My go-to's from COS straddle extremes: the most everyday basics AND standout design pieces. The button-ups and the tailored coats have thoughtful materials and construction that'll stay looking sharp wear after wear. The long-sleeve tees in modern variegated stripes? Love them as a quick update, and I would not spend more. Plus COS' quality for tees consistently delivers. That red coat is excellent for fall and will be that outfit-making star come spring.

True to size except the $50 crewneck, whose sleeves are short on me (I’m 5’7”). Same goes for the $80 cardigan. I still love them, just scrunch up the sleeves 🤎Cardigan | Sweaters | Cashmere | Jenni Kayne | Quince | Affordable Finds ✨

Wool dress pants from $139, all under 30% synthetic: Banana Republic and Argent at 98% wool, Theory and Prada at 100%, and Lilysilk’s wool-silk blend. Sizing: I wear a 26 in jeans, a 2 in Banana Republic and a 4 in Massimo Dutti.

Brooks Brothers on sale through 10/12! These blazers are key to Ralph Lauren's vision, and their texture makes them perfect for jeans (I avoid suit-type fine wools with jeans – they belong with dress pants or a more delicate bottom). My picks, all under 30% synthetic, picked for fiber and construction.

Chanel SS27, rebuilt from pieces that last and organized by look, in slide order. A few notes: COS checked skirt: size up. J.Crew Barn Jacket: I sized down to XS. Frame blouse: $100 off with code OCTSG. J.Crew's upgraded grade-A cashmere is new this fall, so I don't have longevity notes yet. I can share it feels a lot softer than last year's.

Chanel taught a master class in styling red. Mix your reds so it's dimensional, not matchy-matchy. Use different textures. Pair with khakis. The result is chic as ever, and it's testament to the timelessness of these accessories.

Chanel's upcoming spring collection showed a few styling ideas I'll wear now, for fall. Pastel adds a pop of romantic optimism to khakis, and the khakis ground the pastel so it looks sharp enough for any meeting. J.Crew Cosmo pants: I sized down to XS, and my jeans size is 26.

There's a reason The Row's barn jacket looks so good: it's modeled after J.Crew's time-tested classic. We know people who wear them. We've seen glimpses of it in pop culture. Yes, The Row does have crisper corners, but I'd rather save that precision for dressier pieces and go with the right balance of casual vs. precise. J.Crew, Uniqlo, COS, and Mango deliver for me. The Uniqlo jacket has smaller proportions, and the M worked for me better than the S. I sized down with J.Crew to XS.

Chanel's scarf adds red accents to khakis. I'm taking inspiration with red scarves, a red scarf sweater, and even expanding to brick red with Aritzia's excellent silk scarf. This scarf is heavier than my Hermès scarves. To keep it looking sophisticated, mix your reds (Chanel's belt is darker than the scarf) – don't match.

After comparing these sweaters in person, reviewing and wearing Quince for years, getting your feedback about Jenni Kayne, my conclusion is that they're comparable in terms of softness and wear. Jenni's sweaters have a more generous cut. Quince is still oversized and looks cool to me, and I prefer to save up for shoes rather than basics.

I wear the Quince cotton sweater this time of year. It's oversized but doesn't add bulk. I sized up for the cashmere tee – I usually wear a small, but mine's a medium. I shave my cashmere once a season, and it stays looking smooth after the shave better than when it was new. I wear the suede loafers a few times a week. Super comfortable because of the cushioned insole and smooth lining (I'm sensitive to thick seams and harsh edges, and these I wear without socks). I'll also include pieces I reviewed in the carousel below: the $225 wool-cashmere coat, the $350 camel hair coat, and the sweaters that stay smoother, plus the one silk blouse with a flat armhole seam. Skip the $175 Italian wool coat, the $50 crewneck, the baby cashmere, and the lace. I do enjoy the cashmere crewneck cardigan even though it’s the $50 sweater’s cousin – I scrunch up the sleeves, and it overall looks dainty on purpose. I de-pill once a season with an old school razor. Don’t use a cashmere comb – it made my pilling worse. SWEATERS IN POST: 1. Oversized cashmere sweater $120 - I think we’ve got another 1-2 years with these proportions. I do love it with a matching cashmere wrap 2. Cashmere tee and boxy sweater 3. Cotton boyfriend crew 4. Merino half zip 5. Cashmere crewneck cardigan

30% off for J.Crew Gold & cardmembers, and I'll keep you posted on more sales. Size down in Massimo Dutti if you're in the US - I'm 38.5 and get 38, which is a 39 Euro. The Quince Italian Suede Penny loafer is very comfortable, so I'm including its cousin with the tassel. I have the tassel loafers from Black Suede Studio, so it's a moment that I support. I'm also including a Stuart Weitzman loafer that's 33% off at the bottom.

Soft leather, thin soles, no hardware: the loafers and slippers I'm wearing all fall, plus animal print on a shape that fits the foot instead of ballooning, and boots that sit close to the leg. The tassel is the one moment I'd ride this season.

Uniqlo's cashmere resists pilling, J.Crew's is now Grade-A (incredibly soft; longevity to be seen), COS outclasses pricier knits with fewer styles, and Nordstrom's is thinner than Uniqlo's. N.Peal is a step up from the mall brands, and Johnston's of Elign is even more luxurious. Those are sweaters you buy for decades and pass on to the next generations. I'm 5'7", and I'm usually size S.

Both the denim shirt and the Sézane Chlo are fitted, and they layer without bulk under the arm. I'm size 2-4 and went for a 4 in both. The AYR jeans are TTS.

Sale runs 9/18 - 9/28. Free express shipping with $175+ with code BRSHIP. The Italian lightweight wool is the reason to shop this sale: a lapel that rolls, real cuff buttonholes, and a felt undercollar on the blazer, with the pants cut from the same cloth. The satin has enough heft to hang rather than cling; size down on the cowl-neck maxi and the merino maxi skirt if you're between sizes. 40% off friends & family 9/18 - 9/27.

I wear this cut a lot, from Gap's jeans (TTS) to these from Amo. Relaxed thigh for a modern ease, but enough definition to feel confident, beautiful, and comfortable on a date night. I'm wearing a pair of Prada 3" heels that are OOS, so I'm adding alternatives.
