A fashion editor’s favorite part about a season change? Obviously, the new arrivals.
Fall is bursting with exciting trends, and some of my choice retailers are already aligned with the most-anticipated ones, from pops of red to barn jackets to belt bags (and not the fanny pack kind). H&M, J.Crew, and Nordstrom have updated their sites, and let's just say there’s a lot to see (and add to your shopping cart).
It’s time to stock up on boots, cardigans, outerwear, jeans, and (of course) fun accessories. Think mohair knits, luxe carryalls, and wide-leg denim galore. As an avid scroller and professional shopper, I took the opportunity to comb through the best of this season’s new arrivals. Ahead, refresh your cold-weather wardrobe with 30 of fall's leading pieces.
