It might be controversial to admit this (especially as an editor), but sometimes, I get bored of fashion. Seeing clothes essentially 24/7, my "boredom" is really more a feeling of fatigue than anything else. And when this mood strikes, it's difficult to find pieces that actually thrill me. However, I definitely can't say that's true for the items below.

Even deep into my mental overload, these finds have managed to lift my spirits and make me feel excited about getting dressed again. I've begun imagining all of the quirky and cool ways I can style each piece, collecting mood boards to help along the way. If you're going through a similar rut, take a peek at the selection below—I promise they will make you feel something. Hopefully, you'll find some sartorial inspiration too. Keep scrolling to shop them all.

Fashion Market Editor

Indya Brown is a fashion editor, stylist, and writer living in Los Angeles. While going to school at Columbia University in New York City, she got her feet wet in the fashion industry interning at Elle magazine, Harper's Bazaar, and New York magazine's The Cut. After graduating in 2016, she joined The Cut as a fashion assistant, eventually working her way up to fashion editor. There, she worked on a multitude of projects, including styling inbook feature stories for New York magazine's print issue, writing and pitching market stories for The Cut, and serving as fashion lead for The Cut's branded content. While New York has been her home for over 10 years, she moved to Los Angeles in the midst of the pandemic in 2020 for a new chapter. Now she is a fashion market editor for Who What Wear, focusing on emerging designers, rising trends on and off the internet, interior design, and BIPOC creatives and brands. Aside from her duties as a fashion market editor, Brown is also a freelance stylist and writer, working on national print and video commercial campaigns for Sephora, The Independent, and Cadillac. Her bylines also include Harper's Bazaar, Vox, and The New York Times. But once the computer goes down and the emails turn off, she's likely eating her way through Koreatown, hunting down vintage furniture, scoping out new outrageous nail designs to try, or taking a hot cycling class.
