As we all know by now, this fall is going to be weird, just as this spring and summer were. Even though fall is my favorite season to shop for, shopping is something I'll be doing less of. Fewer places to go means fewer outfit needs, but that doesn't mean I won't be buying anything.
This year especially, I've been preaching quality over quantity, and instead of filling my closet with lots of cheap, low-quality pieces that I'll probably only wear once, I'm investing my shopping budget in pieces I'll wear over and over and that are as versatile as can be.
I'm well aware that the word "practical" can make the average fashion girl cringe, but it's a great thing in this case. I'm talking about wearable, functional, comfortable items that are also stylish. The fact that these items made their way into my cart even when there's hardly anywhere to go this year means they must be special. Scroll to shop them along with me.
Substantial Loafers
An investment for sure, but not one that you'll regret saving up for.
Every one of our editors is obsessed with these, myself included.
Classic Denim
My idea of the perfect jeans.
I can always use a new pair of black skinny jeans.
In case you're in the market for a good pair of stretch jeans, I found 'em.
Functional Outerwear
I think about this coat a lot.
Now is the time to buy a camel coat (i.e. before they all sell out).
Everyday Sunglasses
I'm ready to return to classic shades after years of statement ones.
I love these subtlety retro frames.
Cashmere Sweaters
Brown is the big It color this fall, so I've been on the hunt for a cozy chocolate sweater.
I just added this to cart so quickly.
I buy at least one Everlane cashmere sweater every year.
Nice Masks
We're stuck with masks for awhile, so might as well get some nice ones.
I can't stop buying KES masks—they're so beautiful.
Flat Boots
Fancy Chelsea combat boots are something I think I'll wear even after the trend has peaked.
These are so sleek.
I love boots that are easy to walk in but will also make me taller.
Versatile Jewelry
Initial jewelry is something I'll never ever tire of.
Everyday Bag
I love an It bag that will never go out of style.
I'm a sucker for ruching.
Another season, another gorgeous Staud bag I want.
Wolford Bodysuits
Wolford bodysuits are worth the hype.
Just think of all the layering possibilities.
High-Quality Slippers
These remind me of teddy bears, which is a good thing.
The perfect remedy for those really cold mornings.
I'm ready for these to be permanently stuck to my feet.
Stylish Activewear
I actually just got these chocolate brown leggings and they are beautiful.
Did you know that Ugg makes apparel? Now you do.
For lounging or going.
