Can you believe it’s almost winter? I can’t for so many reasons—namely the fact that my closet is the furthest thing from prepared. Not only have I been slow to gather up my summer clothes and put them into storage, but I’ve been even slower to break out my cold-weather gear from last year or shop for anything new. Luckily, when I put my mind to it, that last part is pretty easy for me. After all, it is what I do for a living.
Most recently, I spent several hours combing through Nordstrom, Net-a-Porter, and Shopbop in order to single out my absolute-favorite picks from each site at the moment. As you can imagine, it’s a trove of winter-ready finds plus, some just-because pieces, too. If that sounds like just what you need (and even if it doesn’t), keep scrolling because I think you’re going to like what you see.
