Over the past few weeks, temperatures in New York City have been steadily dropping, which can only mean one thing—it’s fall jacket season! Although I couldn’t be more excited, I’d be lying if I said I’m fully prepared for the chilly months ahead. Truth be told, my capsule wardrobe is lacking in the autumn outerwear department. So I’ve turned to Nordstrom’s Fall Sale to level up my assortment. And to no surprise, the retailer has exactly what I need.
While scouring Nordstrom’s site, I discovered a polished trench coat that will lend itself to days in the office, a sturdy denim jacket fit for casual coffee runs, and an edgy leather layer that will pair perfectly with my going-out outfits. The best part of all is that every single item that I found is priced under $195, so I won’t have to pay a fortune to stay warm in style.
