Fall always brings a wave of “new,” but this season feels different. It’s less about chasing another round of trends, but rather shopping for pieces that strike the rare balance between fresh and lasting (my case in point, above, during NYFW!). ’s just-out is full of options that could easily carry me forward year after year: sharp tailoring that doubles as everyday uniform, that ground everything, that’s more investment than indulgence. I’ve been bookmarking the kind of staples I will still be reaching for years from now, which include these wedges that I spotted on my chicest friend in New York, this extra blouse in lieu a white button-down, and this statement-making fringed jacket. Shop them all .
