Our Editors Share 20 September Must Haves, So Consider This Our Version of Back-to-School Shopping
As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.
Back to school, or not, September seems to elicit from within a real desire to dress the part. It's almost innate, our need to close the book on Summer style, to pack away the swimsuits, cover-ups, and less-than-sturdy footwear and get back to reality, so to speak. Our Fall dress code? Think sweaters made for snuggling up with a latte — but the kind that look just as good dressed up; chunky gold jewellery that elevates just about anything you pair with it (even a plain white t-shirt); and boots — plenty of boots.
Inside, our editors have culled their list of favourites. We may not be heading back to campus, but we'll be damned if we can't do a little of our own shopping to celebrate the start of a new season. Read on to shop right along with us, won't you?
Free People We The Free Psychedelic Turtleneck Top
""I've never been a huge fan of Fall dressing, but this Free People We The Free Psychedelic Turtleneck Top ($78) makes it a little better." - Nikita Ramsinghani, associate editor, Fashion.
Baublebar Twist Headband
"If I'm wearing a tall headband, it might as well be in a beautiful colour. I love the refreshing change this BaubleBar Twist Headband ($42) will bring to my look this Fall." — Sarah Wasilak, editor
Wilfred Selina Blazer
"Two things I love: figure-flattering blazers and chirpy shades of yellow. So, basically, this Wilfred Selina Blazer ($228) was made for me." — Laura Lajiness, Senior Editor, Fashion
Rebecca Taylor La Vie Tapered Jean
"The adult version of back-to-school shopping always includes a fabulous pair of jeans. Enter these Rebecca Taylor La Vie Tapered Jeans ($250). With a flattering high-rise and cropped ankle, they're my ideal Fall fit, with just a hint of that throwback '80s trend." — HWM
Paris Texas Snakeskin Effect Knee-High Boots
"Looking to start off a season on the right foot? Well, these Paris Texas Snakeskin Effect Knee-High Boots ($795) will do the trick." — NR
Aritzia Pearl Cardigan
"Who says cardigans have to be basic? This Aritzia Pearl Cardigan ($138) features the most delicate pearl buttons." - NR
Wandler Corsa Tote mini Croco Date
"Wandler has quickly made its way into the closets of supermodels like Gigi Hadid and hopefully mine next! This Wandler Corsa Tote Mini Croco Date ($621) comes in a lovely shade of brown." — NR
Jenny Bird Carter Choker
"I'm really into the chunky gold jewellery trend for Fall and plan to wear this chain-link Jenny Bird Carter Choker ($125) nonstop from the office to date night." — LL
Rhode Heidi Dress
"Transitional dresses are essential for bridging the gap from sweaty Summer days to chilly end-of-Summer nights. I imagine I'll wear this Rhode Heidi Dress ($425) with sandals and a long cardigan to ease into September, then embrace full-on-Fall with boots and a denim jacket when it finally cools down for good." — HWM
POPSUGAR Pointelle Sweater
"This POPSUGAR Pointelle Sweater ($37) has everything I look for in a great Fall sweater. It's comfy with a perfect fit, and looks great dressed down with jeans or throw over a slip dress. And, how sweet are these details?" — HWM
Khaite The Rosa Skirt
"Fall is all about longer hemlines when it comes to dresses and skirts — this pleated, drop-waist Khaite Rosa Skirt ($1,080) is a figure-flattering silhouette I'm planning to wear now with mules and swap for tall slouchy boots when the weather cools." — LL
Isabel Marant Cowboy Boots
"I'm not ready for Fall without a pair of boots to wear with everything. I love the heel height, the suede finish, and the easy vibe these Isabel Marant cowboy boots ($655) give off. They're trend-forward, but effortless, like everything Isabel Marant makes." — HWM
Coach Tabby Shoulder Bag
"I'm loving Coach's take on the shoulder bag this season, The Tabby 26 ($450) which comes in a wide variety of finishes and can even be customised. What better way to walk proudly into a new season?" — SW
Nanushka Wide Leg Satin Pants
"As much as I love denim, I still crave alternatives from time to time. The Fall is perfect for trying a new style, and I'm infatuated with the fit and feel of these Nanushka Marfa Wide Leg Satin Pants ($477), which look so cool with a fitted t-shirt and are particularly beautiful in the rose shade." – SW
A.M.G. Bomber
"I tend very feminine with my style and this oversize wool A.M.G. Bomber ($650) is the perfect juxtaposition with sweet pieces." — LL
Brinker & Eliza Love Knot Necklace
"My favourite Fall styling hack? Throwing on a chunky chain necklace with a cashmere sweater and jeans. Adding this Brinker & Eliza Love Knot Necklace ($138) to all of my regular Fall outfits will elevate everything." — HWM
Labucq Kati Boot
"Walkable boots are a Fall must in NYC and this croc-effect Labucq Kati Boot ($375) in optic white will be my go-to neutral in place of tan or black." — LL
Bottega Veneta Drop Bag
Like every fashion girl this season, I'm obsessed with all things Bottega Veneta and one of my biggest splurges this season is the Bottega Veneta Drop Bag ($1,950). I'll be wearing it with everything from black-and-white separates to printed dresses." — LL
Alanui Cardigan
"I'm already thinking about layering for the Fall season, and Alanui makes the most whimsical oversize cardigans to get the job done. To hang onto Summer for as long as I can, I'm trying to bring laid-back vibes with me in this Alanui Take It Easy Cardigan ($2,451)." — SW
