Our spring social calendar is starting to fill up fast! There are plenty of weddings, soirées and brunches on the horizon, which means dress shopping is a top priority.
We always check Nordstrom when we want to find a special frock, but this time, we entered our shopping trip with a very specific lens. We’re looking for a better style, but we don’t want to wear this skirt once and then have it hang in our closet for months. With that in mind, we chose options that you can also dress up and wear during the day. Pair any of the styles below with your favorite white sneakers or simple sandals, and you’re good to go!
