Colored Denim (JBrand, $176) and Alexander Wang (Eugene, $795). I am keen to try some colored denim for Fall... Might start with a "safe" color like this cobalt blue. And it's been years and years since I invested in an "It Bag" as I generally stick to totes and older leather bags, but I can't get this bag off my mind... Good way to spend a piece of the annual bonus? Questionable...
Pullover Sweaters (Madewell, $98) and Waxed Cotton (Lands End Canvas, $180). Just bought this sweater from Madewell... It's too warm to wear it now but I think it will be a Fall staple. Slightly cropped, boxy fit. And I love a good waxed cotton jacket. This one has a very traditional feel with the plaid lining.
Suede Ankle Boots (Madewell, $131) and Chukka Boots (Eastland, $89). Last year I purchased the Rachel Comey Mars boot in tan and I LOVE them, but this year I am thinking I might need a black version as well. I like these suede ankle boots - they are sort of a cross between Rachel Comey and Isabel Marant. And I've nearly worn my Chloe Sevigny x Opening Ceremony x Bass ranger boots to death, these Eastland chukkas could help carry the load this year.
I just bought the aubergine pair from J Brand. So much for a safe colour. I'll let you know how it goes. I like the AW bag!
ReplyDeleteohhh how i love love love fall :)
ReplyDeleteI just ordered the j brands in a bunch of different colors, though I think the aubergine and the black cherry are my favorites, I also picked up the bright blue, mostly because it's on sale right now at nordstroms (and they just started free shipping, free returns). Also coveting hose exact same booties, which aren't available right now, but found another IM/Comey substitute in the DV Jamison, available in black and taupe. Just figured since I did the hours of research and you're interested in the same things I thought I'd pass it on. And yes, the A Wang bag is to die for. If I had a bonus, I'd seriously consider spending it that way. Happy fall shopping!

I love everything, especially the jacket. It looks perfect for all the rainy days here in Vancouver!
ReplyDeleteyay for fall and this delicious post! those blue pants are to die for and i have had that madewell sweater on my wishlist for ages!
ReplyDeleteHow comfy are the RC Mars boots? Want to buy but hesitant bc I'm not great with heels...
ReplyDeleteI'm loving a lot of what Madewell has right now too. I've never owned an "it" bag. This one is tempting.
ReplyDeletegreat choices. i've been crushing on some red/orange jeans but have yet to make the purchase. and yes that bag is a definite good use of your bonus!
ReplyDeleteLovvveeee the ranger boots! Totally under-used! Your blog is awesome!
ReplyDeletedefinitely thinking about the colored denim this fall too....it's like the early 90's when I wanted some purple jeans all over again!
ReplyDeleteLove that slouchy bag!

Mmmmmm...fall. And also, that bag looks oh so soft : )
ReplyDeletealso into the colored denim these days.
ReplyDeletei just got those jbrand jeans (in that bright blue, no less) and i highly recommend. so comfy and soft!
ReplyDeleteLove all of this. I've been debating on the aubergine pair, but this might have sold me.
ReplyDeletelove all your picks. especially the land's end jacket. i haven't looked at their stuff in so long - thanks for finding this!
ReplyDeleteThe blue pants are hot. The bag is so cute and I can already imagine being all warm and comfy in the sweater
ReplyDeleteLove the alex Wang "it bag" you selected! It's a beautiful color and understated at the same time. I feel like investing a bag is never worth a regret in any wish list. You carry it everyday!
ReplyDeleteI think I did it smart last year by stocking up on Madewell and Anthro sweaters during their end of season sales so now I'm all set for this fall/winter without my wallet taking a hit. That means more good deeds can be done for my Days of Deeds Project!
