As with other things in life, when it comes to fashion, my mom and I don't always see eye to eye. We aren't polar opposites in our looks by any means, but I tend to lean into more fashion-forward styling, and she stays in a more mainstream and polished space. This, of course, very much reflects our careers since I work in fashion, while she's a lawyer. If you were to draw a Venn diagram of our style preferences, the overlap would be very clear, especially if you were to also break down our favorite places to shop. One of the most resounding places would be Nordstrom—it truly has a great selection for every personal style.
With that in mind, my mom and I sat down for a little Nordy online-shopping session to see where we align for spring. First, we decided what categories we both often reach for. Think elevated basics like chic sweaters, classic jeans, and more. From there, we perused until something caught our attention. Needless to say, we left this session with a virtual cart full of goodies that made our list.
Ahead, check out all of the Nordstrom pieces my mom and I would both buy this season.
1. Relaxed Sweaters
When it comes to transitional pieces that allow us to stay warm on chilly spring days without sacrificing style, my mom and I couldn't be on the same page more. Relaxed sweaters are one item we both reach for, especially oversize styles.
Striped sweaters always.
This looks way more expensive than $119.
Very into this neutral color.
Polo sweaters are having a moment.
My mom especially loves this piece. For her, it's all about the "flowy fit."
2. Straight-Leg Jeans
What can I say? My mom and I are both huge fans of denim, and straight-leg jeans are one of the best styles to reach for when putting together an effortless look.
My mom wishes she had these jeans on her recent travels.
We could live in these.
These jeans are a true classic.
We both love Levi's jeans.
The crossover waistline makes these a standout pair.
3. Flat Black Shoes
Neither my mom nor I last very long in heels. It's for that very reason we are forever grateful for all the chic flat options on the market now. You'll notice we both like to stick to black picks.
Slingback flats always look chic.
These loafers are going to come in handy for many seasons to come.
Waterproof and stylish? Yes, please.
I live in these during the warmer months.
My mom and I both love shoes that are comfortable without sacrificing style.
4. Quilted Jackets
This is one of Wholesale Replica Bag trends that we can easily both agree on. My mom scored a cool black quilted coat the other day, and I just might have to steal it.
This cool jacket goes great with jeans.
A black quilted coat is great for layering over a variety of looks.
It's all about the versatility of this jacket for my mom.
This option comes in charcoal gray as well.
Timeless.
5. Stylish Tote Bags
Oh, tote bags… How we love thee. They are practical and roomy and come in a variety of styles. Both my mom and I are notorious for carrying a lot with us, so this bag style is a staple.
We both have a huge appreciation for an effortless black tote bag.
This tote only looks expensive.
My mom was sold on the modern woven design.
This standout tote is great for carrying every day and for the office.
If either of us is going to splurge on a tote, why not this sleek option?
6. Oversize Button-Down Shirts
As previously mentioned, my mom loves tops with an oversize fit, and button-down shirts are no exception. We wear ours with everything from jeans to leggings.
So good!
We love a great striped shirt.
My mom says this exudes a spring vibe.
Great for lounging or even running errands.
The styling possibilities are endless.
