I Exclusively Wear Skirts and Dresses—Here Are the Top Picks From the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

      As someone who enjoys wearing skirts and dresses throughout the year, I naturally prioritize them when I shop. I appreciate a good pair of Levi's or stylish capris, but honestly, my wardrobe has more maxis, midis, and minis than anything else. When the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale—the retailer's biggest fashion event—comes around each year, I immediately search for skirts and dresses. Currently, early access is available only to Nordstrom cardholders, with access levels based on annual spending: Icons can shop from July 8–11, Ambassadors from July 9–11, and Influencers from July 10–11. If you're not a cardholder, the sale opens to everyone on July 12. Keeping that in mind, I browsed through numerous product listings to find skirts and dresses worth checking out—from pleated styles to plaid prints.

      I'm a fan of knee-length pleated skirts.
