Nordstrom Sale: Wear Now & Later

Granted, our denim jacket season is short in Dallas. However, this boxy denim trucker jacket is too cute not to share. Would be great over summer dresses in cold restaurants and movie theaters.

Love the preppy vibes here!

The vest will continue to be a strong item for fall.

If you're gonna do a cardi, it needs to be cropped with oversized buttons to avoid looking dated and "oldish."

The tweedy jacket is a classic. This color pop works with so many neutrals.
