Staff Picks: New Fall Arrivals

I am sitting in a hotel in Park City, Utah, as I write this, and the temperature outside is 55 degrees. As much as this annoys my family members – since they want to be outside hiking or at the pool – it thrills me. I only wish I had packed more sweatshirts. These low temperatures make me even more eager for fall. Unpacking all the sweaters and coats right now is basically torture for me. I want to start wearing them right now! But September is always hot in the DMV, so I’ll have to (not-so-patiently) bide my time.

While our new arrivals include lots of cool-weather pieces, there are also plenty of buy-now-wear-now pieces that will transition perfectly when the temperatures finally drop. 

I asked everyone on my team to pick their favorite new fall arrival that can actually be worn now.  Okay, so maybe one of my picks (I had to do two because there is so much great stuff) is not really a wear-now piece, but I have been thinking about the cashmere varsity jacket from Allude since we ordered it back in February. The navy Ulla Johnson pants are an easy, wear-now-wear-later option. I feel like pants are having such a big moment right now, and we have so many fun selections. Look for a future Stylebook post on how to style the latest pant shapes and styles.
