.
Bardot
Nadira Midi Slipdress
This silky midi can be worn as a skirt with a big cashmere sweater or a dress on its own with tights and boots.
Free People
Maraya Cotton Button-Up Blouse
When I think of tops my mom would like, this exact shape comes to mind immediately.
Bobbi Brown
Extra Lip Tint Sheer Tinted Lip Balm
Neither my mom nor I are big on heavy makeup, so tinted balms like this one we can sneak onto our cheeks when on the go and in need of some color are ideal.
Reformation
Fantino Recycled Cashmere Blend Cardigan
If a cashmere obsession is wrong, we don't want to be right.
Madewell
Super Wide Leg Jeans
I still remember my mom owning wide-leg, dark-wash jeans like this when I was young that I think were from Gap. I always made her wear them to parent-teacher conferences. Of course, she's gotten rid of them by now, so I showed her this pair to replace them.
If you live in places with snow like we do, Uggs are an obvious wish-list item. We both agreed that these slippers are perfect for keeping by the front door to throw on to walk the dogs in the morning (her) or run to pick up takeout during a snowstorm (me).
Nordstrom
Cotton
Cashmere High-Low Poncho
I have a strong feeling that scarf coats are going to bring forth the rise of chic, modern ponchos and capes. I should've known, as my mom's always loved them.
Cinq à Sept
Mckenna Knot Waist Shirt
"All of the pants I picked were chosen to pair with this top," she told me. "It's just so special."
Favorite Daughter
The Favorite Pant Pleated Cotton Pants
Trousers like these will go so well with the top above.
Chanel
Baume Essentiel Multi-Use Glow Stick
If it's a beauty product that says "multiuse" in the product description, you can pretty much guarantee that either my mom or I are very much interested in purchasing it. We're predictable like that.
Reformation
Arco Sleeveless Cashmere Sweater
This mock-neck especially impressed my mom because of the cinched-in waist. She's not one to want to swim in her sweaters.
Vince
Slip Skirt
We've both had this Vince slip skirt on our wish lists for years, and 2024 just might be the year we finally splurge on it.
