I recently shared a story about how (even though I'm the fashion editor) my mom sometimes knows what's chic before I do. She totally turned me onto the multicolored stripe tees that are everywhere. But yes, she also consistently comes to me for shopping direction. With the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale officially here, she asked for a highlight reel of the most stylish items I think she would like best.
Her style tends to lean toward the modern-classic side (same), so I made sure I sent her picks that fit within that aesthetic. I'm referring to versatile knits that she could style with jeans or midi skirts, flats to dress up or down, cool basics, and forward outerwear items to consider for fall (because, yes, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale features fall items already on sale).
Below you'll find the 10 pieces I sent to her, along with even more amazing pieces.

She's a huge fan of Staud's Tommy bags!
And also Barbour. I mean...
Such a modern classic.
I know she'll get a lot wear out of these flats.
I love the colors here.

Fun fact, a polo sweater is one of her staples.
Functional and chic.
