7 Spring Trends I've Already Spotted at Nordstrom

Unless you live somewhere with perfect weather, mid-January is the time when we all start getting pretty tired of winter and the layers upon layers of clothing that come along with it. But it's also the time when it's a little easier to see that light at the end of the long, cold tunnel. Something that helps that light to shine brighter is that retailers have already started stocking spring items, Nordstrom included.

As fashion editors, we always have the next season on the brain before most people do. In fact, we've been thinking about what we'll all be wearing this spring since September when brands began debuting their S/S 22 collections. We couldn't help but notice that Nordstrom is a great place to find some of them, and we're making it even easier for you. Below, scroll to shop some of the biggest spring trends that are hiding in plain sight at Nordstrom.
