Grab these 8 closet essentials on sale at Nordstrom this weekend — they’ll never go out of style, and you’ll wear them a ton

·3-min read

With rising prices and inflation, it can be hard to spend money on items deemed anything other than essential. With gas topping out at more than $6 per gallon in some places and food items like bacon ringing up for more than $10 a pack in certain areas, updating your closet can feel pretty low on the shopping priority list.

Here's a gentle reminder, though: If you're going outside, you need clothes to wear. That said, the clothes you invest in don't have to cost a fortune, and if you shop smart, they can last for many years.

If your closet isn't quite stocked with timeless pieces to wear season after season, there are some gems currently in the Nordstrom sale section that you'll want to grab before prices go back up. From soft and versatile tees to an iconic trench coat, the eight styles below are investment pieces that are affordably priced, so you can buy them guilt-free, knowing you'll actually wear them a ton.
