Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.
If you ask someone what their favorite day of the week is, most people resort to a Friday or Sunday answer and follow up with a statement about relaxation or socialization. I, on the other hand, have a very simple response: payday. The day of the week doesn’t matter to me as long as I can carve out a couple of hours to reward myself after that direct deposit hits my account. So what do I do on the days leading up to payday? I scroll through Nordstrom’s New Arrivals in preparation for my splurge moment. This site has been my go-to for as long as I can remember, and the selection has only gotten bigger and better, giving me more of an excuse to blow my whole paycheck on the items in my cart. (Mom, if you’re reading this, I never actually spend my entire paycheck on clothing, but I totally considered it after seeing these spring items.) My scroll bar is microscopic, and my cart is filled with silhouettes that pack a mean punch, the ultimate closet staples, and the spring trends that you tried to ignore but simply couldn’t. If you’re ready for a spring refresh, just keep scrolling.
