Nordstrom Rack Review {I love clothes}

I have been known to tell my children that Nordstrom is a holy place. I love it so very much. It has amazing clothing and beauty and the best customer service. I feel good inside of Nordstrom. Enter Nordstrom Rack. I shopped at Nordstrom Rack once when I was out west for a holiday and I loved it so much. It’s like Nordstrom only half off. Ohio has a store about 2 hours from me. I think it is safer that it is not actually located in Columbus.


For $200.00 I was able to score three outfits and a killer pair of shoes. I also got some tights and some new black leggings. Amazing. No?

My first outfit is a casual work outfit for me. I work from home, but I do have meetings and sometimes speak at events and conferences. I like the blouse and trouser jean look with smart shoes for a pulled together but totally comfortable look. These jeans were only $39.00. Take that Joe’s jeans or whatever is the high-priced skinny-girl denim of the month. The plus size rack had about 4 styles of jeans, and I was praying for a long and lean look like a trouser jean. I am so pleased with these.

My second outfit is a Calvin Klein tunic that seems to be just the look that I am trying to work with over the change of seasons -- a cinched waist to give me some curves. I like that it is lightweight and great with jeans or black trousers. I would wear this with a black skirt and funky shoes and head to dinner or a school function.

I had to snag a new fall dress. I love Max Studio. This is a rouched look that I will pair with tights {hello = $6.00 ones at Nordstrom Rack} and the killer chunky clogs I found. I love the Nordstrom Rack for shoe shopping too, as I have BIG feet and the store offers a massive selection of sizes 10 and up. It was pretty amazing for a big foot gal. There were rows and rows of size 12 and 13! I wear a 10.5 or 11 and I could have bought 100 pairs that I coveted. The Born Clogs that I picked are vintage-inspired and really comfortable. They were 70% off, and I got them for $30.00. They look great with dresses and pants.

I was able to find a simple cardigan for $9.00 in the clearance section. It is chic and will be perfect for layering. NINE dollars! I am a cardi girl but I like them to be thin and with good lines and some interesting details. This one is just perfect.

The store was a bit overwhelming in the Women’s section. Some racks were hard to rummage through as they were a bit full and messy, but I think it was just because it was busy and people were digging for bargains. I am not bothered by the hunt of shopping. I like to dig.


The plus size section needs to expand the jean and trouser selection. I felt there were too many blouses and not nearly enough pants, skirts, and dresses. I will say that most of the lines in the Women’s section went up to 14/16 or XL, so for me, I was able to find lots of choices. I feel if you wore higher than a size 18 it would be hard to find a lot of selection. But the news is that Nordstrom Rack’s plus-size selection gets even better starting September 15th! You can shop a better assortment of the season’s hottest styles in plus sizes.
In addition to a better selection at Rack stores that already offer plus,15 more Rack stores will carry plus-size apparel. Visit Nordstrom Rackto find a store near you.

The staff was helpful and courteous and I love that you can get alternations at Nordstrom Rack just like at Nordstrom. I would shop there so much if it was closer to my home. I had to turn my eyes from the coat section. I wanted so many things. And the handbags. Oh my.


I am losing weight, and I have been trying to hold off buying clothing, but the season change is going to make that difficult and I want to look better right now. I think this is a great shop to buy pieces all along the way to a fabulous wardrobe. I tried to invest in items that would work as I lost weight. I can belt and layer and work this all season long.
Someone told me to keep looking good on the way down and you will feel better about yourself during the journey. I agree. I feel like thanks to Nordstrom Rack I am able to rock out a little earthy boho mama look this fall. I feel good about it. Thanks Nordstrom Rack!
