How Does Nordstrom’s Style Help Service Work?

Nordstrom Virtual Styling Appointments

Nordstrom offers both in-store experiences and virtual help, namely via the brand’s website. But virtual stylists are your best option right now, as it’s safer, more intimate, and frankly, it’s just a really cool experience overall. Here’s how it works: First, you book a free appointment on the site to meet with a virtual stylist. At the designated time you connect with your personalized stylist through a 30-minute video chat to get one-on-one advice, fit tips, outfit recommendations, and to discuss all things fashion. During the appointment, you’ll also be asked to share a little about yourself like your preferences, sizes, and other needs. After the meeting is over, you’ll get a host of outfit and clothing ideas, which are just that, ideas. You are under no pressure to buy anything from your stylist.

Alternatively, if video chats and social calls aren’t your thing, don’t worry, there’s still a pretty cool service you can use to try out items before you buy them. It’s called the

Nordstrom Trunk Club

and it works similarly to the style service. You share a little about yourself in an exclusive style quiz, and with that information, a stylist puts together a personalized trunk of items. You can order as many trunks as you want, and there’s no subscription to pay. There is a $25 styling fee that goes towards the purchase of pieces in your trunk. When the trunk arrives, you can try everything on, see how it fits, and decide what you like, and what you don’t. If you like what they send, you can keep it, paying only for the items you want. Everything else is sent back, and shipping, returns, and exchanges are all free.

What Else Does Nordstrom Offer?

Nordstrom offers a whole lot more than virtual styling services, however. They will tailor items and make alterations, offer special occasion styling and in-store fittings, and even provide beauty and spa services like brow shaping, nail styling, skincare consultations, and makeup applications. Of course, you can also take advantage of the freebies, including free curbside pickup, free in-store pick up, free shipping, free returns, and free exchanges. That’s on top of the free styling help and beyond. At the risk of getting real repetitive with our words, there’s a lot to love about Nordstrom’s digital and virtual services, so don’t sleep on them!

There is Beauty in the Bleak for Private White V.C.
Celebrate the gray weather of Manchester

Legendary English artist L.S. Lowry had a particularly bleak outlook on his home country of England. While living and creating in Manchester, he watched men hurry home from work, hunched over to hide from the weather. While he continued to paint his vision of England, it became the center of his work. Private White V.C. is named after a World War I veteran awarded the Victoria Cross in 1917. They are known for their iconic outerwear, such as The Manchester Peacoat and The Ventile Mac. Their fall collection is a cross between these two English legends and pays homage to one of the darker aspects of Manchester—the Private White V.C. The Lowry Collection focuses on the drearier weather of the English city and finds beauty in the bleak by using the inspiration of Lowry's vision, the style, and the palette of the time.
Finding Beauty in the Bleak

“I’ve a one-track mind, sir. Poverty and gloom. Never a joyous picture of mine you’ll see. Always gloom. I never do a jolly picture.” These words from the artist himself show the image he has of his hometown of Manchester, England. And while it may sound depressing, the dreary part of the city is actually part of its charm. It offers a fantastic opportunity to wear stellar outerwear and seasonal offerings from Private White V.C. Some of the highlights include the Doleskin Revere Field Jacket, The Norfolk Walking Jacket, and the Casual Wax Jacket. Some of the knitwear worth checking out are Open Collar Cashmere Jumper and The Cashmere Submariner Rollneck.

It’s no secret the “Westerncore” trend has arrived and is here to stay. While the trend is inspired by Western wear, it doesn’t mean you necessarily need to wear cowboy chaps to achieve the look. One of the easiest ways to achieve this style is via cowboy boots. An easy piece to incorporate into your existing wardrobe, a pair of cowboy boots can be a subtle nod to Westerns without compromising your look. Cowboy boots also allow you to lean into the trend as much as you like. However, picking out the best cowboy boots for you can be challenging. Thankfully, these brands have some of the best cowboy boots to easily add to your wardrobe. Those looking to add flair to their closet will enjoy the range of cowboy boots available, with some donning high amounts of detail and others being much more subtle. Either way, there’s no wrong way of wearing the Western look, as it’s an easy trend you can add with just one item. 
Frye

For years Frye has been a standard in leather boots and their Western boot collection is no exception. Made of premium leather materials, Frye might not have a lengthy selection, but their options are all you need. Their Nash Deco Stitch and Grady Vintage Stitch boot designs exemplify how classic Western boots can be ornate and chic enough for all your looks. Frye also has four more boot designs that are much more subtle and minimalist in their details. In plain leather materials and simple silhouettes, these boots are more suited for those who want a boot that’s easier to blend into their daily wardrobes.
