If you ask my mom—who’s watched me since I was a little girl in her stroller sorting through items on a rack at GapKids—she’ll tell you her youngest child has always loved to shop. I love it so much, in fact, that I made a career out of it. For the last decade, I’ve shopped for a living, hand-selecting the very best of what’s available and sharing it with all of you, and my favorite time to do this passion of mine is in the fall, when brands release their most elite creations, from jackets to shoes. Autumn is my holiday season, and as such, I’ve spent the last few weeks scoping out the latest arrivals and picking out the most worthy buys.
Below is a curation of 35 items I’m backing for fall, from Gucci’s new It bag to the simple sandals I plan to wear to every event in 2027 (with sheer tights in the colder months and bare skin once it warms up again). Also included is the statement pinky ring I can’t stop thinking about, the jeans I keep getting asked about, and the boots I can confidently say are the most gorgeous pair I’ve ever seen—and I’ve tried on a lot of boots in my 30 years of life. Think of this list as a digital alternative to walking into a really cool boutique that only stocks winners, no duds. In this case, you don’t have to find street parking or scrounge up enough quarters to pay the meter. It’s all just a simple click away.
A Fashion Editor’s Fall Shopping List
Pixie Market
Ivory Cropped Cocoon Wool Sweater
Do I even have to explain why you need this sweater? The neckline alone should send it straight into your fall cart.
J.Crew
Natalia Pant in Velvet
The second it cools down, I immediately break out all my velvet pieces. I have tops, jackets, and skirts, but surprisingly, no trousers. These are giving Tom Ford–era Gucci vibes.
Madewell
The Greta Glove Flat
A subtle pop of color is always a good idea, and the little stitch on the vamp is very elevated.
My favorite bag of the season by a landslide.
Polo Ralph Lauren
Slim Fit Denim Shirt
I’m slowly replacing all my basic white button-down shirts with denim ones, and this one by Polo Ralph Lauren is my most-worn version so far in 2026.
A leather pencil skirt belongs in everyone’s fall wardrobe. I personally own two of them.
Jimmy Choo
Jenn Suede Slingback Sandals
Sometimes, the best sandals aren’t complicated.
Massimo Dutti
Long Flowing Trench Coat
A car coat looks just as refined with a skirt as it does with vintage jeans. I break mine out on every 50-degree day.
TIBI
4-Ply Silk Side Drape Cami
The back is where this top really shines. I just got one and am in love with it.
These jeans will make your legs look a million miles long. Trust me.
Reformation
Yoanna Flat Mule
The hype around these mules is very much deserved.
COS
Clean Cut Long-Sleeved T-Shirt
Navy corduroy? Count me in.
Massimo Dutti
Satin Scarf
For the person who wants a “do it all” accessory, you can wear this scarf in so many ways.
Dorsey
Petite Spencer Ring in Moissanite, Sterling Silver
My obsession with cocktail pinky rings continues.
DRAGON DIFFUSION
Santa Croce Small Tote
This color would look so gorgeous against a cream knit.
H&M
Double-Breasted Wool-Blend Coat
I’ve always loved the look of a peacoat in the fall and winter. It’s very Love Story (the movie, not the show).
Alfie
Gabi Chevron Cotton Midi Dress
This dress will get so much use in the months ahead. Pair it with tights for winter.
I think about these every single day. The green is gorgeous as well.
Ray-Ban
Classic Wayfarer Sunglasses
My forever-favorite sunglasses without the exorbitant price tag so many pairs come with.
Renggli
Silk Cashmere V-Neck Sweater
I already own this sweater in one color. This rich, mushroomy shade is next.
ZARA
Organza and Knit Midi Skirt
KALLMEYER
Magazine Patent-Leather Shoulder Bag
A bag you’ll carry at least once a week for the next decade.
COLLEEN ALLEN
High-Collar Velvet Raglan Coat
If I could only dress in Colleen Allen’s designs, I would.
CLARIS JEWELS
East West Oval Drop Earrings
Perfect, on-sale everyday earrings.
ZARA
100% Cotton Button-Up T-Shirt
The new crew: Henleys are in for fall.
KHAITE
Callum Mid-Rise Straight-Leg Jeans
Open Edit
Corina Slingback Pump
You won’t find burgundy heels this chic at this good a price anywhere else.
Posse
Florian Embroidered Cotton Velvet Top
The details on this top are stunning.
Alexis Bittar
Asterales 14k Gold-Plated Molten Stud Earrings
Simple studs to wear with everything.
MAISON MAGDALENA
Voluta Tote
LIBEROWE
Metallic Cropped Fringe Jacket
This jacket will solve all your holiday-season dressing woes.
Nordstrom
Shrunken Cashmere Crewneck Sweater
I buy most of my cashmere from Nordstrom because the quality is as impeccable as the price. These knits also make excellent holiday gifts!
You’ll never have to buy another pair of ankle boots ever.
Zw Collection
Jacquard Midi Coat
