Solid V-Neck Cashmere Sweater
One of my favorite Christmas gifts was a crew neck cashmere sweater in fuchsia. I've been wearing it constantly. Cashmere is timeless, it transcends seasons and can be dressed up or down. A v-neck is flattering on all body types. It will never go out of style. $50 is a bargain for a cashmere sweater!

Pleated Chiffon Maxi Skirt
When I first spied this sheer cobalt blue chiffon maxi months ago, I was smitten. As you know, my clothing budget is tight and $54 wasn't in the cards. On top of that, I couldn't decide between the blue and the black. I know that some of you ladies don't feel maxis flatter you. This semi sheer version could be your chance to change that way of thinking. The under skirt is knee length but the sheer overlay won't make a petite woman appear shorter and it's sexy. The micro pleats at the top of the skirt flatter a woman with curves. It could be dressed up with heels and dressed down with boots or flats. You could wear it now with a sweater or jacket and into the spring with a tee or a tank. When I realized it was now 50% off, I had to take the plunge.

Low Heeled Booties
I love my heels but it seems that my lower heel shoes get the most wear. I also love wedges because of their stability. A 3 inch wedge doesn't feel as high to me as a 3 inch stiletto. This winter I've been gravitating toward my booties. They're versatile and also stylish. They look fab with a pair of slacks or jeans and also great with a skirt or dress. Nordstrom is known for their shoe selection. These are both available in two colors. The Clarks booties come in sizes 4 - 12! They are a bit on the pricey side for sale shoes but they are leather and their understated, classic style means you will be able to wear them for many years.

Interesting Cuff Bracelet
A metal cuff in an interesting design can be worn with all types of outfits. It can dress up a tee and set off an LBD. The rose gold of this one is on trend but timeless (it also comes in silver). I love the curves and the diamond dust finish. For only $24.90, it's a great buy.

Leather Tote
Studs, buckles, sequins and embellishments are fun but there is something to be said for simplicity. A leather tote in taupe or black can be worn with everything in your wardrobe. It can go with you on your weekend errands, carry your laptop to work, and serve as your carry-on for a flight. This tote has classic lines and leather can last you a lifetime. It's a bargain for only $48.90. It's available in taupe and black.

All of these items are available from Nordstrom.com and you'll even get free shipping. You can also shop Nordstrom Rack online via the same site. I've already ordered the Pleated Chiffon Maxi in cobalt blue and black. I couldn't pass them up at $26.90 each. Two skirts for the price one cost originally. With a little searching you can find some great deals on items that you can wear for years to come. I may have to recheck my budget and do a little more shopping.
