I'm a VIP Stylist at Nordstrom—These Basics Are the Most Fashionable

Sandy Koszarek has a breadth of shopping and styling knowledge. After all, she is a VIP stylist at one of the top retailers out there—ahem, Nordstrom. Her day-to-day job consists of helping her clients explore their personal style by testing out and shopping the collections and brands available at Nordy. In fact, she recently shared the fall trends she’s been suggesting to her clients as they’ve been trying on various pieces. Next up, we thought there could be interest in learning about the staple basics she also recommends on a regular basis because of their fashionable and versatile nature.

She mentioned that there are so many great next-level basics she loves because they act as foundational pieces in her favorite looks that she styles. There are seven elevated basics, in particular, that she considers front-runners. Keep scrolling to uncover the pieces in question, along with outfit inspiration and a range of shopping recommendations. You just might find a fresh item or two to add to your wardrobe.

"I love the style and versatility of relaxed blazers. Try layering over a T-shirt or add a lightweight sweater for an elevated look."

"One of my favorite basics is a button-down blouse. It's classic and chic when styled with your favorite denim. Try the classic button-down but venture out and try an oversize style or one with a modern collar and sleeve detail too."

"As much as I like skinny jeans, I love the looser fit of high-waisted, straight-leg denim. This classic denim is easy to style with any boot, loafer, or retro sneaker."

"With fall weather here, I think about back-to-school shoes, and this season, it's all about chunky loafers. Try wearing a pair of sheer ankle socks for an update on a schoolyard classic."

"Fall is my favorite season because I get to wear cozy sweaters! I recommend wearing a cashmere or cable-knit sweater in a neutral palette to elevate your look."

"Everyone needs a denim alternative in their wardrobe. I recommend one that fits your current lifestyle. Try a trouser style, cropped flare, straight leg, or faux-leather jogger."

"When you are out for a long day, you need a handbag to carry more than just the essentials. I recommend taking a classic tote; it's structured and will hold all you need while still looking chic."

Next, check out more chic basics to consider.

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...
