The 27 Most Expensive-Looking Accessories We Spotted On Sale at Nordstrom

I'm going to start this sale roundup with a confession: I'm probably one of the worst people to shop with IRL. I grew up in a family of non-shoppers and would literally have to beg my mom to take me to the mall on the weekends. It wasn't the nearly hour-long car drive, the massive crowds, or even the moment of anguish that comes with forgetting where we parked that made these trips to the mall few and far in between. Instead, I drove my shopping companions mad by usually returning home completely empty-handed. 

Now, you're probably reading this wondering why you should keep scrolling through an accessories story written by probably the worst shopper on staff at Who What Wear. This is a totally fair question. But, dear reader, you forgot to consider one important thing: It's the Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale, and yours truly is, in fact, an excellent shopper when it comes to scoring must-have items at the lowest prices. 

 As a thrifty teenager who wore a uniform or strict dress code from fifth to twelfth grade, my non-school wardrobe was rather limited, and accessories were really the only way to show off my emerging sense of style. With that in mind, I honed my eye for handbags, jewelry, and other statement-making pieces that would last for more than just a season or two. And it is with that keen sensibility that I eagerly dove into the accessories department at the Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale to unearth the most expensive-looking (but affordable) handbags under $250, jewelry under $100, and a few miscellaneous must-haves under $50. Even better? I didn't have to drag my family to the mall during the post-holiday rush—I now shop almost exclusively online, and along with my Who What Wear colleagues, can revel in the hunt without ever leaving the office. 

So, if you've come this far, please keep scrolling to see 27 of my favorite accessories at Nordstrom right now, and be sure to scoop them up while they're on sale through January 2. 

The snakeskin detail on this bucket bag makes it extra special. 
I have been eyeing this bag since I saw it in Boston on my boyfriend's college roommate's wife's arm this fall. Seriously!
I can think of a hundred other things to put in this crossbody other than binoculars—but those work, too. 
My new go-to bag for weddings. 
Doesn't this plum-colored leather look rich?
We're definitely still into the embossed crocodile trend. 
Coming in just under $250, this bag is the perfect winter white and will transition seamlessly into spring. 
The dark green leather makes this bag practically evergreen. 
We love this mock croc in navy blue. 
It's rare to see a gorgeous full-size bag from Rag & Bone for such a steal. 
This is the affordable-yet-chic everyday carryall you've been searching for.  
How elegant are these sparkly huggies? 
We're betting big on blue in 2020. 
Now, these are statement earrings.
Statement earrings, but make 'em sparkle. 
Mismatched earrings are a must. 
Instead of standing out, the initials on this simple bracelet are subtle enough to look like part of an abstract design. 
Chain link, pearl, and fob details makes this necklace pretty much perfect. 
If you're not ready to go all-in on the mismatched earring trend, this is a safe place to start. 
Perfect for pinkies everywhere. 
It's hard not to love a scarf that doubles as a blanket, am I right? 
Fair warning: Your roommate / sibling / significant other will try to steal this beanie. 
Faux croc in brown seems like a smart choice for a hair accessory. 
Found: Dream sunglasses for less than $35
This is one duffle we won't be embarrassed to schlep back to NYC. 
Face it: It's time for a new belt, and this one is timeless. 
Part of the J.Lo X Quay collab, these sunglasses will soon be your everyday go-to.
Winter is long; hats should be cute. 
Pearlized and purple make these barrettes a beautiful buy.  
The only thing better than looking at this tropical phone case every day will be flipping through photos from your next beach vacation—just wait. 
We love the western details on this buckle. 
Really, can you ever have too many blanket scarves? 
The shield shape makes these cat-eye sunnies ideal for snowy mountains and sandy beaches. 
This lux belt is basically the perfect wear-anywhere accessory. 
A neon hairclip demands attention. 
Fill this small pouch with all of your on-the-go essentials and switching purses will be a breeze.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
