The Last 9 Items I Recommended My Friends Should Buy

Those in my closest circle can attest to my round-the-clock sharing of great fashion finds. If you were to look at our group text chats, more often than not, you'll find me sending a screenshot of, or a link to, one of my latest discoveries (along with how I’d style it as well as notes on which friend I could see wearing the piece the most). If you’re curious about my recent finds, I’m digging into my recent texts to give you a glimpse at my current virtual cart this season.

With fall and winter style in mind, I’ve been deep diving into chic outerwear, cozy pieces with shearling details, standout leather finds like a long leather skirt, and even holiday party-ready picks. There are even year-round basics in the mix—hello, crisp blue button-downs. Below, peruse nine of my latest recommendations to buy now and wear for many seasons to come.

6. Black Leather Blazer

A leather blazer instantly elevates any outfit.

This under $100 leather blazer is super sleek.

I love the oversized fit of this leather jacket.

If you like to keep your sleeves rolled up, this leather option has ruched detailing.

7. Oversized Blue Button-Down Shirt

Reviewers say this style runs big, so make sure to size down.

Here is a more vibrant shirt that's under $50.

The roomy sleeves make this button-down look more fashion-forward.

8. Metallic Shoulder Bag

Hobo-style bags are having a major moment.

This shiny bag can liven any look. 

A chain-link strap gives this shoulder bag another trendy boost.

9. Black Open-Knit Dress

This can be worn as a beach coverup or over with party-ready accessories.

The one-shoulder style makes this dress even chicer.

Try black underwear to pull off the sheer black dress look.

The straps of this dress can be tied in a variety of ways.
