Everyone knows that Nordstrom is our home base for those pieces that anchor our wardrobes. I’m talking about the leggings we wear to every yoga class, the ankle boots that we’ve worn to death, and the tees and tanks we reach for on the regular. While no closet feels complete without these nonnegotiables (they’re called essentials for a reason), today, I need to divert your attention to the trendier pieces the retailer has on offer right now.

Every of-the-moment cutout, sumptuous knit set, and sleek leather piece I’ve come across lately is striking a chord with me in a way no plain basic ever could. Sorry, not sorry! These pieces are really satisfying my itch to load up on the key trends coming down the pipeline this spring, and since I know you’re curious to see what’s making my heart flutter a little extra, I compiled a list of the trendy Nordstrom shopping picks that are doing just that. Keep scrolling to see the coolest buys that are so good I wish I gatekeep them for myself (but I won’t).

This looks ways too cool to be as affordable as it is.

Eyeing BY FAR’s newest bag before it inevitably blows up.

I have a feeling this under-the-radar brand won’t stay that way for very long.

Did I just stumble across spring’s next It shoe?

Cool, trendy, and wearable.

When it has editor in the style name, you know it’s going to be good.

I haven’t seen any leather jackets in this color yet, but I’m so in love.

The matching pants are not even a question.

Drooling over this.

Dua Lipa loves this rising NY-based brand, and so do I.

Whimsical knits like this are on my radar for spring.

Nordstrom always has the best pieces from Sandy Liang.

I’m pretty sure these are the perfect loafers, period.

The prints from Afrm just keep getting better.

Gen Zers are salivating right now.

This sunglass shape honestly looks so designer.

An instant outfit-enhancer.

In a word, obsessed.

To me, you’re perfect.

These best-selling sandals are sold-out in every color except for black, so I’d suggest acting fast.

This ultimate trendy spring staple.

Everyone say hello to my dream bag.

If you haven’t acquired a leather trench yet, consider this your sign to do so.

The coolest white tank I think I’ve ever seen.

These are past the point of gatekeeping once Bella Hadid wore them, but you can’t blame me for trying.

Hand-drawn florals are a rising them for spring.

There’s no guarding Isa Boulder anymore, her designs are officially a fan favorite.

Oooh.

Trendy but ultimately wearable.

Padded jackets make everything cooler.

Snatch it up while you still can.

This makes the winter to spring transition so much more fun.

This bag feels forward but doesn’t cost it.

The color our editors can’t stop crushing on right now.

I have this and can confirm it’s the best hair clip for thick hair.

Up next: The Nordstrom launch Gen Z will go crazy for.
