Affordable Nordstrom New Arrivals and Gift Ideas for the Holidays

I’m firmly on Team Christmas. If it jingles, twinkles, or has a reindeer on it, I’m wearing it. Joe rolls his eyes every year, but I don’t care; it makes me happy. Some folks think festive sweaters are childish or not exactly chic, but honestly, my inner Buddy the Elf wins out every time. Life’s too short not to wear a snowman sweater and spread a little Christmas cheer.

If you’re doing the same, I’ve rounded up some of Nordstrom’s new arrivals that are easy on the budget, festive, and still look amazing. These are cute, stylish clothing pieces that caught my eye for winter, plus a few giftable finds that would make anyone smile. Grab a cup of coffee and let’s do a little browsing together!

Nordstrom’s Newest Clothing Arrivals

This cheerful sweatshirt is such a fun way to add a little holiday spirit without going all out. It has that relaxed fit we all love, and it’s soft enough to wear all day. I like pieces that feel festive but still practical, and this one checks every box.

If you want something easy for holiday get-togethers, this velour midi dress is a great option. The short sleeves keep it comfortable in case you run warm, and the velour gives it that soft, dressed-up feel. You can wear it with heels for church or a dinner out, and it looks cute with boots for a more relaxed look.

CeCe always does the sweetest details, and this bow front sweater is no exception. It has a classic shape with just enough personality to feel special for the season. Pair it with jeans or a skirt for a look that feels pulled together without any effort.

These fleece-lined footless tights are a game-changer for cold-weather outfits. They keep you warm under dresses and skirts without adding bulk, and the footless style works with any shoe. They are perfect for holiday parties when you want to stay warm but still look dressed up!

A cozy lounge set is a must for this time of year, and this one is perfect for traveling, relaxing with family, or just staying comfortable at home. The hooded top and soft fabric make it a set you will want to curl up in. It also makes a great outfit for long road trips or early morning holiday prep.

This is such a versatile boot for winter, and it goes with just about everything. The style feels modern without being too trendy, and the heel height is comfortable for all-day wear. It works with jeans, dresses, and skirts, which makes it a great addition to your holiday wardrobe.

If you like a little sparkle, this embellished crewneck sweatshirt is a cute choice. It’s soft and comfortable like your favorite pullover, but the decorative details give it a festive touch. It’s an easy way to feel put together for casual holiday events.

This metallic pleated skirt instantly dresses up any outfit. It moves beautifully and works with everything from a simple sweater to a dressy blouse. Add heels or boots, and you have a holiday-ready outfit in seconds. If you want something that feels special without being complicated, this is it.

Nordstrom Gift Ideas

If you need a small gift that always gets a smile, this little COACH card holder is perfect. It’s slim, the leather feels soft, and it slips right into the smallest handbag. I love gifts that people can actually use, and this is one of those things everyone needs but rarely buys for themselves.

This palette is a lifesaver if you want your makeup done in about five minutes. Charlotte Tilbury does neutrals really well, and these shades all work together, so you don’t have to think too hard. It’s a great gift for daughters, sisters, or any friend who likes to keep things simple but still looks put together.

Little skin care sets are such fun gifts to give. This one has lots of mini L’Occitane products inside, so you can give the whole set to one person or split them up as stocking stuffers. Their hand creams are always a hit this time of year, and the packaging makes them feel extra special.

This scarf is the kind you grab for chilly days when you want to feel warm and cozy. It’s soft, it’s oversized, and the fringe gives it a fun winter look. It’s an easy gift because you don’t have to worry about sizing, and everyone can use another pretty scarf.

Bombas socks are the real deal, gurls. They’re soft, cushy, and they hold up wash after wash. This gift box makes it easy because it’s already packaged and ready to go. Socks may sound simple, but these are the kind people end up loving the most.

If you’re stuck on what to give, candles are always a safe bet. This little trio lets you try three holiday scents, and they smell amazing. The votive size is perfect for bathrooms or bedrooms and makes a lovely gift for neighbors, teachers, or anyone who loves a cozy home.
