NYC’s Nordstrom has a little bit of everything for everyone

You know the ones: those bedazzled blue satin heels Carrie Bradshaw made famous. Sitting there, front and center, they serve as a strategic reminder that New York department stores were once the stage of fantasy.
Of course, most New Yorkers knew this already, because most New Yorkers aren’t actually from New York. They grew up shopping at Nordstrom stores with their friends and family and are likely coming to the space with a built-in sense of nostalgia. They know, for example, that you can return basically anything — “even a Starbucks cup,” one friend joked — because the company’s customer service is so accommodating.

She’s based in Providence, she told me, but is a Saks regular whenever she visits New York.
