I’m my mom’s Personal Shopper and I do her hair in 10 Nordstrom styles

Summer is here, but my mother feels her summer wardrobe isn’t up to par. She sticks to t-shirt dresses and lightweight linen pants, but she always feels like she’s missing summer essentials. That’s where I come in: since I’m her personal shopper, I went to Nordstrom and, with her by my side, we created a summer capsule wardrobe with 10 pieces she can wear in any occasion. The best part is that Nordstrom is having its semi-annual sale and has been offering deep discounts on pieces from Madewell, Levi’s, Free People and more, up to 60% off.

Halogen Square Neck Tank Top

My mother already owns many basic tanks and wanted to try something different. I could easily imagine her adding the square neck halogen tank top to her rotation. It is available in black with white stripes and white with black stripes. It is made from a tight knitted fabric that hugs the shape of the body. Additionally, sizes range from XXS to XXL. There is a square neckline front and back, scooped armholes and the length stops at approximately hip length.

Levi’s Wedgie High Waisted Straight Jean

White jeans are a staple in my mom’s summer wardrobe, so of course we have the Levi’s Wedgie High Waisted Straight Jeans in White on her list. The high-waisted jean is available in sizes 23 to 32 and features a cropped, straight fit that hits mid-calf. They are made from 100% non-stretch cotton, have a classic button and zipper closure and large front and back pockets.

Madewell Ariana midi dress

My mom was looking to spruce up her dress collection with versatile styles that aren’t t-shirt dresses, so when we walked past Madewell’s Ariana Midi Dress, we knew it was an immediate add to cart. It is available in black, 50% off, and yellow, in sizes 00 to 16. The dress features a sleeveless V-neckline and ruching under the bust. It has a body-hugging fit that hits mid-calf and an easy-on design.
