I'm a Shopping Editor—12 Trendy Brands I'm Putting in My Cart from Nordstrom

      As an editor, one of the aspects I enjoy most about my role is highlighting emerging and independent brands. I've written about notable lines from the UK, Los Angeles, and Australia, which made me consider how this idea could also pertain to Nordstrom. While the retailer may be primarily recognized for its well-known brands, it has surprisingly become a dependable destination for discovering more niche labels as well. Nordstrom has positioned itself as a shopping hub for a diverse range of customers, ensuring that shoppers can find something that aligns with their personal style.

      Some of my own favorite local labels from New York include Araks, Cecilie Bahnsen, Coming of Age, Emily Dawn Long, Sandy Liang, Tory Burch, and Vaquera. From Los Angeles, brands like Dôen, Leset, and Staud stand out, alongside European favorites such as Conner Ives, Lié Studio, Loulou de Saison, and Paloma Wool. Below, you'll find some brands that are definitely worth checking out at Nordstrom.
