These items caught my attention as I browsed Nordstrom’s Black Friday sales assortment. I have seen some of the picks in person, and fitted them onto clients. Some items are available in plus and petite sizes, and there are lots of colour options too.
- Bobeau Cold Shoulder Plissê Blouse: A boho blouse with structure on the upper torso is a rare find. Non-crease, and manageable cold shoulders. You can wear a regular bra and layer a jacket or coat over the top with ease. Might run a size big.
- Nic + Zoe Shooting Stars Cotton Sweater: A unique asymmetrical stripe to wear over bootcut jeans or trousers for a fresh look.
- Wayf Floral Print Bomber Jacket: Earthy Embroidered Bomber Fabness.
- Frances Valentine 'Belle' Pointy Toe Bootie (Women): I haven't tried these on so I can't vouch for their comfort first-hand, but they look soft and suited to low-volume feet and narrow ankles. Great heel height and fun maximal toe box.
- Kristen Blake Funnel Neck Wool Blend Coat (Regular & Petite): A very flattering coat style on a larger bust. Also works well on apple shapes and inverted triangles. Side entry pockets are fab.
- Free People Faux Leather Jacket: Mauve Faux Leather Jacket Fabness. Also available in cream and off-white.
- Lafayette 148 New York Pencil Skirt with Back Vent: A flattering pencil skirt for an hourglass figure. Glorious shade of chartreuse. Plenty of length for taller gals.
- McQ Alexander McQueen Ruffle Hem Lace Dress: Flapper lace frock for the straighter figure and longer neck. Fun worn as a tunic too.
- Nic + Zoe Grommet & Stud Detail Asymmetrical Skirt (Regular & Petite): An avant-garde skirt with subtle grommet detailing looks sufficiently polished to wear to the office. Good length.
- Stella McCartney Ruffle Hem Silk Crepe Blouse: Classic on the left, party on the right. Wooohoooo.
- Adrianna Papell Floral Embroidered Mesh Sheath Dress (Regular & Petite): A frock that looks even better on the body. Works well on both curvier and straighter figures. Not as short in person. Quite timeless and festive.
- Adrianna Papell Jersey Capelet Sheath Dress: An excellent silhouette for an inverted triangle. The capelet and V-neck soften a broad shoulder line.
- Fuzzi Rose Print Tulle Peplum Cardigan: A very fitted and pretty gauzy cardigan with divine peplum detailing. Try to get the underlayer for a matching twinset.
- 3.1 Phillip Lim Hand Knit Wool Blend Sweater: Polished Post Apocalyptic Fabness. It's a heavy knit so consider yourself warned. Layers well under a cape.
- Fuzzi Sheer Sleeve Print Tulle Top: Lightweight and arty. Works well on just about any body type if you can wear the neckline. It also works for a larger bust.
- Fuzzi Print Tulle Dress: Body-con frock for those who like to showcase their curves. Clingy, so consider yourself warned. Size up. Elegant length.
- Robert Clergerie Tolka Kiltie Sneaker (Women): Golf sneaks for those who like to wear black and grey. Works on high-volume feet.
- Ecco 'Sculpted 45' Wedge Bootie (Women): Casual, yet sleek and polished under bootcut trousers and jeans. Very comfortable and supportive. Read the rave reviews in the black colour option.
