Here are a few items from the line that we're adding to our shopping cart.

The wait is (mostly) over: Jason Wu's more affordable exploration of his design aesthetic — namely, his Miss Wu for Nordstrom collection — is now online and available for preorder. Along with our complete lookbook inside, you can see exactly what Wu's self-described "more downtown, more relaxed attitude" is made of. While Wu's namesake collection caters to a more sophisticated trendsetter, who straddles the line between ladylike and subversive, this youthful — but still impeccably chic — lineup is its younger sister, a girlier representation with a mod-era feel. To celebrate the capsule's debut online, we've already picked out our favorite pieces right here. From a retro geometric-print shiftdress and a leather circle skirt to a cashmere lace sweater and a rich olive-hued trench coat, these pieces are bound to be Spring-transitional staples. As for the price range, it ranges from $195 for a necktie blouse to $795 for a leather biker jacket. Keep clicking for our shopping picks and the full Miss Wu for Nordstrom lookbook now.

Between Target and now Nordstrom, the CFDA has been getting a lot of mass-market love. Nordstrom has just announced that it has teamed up with the organization to create six pop-up shops to sell a lineup of curated Spring '13 clothing, shoes, and accessories from the 2012 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund finalists: Andrea Lieberman from A.L.C.; Greg Armas from Assembly New York; Sofia Sizzi from Giulietta; Justin Salguero, Daniel Silberman, and Alina Silberman from Illesteva; Jennifer Fisher; Jennifer Meyer; Max Osterweis and Erin Beatty from Suno; Greg Chait from The Elder Statesman; Tabitha Simmons; and Wes Gordon.
The pop-up shop collection will be available in February 2013 at six Nordstrom locations including Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles (The Grove), Chicago, Dallas (Northpark), and Treasure & Bond in NYC. The CFDA is making a big effort to support their up-and-coming designers, and we can't wait to shop this latest collaboration. Are you just as excited?

A luxe faux fur vest is a necessity in every Winter wardrobe. We've seen trendsetters like Nicole Richie, Rihanna, and Rachel Roy incorporate this furry layering pieces into their outfits — so we headed to Nordstrom at The Grove to style three different versions of the coveted-cool faux fur vest. Whether you prefer traditional, cropped, or colored, we have a vest for everyone in this installment of Currently Trending. On Allison: Theyskens Theory top, Proenza Schouler skirt, JewelMint necklace.
Stripes are a Summer staple, so we're always looking for ways to reinvent this classic pattern. Accordingly, we headed to Nordstrom in Santa Monica, and with a little inspiration from Olivia Palermo, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Taylor Swift, we created three outfits that will have you looking très chic all Summer long.
