I've Waited All Summer for Fall Arrivals—42 I'm Shopping Before Anyone Else
Me? I'm a fall girl through and through. While summer dressing can certainly be fun (sheer pieces, strappy little sandals, and emotive accessories were of a few of my favorites this year), I'd be lying if I said that I didn't look forward to fall shopping all summer long and, honestly, all year long. There's just something about fall shopping that feels magical. It brings me back to those back-to-school shopping days when I would spend hours at the mall immersed in the new arrivals, curating new outfits to wear and cooking up a whole new personal style vibe for who I wanted to become.
This season, that means tapping into some of the most exciting new fall trends to hit the market, like suede car coats, elegant flats, and quirky-cool pendant necklaces. The best part of fall shopping, though, is all the new categories you get to tap into with cooler weather on the horizon. Cool jackets, cozy sweaters, everyday ankle boots, and a fresh new-season color palette are back on the menu. I've waited months to shop fall arrivals, and now that they're here, I'm too eager to wait any longer. I'm not even waiting for the temperates to drop. Ahead, I'm sharing the 42 finds I'm most excited about and plan to shop before anyone else does.
I never considered how chic a pair of white loafers could be until I saw them in the J.Crew x Maryam Nassir Zadeh collaboration. Stock in that exact pair may be long gone, but I'm interested in trying a pair from Jamie Haller, especially since my favorite fashion Substackers have been singing the praises of this label.
Prepare yourself: Your social feeds are about to be flooded with built-in scarf jackets (and already are).
The jeans that had my DMs full.
How cute would this be with some bag charms to match?
