I've been thinking ahead to what I'll be shopping for the upcoming season just as the latest drops have started trickling into stores. The new arrivals have me mapping out my wardrobe for the months ahead and thinking carefully about which pieces deserve a spot in my closet. Right now, I'm inspired to add trend-forward pieces and build out classic staples in my closet, and my current shopping list reflects that.

Pieces such as elegant jackets, pointed slingback flats, statement earrings, and A-line skirts are on my radar. Suede bags and midi dresses have been introduced in fresh versions for the season, and items we haven't seen in a while, like '80s-inspired earrings, are making a big return. For the best new-season shopping finds, I made an edit of my top finds from Saks. Ahead, see every piece that has landed on my short list.
