Clothing:
BLANKNYC Faux Moto Jacket
BLANKNYC 'Easy Rider' Faux Leather Moto Jacket (Sizes XS-XL) , $65 (Was $98), Nordstrom Not much comes between me and my favorite leather jacket — it ties together every outfit I pair it with, from jeans and T-shirts to sundresses and overalls. They're that crucial to a closet. Get yours for a fraction of the price in pebbled faux leather and shiny hardware.
Topshop High Rise Skinny Jeans
Topshop 'Jamie' Ripped High Rise Skinny Jeans (Sizes 25-32) , $53 (Was $80), Nordstrom
Topshop is actually one of my favorite brands for jean shopping because, one, they're affordable (made even more so thanks to the sale), and two, they don't fit differently later on in the day (aka: stretch out). This pair contains just a little bit of elastane — and that keeps them comfy while still allowing them to hold their shape.

Shoes & Accessories:

Vince Camuto Cutout Booties
Vince Camuto 'Peera' Cutout Booties (Sizes 4-13) , $100 (Was $150), Nordstrom
These booties are the best of both worlds — the dressiness of a boot in front with the airy cutouts of a sandal in back. Grab it in black leather or gray suede, too!

Adidas 'Superstar' Sneakers
Adidas 'Superstar' Sneaker (Sizes 5-9) , $60 (Was $80), Nordstrom
Toss your heels aside and slip your feet into fashion's next staple shoe. Jeans, maxi dresses, shorts, and minis all get a touch of street edge when paired with these clean kicks.
