I Live in NYC—These Are the Under-$200 Summer Basics in My Nordstrom Cart

Just in time for the city’s heat wave, Nordstrom is making it even easier to shop for summer. A brand-new Nordstrom Local is opening in Williamsburg on June 26, alongside the West Village and Upper East Side stores. If you’re in NYC, that means having more access to quicker online pickups, easier returns, alterations, and even on-site clothing donations accepted for Housing Works.

As someone who already shops on Nordstrom’s site regularly, I’m excited to finally have a Brooklyn location. Until then, with the temperatures rising, I’ll be browsing online—and leaning into a more uniform approach to dressing: cotton skirts, tank tops, and pointelle sets.
