I saw this denim jacket from Loewe and stopped in my tracks — it’s the first item I’ve seen this summer that has made me feel even remotely interested in thinking beyond the present moment. It is such a splurge, but I feel like it would be the focal point of a cool weather wardrobe! Vibe for less with this, this, or this.
A few early predictions for the season ahead:
1) I think that the barrel/gaucho fit pants we all bought last year will remain on-trend. So pull out those Nili Lotan Shons (or, for those of us more petite, the Velvet x Graham and Spencer Brylies — TTS and ideal for petites), Citizens Gauchos, etc! I am drawn to these jeans from Nili Lotan, though I find this brand works better for taller Magpies, so will probably get the look for less with these Madewell darted barrel jeans (come in petite inseams). If those aren’t your speed, really love the wash and fit of these trouser-like SLVRLAKE crops.
2) I’m seeing a lot of polished gold hardware. This seems to be a continuation of the hardware-embellished sandals from Amanu, Loeffler Randall, etc that have been trending this summer. I especially like Savette’s treatment — the chic clasp on its drool-worthy pochettes — but you can also find in the form of buttons on blazers and jackets, chunky earrings, and more.
3) Lots of east-west bags, with the aforementioned Savette leading the pack with its it factor, and Longchamp’s $100 vanity-turned-crossbody pouches a solid buy for a look for less moment. This little bag from Bloomingdale’s house label, Aqua, is a solid way to nail the look at a great price, too.
4) Suede in general! Always big in fall, but I’m seeing lots of suede and corduroy trim and detail. Think these Freda Salvador loafers or this Bottega tote.
