I’ve been a fan of Nordstrom Rack since I was about 16 years old, back when I had to convince my mom or sister to drive the 30 miles to our nearest outlet mall so I could scour the new finds. I still have some of the items from back then (a pink Skagen watch, a Charlotte Tarantola sequined cardigan), and fond memories of some of my first attempts at bargain shopping. My excitement was sparked again recently when I heard that they were going to be opening a NordRack about 3 miles from my house. I guess I wasn’t the only one looking forward to the new store, because about 600 other people had the same idea!
The lovely people working the “event” were kind enough to offer up some coffee and scones to keep everyone going.
Now, for all of the goodies I found! Disclaimer: I left the tags on just so you can see how fantastic the prices were 🙂
I’ve been a longtime fan of Dolce Vita footwear, and these snakeskin-print gold-tipped sandals called out to me, I didn’t even realize they were a size 7 1/2 until I got home, thankfully they are a perfect fit! And for $20, you can hardly find a better deal at Target, and these are much more well-made.
These guys I would consider my find of the trip.. They’re so comfortable and will actually allow my feet to stay cool at work this summer. They’re this gorgeous garnet shade that is unlike anything I’ve owned before.
It may not look like much here, but this top is super cute and drapey when on, with neon coral trim and a great graphic black and white print. And arm air vents for keeping cool 😉
I also fell in love with this print, with varied shades of roses that are so easy to pair with a statement necklace and skinny black pants or jeans or a black midi skirt and some delicate gold jewelry.
I also thought this piece would be pretty versatile, in terms of easy dressing up-and-down for different occasions.
I couldn’t get a decent shot of the seafoam/mint top shown at the bottom left, because it’s a very diaphanous and flowy crop top, but I will definitely be showing it in an OOTD soon! I’m mad about the fabric and color.
What stores are you most excited to see open in your area?
