We like our summer essentials unfussy. Simple, classic pieces that have an elevated feel but don't overdo it. They keep us nice and cool even on the warmest days, and because of that, they're the first items we habitually reach for in the morning. Nordstrom's new arrivals section has a slew of summer-ready picks with all these promising qualities and more. We've listed some of our favorites below, including a chambray button-up shirt, wide-leg linen pants, and woven slide sandals that feel effortless. Keep scrolling to shop.
