Most Coveted is a shopping series sharing our editors’ curation of the must-know items they can’t stop thinking about.
Last week, NYC gave us a taste of fall, and the weather motivated me to narrow down the items I want to buy this season. I’m incredibly selective with trends—my closet space (and budget) only has so much room for new pieces. Even though it’s still August, I’m eager to invest in some of fall’s clear frontrunners. Sporty silhouettes, plaid, and suede are running rampant among the fashion set. Accessible pieces inspired by luxury brands like The Row and Bottega Veneta are at the top of my list, and if you have similar taste, I’ve got just the curation for you.
Pixie Market
Khaki Plaid Reversible Trench Coat
There’s a $3700 plaid trench coat on my fall wish list, but this purchase is more realistic (and just as cute).
Banana Republic
Vintage Cotton Crew-Neck T-Shirt
I can’t start a new season without a fresh white tee.
Banana Republic
High-Rise 90s Straight Jean
Most of my ’90s-inspired jeans are cropped at the ankle. I love that these are longer.
Adidas
Gazelle Lo Pro Shoes
These feel like the classic Gazelle’s fashionable older sister.
Heaven Mayhem
Esme Tortoise
Heaven Mayhem’s eyewear is so luxe for its price point.
Banana Republic
Lightweight Cashmere V-Neck Sweater
Little Lies
Plaid Printed Dress
There’s a lot of plaid in this roundup, but this $125 dress might be my favorite.
Steve Madden
Bowman Black Leather
This fall, I’m replacing my heeled booties with riding boots.
Here are the matching shorts. I know you want them.
Banana Republic
High-Rise Utility Barrel-Leg Pant
This is an excellent work pant.
Here’s a new flat shoe style I’d like to add to my rotation.
Banana Republic
Lightweight Cashmere Short-Sleeve Sweater Polo
Polos are everywhere, but this style is the most adorable.
Elims
The Hermosa Wide Denim
I love the vintage look of these jeans.
The fashion set is preparing to wear suede slippers all season.
Tony Bianco
Desiree Espresso Suede
Reformation
Avery Knit Top
The prettiest date-night top.
Elims
The Malibu Wide Denim
I’m always on the hunt for jeans that feel office appropriate.
Tony Bianco
Hailey Denim Suede
This blue suede is everything to me.
Vuori
Renew Trainer Shell
This year, sporty nylon jackets like this one might replace barn jackets.
Vuori
Allthefeels Triangle Bra
This plunge neckline is so flattering.
Vuori
Allthefeels Legging
If there’s a matching set, I’m buying it.
I can’t get enough of the brown and blue color combination.
Sporty, but not in a “I just came from the gym” type of way.
Another sporty fall essential.
I can confirm Vuori’s basics are the softest.
For errands, long flights, and working from home.
I have these lightweight sneakers in pink, but I’m eyeing this pair.
