LE CATCH

This pic does not do this sweater justice, but trust me (and my sis), it's most excellent. So excellent that after Coco wore it to a photo shoot yesterday, every female on set bought one by the end of the day, including the inimitably stylish fashion consultant and designer Blair Eadie. The reason: glinty metallic thread and a thick woven knit give this Anthropologie sweater a Chanel-like vibe. Another tip: size down for a more elegant fit (I bought a size small).

My friend just assumed my new corduroy blazer was expensive. As she stroked its plush, ribbed sleeve, I broke the news to her: "It's H&M." She was both shocked and giddy--and immediately pulled out her phone to order one. This topper is now my current favorite style hack: I throw it on with jeans or over a dress and, blammo, instant polish. Its structure and heft yield a luxurious aura to any outfit, particularly these by Mango, And Other Stories, and Kate Spade.

When Celine sent its first denim-on-denim look down its Spring 2020 runway in Paris last week, I interpreted it as a vivid harbinger for stylish outfits to come. Well, it's already arrived! None to soon, head-to-toe indigo has hit the streets of Paris, as evidenced here. Take note: jeans feature a new shoe-grazing length and straight-leg silhouette, like these by Slvrlake (I also love this wash), Moussy, Re/Done (also in this shade), and Grlfrnd. For denim shirts, the key is not too stiff and more p0lished than rugged. I'd go for these no-fail staples by Current/Elliot, Madewell, and H&M.

Shopbop strikes again, this time offering up thousands of eye-catching winter clothing at 40% off or more, including the cute Chinti and Parker statement sweater, below, these right-now spot-on Re/Done cargo pants, this fun sequin Ksenia Schnaider skirt, these winter-white Rag & Bone jeans, this getaway-ready Paige maxi, this Brixton floral-print, outfit-making bucket hat, and this Cleobella crochet bag. Shop it all here!

While the French runways are currently featuring next spring's trends--jungle prints! raffia! '80s prep! crochet!--the boulevards are brandishing the city's timelessly chic looks (i.e., ones to execute now). Merci, Paris, for the fashion reality check, which ranges from always-amazing leopard prints and snakeskins to the new everyday-wearable shoe-grazing jeans and bow-tie blouses. The only thing I can add to all this compelling visual content is to inform you that much of these looks are just now 15% off at Net-a-Porter with this special code through October 9. I'm talking this MICHAEL by Michael Kors dress, this Jason Wu polka dot blouse, these Goldsign jeans (immediately below), this Alexander Wang sweater set (similar to yellow one below), these Gucci loafters, this Theory trench, and this faux leather AWAKE skirt. See it all for yourself here.

An unusually rainy and cool Saturday has me reading this game-changer, listening to music like this, and mentally prepping for a soggy soccer game later, which somehow led me to researching chill-proof sweaters online. BINGO! I found a bounty, largely on Shopbop, which has extended its crazy sale I wrote about the other day. I'm thinking it might be wise to pounce for payback all winter long, especially with under $200 options like the C/MEO Collective, above, but in pink, this Khaite-like collared pullover by Moon River, this Line & Dot fringe jumper or this cable-knit one and this pompom embellished ASTR.
