I'll let you in on a little secret: When it comes to fall trends and cold-weather shopping, Free People and Anthropologie are the first sites I scroll through.
I'm a fashion editor who looks forward to fall shopping the most, and Anthropologie and Free People are my go-tos for boho-chic staples, offering an array of incredibly on-trend dresses, cold-weather-approved boots, and expensive-looking leather bags that carry the bulk of my wardrobe from September until December. Now that the heat appears to finally be lifting in New York City and days suddenly feel shorter, I headed to both retailers to check out their trendy offerings. To no one's surprise, I instantly fell in love.
Below, you'll find all the Free People and Anthropologie items I couldn't just gatekeep. After three hours of scrolling and over 50 items in my cart, these are the ones I've managed to narrow down to. Run—don't walk—before they sell out.
