I'm constantly on the hunt for the coolest pieces to land at retailers, and since I write the Luxury List column, that includes all things designer. Recently, I've been scouring the drops at Saks, Matches, and Fwrd, whose new arrivals have me thinking about which investment pieces will land in my closet—or, at least, at the top of my virtual wish list.
Right now, I have a number of luxe buys sitting in my cart. Since the New Year is about to arrive, I'm thinking about pieces that will carry me into 2023, from directional outerwear and boots to staples including elevated tees and everyday bags plus buzzy items including the chocolate-brown fringed Jonathan Simkhai coat and woven leather Bottega Veneta gloves Kendall Jenner recently wore during a trip to Aspen. Ahead, see all of the cool luxury buys that made the cut.

Very into chocolate brown right now.
Beautiful.

Saks

Interior is the brand I won't stop talking about.
Gorgeous.
The whipstitched details, though.
Just the right amount of sparkle.
Après-ski, anyone?
So sleek.
Tove does it again.
Matches
Our editor Anna LaPlaca was just messaging me about how she's seeing minimal sequins everywhere.
The bag of the season.
The color is perfection.
I would style this with sheer tights and pointed slingbacks.
I love this take on loafers.
A showstopper.
This looks so cozy.
I already know these are the next cult fashion buy.
Such a unique piece.
My sister and I won't stop texting about this bag.
