We Shop for a Living—These Are the 23 Best Things We Bought This Month

It's no secret that we shop, like, a lot.

There's something about October that makes us want to shop even more than we already do. We're gearing up for fall, and with the arrival of a new season always comes droves of fresh inspiration and new ideas for what to wear and how to wear it. Not only are we making decisions about our day-to-day wardrobes, but we're also planning for the fall trends we want to tap into and invest in for the months to come. This all makes for the perfect storm of shopping, and our editors' order history can attest to it.

Among our editorial team, we've collectively reviewed thousands of fall's top shopping picks and have inevitably purchased a handful of the very best ones. Today, we're pulling the receipts and showing you what we've personally added to our closets this month along with some inspirational outfit photos to show how we're styling our new-to-us picks. There's no doubt our editors are a stylish bunch. (We look to each other's Instagrams for style ideas.) When we tell you these new buys are it, we think you'll agree.

Bella Hadid is a fan of these rubbery mules from the new Sorel and Proenza Schouler collaboration, and frankly, so am I. The chunky style may lean controversial as far as shoe trends go, but they're just about the most forward weather-proof shoe I can think of.
