If I had to categorize my closet, well over 50% would fall in the "basics" category. Yep, I live in basics because of their ease and versatility. Plus, a simple look is sometimes the chicest, and the basics allow you to play up the accessories. Nordstrom consistently stocks top-notch basics—especially those elevated styles that are fuss-free yet forward—and so many strong silhouettes are discounted during the Black Friday sale.
I scrolled through the Nordstrom Black Friday sale to create an edit of the best elevated basics that I think will sell out by the time Cyber Monday hits. Keep scrolling to shop popular cashmere sweaters, cool outerwear styles, designer jeans, and more.
